Happening campus life with good teachers. Wonderful experience. It's 100% recommended.

Placements: For placement, companies like Amazon and other overseas companies come to campus. Important thing is teachers are very much involved in process and guide you through it actively. Almost 80% of students get placement. For reast of them, teachers give recommendations.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure of hostel is very good, with a lift. Rooms are airy and bright. It's a little hot in Pondicherry, which is a slight issue, but other than that, it's good. Sanitation is in our own hands. Washrooms are a bit dirty by the end of the day, but each morning, cleaning ladies clean them.

Faculty: Brilliant resources and past-year papers are all provided by teachers as well as seniors. Most of your paper is set by the PYQs, which turn out to be a great help. Teachers are good and they help them throughout. Passing percentage is 50%, and teachers are generous in marking.

Other: For my course, I love French, which is a little personal, but apart from that, campus life is very happening. There is no curfew time for hostels or campus, and campus is huge. Almost all festivals are celebrated with great zeal.

The classroom experience is disastrous, but the campus experience is beautiful.

Placements: Placements opportunities in our university for French are quite low as it is a central university, but they can easily tie-up with MNCs and schools for wider opportunities. Out of 62 students, only 12 students got placed. Considering the average eligible candidates, the university can tie-up with MNCs.

Infrastructure: Quality of food is 95% good, and the quantity is 100% good. Staying in the hostel is 45% good. Hostel buildings are about to collapse, and if a tsunami wave strikes, hostels will fall. Cleanliness and hygiene are not much cared for by the workers. Bathroom doors can be replaced with proper closure.

Faculty: Faculty members are very poor, and they don't deserve to be a teacher. They have doctorates. Only 1 of them has the eligibility to be a professor.

Infrastructure: The university is vast, and most of the buildings are far. Hence the college bus is the common source of transportation to and from the departments. They charge the fee for the bus if you are travelling from Pondicherry to the university. Food available in the canteen and the hostel mess is hygienic and freshly prepared mostly. Hostels are provided for boys and girls individually. The university also has a gym for both boys and girls individually, and there is also a medical centre.

Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified with doctorates in the course which they handle. Their experience in teaching is highly qualified. The course covers all the branches of translation and interpretation of the language, i.e., journalistic translation, scientific and technical translation, legal translation, etc.

Other: Many big events are not conducted here. Festivals such as Pongal and Onam are celebrated within the department buildings. Every student is provided with students' Wi-Fi since most of the sim card networks don't work inside the campus due to a jammer used nearby.
