Review of Pondicherry University.
Placements: Placements depend on every department. MBA, statistics, and maths have better scope for placements compared to other departments. For science departments, you will get placements from coaching institutes. Our faculty members will help you to get placed.
Infrastructure: Our college has a good hostel. The food served in the mess is not good. Buildings are under construction. There is a shortage of hostels. From the next year, all students will get hostels. Our college has a health center with a very low quality of doctors and services. Our college provides a good library, a reading room, and a good lab for the science department.
Faculty: You have to learn by yourself. You will get just formal support. Our faculty members come and show presentations and go. The syllabus is high. It has difficult question papers.
Other: Many cultural events are held throughout the year in our college.
