My unforgettable days at Pondicherry University .
Placements: University does not provide any campus placement. Course structure and curriculum is job oriented so getting job won't be a great task. Even there are only few job opportunities such as geophysicist, all the jobs are high paying. ONGC, indian oil corporation are the major government institutions recruiting geophysicists. The recruitments are mainly based on GATE exam score.
Infrastructure: Department is well-equipped with advanced lab facilities and 24 hour accessibility. Department have its own magnetometer for magnetic survey, which is highly expensive and not available at all institutions . University provides hostel for all students at reasonable price (1000 for hostel per year and mess at a rate of 72 per day). New hostels have good facilities while some old hostel lacks in good infrastructure. No timing restrictions is there in the hostel.
Faculty: Course is highly job oriented. Course is structured in a manner in which theoretical knowledge is incorporated with field studies. Syllabus is very convenient which is not so hard but covers all portions for all the competitive exams. Sem exams are not so hard (some hard papers are also there).
Other: Campus life is so fabulous. Different events will be conducted by different departments and organisations in each week. Campus is 24 hour accessible . No timing restrictions at all (for boys and girls).
