A genuine opinion about Pondicherry University.

Placements: Placements are comparatively fewer than at other institutes. Placements are mostly available for PG courses. I guess there have been no placements for our course till now. For PG courses in our department, I guess placements are available. For UG, especially our course and B.Tech, no placements are there, I guess. Students get internships as a part of their syllabus. But even then, we have to find ourselves.

Infrastructure: The course/department has all facilities. Computer labs, library, and Wi-Fi are available. There are properly functioning classrooms. Smart boards and projectors are available in some classrooms. The hostel is okay. Three people stay in one room. Food quality is not that good in the mess. Canteens are available with a little good food. For medical facilities, a health centre is there with basic facilities. That's not up to the mark. For sports and games, all types of grounds are available.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified and helpful. Some are strict. Some are nice. Teaching quality is okayish. Some teach well. The course curriculum is not that relevant. Some papers are not at all relevant. Semester exams are easy. They are not that tough for our course and department, I guess. The pass percentage is high, I guess.

Other: I chose this course because I am a little tech freak, and I hope this has more opportunities in the future. If topics are changed and more relevant topics are added, the course would be better. There aren't many events here. But the campus is crowded, and socially we can connect more. There are more opportunities for extracurricular activities.

To enjoy college life, you may join here.

Placements: Compared with all the engineering colleges near Pondicherry and Tamil Nadu, our college gives better placement results than many other colleges. However, the overall placement result is only moderate. The college mainly aims to prepare students for TCS placements, as if it is the only company in the country. I think the placement support and preparation are poor due to a lack of updated knowledge about current industry requirements.

Infrastructure: There are three canteens and a food court. Students can also order food from nearby hotels using online food delivery apps.

Faculty: Teachers are more casual. They are not fear about portion completion, examinations, or students' performance. They do not share notes properly with students. If students ask for notes before exams, teachers usually share one or two downloaded notes just a few days before the exams in a careless manner.

Other: This is one campus with all the courses in the city of Pondicherry. It is well known and easily recognized by the people of Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry. Cultural events are conducted twice a year by inviting top celebrities in a grand manner. This campus is exclusively for Engineering and MCA courses, and there are two other branches of the college in Pondicherry offering other courses.
