    Great faculty members and facilities but considering placements very low.
    Placements: There are low placements. They are not offering placements as well so I think if that one thing is added to this, it would be the best place to pursue a degree and PG. They started to provide more courses and facilities. All equipment for the study is perfect.
    Infrastructure: Hostels provide great facilities. There are good coats, tables, and shelves for each student. Each student can use that. There are no timing restrictions as well. Students can relax. Around 3,2, and 1 sharing room is available.
    Faculty: We have well-educated faculty members. They fix the correct order of exams. We have a well-arranged and good marking system. They conduct seminars, presentations, two internal tests, and semester exams. This is the order. They give more practical assignments as well to improve our skills.
    Other: The best thing about this course is that we can learn the basics to best.

    Satisfied with the campus life because of different people and programs.
    Placements: About 80% of students are placed in our course, including the integrated students. It is an art subject, so the placements are rare, but they offer many seminars and other facilities here. Internships are numerous, and every week we get notification about internships to our university mail ID.
    Infrastructure: Departments have all facilities. All the buildings, even if it is a hostel or any department, have Wi-Fi connection available. And classrooms are mainly smart classrooms. Hostels are several stories high and also have the facilities of lifts. Almost 24-hour reading room and library are also available here.
    Faculty: Teachers are well educated and have many years of experience. Semester exams are actually simple and syllabus-based; almost all students will be passed out without arrears even though the attendance percentage is strict for writing exams. It is about 75%.
    Other: For pursuing a postgraduate degree in South India in history, also among central universities, Pondicherry University is the best. Students from almost all states are studying here. Also, programs are there for diverse cultures.

    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.

    Satisfied because of faculty/ There were no campus placement for our course.
    Placements: There is no campus placement for this course. However, some students cracked the UGC NET exams after graduation. Some students are also preparing for UPSC, SSC, and RRB exams in their free time. Assistant Professor is the top role for the department's students after qualifying for the NET.
    Infrastructure: The facilities at this college are good. The hostel is open 24/7, and the department has a good library. The Wi-Fi is just average, and the mess food is very cheap. But the college has a top-quality stadium for cricket and football, and an indoor stadium for badminton, basketball, and volleyball.
    Faculty: Some of the teachers were helpful, but some were not qualified or knowledgeable. The semester exams were simple, and the pass percentage was high. This gave me more time to focus on other entrance exams. The course curriculum was adequate but not specialized in any section of history.
    Other: The campus life is very good. There will be various events representing different communities and occasions. Pondicherry University is an absolute cultural hub for everyone.

    Campus life is too good. There is no restriction on hostel timing.
    Placements: There is no campus placement, but some students cracked the UGC NET exams during their post-graduation. Some students are also preparing for UPSC, SSC, and RRB in their free time, as class hours are very few. Assistant professor is the top role for the department's students after qualifying for the NET.
    Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi quality is just average. The department has a good library. The classrooms are crowded, but the department is about to move to a new building. The hostel is open 24/7 and has good facilities. The quality of the mess food is low. There are sports stadiums for various kinds of sports where we can develop your athletic abilities.
    Faculty: The semester exams were simple, and the pass percentage was high. This gave me more time to focus on other entrance exams or competitive exams. Some teachers and scholars were highly experienced, while others were not. The course curriculum was okay, but it was not specialized in any section of history like JNU and other central universities.
    Other: I really enjoyed the campus life at Pondicherry University. There were always a variety of events to choose from, representing different communities and occasions. The university is an absolute cultural hub for everyone, and there were no restrictions on hostel timing.

    Pondicherry University with only vibe.
    Placements: Very few students get placed through the cell. The university seems to be more interested in selling placement services than actually getting students placed. And the packages offered to students are very low. In my course, there was no placement at all.
    Infrastructure: The new block for the department of management studies is already built, but the students are still in the old SJ building. The Wi-Fi connection is too poor, and the classrooms are not wide enough. The library is not open 24 hours, and the hostels and mess food are not good. The medical facility is also very poor.
    Faculty: The syllabus and course structure are outdated. A student with the right caliber can teach themselves the material. The entire syllabus is a rehash of what we studied in the past 15 years. There's nothing new. The semester exams are not difficult. They're too easy for someone who knows the subject. The teachers dislike it when we question them.
    Other: I chose this course because I wanted to learn more about the subject and to secure a bright future. However, I wish the university would improve the hostel and medical facilities, and provide a good syllabus.
