Nice college, I liked it and a little bit disappointed.
Placements: Our institute had a placement cell. If you had any doubts about placement, you could also visit the placement cell. From the second year onwards, placement cell will train you for placement. Top companies like Accenture, Cognizant, etc., often come to our institute. The highest package was 25 LPA, and the lowest package was around 5 LPA.
Infrastructure: We had separate blocks for different courses and departments. We had 4 seminar halls, an auditorium, conference hall, and 3 libraries. There were bus facilities for students, canteen, bookshop, and emergency room. There were around 20-30 security members. I chose the park at MITS Chitoor near NPN block. Our institute had a library in NPN block, which was open 24X&. A class had a capacity of 80 students.
Faculty: Teachers were skilled and experienced. Very few of them were Ph.D. holders. They often use blackboard and PPT. They were always available for the students. For every 10-15 students, one faculty member was available although our classes run until 5.00 PM. Faculty members were available till 6.00 PM. Many faculty members were from other states who were highly qualified and hold M.Tech or Ph.D. Very few faculty members were very friendly and approachable.
Other: No one says that we were good in the company, every senior was sad and upset.

Environmental science at Pondicherry University.
Placements: Our class strength is 45, placements are very bad in the department, you can say no placements at all for our department. Roads in the university are bad, also the transportation in the university in the middle is also miserable but overall the university is good.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good in the university. It's very aesthetic, lab facilities are available, but pigments are not appropriately maintained. Wi-Fi is available, but the speed is not good. The hostel is provided for everyone the facilities are good but the food quality is not good.
Faculty: Teachers are qualified. Most of the teachers have Ph.D. and they are on to research. Exams are conducted every semester. Exams are easy to score and the department helps with various competitive exams, and other national-level exams. It's the best place to increase knowledge.
Other: I want to explore the environment of science because it is a well-known field and Pondicherry University provides the best faculty members and study materials. Events are happening in the even semesters so many extracurricular activities are provided at the university.

Faculty members are great, and the teaching is good. The campus is under CCTV surveillance.
Placements: Campus selection was conducted by Zifo, Accenture, Federal Bank, and ESAF Bank. Applicants were required to have no arrears. They were selected after an aptitude test, group discussion, and interview. Out of 18 students from our class, 5 were selected for Zifo, 4 for Accenture, and 1 for Federal Bank, while the selection process for ESAF Bank was still ongoing.
Infrastructure: The hostel facilities were average. The Department of Social Welfare ran a boys' hostel on the campus, and the best part was that free lodging and boarding were provided to EWS, OBC, and MBC students. The working women's hostel and women's hostel for SC/ST students were situated near the institution.
Faculty: If there was a need for improvement, it was to get as much practical work done as possible. Also, I kept in mind that not every student was the same.
Other: I have always given a high place to curiosity. So it would not be a big deal that I took this course. One thing you learn in life or a course is to never stop questioning.

A great college with good infrastructure and campus.
Placements: The placement ratio is quite average in our university compared to bigger institutions. We have a placement cell in our university that helps by contacting companies to visit us and often conducts placement drives, especially for final-year students. Institutions like Allen, along with banking companies like HDFC, etc. The package ranges from 7 LPA to 15 LPA. Even though the placements are average compared to other institutions, they are quite impressive for freshers to receive a reasonable amount.
Infrastructure: Hostels here are well-equipped. We can get a spacious room with triple sharing, along with cupboards, a cot, a study table, and a chair. There are 2 hostels for UG and first-year PG boys, 4 for Ph.D. and second-year PG boys, and 7 hostels for girls, located 800 meters away from the boys' hostels. The mess food is average. Hostels don't have any in and out timings, while mess timings are 7:30 to 9:30 AM for breakfast, 12:30 to 2:30 PM for lunch, and 7:30 to 9:30 PM for dinner. I personally feel very comfortable.
Faculty: Faculty members who are teaching us are very experienced. The professors, along with the HOD, have their doctorates and post-doctorate degrees, having done extensive research in their respective fields. This course curriculum is relevant, and it enhances my skills both practically and theoretically. Our semester-end exams are moderately tough, and the pass percentage is 75%.
Other: I have chosen the course Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. As we all know, it is a good course and will play an important role in the upcoming days as we progress in the development of science. I have chosen this department for the same reason. My course is perfectly designed to increase our knowledge. We can enjoy events and fests frequently, along with discussion programs, quiz competitions, and workshops in various departments. Finally, my experience is one that cannot be expressed in words rather, one should personally experience it by coming to this university.

Absolutely satisfied with facilities and infrastructure.
Placements: A good percentage of students got placed in the M.Sc. Mathematics course because it was a popular course at the college. Some local companies came to offer placements and job opportunities to the students. They also provided good packages, around 10 to 15 LPA.
Infrastructure: The department facilities and infrastructure were superb because most needed facilities were provided to students. Also, if anyone had a personal choice for food, they could get it prepared in the canteen, which was a good point. The food was also very hygienic and clean.
Faculty: Teachers were knowledgeable and highly qualified in their subjects. They also provided daily practice question papers because I was in the Mathematics course. The course curriculum was ready and relevant to the industry. The exams were not very tough. I scored a 9 CGPA in the semester exams.
Other: The campus was good, but sometimes there was too much crowd, which made it uncomfortable.
