This university is improving placement in the technology field, there are many international MOUs.

Faculty: All faculty members are doctoral degree holders and have extensive knowledge in their field. Faculty members are friendly, and they help with hackathons and many other competitions. For B.Tech + MBA, the curriculum is designed by TCS, and it's good. In the curriculum, we have internship opportunities, and after completing the internship, we get 10 credits. Semester exams are moderate, and many students get 9.5+ CGPA. There is a 75% attendance mandatory requirement.

Great infrastructure, peaceful environment, diverse exposure, and moderate placement opportunities.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is not too tough, but they teach linearly. According to me, it's perfect. The semester exams are not too difficult. Mainly, the exams are fixed so that everyone can answer the questions, meaning the paper is between normal and tough. There is a 99% passing percentage. 99% passing percentage.

Good university, great campus life, honest work, hard for placements, but have time to explore.

Faculty: Teaching is good. If we pay attention, the teacher will care about us. They do help us in gaining knowledge and exploring lots of things. The course curriculum is relevant, like every other engineering college, but we do have a choice-based credit system (CBCS). Semesters are moderate to easy, till now, everyone has passed in the 1st year except 1. The overall pass percentage of the whole college is 85-90%.

Best campus life, but attendance is an issue, and overall, exams are easy. You can pass easily.

Faculty: Examinations are easy, by the way. The faculty is good, but some of the faculty can be hectic. They pressure students for attendance. Some teachers are so good that they will support your startup idea, and the HOD of this department is literally the coolest guy. Most teachers are good, but the main issue is attendance.

During the course, students are dissatisfied with teaching & developing skills, and are lacking.

Faculty: Few teachers are really helpful, qualified & knowledgeable. Relevant course only. The exam is a little difficult with 70% pass rate in our batch. Slightly tough questions and you won't pass in model exams, and the monthly unit test just gets low marks, even toppers get just a pass.

It is good for placements. 100 percent of students get placed in CTS, TCS, etc.

Faculty: Faculty members are very friendly. They are qualified and knowledgeable in SMVEC. They conduct industrial visits for first-year students. Monthly, they conduct the CAT test to improve students' knowledge. The pass percentage is above 95 percent in my college. The main focus of teachers is on technical knowledge development in students.

BOOBion to study to make the world yours with intelligence and knowledge.

Faculty: Teachers are more helpful and friendly in teaching and practical activities. They are eager to guide us and show us a good path, in which we participated with confidence and won many prizes. The course is relevant and prepares students for real-world scenarios, which are more relevant to our daily lives.

It is not highly recommended.

Faculty: Faculty members are okay. Most of them have good communication and knowledge related to the course. Some teachers do not even know how to pronounce perfect, and they say furfect. Staff members say we will be friendly with students, but I suggest students do not believe them, as they won't. Only a few of them are friendly.

Good central university, nice location.

Faculty: The M.Sc. in Physics course is awesome at this university. Faculty members are very friendly, and we can ask about any problem. I chose this course because I like physics very much. In this course, the faculty-to-student ratio is around 1:5. Most of the faculty members hold great positions in their research work. Some of them have post-doctorates from very good universities around the world.

Pondicherry University is gorgeous.

Faculty: The faculty members teach the curriculum in an understandable manner that stays within the time frame of the semester. While the exams are relatively easy, they are given that there is a proper understanding of the concept. The questions asked are from the overall concepts taught and are asked in such a way to understand the level of concept understanding of the student.

Great place to study, but still, there is way more that can be improved.

Faculty: Teachers here are well-educated and experienced. But the curriculum designed does not develop students' skills. Rather, they are mostly book-oriented. Exams are conducted here are moderate. Not tough at all. Not very easy either. In our batch, probably all the students have passed.

Best for students who like the B.Tech and make connections with different countries students.

Faculty: The teachers are well educated from top IITs, NITs, and IISc, which makes all the students feel proud to get education from all good, qualified teachers. From my perspective, the course curriculum is good enough to get into the industry after graduation, but students' effort is very much needed to do their best to get an internship, and they should be extroverted and should attend all workshops. Coming to semester exams, it is divided into 60-40, in which 40 is internals, and 60 is externals. In...

It is a nice place to build our career.

Faculty: Some faculty members are really good, and some of them are not. Semester exams are quite moderate. The course curriculum makes us know about what we have to study in this course within 4 years and gives us a clear idea to go and build our future in the respective fields.
