Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good. The campus is outstanding. Classrooms are spacious and digitally updated. Wi-Fi all over the campus with CCTV security. Hostels are good, they are normally 3-seated or 4-seated. The hostel canteen is average. There are different grounds for different sports, and there are different clubs present.

Faculty: Faculty members are good, they are highly educated and experienced. They are all fine teachers all over India. The course curriculum is good, it makes us ready to explore a new world. There are two semesters in a year, and each semester has two sessions. In the final year, there is a journal presentation, and an internship is compulsory.

Very good central university.

Placements: Placements at Pondicherry University, students become eligible for campus placements from 3rd semester. Companies like TCS, Infosys, and Wipro visited the campus to offer jobs in software development and testing. The highest package was around 4 LPA - 6 LPA. 70-80% of students got placed. After completing my degree, I plan to secure a good job in it.

Infrastructure: Library here was some of the best collections, you could find, they had all types of genres. They also provided e-services. They had enough facilities in the classroom for teaching. They had smart boards and benches. There was still a need for improvement in the classroom. There was both outdoor stadium and an indoor stadium. There were hostels for boys and girls inside the college. Mostly hostels were 3 seated. Wi-Fi was available all over the campus with CCTV security.

Faculty: Faculty members were good. They were highly educated and experienced. As it was a central university, most faculty members had done their Ph.D. from top most colleges. Teachers had chosen very nice lies, and they had tried to improve us in a way that was beautiful and clear. The students were almost over 60. The term exam was very difficult because it came during this corona period, and it was a bit difficult for us to study. We could not do it at that particular time. There were two semesters in a year.

M.B.A in Banking Technology - Batch of 2021

3Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Unique course all over India.

Placements: There was a good placement for students as almost 80 to 90 students from 160 students got placements in different sectors for master of business administration. Average placement package was around 6 LPA. But this year very less banks and companies came to select students. A famous bank came to the university, and rejected all applications of the banking technology students. Even banking technology students had no preference for bank jobs. The highest package was 13 LPA. Only 10% of the students from the department were placed.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure was good there as some building was newly made, and some were old so it will be average in infrastructure. Hostels were good enough to live. Bathroom was cleaned every day. There was no water shortage for toilets use but sometimes many of water purifiers stop working, and guards there do many good work in girls hostel and boys hostel as well. There were good library facilities, and lots of book collections were available in the university library. Classrooms were well maintained, and the technology was adopted for teaching students which was outstanding.

Faculty: In my course MBA, there were many faculty members who provided us with very good learning. Every faculty had its own role in developing students, and it would be good for study at an affordable fee and structure of classes was very well. It was a unique course, only Pondicherry University provided this MBA banking technology course across the country. But the course was not good for the career because basic MBA subjects were missing in this course.

Very good college. Foreign students are here.

Placements: Zoho offers internships in our college with a stipend of Rs. 15000 per month. Projects include software development in leading languages. Based on the intern's performance, the company will recruit. TCS, Zoho, HCL, Infosys, Wipro, and many companies recruit from this college. The highest package will be 8 Lacs per annum, and the lowest will be below 1 Lacs. About 90% of students got placements.

Infrastructure: The hostels are good. In the first year, the hostels will be good, but in the second year, some hostels will be bad. Every year, they renovated 2 hostels. Wi-Fi all over the campus with CCTV security. But in some cases, labs are not that well-equipped, which is a key backlog for students' academic activity. In many departments, lab facilities are compromises. Classrooms are average.

Faculty: No scarcity of professors here. Academically, it's good, but it's being degraded when compared to past track records. And no significant developments inside campus as all main executive posts are being run by incharges, which need to be replaced by regular office bearers.

Puducherry Technological University.

Placements: The average package is about 6 LPA, but the highest can be up to 18-20 LPA, and you also get an internship in big companies like Qualcomm and more. The rest is up to you, the harder you work, the more you will get. The T&P cell helps you get a job.

Infrastructure: Hostel life is very good. The food is a little bit average because most of the dishes are south indian, but the taste is very decent and much better than the other college hostel and mess. You can request the menu change as the menu is decided by the students only.

Faculty: Faculty, curriculum, and exams are very good. Some of the faculty are non-cooperative, but the rest are all very good, very helpful, and supportive. They help you in all ways. Exam questions are very easy, but you still have to study very well, and the exams are conducted very strictly.

Absolutely satisfied because of campus life, good faculties, and good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: Talking about placements on this campus, it's very few. Less than 50% of students are getting placed. Top recruiting companies are multinational companies. Only a lesser percentage. Top roles offered are finance analyst and finance manager.

Infrastructure: Our department is the biggest in the university. Our department has good infrastructure, good facilities, and an atmosphere. We have campus Wi-Fi all over the department. We also have two 24-hour working libraries. A total of 20 hostels are on this campus. For boys and girls, separate hostels with good infrastructure and atmosphere.

Faculty: Teachers in our department are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is great. The interactions with teachers are very comfortable and friendly. The course curriculum is, of course, relevant. In my opinion, the semester exams are quite easy.
