Field explorations are conducted by collecting funds from UGC.
Placements: Probably 120 to 140 seats were for all the postgraduate courses. The chances for students from postgraduate courses to get placed in campus drives fell between 20% and 40%. To avoid unnecessary tension, the placement in-charge was given to Infinity Consultancy Services to help students get placed at various corporates relevant to their studies.
Infrastructure: Spot admissions were in the month of June for all courses. There were separate cubicles for everything, like searching, laboratories, and staff. The ground was maintained with a good track to run. Most of the sports events were conducted here.
Faculty: Professors were experts in their areas of study. They were well-educated. They were frequently involved in the research of various projects developed by the passed-out students, helping them with full interest. Professors gave importance and weightage to exam papers. While theoretical content was given lower importance than research interests.

Review of St. Aloysius College.
Placements: The college provides a good platform for placing students in reputed companies. There is a separate placement cell in the college that looks after placement-related work. Various companies come to the college and conduct interviews. Many students are selected for jobs as well as internships. Companies like TCS, Infosys, Deloitte, Amazon, Flipkart, and Wipro visit the campus. The average package was 3-6 LPA. The highest package was around 24–28 LPA. It depends on the student's experience and knowledge. Companies make offers based on interviews.
Infrastructure: The hostel facilities of the college are good. The hostel is built inside the college campus and shares the same boundary walls. Security is maintained throughout the time. Food is available at all times. The food is always fresh, healthy, and very tasty. All students are given many facilities and resources to perform better. Wi-Fi service on the hostel campus is very good. Practical knowledge is also provided. However, adding more industry-oriented projects and practical training would make it even better. All teachers are highly qualified and doctorate holders.
Faculty: The frequency and timing of exams are excellent. The course curriculum is designed to make students understand the needs, requirements, and demands of the industry. Students are given all sorts of training and resources so that they can gain the best knowledge and education. They are also given many practical assignments so that they can understand the course in detail.
Other: I love animals, which is why I chose the course. There are good laboratory experiments that provide real-world applications. There should be less spoon-feeding in the course.

My experience at NBS - Naipunnya Business School.
Placements: There were good placements and job opportunities in my college. The college placement cell was very up-to-date and very active. They knew everything about the latest trends and understood what skills were required in the industry. Students had to possess those skills. There were lots of companies that came to my college and hired students for various roles. Companies like TCS, Infosys, Deloitte, Amazon, Wipro, etc. visited the campus and offered an average package ranging from 3–4.5 LPA. The highest package ranged from 18–22 LPA. Companies also conducted interviews and practical tests for the selection of students.
Infrastructure: The hostel facility was good. The food quality was also hygienic and tasty. The rooms were available on the basis of both sharing and separate occupancy, and the hostel charges were affordable, with the mess having separate charges. The whole campus and hostel were Wi-Fi enabled and were very secure.
Faculty: Faculty members here were very knowledgeable, highly reputed, and highly qualified from different prestigious universities. Every faculty member was a master in their subject. They held a Ph.D. from reputed universities. They were keen to share their knowledge with us. They were always comfortable to approach whenever we were in doubt or had any queries. They were also very friendly. The semester examination system was followed. We had semester exams consisting of an end-semester exam of 60 marks and mid-semester exams of 20 marks. There were also marks for assignments and attendance. The level of the exams was moderate to easy. The course began with the basics of business management and business functions. It involved all the basic aspects of management.

My experience at Christ College, Irinjalakuda.
Placements: Placement opportunities were available and were quite nice. Internship fairs were held regularly. The college had a properly functioning placement cell that organized regular seminars and guest lectures to give students direction about the scope of fields to pursue. Companies like Infosys, Whirlpool, Cisco, Wipro, etc. came and offered an average package range of 3-4.5 LPA. The highest package was 22-35 LPA, depending on students' experience and knowledge. Companies offered packages to students and conducted interview sessions and practical tests for selection. Internships were provided by the college to give students on-ground experience and knowledge.
Infrastructure: The best facility of the college was that everything was in proper condition. Hostel facilities were excellent. Rooms were limited. Mess food was good enough. Good quality and hygiene were maintained in the food served in the hostel mess. However, at times, the variety was less, and there was a 24-hour water supply in the hostel.
Faculty: The college faculty was really talented. They had great experience in their respective fields. Some also held Ph.D. degrees. They helped students by sharing their life experiences and great examples. This made the subjects more interesting and helpful for students.

M.Sc. Statistics course with peak career options.
Placements: The career options for the course are available at a peak rate, but mostly students are not interested in picking the course in large numbers. On our campus, our core companies like Clinfinite Solutions, Entri, Kantar, Red FM, and Nova Enterprises offer jobs in various roles. The college also offers promising placements for all the courses and making it possible up to the maximum level.
Faculty: If you have good scores along with interest in the area of mathematics, you are requested to join the course, otherwise don't join, because the core subjects are too tough combined with programming, and you must study well even to pass. Teachers are very dedicated to teaching because every single lesson is for exams.
Other: The admission for all the courses closes by the end of June. The very lowest fee structure would be fixed by the college when compared with other private organisations in Kerala. Activities like chaos, fights, and bunking classes are seen in the college while the whole college was busy conducting college events.
