Don Bosco College review.
Placements: 52 students were in my class, we are currently studying, but in the case of seniors, almost of them get placed. After master's we can be anything, like a data analyst, software engineer, etc. Many of the. Students go abroad for more studies and for work.
Infrastructure: In my department, there are many facilities. Mess is good, it's the food that is prepared there, everything is Kerala food, and like home prepared, so anyone from Kerala and anyone from any part of Kerala can simply adjust there.
Faculty: The teachers are well-educated and all of them are qualified with a Master's, some of them have done their Master's in their subjects. Semester exams are conducted by Calicut University. They are tough, but they can be passed. The pass percentage is above 70% at our Don Bosco College.

The mountains loved college.
Placements: Above 80% mark in the plus two classes was offered to my course. The highest package was 10 LPA, and the lowest was 5 LPA. Microsoft, HDFC Bank, and Federal Bank were the companies that offered jobs. Above 95% percent of students got an internship from my course. The top roles offered were Data Analyst and Software Developer.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are above average. The college had a common library which held all types of books and was very spacious so that all other department students could also use it. The food is also awesome, which changes the routine monthly, and we also had an annual sports meet.
Faculty: The teachers were very aweful that all of them cared like their own children. They gave us all types of priority to study well and pass the semester exams. The course curriculum is relevant. It makes the students ready for the industry. The semester exams are not as difficult as we think.

Absolutely satisfied because of the faculty and good placements.
Placements: Out of 60, there are 21 students in my class, with 2 late-entry students. For me, in my first year 71000 and 2nd year 3rd year 60000 and 4 th year 61000. The top companies provided are Infosys, Tech Mahindra, and Tata. Now I'm in my third year, and only 4,5 students are going to the internship, which was at NIT Calicut.
Infrastructure: There will be a lot of facilities in this college, including Wi-Fi connections, labs, classrooms, and libraries. Everything will not be much good, but it's not an issue. Some departments have the same labs for experiments. Actually, I'm not living in a hostel. I'm a day scholar, and one of my friends said the hostel facility is not bad, but there is a huge fee.
Faculty: Teaching quality is average. 1,2 faculty members are good at teaching, and they know how to convey the topics and how they can be easier. All teachers are helpful, and they will clear all of your doubts. Semester exams are not very difficult. We can easily crack it. Only by going through the previous year's question paper. Some of the students do not get the idea to crack it. That's the only problem.

College wise it is more than average colleges in Calicut.
Placements: Above 75% mark of students are placed in my college. ACCA and CA are roles offered. Above 85% of mark students have placements. Landmark and Cyber Park companies are the top companies that come to our college for recruitment. Above 80% of students got internships.
Infrastructure: We have Wi-Fi facility. Classrooms have 5 fans each and 5 tube lights. College has its own library. There is a canteen with good snacks. Bathroom facilities can be improved. Lift installation is on the way. We have computer labs and resting room if someone gets sick. Hot and cold water purifier is available in each department.
Faculty: Teaching quality differs from teacher to teacher. Some are very good at their teaching even if it's a tough subject but some lack the ability to control the classroom to make the students keep quiet. BBA does offer students a base for the industry. The exams are average to mid-tough. Pass percentage is above 35% in each subject.
Other: My course BBA allows me to choose various fields. To improve my course, some additional courses like BBA with aviation might be helpful. Taking BBA along with some other courses might be the best in my opinion. BBA provides many management fests and events.

BIAS absolutely satisfied with the course.
Placements: I have just started the Bachelor's degree, and it is a one-year program by Calicut University. In the fourth year, we will be having internships, and they will also provide placement. After a four-year program, the PG will be changed into a one-year program.
Infrastructure: About the course, I chose BCA because I am interested in coding and programming. There are lab assignments, and there are sports and activities. The hostel facilities are normal, but the food is not excellent or good. There is no neatness in the hostel.
Faculty: Some of the subject teachers are helpful, and they try their best to get a good mark. The coming exam is our first semester exam. 64% is the pass mark for the first semester. Teachers are qualified and knowledgeable. Teachers are very friendly and active in addressing all the problems.

Placements: No students were placed from our college through the college placement cell. Some got internships in a few companies with potential skills and good marks, like 90% and above students. The top roles offered are software development and Data Science analysis.
Infrastructure: The college doesn't have a hostel yet. They say it will come or open a hostel within this year. Now, students are staying in private hostel rooms. Also, most of them are day scholars in this college, so they don't use hostel facilities. Also, most of them, 90% students, are day scholars.
Faculty: The college faculty is very good and disciplined, and knowledgeable teachers and their support make students happy. Also, the principal is a very kind-hearted person who gives us programs, etc. The BCA semester is very difficult, and the fee is also high compared to other departments.
