Value for money and beautiful campus.
Placements: Almost all the students get placement from this college, and many good companies come to this college for placements like Wipro, Infosys, Deloitte, Ujjivan Bank, Federal Bank, Tech Mahindra, and more. The college's average package is also good, which is 10 Lacs.
Infrastructure: The campus is so beautiful, and Wi-Fi is available across the campus. You will get good library facilities, and the classrooms are also good. The mess, canteen, medical, and sports and games facilities are available here. You will get an individual room in the hostel.
Faculty: The faculty and curriculum are good. This college follows a trimester system, which means you will have six terms across PGDM. For exams, there will be mid-term and end-term exams for each term. There is a credit system here for the courses, such as 1, 2, or 3 credits for the courses.

I am somewhat satisfied but not with the food.
Placements: About 90% of the students were placed. Others were either not eligible for sitting in campus placements as of low marks or opted out for other reasons. The highest package last year was 12 LPA, an average of 7.5 LPA, and a minimum of 6 LPA. The top recruiter was Infosys. An internship is provided in ICICI bank as a line manager.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is the biggest problem on campus. There are a lot of restrictions related to the network and they don't provide Wi-Fi at all. The hostel room is provided one per person, 8x10 ft. room with one almira and study table. They did not provide a washing machine, you have to wash your clothes on your own.
Faculty: Teachers are good, with good knowledge. Teaching quality is also good. Teachers elaborate on the concepts and try to make us understand. The course curriculum is relevant. Exams are like whatever you study, questions don't come according to that. The exams are held every 3 months, 6 semesters in 2 years. It is tough.
Other: Due to placements, I chose this college. If they provide some flexibility like living outside the hostel as per your choice. Learning options like studying from home would be good. We have a freshers party, toastmaster, and Dharmasthala temple visit. The strength of the batch is 180, and connectivity is a major concern here. They do not provide Wi-Fi and lots of trees are there on the campus, so the mobile network is also extremely poor.

The courses are refreshed every batch and are extremely well-suited for the evolving business environment. The exams for the trimesters are conducted as midterms and endterms; quizzes and class participation are also valued.
Other: I chose this course because I aspire to become a manager. The college student clubs conduct various events for inter- and intra-college activities.

Placements: I am currently in the first year of the PGDM course. Around 95% of our seniors got placed. The average salary package offered to them is around 7-8 LPA. Deloitte, Infosys, etc., are top recruiting companies for our seniors. Around 95% of the students got an internship from our batch in companies like Apollo, Job Kart, Outlook, Samocha, Simplus, Tenhard India, Farmdeva, Hedge, Deloitte India, Beyond Brain, Discover Dollar, ESAF Bank, etc. Top roles offered are in business development, finance, human resource, business development and operations, sales and marketing, digital marketing, market research, business analyst, consulting, project management, etc.
Infrastructure: There are excellent facilities and infrastructure for our course. Wi-Fi is available in the main administrative area, including classrooms, amphitheater, labs and many others. Wi-Fi is also available in hostel premises and rooms. There is a required number of fully air-conditioned labs and classrooms. There is a three-floor library with a reading area for students on the third floor. All types of course books, magazines, novels, newspapers, etc., are available. Hostel rooms are spacious enough for one person with facilities such as almirah, table, chair, bed with pillow, curtains, mirror and windows. There is a common washroom in the corridor, which is shared with 4-5 students. The taste of the food in the mess and canteen is good. Mostly South Indian food is available, and 3 times meals are provided in a day. There are good medical facilities. There is a huge basketball court and a separate indoor court for badminton, table tennis, etc. There are two separate gyms for boys and girls.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and have great knowledge in their area of teaching. They are highly qualified and have great teaching experience. The quality of teaching is very effective, and they make the class interactive and lively. The course curriculum is surely relevant. It is updated to the latest industry trends, and it makes students industry-ready. The course includes all sorts of real-time examples so that students can get an idea about the real and practical world beforehand only.
Other: I have chosen this course because I wanted to gain true knowledge of how corporates work, and I was keenly interested in the corporate world. The best thing about this course is it makes you ready to face the real challenges of the corporate world, and it gives you a clear idea of it. In our course, apart from everyday lectures related to the course outline, there should be seminars and workshops every once a week to gain more practical experience. Many events are held on the campus like a farewell party, fresher's party, cultural events, events related to academics, etc. The college celebrates most of the festivals on the campus. The crowd on the campus consists of professionally behaved students who have a goal and aim. The campus is in the vicinity of Chamundi Hills, and the campus is connected closely with the main city. There are a lot of extracurricular activities on the campus, such as tournaments, fests, cultural events, etc.
