Offered by Dr. MGR - Janaki College of Arts and Science for Women

One of the best colleges.

Placements: 43% of students were placed. 53 students studied in our course, and around 5 of them got placed. The highest average package is 1.5 LPA, and the lowest is 1 LPA. Infosys, Wipro, IBM. In 2022, we won't get internships from companies. We researched and joined Vedha Technologies for an internship and completed a P2P project.

Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are not available; guests are not allowed to use Wi-Fi; labs are neat and well-maintained; classrooms are average; they often use projectors for taking classes; the auditorium is good; the canteen is highly spacious, but foods are not that good; and college campuses have the largest area.

Faculty: In our department, some teachers are quite strict and not friendly with students. Compared to other departments, our department needs to be more impressive. Teaching methods need to improve. Some teachers took classes without joy or interest, while some other teachers are energetic, and their classes have been very interesting. Nowadays, computer technology is everywhere, so learning computer science will be very helpful in the future, and we can easily get jobs. Semester exams are good; some papers look difficult, and the pass percentage will be 40%.

Other: Nowadays, computers and technology play an important role, so I hope this course will be helpful in the future. Computer science can be a good major because graduates are often in demand across sectors. This course has the potential to earn higher than average salaries. Frequent practical classes are needed, and the portions should be more understandable. Codes should have to be attached to books. The college excels at organizing events and inter-college cultural activities. Management will plan events and festivals for any occasion, as well as offer a variety of soft skill programs. It's a women's-only college, with more than 2000 students studying at our college. I'm passed out in 2021, and I heard so many things have improved.
