M.Sc. in Applied Geology - Batch of 2022

4Placements5Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Good infrastructure and good lab? To research.

Placements: There are so many companies visiting our campus like Zscaler, Walmart, Accenture, PayPal, Zoho, TCS, Cognizant, etc. The average salary of our college is 6 LPA and the biggest is 35 LPA. Out of 100 percent of students, 60-70 percent of students only get placements.

Infrastructure: In our Sastra Deemed University, we have many clubs created by CSE and ECE students that are organized with the help of faculty members. They will conduct workshops and coding competitions and they keep so many competitions. A good gym and a good canteen; there are so many canteens in our college and we will go to so many canteens. If you ask our students, they will tell you so many canteen names and a big library which is constructed as a separate building.

Faculty: Per semester, they conduct 3 CIAs, best of 2, they will take as internal marks out of 50, and we write semester for 50 marks. In a 60-student class, only 25 cleared the semester, and we have an evaluation option for that, we have to pay 1000. The curriculum was good, faculty members were experienced. It will be tough; whatever you write, they won’t put marks, they want a clear cut.

MBBS - Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery - Batch of 2027

Offered by Goa Medical College, Panaji

4Placements5Infrastructure4Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

The oldest Medical College in Asia.

Placements: We are a total of 180 students. The lowest package is from 7-8L per annum, and there's no upper limit; it can go up to 20L or more. Government jobs and private hospitals hire. Every student has a compulsory internship. Roles include doctor, nurse, physiotherapist, MS teacher, dentist, etc.

Infrastructure: Lecture halls are new. There are 3 girls' hostels: 2 old and 1 new. 3 hostels for boys, separate. There is proper water supply, light, and security. The college has a huge library, no Wi-Fi, good classrooms, and a good hospital. It's probably the only government hospital that provides free CT scans and MRIs.

Faculty: The teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is good, and teachers are strict. The course is CBME-based. It makes students ready for healthcare. Semesters are difficult to clear. Regular study is required to pass. Timely submission of assignments and attendance is needed.

Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com.) - Batch of 2022

Offered by St. Xavier's College - Goa

2.8

3Placements2Infrastructure3Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

I am disappoint with most of the facilities but they have an okay atmosphere .

Placements: 20 percent of the students were placed in my course, and the highest was 1.2 LPA rupees. there were no well known recruits out there, and I wasn't offered a placement, so I don't know much about the placements part, but studying at St. Xavier's gives you a better reputation .

Infrastructure: The facilities weren't the best, as there were very dirty toilets, most of the classroom projectors never worked, and it was a messy environment. Overall, there is a lot of scope for improvement, and I know they can improve on this, and there are a lot of classrooms and books in the library.

Faculty: Not all the teachers were helpful, as they would only teach the students that were scoring well and being attentive, and they used to not give attention to the weak students like me. The first semester was too hard, and the pass percentage was precisely 97 percent.

Other: I chose this course as I wanted to learn more about accounting, but I kept failing, so I dropped out in between, and now I'm doing a different course, and I wish they would give us more events, a shorter period, and a longer interval, as no one could eat anything as the canteen was full of rushes and had fewer items of food.

B.Sc. (Chemistry, Botany, Microbiology) - Batch of 2022

Offered by St. Xaviers College, Mapusa

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

One of the Best Colleges in Goa for Graduation.

Placements: Up to 25% of students secured jobs. Most of them opted for higher studies, i.e., M.Sc., which is available in the same college. The highest package is 30,000/- and the lowest is 10,000/-. Vedanta, Cipla, and other pharmaceutical companies in Goa also recruit from the college. No internships or roles were offered.

Infrastructure: No hostel structure available. Private hostels are available nearby for girls. The canteen is good, with tasty and healthy food. Sports and games are at the national level. Some include football, hockey, chess, NCC, NSS, badminton, tennis, basketball, etc. A lot of events take place.

Faculty: The teachers are qualified and knowledgeable. They are kind and explain well. Good presentations are made, and a lot of industry exposure is provided. The course is relevant to the industry, but to secure higher pay, higher qualifications are needed. Semester exams are quite easy. The pass percentage is above 85%.

Exceptional academics and supportive faculty.

Placements: The placements are provided by the college with good roles, but the package is not very worth it. The highest is Rs. 20,000 with no allowances. Internships are provided with good outcomes. The various roles offered for B.Com students are mostly in sales, accounting, banking jobs, etc.

Infrastructure: The facilities in the college are quite good and well-maintained. There are all the latest versions of study equipment like smartboards, projectors, LED screens, and so on. The library and computer labs provide better learning, which is helpful. The canteen is overpriced.

Faculty: The teachers are much more helpful and supportive than I ever thought. They are highly qualified and provide quality teaching to all students. This course overall doesn't make much of an impact in terms of career prospects. The semester exams are easy to pass.

Other: The reason I chose this course was in accordance with my career, which is all about accounts.

Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) - Batch of 2029

Offered by Goa College of Architecture

2.8

3Placements2Infrastructure3Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

Review for Goa College of Architecture.

Placements: The architecture is a construction field where we are trained more for designing. The batch was amazing but don't expect class unity; nobody is trustworthy. They hire those who are skilled based on how fast they are in software and construction. It is a government college, and they aren't offering campus placements.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very minimal. The college doesn't have a proper campus, whereas there are two running colleges under the same campus. The college doesn't provide Wi-Fi for the students, and other facilities, including the canteen, have minimal space, which cannot fit many students and with limited items. The college doesn't provide hostel service, but the good things are the library and the classrooms.

Faculty: The faculty at the college is exceptional, comprising experienced professors with expertise. Most of them hold master's degrees. They ensure that the students receive high-quality education. The faculty-to-student ratio is approximately 1:15, allowing personalized attention. There are viva exams almost every 2 weeks, so the faculty helps well with the work.

Other: This is the only architecture college in Goa. It is situated in the capital city, Panjim, which is easily accessible by public transport. The college also provides bus service free of cost. There are also many events at the college, including a fest called Vistara.
