Supportive community with a lot of care.
Placements: The placement in charge allows students to do internships based on their interests. They arrange internships in top MNCs. Top performers during internships are promoted to permanent jobs based on their performance. Graduates got placed in top MNCs with good packages and incentives.
Infrastructure: Academic sessions are handled by teachers in an understandable nature. Around 5-6 classes are held in a day. All problematic questions are solved by lecturers step by step. They mostly prefer to use blackboard instead of using digital board in explaining the problems.

Not great placement but otherwise good.
Placements: The course placement is subpar, especially for our batch. Only about twenty percent of us were able to secure placements, and even those who did were offered a meager package of approximately 2 lacs per annum.
Infrastructure: The campus is highly developed, with Wi-Fi available throughout and a dedicated library offering a wide range of finance and taxation materials. Both the hostels and classrooms are equipped with air-conditioning facilities.
Faculty: The course encompasses a wide range of topics, including inventory management, various calculation methods, and both direct and indirect taxation. The instructors are exceptional, providing valuable assistance and guidance to students in both academic and mentoring aspects.

College renowned for its excellence in MBA studies.
Placements: Internships and industrial exposure were planned for all semesters to add skills to graduation students. The internship stipend would basically be between Rs. 10,000 - Rs. 15,000 included with certificates. The placement cell takes care of us to improve the skills required for the hiring process.
Infrastructure: Dynamic sports facilities included required sports apparatus for all indoor and outdoor, but students were quite not interested to play sports. Hopefully interested students participated in the sports tournaments and made the college so proud by winning lot of trophies.
Faculty: Teachers wisely made some schedules to handle academics as well as placements without any confusion. They planned to conduct placements on weekends and academic sessions were covered during the weekdays The overall academic performance was fabulous.

Offered by St. Berchmans College

My average college life as an average student.
Placements: Our B.Sc. physics course is a higher studies-oriented course than a job-oriented course. I am still in the 4th semester, so I don't know how my placement will go but according to my seniors' experience, placements at our college are pretty good. More than 30% of students got placed. The highest salary package offered by some banks is 1.5 LPA. The average salary offered is Rs. 50,000. Internships are a must. All students are compelled to find one or it is provided by the department.
Infrastructure: Facilities of our college are top-notch not just in Kerala but in the country. The college provides Wi-Fi until class begins at lunch and after class. Our classrooms are neat with the newest smart classes, etc. The college has a central library for the whole college. The library is three-storeyed and filled to the brim with books. We can also access books through laneways. I don't stay in the hostel but from hearing from my classmates, it is pretty good.
Faculty: Our teachers are qualified and top-notch. All department teachers are Ph.D holders. There is a mentor and HOD in the department of physics. There are more than 10 professors. They all help me achieve academic success. Our course is more of a higher studies-based but the new curriculum for our juniors is different from the new laws passed by the central government. This course has become more focused on making students industry-ready. Semester exams are held strictly under the laws given by MG University, but they are not very hard. Professors are good. Teachers and mentors supported me through my academic journey.
Other: I chose this course mainly because my goal in life is to become a professor most likely in physics so the best course for me is B.Sc. physics. After this, I want to do my master's, Ph.D., etc. The best thing about the course is that you get to know more about the world around you from really smart people. Some things I wish would be better on the campus are we need more greenery in the environment as well as some modernism. The most celebrated events are Union Day, Arts Day, Sports Day, etc. But I always look forward to the fest held by different departments.

It's a very strict college and has a quiet atmosphere making it a good place to study.
Placements: 20 percent students were placed through campus interviews and other offers which the college offered. SBI is the top recruiting company. 20 percent students got internships and 20 percent of the students got placed as financial managers, Bank employees, CA, and in marketing sector.
Infrastructure: The labs and library are very cool but do not have enough space. The labs are tiny and it should be expanded according to the needs of the students. Classrooms are very nice and well furnished along with being smart classes. The campus is too small but it's filled with greenery.
Faculty: The teaching quality is very good. The semester exams are conducted under the regulation of Mahatma Gandhi University so it's hard from my point of view. The passing percentage is 70-80%. It's easy to pass the exams but you need to study hard to score well.
Other: It's a good course to get better jobs. The events and fest are so beautiful and the best. You can see it all on the Instagram pages.
