{Source: B.Sc. students & alumni}Placement Cell Assistance for B.Sc. Students at Periyar Maniammai UniversityUnfortunately, based on the student reviews and feedback, it appears that Periyar Maniammai University does not have a dedicated Placement Cell for B.Sc. students. This means that the university does not arrange interviews with companies or organizations, leaving students without opportunities for placements.Here's what students have reported:* "Our college does not have a placement cell."* "Our college does not provide even 2 or 3 companies, so all students did not get placed in an interview."This lack of assistance from the university may make it challenging for B.Sc. students to find employment after graduation.Note: Since there is limited information available on the university's placement services, we cannot provide further details on how the placement cell assists students in getting placed.

{Source: B.Arch students & alumni}Effectiveness of Placement Cell for B.Arch Courses at Periyar Maniammai UniversityUnfortunately, there seems to be limited information available regarding the effectiveness of the placement cell for B.Arch courses at Periyar Maniammai University. Upon reviewing the provided student reviews, I found no mentions specifically discussing the placement cell or its performance.However, one quote does mention that "for architecture, there are no direct placements like other courses. You have to prepare a portfolio with your academic works and apply to the architecture firms." This suggests that the university may not offer traditional placement opportunities for B.Arch graduates, but instead relies on students taking initiative to find employment through their own efforts.It's worth noting that this information is based on the provided reviews alone and may not represent the complete picture of the university's placement processes. Further research would be necessary to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the situation.
