2Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life2Value for Money

The college must improve a lot.

Placements: There are no placements in my college. Few industries conduct walk-in interviews. There are no placements, no package is offered and no internships are offered. The course helps us to get an overall general view of all sectors, so it is easy for us to attend competitive exams.

Infrastructure: There is a library on our campus and it is useful. Classrooms are a bit old. Renovation is going on in our hostel. The quality of the food in the mess is poor. The management is working on it. We have good sports facilities. We have many clubs for different activities.

Faculty: The teachers are well qualified experienced and knowledgeable. The course has too much information which can be reduced. It makes the students stressed. Semester exams in our college are quite difficult. Most of the students pass except a few. The percentage may be around 80%.

Other: This is the only government college for agriculture in Pondicherry. There are many clubs for extracurricular activities.

Still in developing stage, bad placements, bad infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: Around 60 percent of people get placed in CSE courses and negligible in other branches. The average package stands at 5L and the highest package is 24L. Very less students get internships. Companies like L&T, Wipro, TCS, etc. Mostly call center roles are offered.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure in this college is still in the developing stage. Classrooms are not equipped with digital equipment or any Wi-Fi requirements. The library is very outdated. Labs are very old and equipped with very old equipment. The hostel is also very basic which is frequently disrupted by water and Wi-Fi.

Insights on Course Structure and Faculty in Computer Science.

Placements: Nearly most of the students were placed in my batch, and it's still going on. Up to date, the highest salary was offered by Content Sack, a figure of 13 LPA. There are further more companies offering a minimum of 4 LPA. The company named Zoho took an intern from our batch, and other companies like Hexaware and Multicore also provided internships.

Infrastructure: Coming to infrastructure, I would say that it's below average. They provide Wi-Fi within the circumstances, and it's not good either. The classrooms are good. Coming to labs, it's very well-equipped with updated systems, and the library is provided with more than 10,000 books of different genres.

Faculty: The faculty was quite short. It led to difficulties in the semester and providing quality education. Not all of them are good. There are some staff who take good care of your time. The curriculum is very strict to the course perspective, and they take advantage of every program conducted through the respective departments.

Other: I've chosen Computer Science and Engineering because it's a course everyone prefers these days, and I thought it has a good future. I wish they will focus on one perspective so we can lead in that domain. If we're talking about fests and extracurricular activities, they rarely happen.
