5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money
The best college for M.A. in Social Work (Children & Families) Course.
Placements: 95% of students were placed; few chose to do additional courses and explore their speed. Rs 30,000-RRs 60,000, depending on the skills learned and the strong CV one can build. Our alumni have been in CRY, SOS villages, UNICEF-related projects, and various CSR-related organizations. Project Manager, Assistant Project Manager, Coordinator, Field Worker, Child and Family Counselor, Legal Advise, etc. are the top roles offered. 25k is the lowest, and 55 or 65k will be the highest package depending on the resume. TISS has a large network where it has spread across India during this pandemic.
Infrastructure: Students are trained to respond to all aspects, such as social, political, emotional, educational, and environmental issues. On campus, students enjoy the annual festival called QUINTESSENCE. They provide research materials, books, and comics from the library. There are a total of 10 residences on campus. It is exciting to see Bollywood stars around, as many big stars' houses are visible from the campus.
Faculty: The course curriculum is highly relevant to the industry standards, making us industry-ready. I miss my university days because of the support of our teachers, whose lectures were the best and always aimed at our development. All the teachers are highly educated and masters of their subjects. Exams are taken semester by semester, and the pass percentage is 65% for written exams and internships.

I am satisfied with the college and faculty members.
Placements: 70% of the students got internships at different companies. I got into Cybertech Akola. I have no idea about placements. In our class, there are 30 students, which is the strength of the course. Faculty members are still trying to get companies for the students.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi and classrooms are good. They don't provide hostel facilities. We are living outside for rent, but the rented room is good. We don't have labs, so we bring our own laptops. There is a medical facility available; we have a health center. For sports, we play on the ground. Students usually go there and play.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The course is relevant, but some students are having problems with on-the-job training, like they haven't gotten a company yet. The course will make students industry-ready. Semester exams are of average difficulty. We will pass if we study.
Other: As we are in vocational courses, we are not able to participate in college events.
