I personally haven't done any internships till date so don't have any relevant information on that.

There are a lot of events that are held in MCC which varies from hall events, inter college and intra college events.Festivals such as Christmas, Pongal are celebrated in a grand manner.

Except for the 2 new halls, all the other 4 hall's infrastructure is in a very bad condition. Infrastructure facilities has to improved and every year initiatives should be taken towards it's betterment. 24*7 water is the basic need of any individual and especially in the toilets it should be provided. The hostel infrastructure is minimal.

The alumni network always reaches out to the college and contributes to the upbringing of the college. Former student of MCC Indira Nooyi has even sponsored for a women's lounge with modern facilities. The sponsorship of several inter collegiate events are also sponsored by the alumni network.
