Course Curriculum Overview

3

When I started, it was old syllabus. At present they improved the syllabus, and based on choice and interest students can select their subjects. For example, if a student like data science he or she can take data science as his or her interest subject.

Placement Experience

3

Placement is somewhat pathetic in our department that is computer science. Placement officer says it is students work to bring good companies. But for other departments like MBA they get good package.

College Events

5

Technical is not celebrated, but in cultural onam, pongal, durga puja is celebrated. In other departments they organise fests and invite different colleges and different branches students and organize competition, give prize in form of money or trophy.

Fee Structure And Facilities

At the time of admission, they charged 18250 for academics. 11300 for 6 months hostel and fooding. Next 6 months tuition fee was 3000 and mess charge was almost 7000. For the next two years, for odd semester it was 8000 for academics and 10000 for mess and hostel, and for even semester, it was 3000 for academics, and 7000 for mess.

Fees and Financial Aid

No, not needed for me. But you can take loan from outside banks, or University indian bank. It generally takes 1 week.

Campus Life

3

Campus life is awesome, its near beach. Sports and lab facility is good, but can be improved in certain sectors. They should also organise fests in computer science department. Teachers needed to be more caring. They should increase computer count in computer science department.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Yes, it is 3 sharing room. Each corridor consists of 10 rooms, for that one bathouroom consisting 3 toilets, 3 wash areas, and 3 bathourooms. Everyday the hostels are cleaned. Charge is too low. 900 annually. Those who dont get room, they stay in dormitory.

Alumni/Alumna

Somewhat helpful, not always. Some are way too good for us, they provided placement assistance from their office. Some people just want attention.

Admission

After online entrance exam, it took 1 month to release the result, based in ranks they take admission, special treatment for sc st and obc as lower ranks also can get admission. Also local Pondicherry quota was there. They call rank wise, they verify details, and if okay thn admitted, then we have to pay fees online or offline.

Faculty

3.5

They are highly qualified, with some of them net and gate qualified. They after 12 done btech mtech phd, some bca mca then philosophy then phd. Some with foreign experience. But only few takes care of students need. Some teachers are always available, and some will punish you in exam if you ask more questions.
