Remarks

I had a really good time in the college. I have spent the best days there. It not only helps you with your studies but also helps you grow and nurture your inner talent. This is one of the best institution for distance learning in Tamil Nadu.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course curriculum of this course, tourism management is quite interesting. We get to learn a new thing everyday. It is just a one year program with a lot of benefits. I really enjoyed the time I used to study this course.

Placement Experience

4.5

Placement and job opportunities are good in the college. the college help the students in getting internship programs also. But it completely depends on the students calibre what kind of internship he / she will get.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure of the college is very feasible. I remember, the total amount I paid for the course that I opted was just 4700 rupees. The fee structure is another yet reason I joined this college . it is very affordable

Fees and Financial Aid

Scholarships and loan facilities are available to the students via government and public as well as private banks. If any student excels in the course of study and is economically weak, the college also provides some concession in the fees to that particular student.

Campus Life

We used to have a lot of extra curricular activities. We had different site visits and other trips as it is a path for study. I really liked all these activities. It was such a fun doing these things. And yes, no discrimination is done in the college with any student.

Alumni/Alumna

I had interacted with a few seniors of mine. They were really helpful and supportive. We are all also connected to an alumni group of the college. It feels good when I guide my juniors and help them know better career options.

Admission

I chose the tourism diploma course out of interest in it and I found periyar University a good place where I could convert my interest into a certificate. All the admission procedure was done online and on my merit basis I got admission in the college.

Faculty

More than professors, the faculty members were our friends. They always helped us whenever we needed them and guided us whenever we had a doubt in our syllabus. They supported as both in the classroom and outside the classroom. Even now if I contact any one of them, they will help me for sure.

Good placement opportunities, career guidance and opportunities to participate in activities.

Dislikes

The workload can be huge sometimes, especially during examinations and project submissions.

Students can join job drives from the 7th term. Many firms visit the campus for jobs and offer roles in tech and other fields. The pay varies by firm and role. EEC has a good job rate and gives help for job prep. After my degree, I plan to work in the tech field and grow my skills.

HIMT COLLEGE REVIEW

Likes

The faculties are very well experienced and there are captains who stay in the campus itself, so if there’s something we need they will be available all the time
The facilitieslike labs, ship in campus, DB tank facilities etc are top notch
The classrooms are fully air conditioned. There’s smart board. Overall everything is really good and also neat and clean

Dislikes

Galley food can improve a little and canteen is comparatively small for such a big campus
They are not conducting intra- college events and inter-college events is very less

Placement Experience:

Placements are really good in HIMT. I got placed in 1st year itself in MOLMI. All faculties try their best to prepare us for the placements and it shows in the placement interview also. Usually companies come for placements from 2nd year but there are some companies who want to take girl cadets 1st year itself. MOLMI, MOLTA etc came to our college for placements. After completion of the course, company will call for induction and accordingly they will call for joining the ship. For finishing the cadet ship , we have finish 12 months of sea time. After that a lot courses has to be done for appearing in 2 nd mates exam.

Likes

The curriculum provided is really nice and understandable.
It is relevant and is effective as well.
The boy girl ratio is on the other hand a little less as in 45:15.

Dislikes

The way some facilities behave with students is really bad especially in our branch.
Some facilities are too rude and they often don’t want to listen to students point of view

Placement Experience:

Students are open to campus placements from 2nd year onwards. There are many companies who visit such as Delloite, Accenture, Cognizant, TCS, Amazon, NatWest, Nokia, etc. Highest package offered is 42 lpa and lowest is maybe 2-4lpa. Around 90% of students get placed here. My plans is to get a job through campus recruitment. Currently I got an internship through campus recruitment in Cognizant so the recruitment is quite nice here.
