Hostel Facilities

5

Room is usually three sharing, with two cupboard, 2 tables and 3 beds! The room is quite spacious too. Meal here is okay, not so good but it is worth the mess fees paid, sweets are also offered thrice in a week. Hostel fees for girls is 1000 and other amenities are only charged

Admission

The first reason I choose this college was it is very near to my home not new but rather than uploading to other colleges this is comparatively near. Next is the next is the rank of the college which is high it almost and third and it in the top national universities is 80 so that attracted me. I had certain seniors who told me that this universities very good for both UG and PG and especially for research and the curriculum here is good and that is one of the main reason that I choose

Faculty

5

The faculty in sociology department is nearly 10. While the students are of 250 or so! Hence it is manageable but there are also many research scholars and guest faculty who have occasional classes for the students. I like our kinship and family faculty, mrs.Imtirenla longekmar.she is the most inspiring lady I ever look for ! She has a pleasent smile in her face, and has good knowledge that she fed us in class. She has been awarded the best teacher for 3 times during the teachers day celebration in Pondicherry University and she is very young looking even at her 40s. By the way she is from nagaland. The exams are quite hard but the number of failures is usually 3 or below only in a class of 28.

Night Life

5

Gym is separate for both girls and boys, and we have a seperate trainer there. Library is air conditioned with knowledge of wide variety of books ! Cafeteria, night canteens and ponlait are common places of happiness for students.

Course Curriculum Overview:

In my course we are learning a lot of theory papers like cultural studies , gender and queer studies , subartern studies , critical approches to theories and so on. Even in the thrid sem i had a project of translation under one of the best facutly in our department. This strengthens my resume. These syllabus are really helpful to participate clear competetive exams like ugc net . We had a lot of questions from our syllabus in the previous exam. To tell about the exam , timing is 3 hour for every paper. We dont have any practicals or labs. Paper inclues 2 marks , 5 marks and 15 marks.

Placement Experience:

There is is placement cell available in the university. One of the main responsibilities of the Placement Cell is to motivate, train and prepare the students of the University and its affiliated Colleges for campus interviews. It plays a very important and key role in counselling and guiding the students of the University and its affiliated Colleges for their successful career placement, which is a crucial interface for the students between the stages of completion of academic programmes of studies and entry into suitable employment.

Placement Experience:

The students become eligible for campus placements after their second semester. That is when recruiter officers approach students for their interest and interviews. Amazon is one of the main recruiters. The average package is 5lpa starting. 40% get placed. My plans are to pursue a PhD after my master's.

Remarks:

The college management is utmost attentive to any kind of lacunas in academic or hostel facilities for the students. It readily addresses all the problems of students. The management has made the system very transparent to make it feasible for the students to approach anyone based on their necessity. It works for the overall development of the university.
