Course Curriculum Overview
The courses that we are being thought in first year are a combination of all BTECH programs and few more courses such as law and design for us to explore courses and but as of now I think that these courses are not needed but it's being done in every college, the courses like C programming, maths and soft skills which are very much needed in real life and are thought very well, the course curriculum is just fine and I don't think it needs any changes. The exams are divided into three midterms, internals and endterms, midterms giving you 50 marks, internals giving you 50 marks and endterms giving you 100 marks so a total of 200 marks the whole year. The difficulty of examinations are average not very hard and not very easy. Timings for midterms is 1hour 30 minutes and endterms is 3 hours.
Internships Opportunities
The internships offered are sent through mails and can be applied for and the roles offered are based on your course, mostly the projects offered are data analysis etc for me because I am studying data science and internships are sent quiet often so there are various opportunities for that. The internships are usually paud internships where you have to pay to get the certification
Placement Experience
The placements at presidency university offers is average, the placements percentage is high but the packages are low, the highest was around 13L per Annum and average of around 3L per annum. Students are eligible for placements in third year, while having many opportunities for internships during the period of 4 years. There are various companies that visit our college for placements such as shell, tech Mahindra, dell, capgemini, and many more companies. My plan after degree is get a high paying job either through placements or self searched interviews
Fees and Financial Aid
I am a first year student at presidency university, the fees I am currently paying is 350000 INR. The fees can be paid in two instalments, first instalment in the first semester and the second instalment in the second semester. The fees should is divided into 70-30 instalment, 70-% of the fees should be paid in the first instalment and 30% in the next instalment. There are various scholarships you can apply, they are as follows: 1) merit scholarships - student should have 80% and above in physics, chemistry and other eligible subjects 2)JEE - student should be JEE qualified
Campus Life
Our college provides various events such as hackathon, mindrocks, invincia, etc. I had recently attended mindricks event which was concert type event, it was very fun, celebrities like MC square, jonita Gandhi, alia bhatt, Randeep hooda,Bhuvan bham, Zakir khan and many more had come overall the experience was great. The libraries are different for every department like engineering department has a different library, management has a different one and so does design there are various books Sports activities offered are football, basketball, cricket, table tennis, volleyball, throw ball,carom and badminton, coaching is provided for these sports and there are various clubs like h theatre, gaming, NCC, NSS, etc
Admission
I had applied for alliance and Dayananda sagar university(DSU), I chose presidency over them is because the crowd of alliance wasn't that great and DSU because they demanded for the fees to be paid in one shot while presidency gave us the opportunity to pay in two instalments, I never got rejected from those colleges I had to back out because of the above issues. The admission process is very easy you can come through management, CET, comedK and JEE, for management who need to have scored 60% and above in 12th, through CET you need to have rank below 20000. I have joined through management quota and it was an easy process for me
Faculty
The faculties at presidency university are good, the ratio of faculties is 60:1 for every subject, the faculties are very approachable and kind. I really like our soft skills teacher she helps us develop soft skills which are very essential for corporate life, there are teachers who are not that great but they teach really well, the examinations are average, they can easy and hard approximately 80-90% of them manage to pass the examination easily
Night Life
Nightlife at Bangalore is amazing but since the college is far from the main city it's a little hectic to travel, there gyms around the campus and also a gym in campus so people can access it very easily. There are cafeterias inside the campus and outside too. Hostel timings are a little too early which is 7:30pm so students can't go out after that which isn't fun at all. My favourite hangout place outside the campus is T-house and rocking cafe and the lawn inside the campus. The locality is safe cause the guards are everywhere but if you go further into the locality then it might be a little risky cause it's like a village around The campus
