How are the campus placements of pondicherry university?

Nikhil RayStudied Physics at Pondicherry University (2012)

One of my cousins graduated from Pondicherry University. According to him, it is a decent place to study and live but the rest depends on your hard work.

Nowadays the student's hard work counts more than what college he is studying. The physics department has a placement cell and it is active at Pondicherry University.

Institutes like TIME and other companies need subject experts in physics. They recruit from the university.

Campus recruitments at Pondicherry University are less. It depends upon the department. Different departments have different scenarios. Some departments have good placements while some don't.

How is Pondicherry University for an MCA and how are the placements?

Nilesha SamantaStudied Bachelor of Technology in Electrical Engineering at Pondicherry University (2018)

One of my friends graduated from Pondicherry University. Here are some things you need to know about it before making a decision.

  • Pondicherry University is good in terms of infrastructure and facilities. 
  • It's a central University and has a very good campus. 
  • The faculties are moderate.
  • The placement scenario is not very good at Pondicherry University.
  • Students here are mostly dependent on off-campus placements.

My friend got a good rank (read AIR-1) in 2014 but he ended up pursuing it in NIT Durgapur. So think wisely.

In general Pondicherry University is a good university. But not fit to meet the requirements of the industry. Better join some other university. In the long run, PU is not a good option. Placements are not up to the mark.
