A Hidden Story of Central University of Tamilnadu

Likes

I liked the most is diversity of the students, because this is a central university so here are students from all the states and that makes it good
Campus life is ok ok not so good, and also here the faculty is from different states so they have lot of experiences

Dislikes

Things i don't like is the little bit college environment and our college is in rural area so availability of things are problems.
There are less train and travelling options to go there and to reach there so this is a one of the problem so that we do not have more connection with city.
The main problem is food because there is rural area so there is no more option for us to eat.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is very good and nice the reason behind is choose this course because it have dual degree programme bachelors and masters as well so this is a good option and also there is a option of quit after 3rd year by taking the degree of BSc and also this structure follows the new education policy and it makes the better structure that connect with the other college and other courses. In real world application this course is good and it helps in comptetive exams prepearations. Area of improvement is like they can add and equalize the course syllabus to Gate or IIT JAM syllabus so that we will be able to prepare with the same syllabus of college to the entrance exam syllabuys. After completing of 2 units they use to conduct an internal exam and after completing all the unit we have our external that is end semester exam happens. The level of exam is quite moderate and not that much difficult but it is relavant to the subject and to the course content.

A good place to stay in and study.

Likes

Freedom to wander inside the campus 24 hr
Qualified professors who is ready to help us.
Library having many books and a reading room of 24*7

Dislikes

Mess food quality is poor and very bad and.
In cutn you might miss the experience of diversity because most of the students are might be malayalees. It was like when I was studying. So for a malayalee he won't get the experience of diversified culture

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose the curriculum of cutn m com cause I was pursuing the career as a professor, so I have to write UGC NET exams. I found that the syllabus there in was similar to achieve the UGC NET. And there was some extra subject like operation research etc. Exam was semester basis, difficulties are depends on your study.

Federal bank is one of the frequent recruiter in the campus , they offer average package of 12 lpa and it's pretty good. Other placement are not that good. Researchzs the best option for CUTN students

Madras School of Economics - A Comprehensive Review for Bachelor's

Likes

The gender ratio is fairly close to 1:1 and it provides a proper environment for all to collaborate and interact.
Most of the faculty members are reachable.
Students usually get free by 4PM and have the remainder of the day to explore their own things.

Dislikes

More academics oriented - no room for placements on campus as such.
Unable to choose electives - have to do whatever course is available.
Infrastructurally very basic - lacks a lot of facilities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Has a lot of new age courses like MS Excel, Python and Data Science. It prepares you fairly well for roles like Data Analyst, Financial Modelling, etc. Areas for improvement include optimising the curriculum load as per the students. Two internals (one after a month after sem starts, second a few weeks before the end sem) and the end sem. I feel the end sem is relatively easier due to the preparation we endure for the internals.

BA Economics hons MSE review

Likes

The rigour of the course is very intense. The syllabus which is followed here is intense and rigorous. Its unique compared to the syllabus offered in other colleges of India.
Staff lore is very good in MSE. Most of the staffs encourage doubts and are also willing to have conversations with you. Faculties are knowledgeable and they know there stuff very well. They take much interests if you reach out to them through mail.
They provide a lot of guest lectures which gives us a lot of exposure and we get to know how economics works in the real life policy making sectors.

Dislikes

Theres no opportunities for sports and extra curricular activities. They don’t conduct any events rather it is done by putting our own money and by the efforts of the students only.
The campus is very small, and there are no proper areas for sports etc and also the canteen is very bad. It is super minimal.
If you want social life then this college is not the place, only the studious one survive here. Well you can still make friends here but then the college ‘itself’ does not provide any social life

Course Curriculum Overview:

Well the course provides almost everything which is needed and available. This is not a normal economics course as it involves statistics,python, core math and also dives into data science. This allows the students to explore various subjects and can choose which is their best fileld. The curriculum overall is very rigorous and intense but you can crack it if you study regularly. About the frequencies of the examinations, we have 2 internal examinations and 1 end semester examination. I can guarantee that this course is super rigorous but im not sure if i would necessarily say that the course is "practical" and it helps us in the real word. I cannot comment on the practicality of the courses. The exams are not super difficult and its moderate. Getting more than 90% can be challenging although clearing the paper won't be an impossible task.

The life at CUTN

Likes

Speaking about the faculties in Microbiology department of Central University of Tamil Nadu, they're really helpful and cooperative. They help you in academics as well as help you to get into internship opportunities
Hostel has been a big positive attraction. They are well built. The infrastructure is attractive and you can feel home
Campuss life is a positive factor. If you're surrounded by good people, you can enjoy the campuss to it's fullest

Dislikes

Mess food can be of poor quality at times. People used to fall sick occassionally

Bus facilities to town is a problem. There is a single bus that takes you from University to Thiruvarur and they run only 4 times a day

Course Curriculum Overview:

The syllabus of my course is actually good and covers major areas of Microbiology with insights on the future applications too. Coming to the exam point of view, the exams aren't very hard. An average or above average student can clear the papers with some effort. The way they conduct exams are pretty impressive as they give the students a day or two off after each exams for preparation so that we won't be exhausted.
