The University of Madras

Faculty:

My personal opinion would be that depending on the facilities for literally everything will not be suitable. However the faculties are not so great either because of their pressure I guess. Because therere are many students and less faculties

Student Snaps:

There will be maximum of 75 students per class. Around 90 to 100 faculties work in this college. Mostly all the faculties maintain a freindly relationship with the students. There will be internal assessments conducted for every semester. There will be 3 internal assessments for one semester and the exams will not be much comprehensive.

Degree with a dose of life

Likes

Most of the teachers were friendly and they guided in our projects so well.

In our department there are 36 students. It is a women's college. There are 5 faculties for our department. There are some friendly faculties, and there are strict ones also. Our bioinformatics mam is very friendly and helped us very much in completing our projects and guided us very well. I felt that some staffs didn't give proper internal marks. There are 2 internal exams per semester but they won't be taking marks from that exam. They will take marks from one test that will be conducting suddenly. Those who are absent on that day will be getting very less internal marks and it affects our overall marks. The exams are not too tough. Mostly all the students clear the exams in most of the semesters. Some will fail (3/4 out of 36) in some semesters.

Think Again of Your College

Each and Every professor were taught with Unique style,All of them were Assistant and Associate Proffesor and we have professors from well trained organisation and Different States

Dislikes

I Like my college Proffesor and their innovative mind to explain the concepts along the comparison of past and present examples

1)In Our Presidency College,we have more than 1000 professor for allover the 54 departments. Our professors relationship were really good they were treated us like their own children along with the proper guidance. 2) Siddharth Sir and Kamal Sir because they loved us as their own children and they gave us a various opportunity to see the world in a different view. 3) Professor MD because she never asked about the students mentality while the class hour 4) We had 6 papers for each semester only 2-3 %of people fail but our Course is very much related to current Situation.

Best women's college in the heart of Chennai

Experienced faculty who puts in efforts to present topics in a better way. They are also friendly.

We were affiliated to University of Madras and follow their exam systems. Faculties were approachable and friendly in my department. I used to be on OD, for 3/5 days, they were understanding and helped me stay updated. I love my HOD, Dr A Umahani ma'am. She is strict, she will expect decorum, but she will be the first person to appreciate you when you achieve something. Dr Mary Diana ma'am, sweet as always and ever energetic. She is full of vibe and understands us well. Exams weren't difficult. As someone who never stayed in the class, I was still able to crack the exams. You just need good friends who can help you in the last moment and previous year question papers. Just identify the pattern of the questions and you are good to go.

You will love Ethiraj as much as me ????????

Faculty to student ratio was a very typical thing. In my entire college life. Teachers are so rude and very minimum number of teachers are cool and understanding. I didn't like Vidya Mam and of the teacher. I do not want to lick the name but Vidya Mam so bad things to me, she, she always scold me, always scold everyone in the class pics for silly reasons. I like Sangeethavani Mam. We had to exams in a year and we had test between every semester. they were easy and understandable for our care.

Not a bad college for geology

Staffs are friendly and they will guide you if you ask any queries
They provide field trip on 2nd year and 3 rd year

Teachers have knowledgeand experience but they will use less in classes
Classes won't be regular and only 2 permenant staffs are there

I would say senthil kumar sir is one of the best faculty he has enormous knowledge and a down to earth person who guide you if you ask anything in geology and course curriculum which i studied is old but now they have changed TANSLEY syllabus and its very futuristic subjects are there on syllabus

All about my college

The faculty members are experienced, friendly, and always willing to guide students.

The faculty-to-student ratio at Chevalier T Thomas Elizabeth College For Women is balanced, ensuring personal attention and guidance. Most faculty members are approachable, supportive, and encourage questions both inside and outside the classroom. The relationship with students is generally positive, especially within the Computer Science department. Faculty like Mrs. Lavanya and Mrs. Jayanthi stand out for their clarity in teaching, timely completion of syllabus, and motivational support. They simplify complex concepts and offer mentorship beyond academics. While most faculties are good, a few might lack engagement or use outdated teaching methods, which affects student interest. However, no specific names are being mentioned here out of respect.
