Remarks

It is a well reputed Central University so the cost of education, hostel and food is very less compared to other places. There is freedom inside the campus. It has a beautiful campus and Pondicherry is a very beautiful place itself.

Course Curriculum Overview

Faculties need to interact more with the student and bed more regular when it comes to taking class. They should update the syllabus more frequently. The placement cell needs to function more efficiently.

Placement Experience

1.5

As I mentioned earlier, the placement cell needs to fuction mkre efficiently. Zoho and SGI Global are the 2 companies that I can recall who came for placements. The Alumni network is not as strong as other colleges.

College Events

5

There are many events that take place throughout the year from football tournaments to management fest, cultural events. There are not much technical events that happen inside our college. They are famous for theatre workshops organized by the performing arts department. Every group students have the liberty and freedom to conduct festivals depending on the number of people willing to participate.

Fees and Financial Aid

Top 3 students from each department are eligible for merit scholarship, and next three students from each department are eligible for merit-cum-mean scholarships depending on their family's annual income.

Campus Life

The sports facilities need to upgraded, wifi is available across the campus. Sometimes the speed really test your patience but still manageable. The library is one of the best things about the place. They also have a dedicated reading room in the annex building with charging ports and wifi to help students study peacefully.

Hostel Facilities

Yes. I had opted for hostel rooms. For undergraduate and post graduate students, there are 3 person per room with 2 cupboards, 2 tables and 2 chairs and single rooms for PHD students with one furniture each and two research scholar scholar per room in only one hostel. The room rent was 900 rupees per student for UG and PG

Placement Experience:

From the final year which means 5th and 6th semester for undergraduate students and 3rd and 4th semester for Post graduate students, it is eligible for them to attend the campus placements. In my MBA, we'll be eligible for next semester to attend the placements. But for undergraduate students, they might have got chances now to attend the placements. The companies visited for us when I was in Undergraduate in the same Loyola College are Deloitte, Accenture, Standard Chartered, Goldman Sachs, RR Donneley, Bank of America, Sutherland, Infosys, Cognizant, TCS, Equinty, Turing, and many more small companies also came. The overall placed students numbers were almost more than 300 among the final year students alone in the college which is a great achievement. The highest package offered for us is ?700000 from Goldman Sachs and the average package we received is ?300000 which is from all the small companies. The percentage of placed students in our college is almost 85% from our batch alone. So we hope that in this batch there might be more than 90%. The reason for 85% in our batch is most of the students has moved for higher studies. My plan after getting degree is to get a senior most position in any of the big company and grow in my career.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Because it was rare. Not many colleges offer this course. So the certificate has its value. Curriculum doesn't necessarily prepares you for real world applications, but you have to opportunities to develop skills. You can work with phd scholars , they are all very friendly and let's you work with them and learn. The curriculum could be improved by introducing more about fisheries, currently the syllabus focus on oceanography, biochemistry and other laws or policies.

Students become eligible for placement from 3rd year 6th semester itself but the college does not bring any company for placement on time. 5 years back standard companies lkke tsc, hcl, cts etc used to come. But nowaday it is very rare. Lowest package is 2 lpa and highest package is 6 lpa. Average is 4 lpa. Very least students get placed. Try off campus. Do not believe the college

Money oriented. Not focusing on the students career growth and knowledge probagation. Only focusing for the upcoming year admission so that they can earn more. The interest from the caution deposit can buy an expensive car.
