What Students Say

Likes

Scholarships were available to students who scored first few ranks in the entrance exams, which were a great deal of help to them also, there are internships available through our mentors which is of great help.
Faculty are very good they teach well and they are very experienced with experience of 20 years, and fests happens every month and facilities are very good here like gym gardens library etc and place is very good
There are so many clubs like dance club, science club, maths club, etc and main beauty of the campus are very green and freedom of entry and exit anytime.

Dislikes

Firstly conduction of the entrance was very poor by nta.
At last the canteens. the foods of the canteens are ok but sometimes it too worst
I had a plan to do phd too but due to the academic stress and low facilities that this university is providing, i started to lose my interest on the subject.

The syllabus is very light for applied psychology in this university. There are only 3 semesters which have written exams. The last semester is just project and viva.One factor i liked about the curriculum is that in the third semester we can choose our specialty based on our interests.there are 3 options counselling clinical and industrial psychology.

Basic information about my college

Likes

My college often conduct programme and events which helps engage students very well in practical studies. And they encourage students by many prizes offered.
Our campus is very strict at the engagement activities because they offer marks in these activities also
As our institution is autonomous the curriculum is well built by many researches for our great career development and the quality of infrastructure is not compromisable it's very great

Dislikes

The process of teaching and periods allocation can be improved
According to my vision the inter college events can be conducted oftenly
The internship can be provided by the college rather we go and seek the companies

Placement Experience:

The placement session is offered by college with the specified period before placement companies arrive. Surity insurance Ltd., TCS, Whirlpool and 5 more The position offered is BPO, Sales field, Marketing field etc. The average package is 4,00,000 per annum 80% of the students placed My plan is higher studies in business school (MBA)
