Course Curriculum Overview

Our curriculum varies under CBCS, giving variety of choices to the students according to their capability. Different number of credits are based to earn different degrees. I earned more than 140 credits to get Undergraduate degree.

Placement Experience

The students are being interviewed by MNC companies, offering good salary hike. I got selected in the 2nd year of my college days for internship with a good stipend. Many of the students got job placements through the college.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fees structure is different for Aided courses and self-financing courses. We had two shifts, one in the morning and another in the afternoon. My course fees was INR 17,595 in total which included tuition fees, examination fees etc.

Campus Life

3.5

The college offers Extra-curricular and co-curricular activities such as N.S.S, N.C.C, Labs, games etc. I participated in N.C.C and it was a really good experience with my friends. I also received four credits as per college norms.

Admission

After filling all the necessary details for the admission, I submitted the application form in the college. Later, I was called for a personal interview with my parents and immediately after the interview , we paid the college fee.

Faculty

3.5

The faculty is really concerned for their students, therefore keeping parent teacher meetings during the marks distribution for a healthy growth of the students. The faculty is really encouraging and takes care of the slow learners.

My sweet college days!!

Likes

College environment was very neat and clean always.
The birds they kept at the front side campus were so pleasant and calm
Campus was large in size and comfortable

Dislikes

College management is very strict in handling students
College management allot less money as prize money for academic winners
Students should get pass even for 2 minutes late entry

Course Curriculum Overview:

The department of English not only offers good education but also so many values to lead our life. Faculties were so friendly in clearing students' doubts. There was personality development course to improve students' personality. Students had to choose any other subjects other than they are studying for sbi course. Due to this students learn about other subjects too.

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.
