Dislikes

The cordination given by management of college, They were so rude all the time idk y

Course Curriculum Overview:

Literature gave me insights to the history and a different pov on the situations happened Literature sharpens the thought process we can have in real world scenarios which are quite unique tbh. Its just too much of theory, if could update it and make it somehow relavent to today situation, it would be fun learning it

COLLEGE REVIEW OF IBSAR BELAPUR

Likes

The good thing about this college is affordability and how quick the admission process is.
Teachers are friendly too, there is no mandatory attendance rule and the lecs are conducted three days a week for mca students which gives them the freedom to work or switch between lecs and personal things
The feedbacks of students are taken seriously and the staff is changed accordingly. Students can freely talk to faculty about the performance of teachers and quality of education.

Dislikes

There is no campus in this college which limits student activities for events or other things.since the lecs are not conducted daily or as like other colleges , very less class count is there which affects the interactivity as well.
The quality of infrastructure is not quite good as the college is there in two floors of the building only. Campus amenities are average as well. There aren't much opportunities as such in this college like industrial level or any.
If anyone wants to experience and actually college life with the whole campus experience,events , activities or other things ,this college isn't a good fit

Placement Experience:

During the admission the students are told that in semester four , just students are eligible for campus placements and some of the companies come for a placements and even the undergraduate students are placed . The name of the companies that come for the placement include Vector ,HDFC Bank etc but in admission pamplets huge company names are provided like infosys, wipro, etc. the average packages are 300000 -500000 per year. The cgpa of students should be higher than 7. I am planning for an on campus as well as off campus placements.

College life of a Mariner

I have completed my diploma and Then I applied for these college and got selected. Yes, I have not applied for any other colleges. This college was my first preference and got addmission here. For the addmission process first you have to give IMU CET entrance exam and score good ranking in it. After the result is declared you have to pay 10000 for the college selection process. After that some days later a list will be declared with the cadets selected for the college on the website. If you have the name you are the lucky guy. You will get a call from the college to bring the required documents plus check for the college fee. Yes your first exam fee will be only accepted through check. You have to pay 25000 extra as a caution deposit which you will get back once you have graduated from the college....Read More

As I always wanted to join the merchant navy so my senior's and every one suggested me to join imu as it is a govt college. Bad aspects are you should be strong enough to handle the senior's warden and the strict rules and regulations of the college. As I already told it's a govt college so basically fees are less and placement is also better than other Imus....Read More
