Government College for Women, Thiruvananthapuram Reviews on Infrastructure, Campus, Placement, Facilities & Faculty

THE LIBRARY AND READING ROOMS AND ALSO THE LANGUAGE LABS FOR STUDENTS ARE VERY HELPUL. WIFI PROVIDED ALL AROUND THE CAMPUS. THE CAMPUS ATMOSPHERE IS SO GREEN AND LUSH AND WAS MY SAFE SPACE FOR 3 YEARS I SPEND THERE

GREAT FACULTY AND AMAZING SYLLABUS STRUCTURE FOR THE COURSE. VERY THOROUGH CURRICULUM COVERING INDIAN RENAISANCE TO WORLD LITERATURE TO LINGUSITICS - HOLISTIC COVERAGE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE. GIVES ONE AN OVERVIEW OF DIFFERENT BRANCHES OF ENGLISH WHICH HELPED ME FINALISE MY MASTERS SPECIFICATION

MULTIPLE JOB DRIVES WERE CONDUCTED. MORE STUDENTS FROM COMMERCE AND SCIENCE GOT PLACEMENTS AS MOST ARTS STUDENTS WANTED TO PURSUE MASTERS FURTHER. THE AVERAGE SALARY PACKAGE AS PER MY KNOWLEDGE STARTED FROM 2.5 LPA.

VERY AFFORDABLE FINISHED MY 6 SEM AT LESS THAN 15,000

PARTICIPATION IN SPORTS IS HIGHLY ENGAGED AND THERE ARE A VARIETY OF CLUBS ONE CAN JOIN AND ALSO THERE IS AN OPEN GYM AND OTHER GYM FOR FITNESS. SAFEST ENVIRONMENT FOR STUDENTS

Our department has many well maintained labs, including dark rooms. MSc students have a different one from us. But equipments are limited, which may or may not work. Access to free wifi is available in the central library of the college only. Each department has one well maintained smart classroom which is used very often. Most of our classes are held there. Classes are cleaned weekly in the inspection of PTA. Food is the best thing about my college-affordable,clean and delicious but limited.

I am a final year BSc Physics student. Our teachers are the best- very much qualified to teach and has a lot of subject knowledge. But the curriculum of Kerala University is the worst because my mother studied the same thing I am studying now ie. Syllabus is the same for past 30 years. Our studies is purely syllabus based (no recent developments) , no practical knowledge is gained. What I get from the syllabus can never make me job-ready, we only get to know some basics of the old age physics.

Our department doesn't offer any placement. So no students were ever placed. About other departments, I don't know much. I think no department in our college offers placements. As this is a degree course, i don't think anyone comes here for placements. Btech is a better option when it comes to placements I guess.

My course charges an average of 1000 rupees every year as tuition fee. Exam fee of 500 rupees is to be paid to the Kerala University too. Fees are paid only by certain students based on their parent's income. Most students have scholarships like e-grantz. So they need not pay the fees. Only children of government officials have to pay the full amount. I feel worth for the money I pay because physics department offers a good deal of resources in the library for our benefits.

Our campus is very active and loud under our college union. All programs are sponsored by famous shops and restaurants. There are programs everyday by different departments. Students can engage in whatever program they wish- clubs , NCC, NSS, etc.. Some bad features are - there is no college band for singing, dancing etc. Science departments are not much into such programs. We are mostly in labs when all the main programs take place. So we are not getting enough of the campus life here.

A lot of activites take place in our college. But us - science students don't get to know about most of them. Academically, our teachers are the best, but the curriculum is the villain. Exams are too crowded. First sem would be so long(1year), but then we have to write the next 4 semester's exams in one year. Marking systems are also good enough, but results are no published timely.
