Life of a banking technology student in pu

Students here are very good and cooperative. They made my life here so easy and enjoyay
Pu is a central university that gives the same vibe as a college in my native place which gave me a sense of belo

Placements they promised is not provided for us this semester and placement given by banks are not exclusive for our course as it make our chance to secure a good job bleak
Academic is little of here and the infrastructure are little bit old

Mba in banking technology is only provided by Pondicherry University. Thats make it less competitive in the job market. University also provides placements. This year placement was very less and other departments can also for the placements provided by banks. This course prepare us specifically for banks thats make the job opportunities less

Me And Pondicherry University

Weekend tournaments like football matches held in the stadium where most of the students come.
The freedom we get in the university is immense. We can go out and come inside at any time.

Relationships and friendship being not true and mostly situational in nature.
Poor infrastructure where many problems with the infrastructure.

As today's world is more focused on globalisation and world is moving towards one market, MBA International Business has more relevance these days. We will come to study more about the conduct of business in a international perspective or platform. My inspiration to take the course is that we can learn about business in an international scale. It will prepare us to compete in an international stage of businesses. The curriculum also prepares for the real world experiences through internships and different programs such as management fests. The exams are conducted every semester and the difficulty level is moderate.

Campus of Pondicherry University is very good.
Faculties are very kind and they give their best to students.

Roads inside the University is not good.
Mess food is not good. sometimes i can't eat.

The mba specialised in banking Technology course offered by the pondicherry University is a good course and it's a unique course. Only the pondicherry University have this banking Technology specialisation in India.

3.4Helpful

The pondicherry University provides a great campus life for every students. They provide good infrastructure facilities inside campus. Well deciplined staffs and security to manage students
They provide enough freedom for the students. The faculties giving maximum support for every students and encourage students for growth in their career

The university should provide more number of placement opportunites. The number of placement bring by the university is very less.
In banking technology department, any placements came every students from any departments can be sit for the placements. But other departments are not allowing banking students to sit with their placements

It's a unique course, only pondicherry University provides this "MBA BANKING Technology"course across the country. But the course is not good for the carrier because basic MBA subjects are missing in this course. There is no specialization in this course. The course should add specialization and more MBA related subjects instead of Mtech subjects.

The course curriculum is good I think in central universities Pondicherry University is well known for their MBA courses and its currently relevant to the market. If we are talking about finance or operations everything is far better the professors also
