Pondicherry University night life with friends
Students can get in and out of hostel as they wish.

Dislikes

Not good food in hostel mess. I get sick from it and have health issues from mess food.
Transport facilities are very bad.The road is not in good condition, which can cause accidents.

Course Curriculum Overview:

There wasn't any specific reason and all for me to choose this particular course.But then again I did my graduation in social work...so I thought I might give this a try as well .So here I am, pursuing masters in social work in Pondicherry University.But as for me it was a big disappointment in some aspects. The department is not conducting any kinds of workshops and skill training. More theory focused. Which i think especially in social work it should be more skill based sessions, more outreach programs. More exposure shall be given than any other department.. because literally speaking you need those communication and social skills for this profession.So long story short If you want to have campus life you can come to Pondicherry University.it has good campus.But for higher education I'd say otherwise

I liked the greenery of the campus and the constant shade

Dislikes

I hate the mess facilities provided and the lack of an option to quit

Course Curriculum Overview:

It is a wonderful course curriculum in the sense that everything has been covered thoroughly to make the graduate eligible for NET exam. The fieldwork curriculum is also strong on paper but tends to fail when applied practically in most cases.

The department have 7 faculties for 62 students. Faculties have high qualifications and most of them have done their studies in more than one subject area. Before every exams conducted there is a faculty evaluation done by students and from that the best teacher of the year is selected. Exams are conducted timely and there is 2 internal per semesters along with assignments and seminars. If we put our best effort in those the exams are easy for us to pass.
