The application process was easy. The eligibility is 50% in any degree from a university and the admission was according to the CUET entrance exam and the scores of CUET. Students should register and attent the CUET Social Work entrance test.
Some papers need to be updated and should include topic related to current issues and more discussions are need to be conducted in the classroom that improves the critical thinking of the students. For Social Work course field exposure is very relevant and important to increase the knowledge of the trainee. But the department is not providing any field exposure to the trainees according to their specializations. The only field experience students are getting from the one month block placement/ internship, but that is not enough for the students.
For the Social Work students internship organizations are opted and searched by the students only. No oppotunities are provided by the university. In the second year there is one month entirely dedicated for block placement, students will search and apply in the organizations according to their own specializations.
The fee structure is divided into 4 semesters, students have to pay fees for each semester. The average fee for Social Work course per semester is around 7000 for OBC and General category students. The fees includes health, lab, library, students welfare etc. These are 600 each. Students have to pay the fee through the CUK app. SC/ST students have to pay around 4000 for each semester. Scholarships are not received till now.
The annual sports and cultural event is Ankur which is held in the month of April. There are no clubs or any society in the university. The range and accessibility of books and jornals in the library is quite good. The faculties are well equiped with technologies.
The hostel room is congested accomodating 4 students and it provides a study table chair and a cupboard for each student. The mess food is the worst. No quality and repeated menu. The hostel registration are done through the DSW office. The sanitation facility of the Kaveri hostel is very poor and the students complaints are not taken into consideration by the authorities. There is no PG vailable near to the campus.
Few faculties are biased and some are not. The department also requires more efficient faculties. The teaching skills of the faculties is good and some need to be updated in the area. Most of the faculties are old fashioned and are interested in the personal affairs of the students questionong their relationship status and judging them according to that.
The central university of Karnataka, they have a particular curriculum for every department. They conduct two sections of internal fir evaluating the perception capacity of the student. They publish an academic calendar in which they provide all the leave and internship details.
The course that I have chosen is MSW. The department is providing field work and internship opportunities which is a platform to apply the knowledges in real world. In a semester they are conducting 2 internal assessments which will help to assess and improve ourselves.
Their teaching style is so different. This method is helped to the students for improvement. The teachers all are interacting with all students and they asking to the students opinion for class time.
The subject that I chosen is social work. The department is providing opportunity for internship and field works which is helping to connect with society and to apply the learning and theoretical knowledges in real world.
the course provides a various opportunities in developing our skills and knowledge. there is experiential learning like fieldwork, camp, lifeskill training and soon. the methods of teaching varies from each faculties. every one have different mode of teaching. some give importance for the group discussions and they also helps in improving our presentation skills.
Curriculum is stick on to the outdated syllabus. Practical experience is missing. Theoretical knowledge is getting but practice is missing there. In this competitive world, we can't survive with this basic knowledge. Technological advancements are lacking and we are poor in managing it.
The entire curriculam was not at all satisfactory. It is not a updated curriculam an social work students didnt get any cuncurrent fieldwork and only classroom learning is provided in this university for the students.
firstly, I took this course by not looking through the curriculam. but the curriculam is perfect. it provide many experiential learnings for social work students. i'm statisfied with this curriculam because social work students need more field work rather than theory classes.
i have chooosen this cource and college for being outside my native place and learn klanguages for sake of my future and in interest with rural camps. but our camp and everthing was so poor. exposure was only given in academics, not in any other ways. field visiits are not here, in second semester we went for fieldwork in our vaccation time that too in our native due to language barrier, but we could have sorted out this if they are taking us for field visit.
Campus placement is offered by the university. From 4th sem the students are eligible for campus placement. Several companies visited university for campus placement which includes BHEL , Azim Premji etc.
