Ques
How is Goa University for an MCA What about faculty and placements?

● Top Answer By Prajakta Khandeparkar on 18 Oct 21

Ans
Goa University offers you with all the good aspects there are of a university. The students who have passed out from here will agree to it- about the faculty and placements as well.  The previous year students have the same feedback about the professors there like the present year students.  The faculty is very supportive and polite.  They make sure to keep you updated with all the latest technology.  They know what they are teaching and have in-depth knowledge of their specialised courses.  But do not leave it all to them because there has to be efforts from your side too.  It is always about give and take, it has to be both ways.  As for the placement, certainly, some good companies and IT MNCs come for the recruitment and if you have it in you, then you can crack the interview as well.  You will have to make sure to keep your result up to a level and appear for the interviews.  It is not easy but if you set your mind to it, then it is possible. You can talk directly to the alumni to find out more about the intricacies of the course and the college.

Ques
Can you tell me more about Goa University?

● Top Answer By Shraddha Chauhan on 18 Oct 21

Ans
One of my friends studied at Goa University. According to him, it has a very small campus when compared to other colleges of the same category. But well, it has so much more to offer than the area of campus.  There are a number of different programs offered for you to do your graduation in.  The management is very reliable and the admin team makes it run better than the other colleges.  The faculty is very supportive and you get good placements coming to the university.  Even though people feel that there is not much exposure at Goa University, it is not true. There have been many students who would prove that they have grabbed some very good opportunities by passing out from Goa University.  Categories Goa University Course Fee 2.9 lakh Placement Percentage 70-80% Highest CTC 13 LPA Average CTC 7 LPA Lowest CTC 3.5 LPA Recruiting Companies Infosys, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, Tata, etc. Lastly, it is important that you excel in the degree that you choose to pursue. It depends on you and what you seek out of your graduation.

Ques
How does one get a gold medal in engineering under Goa University?

● Top Answer By Kriya Acharya on 18 Oct 21

Ans
Goa University has a different system to calculate the marks and percentage of a student.  The aggregate of your last 4 semesters is considered and an aggregate percentage is calculated as - {(5+6)/2 +7+8)}/03 Next, you need to be at the top among all the colleges that come under Goa University- GCE, PCCE, DBCE, RIET, AITD and not just the one where you study. If you top among all the branches of these colleges, then you will be presented awards at the convocation. Although not all the toppers get a gold medal, so you need to check with your department if they have it or not.  It is up to you and not just about getting the gold medal. It is about gaining knowledge, your growth, and making sure that you plan your career and get a job of your interest.
