    College Infrastructure

    The College is 100 years old. But the infrastructure shows that it's a new one. The college has well-equipped auditoriums, restrooms, seminar halls, and classrooms. Most classrooms have projectors and screens. Each floor has fire extinguishers, and the college follows all safety measures. The college has four blocks; Two are within the campus and the other two are outside the campus, which are mainly for management studies and science stream. All students are provided with WiFi facility. The has got enough hostel facilities; one inside the campus and the other near the science block. overall, St. Teresa's has the best infrastructure facility. All block has their own cafeteria.

    Engaging campus, some improvements needed.

    Verified Review

    College Infrastructure

    When it comes to infrastructure my college is average.It does have good classrooms, a library, a huge auditorium, seminar hall etc but unfortunately, unlike many schools, St Teresa's lacks dedicated campus grounds for outdoor activities and events.It doesn't have enough classrooms to for students which lead to a shift system where some departments have morning sessions and rest have afternoon sessions. Personally i find that the bathrooms are not kept very clean, which is a little unpleasant. Despite being a girls' college, it lacks a proper system for disposing of pads and does not provide a vending machine for easy access to menstrual hygiene products. We have a cafe at our main block.. The one at central block is not yet opened.

    Once a teresian is always a teresian.

    College Infrastructure

    We have a huge library and two auditoriums and a gym and three blocks. Though there are no chill out spots as the college is situated in the centre of the city...all the near by places becomes a part of college..
