Good infrastructure and facilities, supportive faculty, and decent placement opportunities.

Infrastructure: The department has well-maintained classrooms with proper seating and ventilation, Wi-Fi facilities across the campus, a library well-stocked with textbooks, reference books, journals, and newspapers, and adequately equipped computer labs for practical learning, projects, and online work. While the hostel is very good, the food is average, the warden is good, and overall the infrastructure supports both academic and other needs effectively.

Faculty: The teachers are helpful, well-qualified, and knowledgeable in their respective subjects. Good teaching quality using a mix of lectures, discussions, and practical examples to help students understand concepts clearly, while the course curriculum is relevant and covers core subjects.

Other: I chose this course due to my interest in accounts, finance, and business studies. The best part of this course is the clear syllabus structure and practical exposure, with more industry interaction, skill-based training, workshops, and placement-focused programs.

Placements are decent, but HR expects students to have extra skills.

Good college for students.

Placements: Mostly customer service, and placement only works out if you are really skilled, the maximum LPA is 15 LPA, big companies like Accenture, Cognizant, etc., recruit, and not everyone gets a job because of skill issues, but if you are good at academics, it is easy to get one.

Infrastructure: Average food, but the room was tidy enough to stay with a good warden to maintain, the college has labs with a library which is really good to access, my department is the best with the most friendly staff, and I had a good time with them, I would recommend it.

Faculty: It is good, as it is an autonomous college the exams are conducted in its own way, different from other colleges, the exams are mostly easy to crack and not that difficult, and students are mostly provided with question banks before the exams.

Other: The college campus is really small, but it works out with academics and frequent events.
