The college has good infrastructure and good decorum; it is average in socializing.
Placements: Placement life stuff is average, but companies like Amazon and other big companies come. However, it depends on the student's ability to secure placement. It's hard to make placements because it's private, but we have the opportunity to take a placement in this college because companies come.
Infrastructure: Good infrastructure, like hotel hostels, nice roads, chairs, planted roads, decorum, all good. We have a basketball court and an auditorium. We have performances and modeling. All good things, like infrastructure, main buildings, and modeling, are available.
Faculty: Our college has good teachers, and every teacher is well educated. They use meaningful words to explain. Nice decorum is maintained in class, good infrastructure, and all good things. Average in socializing; students are not in decorum as well, thinking about that, but don't show it. All that is good.

Infrastructure: There is modern infrastructure, smart classes, labs, and a library. There are quite good quality facilities in the hotel like neat and clean rooms, a canteen till 10:00 PM, a mess with quality food, and a sports room. A medical facility is also available. Also 24/7 security is there to ensure the safety of every single student.
Faculty: Teachers are really helpful during the semesters and they have great experience in teaching with quality knowledge. It makes students industry-ready.

The college has really good infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: 50% students got placement from my college in my degree, and the offer letters are all too good. Like the highest packages are sometimes in crores, but these are rare, most common are 10 to 12 LPA. So, it is a good university/college for admission.
Infrastructure: There are all the facilities in my university, like Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and a library. All the amenities are very good. The hostel has all the facilities. The quality of food is also very good, and there is a different mess menu every day and celebrates everything.

Decent college with average placements, good campus life and good infrastructure.
Placements: Around 65-75% students got placed. The highest package was almost 12 LPA. The top recruiter company was TCS. About 50 to 60% students got an internship. Top roles were software developer, web developer, graphic designer and Product manager. Overall, college placement is good. 
Infrastructure: The college provides very good infrastructure for the Computer Science department. Classrooms are equipped with projectors, and labs have basic systems for coding. Sometimes the lab's computer and pc don't work because of some issue, and the wiring is not properly done; otherwise, it's good. 
Faculty: Faculty members are generally helpful and qualified. They still need to get updated on AI and the latest technology. The pass percentage is quite high, about 70 to 80%, and everyone is allowed to pass the exam with a good percentage, or else they have to retake the exam.

Absolutely dissatisfied and regret my decision to get admission here.
Placements: There is no placement for MLT students as it is a clinical course and students have to work in a hospital or labs but they do provide an internship in the 8th semester which is for all the students and every student has to attend the mandatory internship.
Infrastructure: I won't lie, the labs are not as good as I expected. The machines don't work, and the management is really bad. For the hostel, as I stay in a girls' hostel, the facilities are average, but according to the fees, they still lack in most parts. The management does not listen and will not care about students. You are not allowed to use the lift although our department is on the 6th floor. We don't even have a lab for anatomy even though it is one of our core subjects. They don't approve of medical leave.
Faculty: The faculty is cooperative but most of them don't know how to teach they got jobs because of connections or experience. Curriculum is not designed as per the government rules and exams are easy but for me I am not satisfied with the overall experience of the university. I hope this gets better and the management will improve. I would still suggest you not take admission here.
Other: I wanted to experience the lab life and wanted to explore this side of the clinical work but I am very disappointed in that case. If you are interested in attending events and concerts and not really serious about studies this college is for you but for students like me who are really serious about their future and career and are sincere about studies who don't like attending events too often this university is for you.

Good infrastructure and campus life, decent academics, but placements need improvement.
Placements: BBA batch (ongoing). Around 60-70% students get placed. The highest package is 8 LPA, the lowest is 2.5 LPA, and the average is 4 LPA. Top recruiters are TCS, Infosys, and Wipro. About 50% get internships in marketing & HR firms. Roles offered are Sales Executive, HR Assistant, and Marketing Executive. 
Infrastructure: The college has Well-equipped classrooms with smart boards, Wi-Fi, computer labs, and a good library. Hostels are clean with basic facilities. Mess food is average but hygienic. Medical help is available. Sports grounds, gym, and games facilities are well-maintained. 
Faculty: Teachers are mostly helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable; teaching quality is decent. The curriculum is relevant but needs more practical exposure to be fully industry-ready. Semester exams are moderate, with a high pass percentage of around 80-90%.
Other: BBA batch (ongoing). Choose it for business knowledge and career options. Best: basics of management, presentations, and exposure. Improve: more practical learning & placements. Good fests, crowd, connectivity, and extracurricular activities.

Good university with a nice campus and learning opportunities.
Placements: Placements are decent. Many companies visit the campus, but getting a good package depends on your skills and performance. The university also provides training support. The university also provides additional support for placement via training programmes like winning camps and domain camps, where the core focus is on technical skills and personality development.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is one of the best parts. The campus is clean, modern, and has well-equipped labs, libraries, and hostels, which make student life comfortable. The university also provides additional support for sports and has a separate sports complex for it. The university is very clean, and the atmosphere is very good.
Faculty: Faculty members are helpful and supportive. The curriculum is updated and focuses on both theory and practical knowledge. Exams are manageable if you study regularly, the exam and curriculum are good and add value, all is good, and if a student fails, the reappear fee is also not high.

I had a wonderful experience at university.
Placements: Top companies like Microsoft, Google, and Infosys visit the campus for placements. The average package offered for the CSE students is 9 LPA, and the highest package offered is 54 LPA inside India, and outside India, it is 1.7 crores per year. 85-90 percent of students get placements in this university. In this university, we have to maintain a CGPA of above 7.5 to get a good placement. To attend an interview at a good company, we must also have a CGPA of above 7.5.
Infrastructure: Our college has world-class infrastructure. Wi-Fi is available on campus and in the hostel rooms. There are natural surroundings and hostels. We get high-quality hostel rooms. Classrooms are air-conditioned in the university. The food in the hostel mess is average in my opinion. There are private canteens in the college premises, so students can eat on their own. The environment is full of positivity and enthusiasm. The university also helps students who are interested in games, like cricket, football, and indoor games like carrom, chess, and table tennis. Labs are equipped with high-quality PCs.
Faculty: Faculty members are supportive of all students. The course curriculum is so nice. There are 2 mid-semester exams and a final end-semester exam. To keep in touch with studies, there are 3 practical assessments. Courses are quite practical and industry-related.
Other: The university organises many fests for students to remove the burden from students, and it welcomes big Bollywood actors and actresses for the enjoyment of students. The crowd is large, and we know that there are many students from different states who are connected through a university. The course is so good, so no improvement is required, but one improvement can be on the hostel side, as the food must be improved. A variety of food should be given to students.
