B.Tech. in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science - Batch of 2025

Offered by IcfaiTech School, IFHE Hyderabad

2Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

I'm absolutely dissatisfied because of the placements in 2025.

Placements: According to my knowledge, atleast 60% of students were not placed. And in the remaining 40% students, the maximum number of students got into the non-tech field (students who studied in CSE, AIDS and the remaining tech branches ). All the students are very disappointed with the college placements cell and the faculty. They didn't respond properly.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of hostels is not up to the mark when compared to the fees they are taking from the students. As far as my knowledge goes, they are taking 84k as hostel fee, and the food is not satisfactory. College facilities like Wi-Fi are good (free Wi-Fi everywhere on the whole campus). Classrooms are good, but the air conditioning was not working properly.

Faculty: Teachers are like they will come to teach what they are prepared. If you ask more than that, they will not even talk about the thing. About the curriculum, students are not industry-ready. They teach the old technology to students. The faculty does not even know the future technologies.

Other: Only one to three minor fests for B.Tech, like sports, tech fests, etc., are held.

In general about the college

Placements: Mostly students join here for higher studies, so don’t expect much placements. Placements are around 50 percent with an average package of 5 LPA. Regarding the top recruiting companies, you can check the website. Accenture, Amazon, Deloitte, HDFC Bank, Infosys, Wipro, Capgemini, ICICI Bank, and ITC are the top recruiters. Getting an internship is compulsory as part of the curriculum. They basically need a certificate and proof for the same.

Infrastructure: It’s a big college with good infrastructure. We have well-equipped labs and Wi-Fi everywhere. No compromises on infrastructure here. The library is good with a decent number of books. The canteen food is nice and offers a variety of options. There are many grounds for different sports, so you can play anytime.

Faculty: We have experienced faculty members who have a minimum of 10 years of teaching experience and interact with students in class, except for a few who only teach the curriculum. Regarding the curriculum and exams, they are not very tough. The papers are prepared by our separate branch faculty and range from moderate to hard.

I have described all the factors about this college.

Placements: The placement cell of this college is less active, and the placement percentage is average. 35-40% of students get a placement offer. Companies like RBS, Genpact, and Oberoi are giving job offers at my college. Others who have not been placed sit in the Central Placement Office of this university.

Infrastructure: The college campus is so beautiful and spans in very huge area. Our college is on a total of 95 acres. The hostel rooms are properly maintained and clean. The food is so tasty and hygienic. Each and every room has an attached bathroom. All staff members are so kind and helpful to students.

Faculty: Most of the faculty members are highly qualified and well-experienced. They always stand for helping students. Their teaching method is great and provides the best notes. They are kind and friendly in nature. The college conducts internal, semester, and lab exams properly. The faculty members solve all doubts of the students.

Other: The college placement cell needs to be improved.
