In our college, the fee is very low because it is a government college and good people are teachers.

Placements: Placements are fully organised by our college alumni, and it is highly rated. Top MNCs do not visit the college for placements. Some top companies like Zoho, Titan, etc., visit the college. Not everyone in our course is placed, and some students are not placed. There are no 100% placements in our college.

Coaching satisfies the fee we pay.

Placements: The average placement action was done at the campus. The salary package was moderate, which was high enough for students looking for 5 PA to 10 LPA. The minimum package was 2.8 LPA, the moderate package was 3.4 LPA, and the highest package was 6.5 LPA.

M.E. in environment engineering, 2020.

Placements: Roughly half of the students from this class got offered. And few of them are looking for other jobs. Training for placements would be started from the pre-final years. Only a small amount was charged for placement training. The pay scale would be dangerous between 2.5 LPA to 5.1 LPA depending upon the company.

Placement coaching is valuable for the money.

Placements: The rate of placement did not fulfill my expectations rate. About 67 percent of students got placed in every department. Core industries usually actively take place in drives. Finally, placements need to concentrate on entrepreneurship.

Higher credit to the college management.

Placements: Placement classifies skills into two categories: one is hard skills, which cover most of the technical skills required for the subject, and the other is non-technical, which covers soft skills like communication. To learn all these skills, we were required to pay for professional training. The maximum pay scale for the Department of Structural Engineering would be 4.5 Lacs.
