Review of Centre for Development of Advanced Computing.

Placements: Almost 100% of the students got placed some in a week or some after months. In our course, the highest salary package offered was 12 LPA, the lowest salary package offered was 2.5 LPA and the average salary package offered was 4 LPA. Companies like Conduent, L&T and Happiest Minds are the top recruiters of our college. Students are offered with roles like software developer and assistant software developer. None of the students got an internship.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi was not available, but there was a LAN facility which was enough to study. Classrooms were well-equipped with boards and other facilities. In the hostel, 4 members can share each room. The mess was average, but there was no canteen. Hence we were ordering online much of a time. There was a sports area where we were playing volleyball.

Faculty: Faculty members in our college were very helpful and highly qualified. They worked somewhere with windows team also and were well-knowledgeable. Teaching quality was of high level. The course curriculum was a bit relevant as whatever they taught was 90% practical. It makes students industry-ready.

Other: I have chosen this course because I find myself interesting in computer-related fields. The highest thing about this course is it's very demanding in the market nowadays. Everything was good, but the only thing is the duration is only 6 months which should be extended to 6 more months. Nothing was done as the course was only 6 months. We celebrated the new year party.

Good placements, helpful faculty, better infrastructure and value for money.

Placements: Placements in the college are good. Last year around 42 companies came to the college for placements. The lowest salary package offered is around 3 lacs per annum, the average package is around 4 to 5 lacs per annum, and the highest package was 11 lacs per annum. For those who want to continue their studies, can get a job in the R&D department of CDAC. The college provides a platform for internships, and it is okay.

Infrastructure: As it is a government college, the infrastructure is good while the nearby locality is not habitable. So I recommend students to apply for the hostel. The hostel rooms are quite spacious, and the food in the hostel is very good. For someone who has experienced PGs or flat food, the hostel food will be like a haven for them. The academic block and cafeteria have centralized AC while the hostel rooms do not. The only problem I am facing is due to the bugs as there are two grounds which attract mosquitoes and bugs too. A cleanliness freak can easily adjust in this environment.

Faculty: The quality of faculty members here is okay. The faculty members are helpful, but they are stick to the curriculum and do not provide any extra knowledge. To be specific, there are around 60 students in one class in MCA. Extracurricular activities are not conducted on campus, and the societies here are not that active. If you are a sports freak, then the ground is all yours. There are no restrictions, but one should be maintaining the decorum of the campus.

Other: Connectivity to the college is good. The nearest metro station is Noida city centre, and soon after the extension of DMRC blue line, the connectivity will be improved. An auto rickshaw usually takes Rs. 15 to take you to the nearest metro station.

Studying in CDAC ACTS, Pune is totally worth it.

Placements: The placements are good in CDAC ACTS, Pune. Students get placed. In 2015, February batch, a good number of students got placed. The salary expected and salary offered totally depend on one's calibre and luck. There were companies like Atos, Barclays, Bitwise, Mobicule and the list is endless. CDAC provides an ample of opportunities but must be suggested, it is a postgraduate course, and people come to do it with lots of expectations, especially regarding salary. The college should not bring companies which offer Rs. 80,000 per annum. It is really disheartening for CDAC Acts people as they have come to ACTS after beating the cut-throat competition at all India level.

Infrastructure: The college has the world-class infrastructure. Once you get into CDAC, you feel the environment of an outstanding multinational company, and that's where the dream starts to land up with a good job. In terms of infrastructure and lab facilities, no institute can be in power with CDAC. I studied in the older centre in Aundh, now, they have relocated though. The canteen in CDAC ACTS had mouth-watering food even at late evening hours, around 10 pm.

Faculty: The faculty and course curriculum are outstanding. The course is designed such that it requires lots of efforts from the students too. The classes start early in the morning and continue till late evening, and each subject has allotted hours for the completion of syllabus. After completing each module, an assessment is conducted, which is mandatory.

The students also go for pool placement held in NCR colleges. You will get good attention in the college. Recently, Motorola came for placement hired 5 students.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi classrooms, Wi-Fi labs, smart professors. The college infrastructure is comfortable for the students. The college has its own hostel. The hostel is neat and clean. Fooding is awesome. You will get three-star services in the hostel mess. Hostel rooms are two-seater. The college is situated in a peaceful area.

Faculty: Every faculty member has a doctorate degree. They all are experts in their fields. You can do M.Tech in VLSI, MBA in IT, MCA and also post graduate diploma in specific fields. M.Tech from CDAC is affiliated WITH Shri Guru Govind Singh Indraprastha University. You might also get further admission through GATE.

Other: CDAC Noida is known for its DAC Courses but MCA is also a better option if you want to do in a reasonable fee structure. Faculty - The teachers are good but also there are a few who are very bad at teaching and they teach you every semester. This is one of the major drawbacks of CDAC. Overall it is good. But you can complain and change the faculty if you do not like it. The administrative department is very helpful to the students. Scholarship - Scholarship up to 30000 is provided to economically weak students. It is based on the interview. Timing - Classes starts from 10:00 am and could run up to 5:00 pm. Also, there are days when classes end at 1:00 or 2:00. Saturday and Sunday are off. Transportation- College Buses are provided to faculties but students can also take the service. From Noida City Center -9:00 am, 9:30 am and 9;50 am. From College to NCC at 5:00 pm From Vaishali- 8:30 am From college to Vaishali-4:30 pm and 6:15 pm. Bus service is provided free of cost. Also, shared autos run from NCC to Fortis Hospital in Rs.15 and from Fortis, it would take 5 mins to reach the college. From Vaishali, it is complicated as you have to arrive at NH-24 near IBM. From there you can take another auto to reach College. Hostel - Hostel facility is provided to students and is allotted mostly to outside Delhi students. Food is good and non-hostel students can do their lunch in the mess at a reasonable price. For those who have been not allotted hostel, they can take PG rooms in sector-55,56. and if you want to rent out a flat you can take that in sec-22. It takes 25 min to reach college from there. If you have a bike or car you can rent out in Pandav Nagar, near Akshardham. Location - It is located in Noida sector-62 B-block, so there are not many places to hangout for students. You can visit Stellar IT Park. Infrastructure - Not that big since very few courses are available but it is okay. There is a playground for cricket, a basketball court and volleyball. Placement - Placement depends on your knowledge and skills. Companies like Intelligrape, NCR, TCS come every year and give packages of 3.5 lakh. Many other companies also visit and provide package above 4.5 but they have percentage restrictions. Fee Structure- Fee is 60000 per annum which is quite less as compared to other colleges of IP and no extra amount is taken on the name of other facilities as in private colleges.

Review of Centre for Development of Advanced Computing.

Placements: The placement cell is working good to invite companies for the placements. Most of the placements offered by the college are pool placements. Roles like a data scientist, software engineers and software developers are offered to the students. The average salary package offered ranges between 3.50-4 LPA till now.

Infrastructure: Computer labs are good and well connected with the internet. New powerful computers are also available here. Wi-Fi facility is available for students. The library is also good. Our college does not conduct sports competitions. Food served in the canteen is hygienic and economical. Classrooms are air-conditioned.

Faculty: Many teachers in our college are highly qualified. They have ample knowledge of their subjects. Few faculty members do not have enough knowledge, and they just come and pass the time. Our college provides one teacher for sixty students. The course curriculum is useful and helpful.

Other: Our college does not conduct extracurricular activities for students.
