My college and my course review.

Placements: In my course, a larger number of students were placed. The highest package is 10 LPA. Styker is the top recruiter.

The available teachers are knowledgeable, and the teaching is good for a larger number of teachers.

Other: Students should focus more on the core company, which should increase the demand for the course. Higher studies for this are available in different countries, and job offers are also available in different countries.
