Good college if you are ready to learn by yourself.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good. There is no Wi-Fi in computing block for students access. Labs are clean. Library is easily accessible and good. Hostel and mess are good. Hostel mess is okay when you can adjust to the normal, minimal food that is not too tasty. Hostel rooms are good.

I am dissatisfied with infrastructure, but teaching is good. There is no importance to sports.

Infrastructure: The food is not good, and the infrastructure of the college is very bad. Wi-Fi isn't provided for students, and the library is the only good thing in this college. There are many bad things about this college as well as good things. It also has many club facilities.

CIT is esteemed for its academics.

Infrastructure: While CIT provides essential facilities, some students have noted that certain infrastructure aspects are dated and could benefit from renovation. Nonetheless, the campus is spacious, with a large library housing over 125,000 books, and classrooms that are neat, spacious, and well-ventilated.

Learning phase of the life.

Infrastructure: 4-5 specific labs are available for every department, which is provided with every piece of equipment that is needed for potential engineers but the infrastructure is old and outdated as the college was built in 1950s. The college recently started the renovating process, which is going on.
