Satisfied with course curriculum and teachers. But labs needs to be renovated.
Placements: Most of the companies that visit the campus are from the service sector. Students of our senior batches got their jobs only through competitive exams but not through any campus placement drives. However, placement drives are about to start by July this year (2019). Some students also started working as TAs (teaching assistants) in the same college after the completion of their masters for a salary of Rs. 30,000 and some students also got placed as research associates with a daily payment of Rs. 350 per day.
Infrastructure: Facilities provided in our college are average. Only a few departments are having good labs, and one can do any research activities in those labs. The library is not up to the mark, and we don't even have any reading room available here. The library is not much spacious, and there only a few books available there. The library doesn't even have any updated editions. Our hostels are newly renovated, but they can't be able to offer accommodation facilities to all the students as the batch size is growing every year. They need to provide additional rooms. Quality of food offered is low here.
Faculty: Faculty members of our college were highly qualified and highly resourceful. Thet teach using all possible means. They offer both theoretical and practical knowledge. The faculty to student ratio in the master's courses is 1: 5. We have been to research institutes as a part of our course curriculum.
Other: Extracurricular activities are given much importance. Inter-college sports and art events are conducted every year. The campus is beautiful with greenery all around. The campus is not easily accessible as it's situated far from the city.
