My journey as a student in the college.
Placements: I think the college is not providing us with placements for BCA candidates. BCA is only a course at this college; no placements are being provided by them to us. We are trying to get off-side placement. So that we can get placed in other companies for our set future.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is very good as well. There is a huge library in the college on two floors, where a lot of books are provided to read according to the syllabus requirements. They have a huge number of computer centers in the college where we can play games as well.
Faculty: The faculty members are highly educated. All teachers hold the PhD qualification as faculty members in the college and those who are as guest faculty are master degree holder. They treat and guide us like our friends and tell us what to do for a better future.

Our college is good in all aspects.
Placements: About 20% of students got placed in our course. The highest salary package offered is 6 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 2.4 LPA. The salary packages depend on students' skills. Top recruiting companies TCS, Wipro, and Tata. Top roles offered are developer and tester.
Infrastructure: All classrooms are air-conditioned. Our campus has a huge library. Our campus is Wi-Fi enabled. Many labs are available in our college for different courses. The food served in the mess and canteen is good. Our college provides all the equipment for sports and games. Our college has four badminton courts, two volleyball grounds, a cricket ground, and an indoor stadium. Our college has an auditorium.
Faculty: Teachers are average. The teaching quality depends on every teacher. Some teachers are Ph.D. holders. The course curriculum is the best and makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are not much difficult if you study well.
Other: I opted for this course because I am interested in the IT industry. Our college should improve and make some societies or clubs on campus for student interaction. Events and fests are organised in our college auditorium. Our college provides scholarships to students.

Our college offers quality technical education at affordable cost.
Placements: Around 90% of students got placement offers after completing the course. Some students bagged offers, while few students rejected, and opted to pursue higher education. The highest salary package offered was 5 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered was 2.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Cognizant, TCS, Accenture, Wipro, etc. Around 10% of the students got internships in the banking sector as IT analysts. The roles offered are quality assurance analyst, developer, and system engineer.
Infrastructure: In our college, the infrastructure was top-notch including facilities like Wi-Fi, computer laboratories, centrally air-conditioned smart classrooms, and state of an art library. The quality of food served in the hostel was good and affordable. There were 24X7 medical facilities. Refreshment and entertainment include outdoor sports and indoor games.
Faculty: Teachers were very knowledgeable in their respective streams and very helpful. Their teaching quality was top-notch. The course was very relevant to the curriculum, and it makes students ready for industry. The semester exams are up to the mark, and not much difficult for students. The pass percentage will be around 95%.
Other: I opted for this course, because of my interest in it. The best things in this course include weekend classes conducted on the campus or getting anytime online classes from pre-recorded lectures. The college should guide online examinations. Events and college fests were also organised at times. Scholarships were offered to students who have scored above 60% of marks at graduation level. Extracurricular activities conducted here include social welfare as well.

It is a good college to get admission at a low academic percentage.
Placements: About 70% of students get placed from here. The highest salary package offered until now was 12.5 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 3 LPA. But the average salary package offered is 4 LPA. Top recruiters here are HDFC, Wipro, Hero Cycles, etc. I am in the 2nd semester and learning online now, so I don't have any knowledge about internships.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is not available in our hostel. For using Wi-Fi, you should go to the library. The library, labs and classrooms are excellent. The hostel is good, and mineral water is available in the hostel. There are elevators also, but I hate the food served here most. I stayed in the hostel only for a month, and I fell sick due to the poor quality of food. The canteen is available, and the medical facilities are good. There are also good sports and games.
Faculty: There are good teachers here, and they are helpful and qualified. Some teachers are much good, but not all. Even some of them are the worst. The course curriculum is the same as the other colleges. I think this course curriculum doesn't make students job-ready. For making students job-ready, colleges should teach the latest technologies like data science, AI, etc.
Other: ECE is a good course for students who are interested in both technical and non-tech fields. This was the reason for me to choose this course. I wish that our college should use technology to teach students. This may help students to learn better. Many events are organised here, and recently a tech-fest is held named Avahan.
