It is a request to all my young and energetic juniors, don't join this college.
Placements: There are very few placements for tourism sector and hospitality. Westin trident and lemon tree companies visit for hospitality sector students. Cox and Kings, Thomas Cook for the tourism sector students. Until the director Mr XXX is in the college, we cannot expect good placements.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is very pleasing. Tollywood movie scenes are shot here. Only 20MB Wi-Fi is available per day. Classrooms need to be expanded. For hostelers, medical facilities and doctor is available. There are no sports and games. A gym is available, but it is locked for many months. If we question our director about those things, he simply harasses students and makes 4 years degree for 7 years.
Faculty: Teachers are excellent, but the director is simply forcing hostel warden to take human resources management sessions to the students. Teachers did masters and are doctorates in their subjects. I think we should get much better exposure of the industry.
Other: No fest and no events. Approximately 1000 students are there in the campus. Poor Wi-Fi facility and no extracurricular activities.
