Literally, 95% of students who studied there got placed, so there was no need to worry about placements. The highest package offered was 8 LPA, and the lowest was 5 LPA. Internships were also good.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure was also well-maintained. Classrooms and library were kept so neat. The quality of the hostel was excellent, the food was good, and they organized sports and cultural every year, which were so good.

Faculty: Teachers were well-trained, skilled, and knowledgeable, and their teaching quality was terrific. I have to say, the semester exams were kind of tough, but if you put in enough hard work, you could definitely clear them. The passing percentage was 50%. Faculty members and the staff there were very good.

Other: I had a passion for this course, so I chose it. I mean, it would have been good if they had changed the syllabus. Events, fests, and scholarships were amazing here.
