Review of GITAM School of Technology, Visakhapatnam.

Placements: I’d say that the Cyber Security specialization at GITAM isn’t that strong. The main reason is that very few security-related companies visit the campus for placements. So far, I’ve only seen one, which is VISA, and they take just a single intern based on CGPA. On the other hand, general placements are handled quite well. The GCDC (GITAM Career Development Centre) provides good training in communication, reasoning, and management skills. While big tech companies rarely recruit here, plenty of smaller firms visit regularly, giving students fair chances to start their careers. If I remember correctly, the highest package is 46.6 LPA.

Infrastructure: This is one area where GITAM truly stands out. The campus has Wi-Fi almost everywhere. Most labs have well-functioning computers, with some equipped with high-performance systems. The library facilities are excellent. They offer free access to Athens and Scopus research papers. Nearly all classrooms and labs are air-conditioned, making it comfortable to study. The canteen serves reasonably priced food. The quality is generally good, sometimes even great. GITAM students also receive discounted treatment at GIMSR Hospital. Sports facilities are top-notch, including badminton, cricket, table tennis, volleyball, basketball, football, and pickleball. There is even a gym open to all students.

Faculty: I have a mixed opinion about this. Some teachers are genuinely very good. They know how to teach well. While others are unfortunately not up to the mark. The curriculum itself is decent but nothing exceptional or career-changing. If you are aiming for a good job. You probably need to focus more on self-learning than relying solely on the syllabus. The exam pattern is quite strict, maybe even too strict at times, and failing a subject can create serious issues later on. The difficulty of semester exams really varies. Sometimes they are extremely hard. Sometimes they are fairly straightforward.

Other: Extracurricular activities at GITAM are one of the best aspects of campus life. There are plenty of clubs. Most of them are quite active with regular events and activities. You’ll find clubs for almost every interest, arts, tech, books, anime, and more. Students are even encouraged to start their own clubs, which makes the environment very open and creative. When it comes to student safety, the administration takes it seriously and acts strictly if any issues arise. Overall, GITAM is a college you can consider.

The college atmosphere is very good. good to learn and enjoy. I am very much satisfied.

Placements: 40% of the students are placed in my cybersecurity course. The highest and the lowest package offered for a cyber security role is 7.6LPA by Deloitte, the only company to conduct a drive for cyber roles. Cognizant, TCS, Accenture, and Capgemini massively recruited. No internships are offered. Deloitte offered a cyber role.

Infrastructure: The classrooms are very advanced L1 classrooms. The whole campus is Wi-Fi enabled. The Knowledge Resource Center library has a vast collection of books and knowledge. Hospitality is very good. Blankets are provided every day, food is very good in the hostel, and the canteen has decent prices and quality. There is a GIMS hospital easily accessible. There is an indoor and outdoor stadium and a high class gym which is free for students.

Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and very knowledgeable. Their teaching is very good. I think the course curriculum has some distance from the industry. Semester exams are only for 30 marks, and we need to get 10 marks. 70 is the internal, which includes minds, assignments, and quizzes.

Other: India needs so many cyber engineers, I took this course. The placements could be better, especially for the cyber roles. Deloitte offered the cyber role in the whole placement. Events were well organized and students can have their best college life.

College life is beautiful with a challenging curriculum and colorful fests.

Placements: 60 to 70% of the students registered for placements got placed in good companies with a decent package. Only 5% of the students got placed in a package above 10LPA. The highest package offered is 36 LPA, and the lowest package offered is 3.6LPA. We have top recruiting companies like Darwinbox, Micron Technologies, Accenture, TCS, and Deloitte recruiting a decent number of students. Around 50% of the students got internships in companies like PGS, State Street, and are later given full time working opportunities.

Infrastructure: The rooms, both A/C and Non A/C, are well maintained with thorough cleaning regularly. The mess provides a 4 course meal, including evening snacks, offering varied and nutritious food to accommodate students from different states and countries as well.

Faculty: Teachers are knowledgeable enough to teach and clarify doubts regarding the respective subjects. Will also guide students in writing and publishing research papers. The course curriculum mostly comprises inculcating practical knowledge into students. The semester exam is moderately difficult but very challenging.

Other: I chose the particular course as it offers knowledge in various departments like IoT, AI, Data analytics, etc. This gives varied career options to choose from. A little more training regarding the work life in corporates would have been helpful.

You can really have your best student life while having a good learning experience.

Placements: The placements were very average. In my cyber stream, only 40% are getting placed, 20% choose higher studies, and the remaining are not placed. The highest was 8.5 LPA. And the lowest is 3.3. The average package is 5 LPA. Companies like Accenture and TCS recruited the students.

Infrastructure: The campus is a Wi-Fi campus. Labs are well-equipped, and most of the classrooms are L1 AC classrooms. Library has many books available and the discussion rooms as well. The food was very hygienic and well-maintained. There is a GIMSR hospital where you can have the medical facility available 24 hrs, and the consultation is free for Gitam students.

Faculty: The teachers were very helpful, and many of them are Ph.D. holders. But for some courses, some faculty members were assigned irrespective of their interest and experience. 70 internal and 30 external, we need to get 50% marks for some subjects, which are absolute grades. For relative grading, the subjects' pass percentage will be dynamic.

Other: As many cyber frauds are going on, I took this course. I wish some experienced people from the cyber industry could teach better. The events are going very well. You can have your best student life.

Review of GITAM School of Technology, Visakhapatnam.

Placements: My computer science and engineering provided good placements. The percentage rate was 75%. The highest package was 34 LPA, and the lowest package was 4 LPA. Top companies were Microsoft, Flipkart, Amazon, and Google. My course internship percentage was 60% at companies like Wipro.

Infrastructure: College infrastructure was very nice. Not only was my course department but all the course department infrastructure was very nice. Wi-Fi was not there. Classrooms were good. Library had all types of books. Hostel facilities were good, and food was also nice. There were two canteens in our college. Canteens were good. Medical facilities and sports were good.

Faculty: Teachers were really helpful with any kind of doubts. Teachers were highly qualified like master's, Ph.D, etc. Teaching quality was good. My course was relevant to software engineering and not an industry field. Semester exams were not difficult. Exams were moderate. The pass percentage was 80%.
