A best pick for good education and living a fun life.

Placements: In our college, 12-15 companies came for interviews, offering opportunities in various fields like designing, consultancy, site work, estimating, sales, and RMC plant. Around 60-65% of students were placed, and the rest were helped to get placements. The minimum package was ₹13,000, and the maximum was ₹25,000. The top recruiters were Vedanta and Ultratech.

Infrastructure: The college provides us with computer labs, equipped AC, and auditorium halls with the latest technologies. The classrooms are a bit old-fashioned, with traditional furniture and blackboards along with projectors. Each department has separate buildings, each with high-speed 5G networks. The hostels are not very comfortable, and the canteen food is average with inadequate seating. The campus includes a gymnasium with various activities, a large ground, and an indoor court.

Faculty: The course I chose is civil engineering, which teaches us about the construction of roads, railways, airports, bridges, and buildings. It also has good placement opportunities in real life. The course should focus more on practical knowledge rather than theoretical knowledge, and there should be more time allotted for internship programs. There are many events, including inter-college events and inter-department events like Tandav, which are related to the respective departments. There are also many technical events that provide various aspects for student growth and the application of their skills. The college has various clubs and sports activities like cricket, football, table tennis, badminton, chess, etc.

It is a good college if you are ready to put in some extra effort and focus.

Placements: Placements are decent. You have to have something different. You have to prepare all your core topics and have projects mentioned in your resume. Since it's not an NIT-level college, you will have to make some extra effort in order to get placed on-campus.

Infrastructure: Labs have good facilities. If you are in the IT department, you could also carry your own laptop if you have some trouble with the department labs. The labs are air-conditioned and equipped with Wi-Fi. Classrooms are also huge but not that smart. The library is huge and could easily meet your needs. The infrastructure is good overall. When it comes to hostels, all sorts of hostels are available. Even though they are good, apply for it as soon as possible.

Faculty: Teachers are really insightful and have good knowledge. The first-year teachers are fine since the portion is also not so great, but after the first year, the level increases. It also depends on the interests of the student. The curriculum is good, as mentioned after the first year. The subjects start to get interesting. The exams are above average in difficulty. If you study, you can score well enough.

Infrastructure: Our college has a huge campus consisting of hostels with mess facilities, a library, a gymkhana, an infinity ground, a canteen, etc. Our hostels also have Wi-Fi facilities. The mess serves good quality food. During my entire degree course, i.e., 4 years, I stayed in the hostel.

Semester exams are tough, but if you study regularly and strategically, it is very easy to pass. During the final year, students have to submit their project, which should solve any real-time problem.
