Good campus and campus life. Good option for studying.

Placements: Till 2022, the placement rates were really high. Later, the number of companies recruiting starts decreasing. It also depends on other factors. Mainly, companies like TCS recruit from this college. Many students here also bring their own business ideas and start-ups.

Infrastructure: The college provides good food in the canteen and hostel mess. Wi-Fi is also available. We have many new academic blocks, and a new block for the men's hostel is also under construction. The infrastructure is good. Wi-Fi is available in the hostel and sometimes on campus as well. We also have a library with a wide collection of books for reference.

Faculty: The pass percentage is always over 90%. Even though university syllabus is outdated. The technical clubs organize many talk sessions, webinars, and workshops for studying and gaining knowledge in various fields. We can also learn through hands-on experience.

Other: This course brings us into the field of electronics. It also allows us to study other related fields that are going to be important in the technical industry.

Absolutely top to explore engineering knowledge but a little backward in placements.

Placements: The students who placed last year were below 10 in our course. They are placed in a company that does not belong to the core subjects. More IT companies are offering placements. When it comes to internships there is a huge number of students who are selected as interns about 70 percent.

Infrastructure: Our college infrastructure is very nice. Lab and department libraries are there. There is a special section for our department. The central library is in the new block. We are in the main block. In addition to this new robotics lab is ongoing with its construction and infrastructural works. When it comes to hostel it's above average. I'm a hostler I know very well. New blocks, in addition to the A and B blocks for men are under ongoing construction. For ladies there are 3 blocks.

Faculty: Some faculty members are top-notch. But most of them failed to convey the knowledge to students. Students will cover all the portions before the exam. Curriculum is based on the KTU University 2024 scheme. 4 modules are there for each theory course and 10 experiments for lab courses. The failure percentage is very low nearly below 10 percent.

Great faculty members, but the worst university.

Placements: This year, only around 20% of the students were placed in the whole 2021 batch, in which only 15 students got placed from my department. The highest package was 15 LPA, the lowest being 3 LPA, and the average is around 4-5 LPA. The top recruiter this year was UST. Less than 20% of students got internships during our studies.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is pretty bad as of now, really old buildings, and most of the water filters are always under maintenance. The windows are mostly broken, the fans are not working regularly, and power cuts. The hostel is pretty pocket-friendly, but that being said, the quality and hygiene are pretty low. The food they offer is above average, and it does have a basketball court and space to have fun.

Faculty: Faculty members are top-notch in this college; everyone has a great understanding of what they teach and how to schedule classes and topics. The curriculum that my college follows is very outdated and responsible. Hectic schedule - a fraudulent attempt from the university to draw money from students in the name of an insurance scheme and a fake evaluation scheme, where they just keep the money and never value the paper again.

Other: I chose this course out of my interest in the ECE field, and that being said, I was offered a scholarship to study abroad, which I applied for on my own- thanks to my professors and never the university. The university is one of the worst there is, which solely runs on the purpose of making money.

It has a really good hostel and infrastructure.

Placements: About 10 students get placed. The top recruiting company is L&T. Placements are comparatively low here. Students with above-average CGPA get placements. In overall departments, there are placements. But compared to CET and GECT, placements here are low.

Infrastructure: There is Wi-Fi in the college and hostels. There are required labs with good facilities. The quality of food available at the hostel is great. Facilities and qualities of the hostel are impressive. The most important thing is the hostel provides quality food.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful for studies. The pass percentage is gradually increasing now, which is good for students and the college. Teachers help during the lab sessions and clear doubts. Some faculty members are not much helpful, but most of them are helpful.

Other: I chose this course because it has great scope for the future. The campus does not conduct many events or programs. There are many clubs that are helpful for students like IEEE, ISTE, CALYPSO, etc.

It has average campus life, poor placements, and okay faculty members.

Placements: About 10-20% of students got placed in my batch which is less compared to last year. The average package offered in this course is 6 LPA. Some of the companies that came for recruitment include IT companies like UST Global, Mitsogo, and some other EC-based companies. Mainly, students should focus on core companies rather than IT companies and if we select this course, it will give us more exposure to this field.

Infrastructure: We have labs for all semesters from S1 to S7. It also has a project lab to do projects. Wi-Fi is also available on the campus. We also have a department library as well as the main library. A hostel facility is also available. 3 ladies' hostels and 2 men's hostels are available near the college. We also have a hostel mess and in the college, the canteen is also available.

Faculty: Last year, the pass percentage was above 90% and our college was in 2nd position. Teachers are highly qualified and we can easily understand their way of teaching. Semester exams depend on the previous year's question papers and we also get some new questions, so we have to study.

Other: This course is best for students who would like to pursue a career in the Electronics and Communication field. Various events are organised by the student council such as tech fest, art fest, college day, etc.

A beautiful college that can make you successful, and cheerful, and which brings u life.

Placements: Around 50% of the total strength got placements yearly. For our branch, the highest package obtained is 15 lakhs per year. The lowest package is around Rs. 22,000. Shobha Construction, Aarbee Structures, and L&T are the top recruiting civil-based companies. Companies also provide internship opportunities for those interested.

Infrastructure: Telling about infrastructure, our college is top-rated. Classrooms are provided with projector facilities. There are seminar halls and placement halls, which are well-maintained. Also,o for practical studies, there are many more labs like the MT lab, the GE lab, the CSA lab, etc. There's a huge library in our college, a main library, and several department libraries are also there. The hotel facilities are also good. Especially the college canteen provides us with a special treat of meals every day.

Faculty: There are permanent as well as guest teachers there. They are supportive and help one to improve over knowledge. Talking about the course curriculum, it was quite difficult to study, but as I struggled more and put effort into knowing it more, it seemed to be an important one. Gradually, we are ready to work in the field by our final year. Semester exams are done strictly. Malpractices are strictly prohibited. KTU conducts the exam, and it may be difficult or sometimes average level. 80% is the pass percentage of our branch.
