Placement committee is helpful and opportunities are also good.

Faculty: Faculty members are good, especially in Software, and they have a deep knowledge of the subjects they teach. They allow students to communicate and encourage them very firmly to participate in the class which we really like about them. Exams are relatively on the easier side but branches like Electrical, ECE, and Mechanical are on the tougher side because they are core subjects.

Best facility providing MBA college.

Faculty: The teachers are good but mostly English is used for teaching. There are 9 members for our branch of 50 students keeping an eye on each student. The teachers are funny, they crack jokes during the teaching so we do not feel bored in the lectures. The course curriculum mainly makes us an analyst in all analysis tools which are in the syllabus like advance excel, Tableau, power Bi, etc. The semester exams are for a total 100 marks, 70/30 is the pattern of the University.

Very best faculty is provided by the college.

Faculty: The course is really to the point and mostly they are all more concerned with practical exposure than theoretical knowledge. I chose finance as my core specialisation as I am from a CA background, and I really love to analyze data. Excel is my cup of tea, and I also love doing work in Excel and other Microsoft Office.

There is a great library, but there is double occupancy in hostels.

Faculty: Teachers here were qualified enough to make us learn. All of them were quite helpful, but some were sort of arrogant. However, the majority of them are fine.
