My honest review about my college.

Placements: Campus placements are excellent 100% placements. Summer placements 2019-20 1.31 LPA (2 months) were offered. In final placements 2018-20 18.76 LPA were offered. Aspirants can go through the placement report of the college for further information. Every student has to go through a summer internship program for 2 months (April-May). The college offers on-campus internship opportunities and many renowned companies visit the campus.

Dissatisfied because of poor facility for cricket.

Placements: The placements in AE & AM are too low, as many come here to do research. This year, 2 to 3 seniors got placed and their packages were about 30 to 40 LPA. So, for research in AE and AM, it is preferable; otherwise, not. Although, I don't have a proper idea as I am in my 1st year.
