The highest package here is 1.3 crore, the average package is 45 LPA, and the lowest package is 30 LPA. Many top companies like Google, Microsoft, TCS, Intel, etc. come for placements every year.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is really attractive. Classrooms, library, labs, and every place in the college are neatly maintained, and hostels in the college are equipped with good facilities, making students comfortable to stay in. The mess food served is acceptable in taste and has many kinds of food, covering both North Indian and South Indian food.

The sports and games area is within the campus, and students are free to play.

They all hold a Ph.D. degree in their subjects and are highly knowledgeable individuals. Their teaching and explaining skills are really good and understandable. The course schedule is designed by the faculty in charge with the help of all the other faculty, and it's very easy to complete the course for all the students. Exams are also very easy to attempt, and the pass percentage in the semester is around 40 percent. A student can easily pass with minimal knowledge.

Great campus life with student with diverse backgrounds.
Placements: Students become eligible for campus placements from the 5th semester while internships are available from the 3rd semester onwards. Companies like TCS, Deloitte, Infosys, and Wipro visit the campus for placements. Around 80 - 90 percent of the students who participate in the placement process get placed successfully.
Infrastructure: The campus life is beautiful yet challenging. While cultural activities and events are frequent and enjoyable, the workload related to assignments, exams and projects can feel overwhelming. Clubs and committees play a crucial role in managing campus activities and ensuring a vibrant student community.
Faculty: The relationship between faculty and students is positive, and the faculty members are highly approachable. There is one internal exam conducted before the final semester exam. The exams are quite difficult and 2-3 percent of the students struggle to pass them. The teaching staff includes experienced professors and Ph.D. scholars who strive to provide the best support to their students.
