It is the best college with good campus life and placements.

Placements: I am from the Electronics department, and the highest package is around 1.2 CPA, while the average package offered is 27 LPA. Many top companies visit here for recruitment and check every skill that is useful for their company development. There is a placement cell here.

Decent infrastructure and well-experienced faculty.

Placements: About 65 percent of the students will get placements in our course. The average package is 8 LPA, and the top recruiting companies are Tata Motors, Bajaj, etc. While coming to the interns, the core companies were low compared to the non-core, so the interns were pretty difficult. Top roles like design engineer and production engineer will be achieved.

One of the best engineering colleges.

Placements: The placement percentage based on 2025 data is around 64%. It is a decent percentage, as many of the students opt for further studies and other streams, other than campus placements. SDE is the top role and is more beneficial for CSE and MNC students. Other branch students can have core placements too, as per their interests.

Fully satisfied with what it provides, good infrastructure and facilites.

Placements: 13 out of 15 (87%) students were placed from the batch 2024-2025 in our course where the average package was 18 LPA-19 LPA given that not a lot of them were for core (in material science) positions because core companies like Applied Materials Inc. and Loham are offering upto 30 LPA offers. The highest package was 46 LPA in Meesho for the SDE role and the lowest was around 12 LPA. Some of the companies that came were Walmart, Citi Bank, Jarvis (business analyst role), Meesho, and Loham. 2 studen...
