Faculty and infrastructure are good, but there is a lack of placements for the RF branch.
Placements: For internships, Intel visited the college last year. Coaching institutions like Aakash, Rao IAS, etc., and companies like Qualcomm, Intel, etc., visited the college. If you are interested in higher studies, a lot of positions come for JRF since this branch gets a lot of government projects.
Infrastructure: For M.Tech students, the hostel rooms are very small. The food provided is okay. Medical facilities are available 24 hours on weekdays, and the timings are different on Sundays. I have not been much into sports, but I know that almost all sports facilities are available.
Faculty: The course curriculum is relevant since they teach from the very basic of microwave. It makes students industry-ready because you get to publish papers for which you will be doing research on recent topics and also the evolution of those topics.
