Very satisfying management.
Placements: The percentage of the students who were placed in my batch was 60 percent. The highest package was 14 lacs and average package was 8 lacs and the lowest package was 4 lacs. The top recruiting companies were L&T Infotech, Wipro and Infosys. The top roles offered were software developed and ethical hacker.
Infrastructure: The classrooms and labs are well managed and cleaned. A well stocked library is available in a huge area. The campus is environment friendly and comfortable. The quality of food available in the canteen and mess is very hygienic and tasty. The hostel rooms are nice.
Faculty: The teachers are experienced and qualified but they are not much excited in teaching of students. They do not provide sufficient resources to the students. Curriculum activities are conducted in the starting of semester. The semester exams are difficult.
