College is fun. Whatever you want, you will get in college. Just enjoy.
Placements: 70 percent of students from our college are placed. Many went for an MBA, research, Ph.D., and some went for government exam preparation. The average package is 18 LPA. For my branch average package is 16 LPA, and the placement percentage is about 66 percent. All the top companies that you think will be present.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities available here are quite good. You will get Wi-Fi in class room, lecture hall, labs, and library. You will have a reading room in your respective hostel, also with full AC and Wi-Fi. Hostel food is okay, not that great, and the washrooms for a few hostels are neat and clean, while for some are dirty.
Faculty: Teaching, I can't say it is fully useful as it follows the old curriculum, which is not as useful for current industry needs. But the teachers are highly qualified and have a lot of knowledge. Semester exams are a mix of easy and tough exams. Some professors are very chill, and some are so strict that they fail half of the class.
Other: This course is good. Events and festivals in our college are the best part, and you will get a lot of such activities happening every months and after a while you will get bored with all those things.
