Getting an IIT itself is a big thing.
Placements: Almost all students get placed in our course. The average package is 14 LPA and the highest is 50 LPA. Top roles are in Data Science, ML, and software development. Top recruiting companies like Qualcomm, Intel, Nvidia, Amazon, and Silicon Labs. Almost the batch gets internships. There is nothing hard to get.
Infrastructure: Talking about the infrastructure, it is one of the best due to the new emerging IIT. Hostels are the best I have ever seen in my life with so many facilities, night canteens, and a good mess. Medical facilities are also good. A proper gaming area building is there, along with a huge ground for football.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. They are well-qualified and have a lot of experience. What they teach is not able to get on YouTube and sometimes not even in books. They make us industry-ready. Exams are quite intuitive. It's not like you study everything and go for the exam. It's still possible that you won't be able to solve it.

Comprehensive, supportive, and growth-oriented college experience.
Placements: Around 80% of students were placed in IIT Jammu. The highest package was 50 LPA, the lowest was 8 LPA, and the average was around 15 LPA. Top recruiters include Microsoft, Amazon, and L&T. Nearly 85% got internships at companies like DRDO, ISRO, and Tata. Top roles offered are software dev, analyst, and engineer.
Infrastructure: There is no shortage of water here. However, there are no rooms with air conditioning, though classrooms do have these facilities. I am a vegetarian, and the food in the mess is average in quality. The registration process is simple and smooth. The library is open 24 hours, while the gym closes at 11:30 PM and the cafeterias stay open until 3 AM. On campus, you must return by 11 PM. There are some hangout places outside, including fast food spots and many restaurants. Yes, it is completely safe.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful except some and mostly are knowledgeable. Teaching quality is also very good. The course curriculum is relevant except some courses make students industry-ready. Some courses are difficult and some are moderate. Passing is approximately 25 to 30 out of 100.

Good college in tier 3 IITs.
Placements: In electrical engineering, the last time that is 2024 batch had an astonishing record of 87% placed. The highest offered was around 50 LPA and the average was 18 LPA. I don't know about recruiting companies but so many companies come to recruit. Around 70% were given internships from my course.
Infrastructure: The facilities are quite good. They provide full-time Wi-Fi. Labs have so much equipment. Classrooms are neat. Even the library has a vast collection of books. The quality of food is below average as you cannot expect anything much better because it is located in Jammu and I am a south Indian who likes to eat more spicy, they cook food which is sweet. Medical facilities are also good. They also conduct good events based on sports and games.
Faculty: Our teachers are very helpful, qualified, and highly knowledgeable. Their teaching quality is also very good. The given course curriculum is also relevant. It makes the students industry-ready. Semester exams are also average like if you study it would be easier. The pass percentage is 95%.
