Highly satisfied with the placements and campus, though classrooms could have been better.
Placements: The placements for my course are very nice. Companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Zomato, etc., come for placements and internships in the course. More than 90% of the students of my course get placed every year, which in itself is a good number. Students also go for roles in other sectors.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is old as compared to the newer IITs. The Wi-Fi connectivity is disappointing as it is not good at various places. The hostel rooms are good, but the quality of mess food is okay. The sports facilities in the campus are excellent. The medical facilities are also good.
Faculty: The faculty for our department is excellent, though some courses taught in the first year seem irrelevant. The professors are highly friendly and helpful, which is a very good thing. The difficulty of the semester exams depends completely on luck, sometimes it is tough and sometimes easy. Despite this, the overall pass percentage is very good.
Other: The extracurricular activities in the campus are amazing. The culture of societies and clubs helps us make new friends and very good connections. The seniors are also very helpful.
