The lowest package was 5 LPA. Top recruiting companies were Cisco, Qualcomm, On-Semiconductor, Intel, Tejas Networks, Xilinx, Cadence Design Systems etc. Almost 40% of the students got internships. Most of the students interned in Intel and Qualcomm, and Analog Devices hired 8 people for internships. Top roles offered were hardware engineer, testing engineer, digital design engineer etc.
Infrastructure: Labs and classrooms are in good condition. All the classrooms have fans, lighting, sliding boards and projector facilities. The library is air-conditioned. There is also a digital library, where you can access computers. Wi-Fi is available throughout the campus. Hostel rooms have LAN facilities. Hostels have windows, gallery, cupboards, fans, tube lights, tables, chairs, LAN and Wi-Fi facilities. Washing machines are available in every bathroom.

From fever to major treatment, everything is taken care of. For sports and games, there are playgrounds and a stadium for cricket. You can play all games on different courts.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful and are always ready to help. There are some great faculty members who reply instantly even to our emails. All have done their PhDs. They let the student think rather than memorising the concept. The teaching quality was great. The course curriculum involves digital and analog IC design, DSP applications, antenna theory etc. These all are in high demand for industrial perspectives.
Other: M.Tech in electrical engineering gives you good insight knowledge of electrical, electronics and computer science. This is an interdisciplinary course. You gain knowledge of today's industries requirements. You can get a stipend 12,400 per month if you maintain 6.5 CGPA. Improvements needed are providing good outcomes by teaching parts of that courses in consecutive semesters. There is a cultural fest every year called Saarang. There is a technical fest every year called Shaastra. Apart from that, there is an E-Summit in which you can have conversations with some big business people. It is an event of startup competitions.
