Absolutely the best college for the best student.

Placements: Placement shares are quite good. Around 76% of the way to go to place in the last year. Highest package was 25 LPA, and average package was 2 LPA, as per my seniors. Internships are plenty, and some students get international offers, startups offer about 10 LPA.

Infrastructure: Facilities here are pretty good. Students get access to clean water and hygienic food in the canteen with great service. The library's wide collection of books, full stop, hostels are spacious and provide comfortable living space. Classrooms are equipped with AC and a smart board. Overall, the management focuses on keeping the campus clean and providing all the basic resources students need.

Faculty: The faculty here genuinely cares about the students. They are always ready to explain concept multiple times if needed. Many teachers have industry experience that improves our skills. The supportive environment helps weak students catch up with rest of the class.

Other: Best thing about the courses is that you can easily get a package or internship from a good company.
