The placement team works well to get all the students placed by the end of the course.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. You have good classrooms as well as seminar halls and a big auditorium. The infrastructure needs a good field and grounds for students to play outdoor sports, but we do have a basketball court and an indoor games section.

Take admission here. It is a really good college.

Placements: After 3rd semester, companies come to campus for placement. The companies that come for placement are: Yash technologies, Bajaj FinServ, ICICI securities, Kotak bank, HDFC Bank, etc. Every year, more than 90% of students got placed from campus, mainly in MNC companies. Package was more than 5 Lacs. Internships are given to almost everyone. Arthayan Bizfinmart Pvt. Ltd. hires most students as interns.

Infrastructure: In college, cultural societies are very active throughout the campus, managing events and sports. Politics is handled by students unions, separate students body and a chain between students and management. Along with that, the college is really great at providing facilities; it has computers in the lab, Wi-Fi, WLAN internet, and course subscriptions. The library has biometric validation when it monitors students timing. I am living in PG, which is nearly half a km from college. It has 14k/month, including food prices. The service is really good, and the food is prepared by experts. Sports events are organized and managed by the cultural body.

Faculty: My college is best in terms of faculty members. I can say it with full confidence because of my personal experience. Till now on any relevant or irrelevant, from course they gives there guidance.

My review about this college.

Placements: General stipend ranges from Rs 30,000 per month - Rs 40,000 per month. Some internship stipend crosses Rs 50,000 per month. Students were given real-time problems on which they had to implement the aspects learned in college. We had more than 90% placements in our batch with an average package of 8.5 LPA. A lot of students got jobs. Few students got international placements also as major consulting and banking firms. Companies like Deloitte, Michael Page, Hero, Indian Oil, and Bloomberg recruited from the campus. I remember last time the highest package offered by HDFC was 30 LPA and by Reliance it was 45 LPA.

Infrastructure: The mess food was good but lacked variety. The menu was decided by the mess committee as per the discussions and the meetings with the students staying in the hostel. There were very nice dhabas available next to college for snacks and outings.

Faculty: Faculty members were rated as one of the best in India. We had industry experts and faculty with industry experience. Many faculty members had their case studies published in HBR. They were extremely good. The faculty members also write journals that published in major publications across the globe. They helped us to achieve the course through hard and continuous revision. They clear out all the doubts. There were 4-semester exams for this 2-year course. Faculty members were helpful and taught us in a good manner. There were four semesters, and the exams were done semester wise. The course curriculum was very much updated and kept in line with the industry requirements. It had a lot of new subjects that were being taught in leading B-schools. The exam structure was in the trimester format which keeps the students busy throughout the year with sufficient extracurricular activities being held throughout the year.
