Good college life with all facilities.
Placements: About 70 percent of students get placed this year. The highest package is 30+ LPA, the minimum is 3.2 LPA for Civil Engineering, and the average is around 7 LPA this year. Top recruiters include Microsoft, and 50–60 percent of students got internships. Top roles are Software Engineer in CSE, and core branches also have specific roles.
Infrastructure: All labs have equipment and are working, except some labs like ECE and Electrical Engineering. The rest are good but not all are AC; some departments like Mechanical and Chemical Engineering have AC. The hostel also has good food. All sports and game clubs are active.
Faculty: Teachers are quite helpful. They have great experience in their fields. They make your curriculum relevant for placements and industry-ready. Semester exams are a bit tough, but if you study for one week before, you can easily pass. Attendance criteria are also strict.
Other: The best thing is placements. Faculty will improve, I think events and fests are also held regularly.

Top recruiters are TCS and Wipro. 40% of students get internships in my branch. Some internships are paid, but some are unpaid.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is okayish. Wi-Fi is available in the hostel only, cold water is provided. Food is good, the building is not very good, and the canteen is also good. No medical facilities inside the hostel. A basketball court is inside the hostel. The hostel has RO water. Every floor has geysers.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and qualified. Their teaching quality is good. The course is like that taught in NITs and IITs. Semester exams are quite difficult, but not very difficult. Almost 90% of students pass their exams easily. Those who do not study may not pass the exam.
Other: I didn't choose the electrical branch, but I got it from counselling. Faculty members should be more qualified. Labs could be better. Events take place from time to time, including fests.

College has great placement and experienced teachers, and there is a big ground area.
Placements: My course is M. Tech in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science. From the last batch in my college, student placements are around 95 percent, and the highest package is around 50 LPA, with the average being 7 to 10 LPA. The top role offered in my course is data engineering by the company Wipro.
Infrastructure: Facilities in IET are very good. Wi-Fi is available for the students and faculty members. There are a large number of classrooms and a library. The quality of the hostel is very good. The food available in the mess is very good and tasty. Sports facilities are also very good.
Faculty: For the purpose of exams and curriculum, the teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable. They have experience and deep knowledge about the subjects. The difficulty level of the semester exams is moderate. Teachers are helpful for exams and also helpful in research and all other things.
Other: I chose the course M. Tech in Artificial Intelligence and Data because, in today's era, Artificial Intelligence is more in demand, and we gain knowledge about the course. Pride in the college is very good. There are fests happening every year, quarterly I think. Sports events also happen. In February, the main fest called Encore takes place.

IET Lucknow, AKTU top government College.
Placements: Around 85 percent of CSE students get placed. The highest package is 52 LPA, with an average of 8 LPA and a median of 9 LPA in CSE. Top recruiting companies include TCS, Zeta, Ambuja Cement, and many more. Many students also get internships through the college, including opportunities at Google, Microsoft, and other companies. The primary roles offered are software engineer positions.
Infrastructure: The college provides Wi-Fi access in the hostel and library, but the infrastructure is old. The mess food is above average, and there is also a canteen, which is okay. There are no medical facilities, and sports and games facilities are limited. Hostel bathrooms are cleaned daily, except on Sundays.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. However, the course curriculum is not very industry-relevant and does not fully prepare students for the job market. Semester exams are of moderate difficulty. The pass percentage is around 85 percent. If you study clearly and go through previous year questions thoroughly, achieving 8.5 CGPA is easy.
Other: I chose this course to become a software engineer. The best thing about my course is that it gives a good ROI. However, the study material is somewhat outdated. Every semester, the college hosts a maximum of 2 fests.
