Completely dissatisfied with their placements, but good teaching and infrastructure.
Placements: No one got placed from our department. Also, no internship was provided by the college. Students on their own arranged for internships.
Infrastructure: Department, as well as college infrastructure was very good. Buildings and lab were new. They had hostel facilities, but it was not near the college. The infrastructure and other facilities of the hostel was not good. Building was old and the food was not too bad.
Faculty: Teachers were well qualified from reputed institutes. They were very helpful in teaching. Our course programme made the students ready for the industry, as the teaching was relevant. Semester exams were not so difficult for average students. Pass percentage was 45%.
Other: I chose this course, on the advice of a counsellor. Practical and industry exposure should be promoted more in this course, rather than theoretical knowledge. College provided scholarships to ST and OBC students. They conducted fest, events and extracurricular activities for the students.
