    I'm dissatisfied because of the placement cell. Still, it has very good teachers and infrastructure.
    Placements: Placements are below average because this college is under the central government. Top recruiting companies are Oberoi, Taj, ITC, Bata, Hyatt, Novotel, Marriott, Hilton, Bikanervala, etc.
    Infrastructure: The quality of food in the mess was good, and the hostel was quite good. Sports facilities are good, and restaurants are quite good and well-equipped. There is no canteen on the campus. The library is quite good with lots of space, and all course-related books are available.
    Faculty: All faculty members are helpful, well-qualified and knowledgeable. All faculty members focus on practical and theoretical. If you finished your course curriculum, you are completely ready for the hotel industry. The passing percentage is 80%, and semester exams are easy. Faculty members are great, and most of them are from Oberoi, Taj and ITC. HODs are also good.
