Good infrastructure and environment friendly.
Placements: There are 60 students in my course. It depends on oneself, they are involved in some internships such as Thirty40, Abilityex, Kalahut, etc. The highest salary is Rs 23.50 LPA while average salary is Rs 5.70 LPA, as much I got to know till now. Almost 20 to 25 students are doing internships currently.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is amazing. Our campus environment is very fresh and beautiful. The garden is managed perfectly and soothing. The quality of food is quite not good currently. But the previous one was amazing no one had any complaints. Medical facilities are good and 24/7 in service, sports, and games. The ground is always open and anyone can catch up with whatever, one wants to play cricket, basketball, etc. The quality of facility in hostel is good. Library is amazing.
Faculty: The teaching quality is very clear and good. One can understand very easily. They are qualified and knowledgeable. They are also very much helpful and informative. They want to make students ready for any such skills required. The pass percentage in my course is almost 90% so you can imagine the level of teaching and difficulties that we overcome during our semester exams in college.
Other: I chose history case because I want to explore more of it and want to drive myself in it. If there would be a digital system I suppose that would be great and would help us in understanding more better way. Events, fests, crowd, and campus surroundings are not bad. But just wished to have a canteen area a little bigger than usual. The fest seasons are so eye-catching and good.
