It's all about my college, which has good nature and surroundings.

Placements: This is a very good college. In terms of placement, the highest salary is about 30 LPA, and the lowest is about 7–8 LPA. Students can get internships either in college or if a student wants to opt for an internship outside. They can also go for it.
