Nowadays, our college performance is not bad when compared to older days.
Placements: My seniors are placed in a few numbers because the standard companies are not visited the campus. Nowadays, a lot of companies visit the campus to computer science and electrical and communication branch students. Mechanical companies came in less number, and the others didn't fit for a campus, and I didn't like it.
Infrastructure: Rural Engineering College is located near to Hulkoti, which is approximately 1 km far from Hulkoti. The college has the medical facility. They provide Wi-Fi facility, but its speed is very slow to even browsing. The atmosphere of labs is good. The classrooms are good. The library has the new pattern books.
Faculty: In Rural Engineering College, the top branch is mechanical engineering branch in which the HODs and staff members are good. They are close to students, and not restricted to students in any matter. But the other branches are strict to their assignments and other things.
Other: All the time the events are conducted on the campus. The fests are conducted front nowadays. The scholarship is given to eligible students.

The best college with good knowledge.
Placements: The placements were awesome. Many companies came to our college. 45% of the students got placed, and we are looking for more in future. The highest salary was 5 lacs per annum, and the lowest was 3 lacs per annum. There were more than 12 companies including VRL, Infotech etc. Roles given to the students were good, and the old students are all working as managers in foreign countries too.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is a bit okay, and they are going for the betterment of the college now. The hostel is awesome with good rooms, and Jio Wi-Fi with more than 2 Mbps speed is available. The classrooms are always clean. There are sports with grounds and basketball court, etc. Labs are well-equipped. The canteen is good, and the hostel food is just awesome.
Faculty: Our teachers are well knowledgeable and have a good knowledge of the syllabus too. Teaching methods are in a simplified manner. They tell in a normal way by taking examples of the outside world. Cocurricular activities are awesome. Faculty and all are good, well-behaved and well-matured to tell what to do. The HOD of CSE department is the best in the college.

Absolutely good for average students, but not for intelligent students.
Placements: 30% of students were placed in 2024, with no campus placement. But, according to 2023 data, the highest package was 8.8 LPA, and the lowest package was about 4 LPA. NTT Data and Mindtree offered internships were given by college for all students, focusing on data analysis.
Infrastructure: Facilities are good, but the infrastructure for the CSE department is just okay. Wi-Fi is generally available for staff but not for students. Classrooms are good, but there isn’t good ventilation. The library is okay and has a lot of books. The food in the canteen is good.
Faculty: Vineet says that teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable, though not that good. But, the college does not make students industry-ready because they don't have knowledge and industry skills. What they have learned stays with them, but they don't have any industry. The semester exams are good, not too difficult, and the passing percentage is about 80%.
Other: Before joining this college, I didn’t know much about it. The best thing about my course is that the CSE department is quite good compared to others. To improve the college, they need to hire teachers who are really well-educated and knowledgeable. Literally, there are no events, and they only organize one event per year. The campus has good connectivity, and the surroundings are really good with greenery. However, extracurricular activities are really not all.
