Overall, good college for MCA course.

Placements: Good placements were offered by our college. Wipro was one of the best hiring firms. Additional courses were offered by our department. 90% of students at our college were placed. Good compensation packages were offered by this course. Nearly 80% of students were able to secure internships.

Infrastructure: Hostel had one room that could accommodate three students, which was more than enough for everyone. The cuisine was also slightly better than typical. There was a volleyball court and a basketball court at the hostel. Hostel students could also use the college grounds, where they could develop a healthy body.

Faculty: Their teamwork allowed them to teach exceptionally well. Exams were really easy for us because we grasped everything and received good grades. As a result, our students received scores of 85 to 90% on our semester exams. Our instructors were very helpful, knowledgeable, and had excellent teaching skills.

My review about this college.

Placements: Campus placement was very good. The number of students who got placed was around 80%. All the students passing the academic year were placed on campus. Companies that came were EY, Decathlon, IBM, GT, KPMG, Target, HP, Goldman Sachs, Adobe, Microsoft, Amazon, etc. Packages of each company differ. The average package range was 3 LPA to 4.5 LPA. The highest package was 15 LPA. We need at least 7 CGPA to get into the placement process. All over results and later they took interviews and many of them for selection.

Infrastructure: Course infrastructure was good if you wanted to learn more programming. As the purpose of research, it was also good that you got the chance to explore what was happening in technical world, and you also got chance to make your own website. In 4 semester, we had to submit a project on website designing with detailed procedure. Hostel facilities of the college were good. Hostel was built inside the college campus. The security was maximum throughout the time. The food was always fresh, healthy, and very tasty. All the students were given a lot of facilities.

Faculty: Faculty members at my college were well-experienced and they showed an immense knowledge about the subject they teach. All teachers had Ph.D. degree. Most of them were well-versed in their particular field of interest and had the potential to share their knowledge with the students. Exam structure was very strict, if someone worked hard then only they would pass. It had 3 components which were 2 tests of 10 marks each and one mid-semester exam of 30 marks followed by a final exam of 100 marks which would be converted to 50.

My review of this college.

Placements: From the 4th semester, students are eligible for campus placements. Companies start visiting the campus around July. The college does place students and companies that come, are startups as well as big companies. Most of the time, the college sends us to the pool campus. Around 70% of students got placed in the course. The highest package is 17 LPA, and the lowest package is 3 LPA. Companies that visit the campus are Amazon, Deloitte, Wipro, TCS, Adani, etc. The college offered good placement opportunities for students interested in getting themselves employed. Offers are decided due on our marks and experience.

Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are really nice with 24x7 electricity and water facilities. Other requirements like a microwave, induction, a fridge, washing machines, and geysers are available. The food is also eatable. A library and computer lab facility are provided inside the hostel. Rooms have been renovated recently. The food is separate, with around Rs. 3,000 per month. So overall it is Rs. 4,000-5,000 per month. The college canteen serves good food. Labs are also there where we practice the practical part of courses.

Faculty: Faculty members are good as well. The faculty members of our college are experienced. Discipline and time management skills are present. They are helpful and really help in solving anything in real-time on the college campus or even an academic campus. The internal exams are there for practical as well as for written for every subject. Internal practical exams are also taken there by our teachers, and external practical exams are also taken there, but by external examiners. The theory exam consists of 75 marks, and the remaining 25 marks are internals. The overall course structure is good. Computer Science department staff members are focused on 50% programming and 50% theory in order to enhance our theory as well as programming skills.

The warden is good, and they take care of us in a safe environment.

Exams are conducted in two semesters. Each semester has two types of exams, internal and external exams. The internal exam consists of 40 marks, which are conducted three times in a 20-mark format, and the best two tests are considered. External consists of 50 marks. The course curriculum is very nice. There is a lot to learn. Professors there set very high benchmarks for students. Industry-level assignments are done in the course curriculum.
