Overall best college for M.A. in economics course.
Placements: Each year, around 77 percent of students successfully finished this course. The highest wage allowed was 11 LPA. The average salary was 7 LPA. The minimum wage offered was 3 LPA. The top recruitment firms were American Express, ICICI Bank, and HDFC Bank. Almost 70 percent of students had an internship in their third year. Credit manager, investment analyst, and others were among the top positions available.
Infrastructure: The food at the mess was clean and of high quality. The entire week’s cuisine was fairly precise in terms of scheduling. Fast Wi-Fi was available at the college, however daily data usage was restricted. The college had a lot of canteens with delicious meals.
Faculty: The instructors were helpful and well qualified (many had doctoral degrees) and were a sea of knowledge, but the delivery varied from professor to professor, some were excellent, while others were not. Courses followed the new syllabus, but the semester examinations in the engineering department were very rigorous, and 35 marks out of 100 were considered passed.
