The campus is good with good facilities.
Placements: After completing the first year, students are required to undertake a mandatory internship lasting between 6 and 8 weeks. This internship is an integral part of the curriculum. Students have the flexibility to pursue internships anywhere in India, but they are responsible for finding these opportunities independently. The availability of internships through the college is limited and based primarily on the students' CGPA. For those unable to secure an internship externally, the college does offer some opportunities within the campus itself.
Infrastructure: Postgraduate students are allocated spacious single-seater rooms furnished with essential amenities such as a B.Ed. desk, chair, and wardrobe. Additionally, LAN facilities are provided for their convenience. The hostel mess is known for its quality, offering a variety of meals served four times a day. Overall, campus life is vibrant and fulfilling for students.
Faculty: The course is highly captivating as it delves into the intricate workings of urban planning, emphasizing efficiency in city design and management. The curriculum stands out for its practical approach, requiring students to apply theoretical knowledge directly to assigned tasks. In the second year of the masters programme, each student is assigned a faculty member who serves as a thesis advisory. These advisors are not only interactive but also play a pivotal role in guiding students through their thesis work, ensuring successful completion. They are readily accessible and approachable, fostering a supportive environment for academic and professional growth.
Other: I chose this course because I was interested in it.

Satisfied with the internship opportunities as compared to other colleges in Nagpur.
Placements: After the end of the first year, we have to do a minimum of 6–8 weeks of internship, which is mandatory. Students are free to do an internship anywhere in India. They have to search for internships from there side because there are very few internship opportunities and the opportunity is given on the basis of a CGPA. The college also provides some internships within campus for students who do not find any internships outside.
Infrastructure: M.Tech and Ph.D. students have a separate hostel in VNIT, where every person has been allocated a single room, which is very spacious, but the building is very old. Bathrooms are very clean and neat every day; sanitation workers clean the hostel; the facilities that were provided are very poor when compared with the fee we are paying; we don't have washing machines, which is a big problem; some problems are there in the hostel; some of the problems are solved by the hostel warden but some problems are also not solved, which is a very bad thing we didn't expect. The main problem is that we don't have a separate mess for South Indians, where there is different food compared with North Indians. Some days the curries are too bad, and some days they are good, but they are providing good food. 1st year M.Tech mess, which is old mega mess, which serves very tasteless food that cannot be eaten by South Indians, but the new mega mess proves some good-tasting food compared with the old mega mess. We can take admission through VNIT.
Faculty: I'm doing my Masters at this college so in our 2nd year, we are allotted a faculty member as our guide for our thesis work. They are quite interactive and guide us to successfully complete our work. They are approachable. This course is very interesting, as you can learn how a city is planned to work efficiently. The curriculum of the course is also very practical, as we have to implement all our learning from the course into the tasks we are provided.
Other: In Masters, we don't get any type of scholarship, but those students who are admitted through GATE are provided a stipend of 12400 rupees per month. The total course duration is 2 years, which cost 4,00,000 in total.
