Top class facilities and courses are available.
Placements: Placements for seniors were smooth. Those who deserved got it. I don't know much about the salary, but it is a film industry. The packages are high in this field. I'm currently doing VFX, and the companies who hire VFX students were both national and also international. Depending on what course you are doing, you are offered posts.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is top class. We have Wi-Fi in every spot on our campus. Classrooms are huge, and AC is provided in every classroom. Medical and emergency facilities are also top class. Classrooms are well cleaned and arranged. Food available in the canteen is average. We don't have hostel facilities. The only problem I faced was to find a place to live. The college doesn't provide hostel facilities.
Faculty: The faculty are cool. They go to any extent to help you and are top class. They are connected to the film industry and have a lot of experience in this field. We follow 'No Paper' policy. Maximum time we study through digital media such as the projector. As our faculty are connected to the film industry, we get many opportunities to get exposure.
