It is a great place to be in.Environment is good along with faculty.U just need to knw how to adjust
Placements: Placements are fine. You get your placement at the starting of third year and went on training. For our super seniors the highest package was 8.5 Lacs as he had some live projects going on. Second the highest was 6.5 Lacs. However a lot of companies come for placements.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is nice. Well-equipped labs are there. Nearly 3-4 labs are there. Rooms are quite book to accommodate 50+ students at once. There is no personal auditorium of Department of Computer Science and applications. But ya we can book law audit and maths audit easily. Also Student Center is very close to the department. There are separate rooms for research scholars too. Labs are quipped with ACs.
Faculty: Faculty is well qualified. There are PhDs and associate professors. Chairman sir is a Ph.D. and very much skilled. He also take lectures. Faculty is nice and friendly and always try to motivate and help us in best possible way. Course curriculum is fine but I think it needs to be a bit more advanced. But this is what the problem is all over India. But yes, being a professional course, we do have lab lectures too which are sufficient enough.
Other: Campus is good. Panjab University is full of crowd. There is a fest of DCSA I. e. Epsilon. Other than that farewellscand freshers are conducted. Festivals are celebrated with great joy. Scholarships are provided for the needy. There is also a hostel facility. Students keep on taking part in different fests organized not just by PU but also by other colleges too.

Normalized with the placement, infrastructure and faculty at DCSA.
Placements: The DCSA placements in the college are just above average. The companies that come to recruitment need coding skills, and if someone doesn't have that much good coding skills, then he/she doesn't get placed. Even the package offered was max up to 3 LPA. The main issue is with the bond, as a fresher no one is interested in signing the bond.
Infrastructure: The classrooms are the small rooms for the class of 50 students. For sitting, there were only chairs, and that too is not comfortable for sitting. Now come to the labs there was no proper installation of software on PC. In the department, there are no proper washrooms. Most of the time girls student have to go to other departments for using the washroom.
Faculty: The DCSA faculty are good. They have the proper subject knowledge, but that limits to the theoretical part. Few of the teachers are overqualified for teaching the masters student as they share the high-level knowledge. That doesn't make any sense to students, and they feel like bored in that particular lectures.
Other: The DCSA organizes some fest time to time for the entertainment purpose, and they are good for enjoying.
