There are different labs for different subjects, there’s a total of 8 labs for IT department . There is Wi-Fi available on each floor. There are 3 floors in the IT department.

It is a good college if you are ready to put in some extra effort and focus.
Placements: Placements are decent. You have to have something different. You have to prepare all your core topics and have projects mentioned in your resume. Since it's not an NIT-level college, you will have to make some extra effort in order to get placed on-campus.
Infrastructure: Labs have good facilities. If you are in the IT department, you could also carry your own laptop if you have some trouble with the department labs. The labs are air-conditioned and equipped with Wi-Fi. Classrooms are also huge but not that smart. The library is huge and could easily meet your needs. The infrastructure is good overall. When it comes to hostels, all sorts of hostels are available. Even though they are good, apply for it as soon as possible.
Faculty: Teachers are really insightful and have good knowledge. The first-year teachers are fine since the portion is also not so great, but after the first year, the level increases. It also depends on the interests of the student. The curriculum is good, as mentioned after the first year. The subjects start to get interesting. The exams are above average in difficulty. If you study, you can score well enough.

Our college has good infrastructure.
Placements: Our college is one of the best institutes for engineering. Many companies visit during the seventh semester for placements of students. Infosys, IBM, and Tech Mahindra have placed many students from our degree course. Many students from Goa and other states attend college.
Infrastructure: Our college has a huge campus consisting of hostels with mess facilities, a library, a gymkhana, an infinity ground, a canteen, etc. Our hostels also have Wi-Fi facilities. The mess serves good quality food. During my entire degree course, i.e., 4 years, I stayed in the hostel.
Faculty: Our college has good, qualified faculty members. They gave you good direction and guidance for the future. Semester exams are tough, but if you study regularly and strategically, it is very easy to pass. During the final year, students have to submit their project, which should solve any real-time problem.
