The environment and academics are excellent, but placement is dissatisfying.
Placements: Placement is disappointing in this course, although you can pursue higher studies, which will lead to a good career. In terms of knowledge and academics, Economics is a far better option in comparison with the other colleges, but the placement rate is low.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is fantastic, as it is culturally rich, and the environment of the college is fabulous. But something which is a little disappointing is that the conditions of the hostel are very old and it needs modification, although modification and preparations takes place from time to time. Wi-Fi is available all across the campus. Food is affordable and hygienic. The library is functional for 18 hours, and one of the biggest libraries in Asian under a university is present here.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is also very good, they have great experience in teaching. A course is industry-relevant only if it integrates theoretical knowledge with the practical knowledge, such as the skills that the industry demands.
