Absolutely dissatisfied because of placement, good placements till 2022, and good infrastructure.
Placements: Only 50 percent of students got placed, not worth the hype and all. The highest package is 16 LPA, the average is around 4 LPA, and the lowest I would say was around 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies are TCS, Infosys, LTM Mindtree, Deloitte, and Hashdein. Interns are only about 10-20 percent from 2000 people.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good, but it is not safe to roam around in college for girls after 7:00 PM.

There is a good and friendly environment on the campus.
Placements: Placements are very good. The average package is offered to students. Weak students also get placed. It offers training in data structure and Java full-stack courses. NovoInvent company hires students from the college.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the campus is very good and pretty decent. There is a building for each department. We get average food daily. Free Wi-Fi is available for students on campus everywhere. There are average hostel facilities. There is a garden and greenery everywhere.
Faculty: On the campus, faculty members are friendly. They teach well. HOD is understanding. We can reach teachers anywhere and even after college hours. Faculty members are experienced and supportive. They improve our learning and explain concepts with examples.
