Overall, a good value for money campus I would say.
Placements: Almost 55 percent of the students are placed in our course and the lowest package is 3.5 LPA while the highest package is 7 LPA. 45 percent of the students get internships in various companies like Biocon, IVRI, Bharat Biotech, etc. I'm not sure about the top roles offered but some are recruited for HR and data management.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are good. The campus is full lush green with good classrooms and CCTV cameras almost in every class. The mess is somewhat okay, but the canteen is large with good quality items offered at affordable prices. A huge ground and sports equipment are available.
Faculty: I love the faculty members. They are so cooperative and friendly to every student, and no partiality is seen in them. They are well qualified with a good teaching manner and absolutely they make students industry ready as I have seen my seniors grow.
Other: Many events take place and celebrations happen at their respective time every year, involving the participation of students who give their best and improve in many aspects as I have seen. Almost every year, students get scholarships.

Placements: Top recruiting companies are VISA, Paytm, Wipro, Primathon, Capgemini, Kickdrum, Razorpay, etc. About 65 percent of students are placed from Computer Science and Technology. College placement is good according to past batches, let’s check for our batch in future.
Infrastructure: For our course CSE, college infrastructure is not that much good. Our classes are old and AC is not there yet, but they assure us to put AC next year. I do not live in the hostel, but according to my friends, hostel fees for 1 year is about 130,000, which is too high.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, but they are not that much knowledgeable. They do not have much experience in teaching. Exams are conducted thrice in college and the fourth time is semester exams. Exam difficulty is average. We can crack the exams only by studying one night before exams.
Other: We have to wear uniform in the campus. That is the worst thing about the college. So many events are conducted in our college.

Overview of MIT Moradabad.
Placements: Around 30–40 percent of students are placed in the Computer Science and Engineering branch. Placement is better in other branches like civil, mechanical, etc., which is better due to the lower number of students. The highest package is around 20 LPA, the average is 5–6 LPA, and 2 LPA is the minimum. TCS, Infosys, and Wipro are some of the top hiring companies.
Infrastructure: Various bare minimum facilities are available, like Wi-Fi, labs, library, etc. Classrooms have AC and well-ventilated windows. Hostel rooms are average and three-sitter. Mess food is average most of the time. The hygiene of the hostel’s mess is quite disappointing.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and wholesome, and most of them are of a helping nature. The teaching quality is up to the mark for almost all teachers. The course curriculum is not that much relevant due to AKTU affiliation. The semester exams are of average difficulty, and almost 90 percent of students pass.
Other: I chose the Computer Science and Engineering branch due to its growing popularity.

Placements: My college is very good in terms of placements. The average package is up to 6 LPA - 7 LPA. The highest package was 47 LPA in the previous year. We can easily see the placement cell. They are always distrustful as companies started to come for overall placements. We get to know that the placement cell helps you a lot to get a job according to your talents and skills.
Infrastructure: There are good facilities for sports. The hostel is nice for first-year students. The canteen is good to serve variety of food. Sports are good in college. There are various types of sports like football and cricket. There is a good library in college to learn various kinds of departments. In-campus hostel facilities are also nice. Food quality is not comparable to home food, but still edible and better than other colleges in the locality.
Faculty: In my college, teachers are very helpful, qualified, and experienced. The college provides us with the best faculty, who are motivated enough to teach us in all the required ways. The course curriculum is relevant and makes the students industry-ready. The course curriculum is based on the AKTU exam pattern, and it is not easy. AKTU, as an examination board, is not good, but the course, faculty members, and their way of teaching in college are nice.

Placements: 57 LPA is the highest package offered here, and the average package offered is 7 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Capgemini, Autodesk, and many others. This college creates lots of good software engineers. This year's competition is very tough because the number of students being accepted is too high. We have to work very hard during our placement year. Also, all my batchmates have good minds. 70-80 percent student got placed in my college.
Infrastructure: My college provides a simple and decent campus that lacks the amenities of a more modern facility. However, the good placement opportunities at GL Bajaj more than make up for it. Wi-Fi is available throughout the campus, but classrooms are not air-conditioned. GL Bajaj excels in sports, with its football and kabaddi teams consistently winning zonal competitions.
Faculty: Some faculty members are the best. They have a lot of knowledge, listen to students, and help them anytime. Some faculty members do not have much knowledge, and they are so arrogant. The course curriculum is relevant for the theory knowledge, but not sufficient practical knowledge. Semester exams are of a moderate level and not hard.
