It's average in every aspect.
Placements: As far as I know, placements are better than any other college in Greater Noida. It is good in placements but not the best, as it is a 3-tier college. While it’s not the best in placements, it’s better compared to other colleges in Knowledge Park 3, but you can have better options.
Infrastructure: The hostel is average. Food is the worst. The course is great with no complaints about it. The hostel needs a lot of improvement, especially in terms of hostel management. Recently, there was a fire in the hostel mess, but we were unaware of it until there was shouting, and that’s when we found out.
Faculty: Faculty is average. The first semester was great in terms of faculty, but now they lack quality. The exams are good, as there are revision papers and many other exams every month. Recently, I gave 2-3 exams, but after a while, you will feel burdened by all the exams.

In the batch of 2026, placements for the ECE branch are very low, and students suffer a lot.
Placements: 60 percent are placed. The highest placement package is 16 LPA. The average placement package is 6 LPA, and the lowest placement package is 3.6 LPA. Inmobi provides placements for about 16 LPA in Lucknow. About 60 percent of students get internships in many different companies, like Useful BI, Airtel, etc. Roles like GET and SDE are offered.
Infrastructure: Labs have sufficient equipment, but all the equipment is too old. Some don’t work. Wi-Fi doesn’t work. It provides a network at a very slow speed. Hostel rooms are average, but the washrooms are very dirty. The hostel food tastes so bad that you will sleep without eating.
Faculty: Teachers are knowledgeable, but due to strict actions, students don’t like to go to classes. Some teachers’ teaching quality is good. College has its own syllabus, so it is good for us, but we can’t find any YouTube channels to study. Semester exams are average, and about 90 percent of students pass the exam.
Other: I chose this course because ECE has both placement opportunities in software and hardware.

Good infrastructure and overall a good college.
Placements: Good placements in my college. Approximately 40 percent of students are placed in my course. The highest package is 40 LPA, and the median package is 5 LPA. The top companies that visit for placements are TCS, Wipro, Cisco, Microsoft, and many mass-hiring companies.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is world-class, very beautiful, and elegant, and it is located in Greater Noida. Wi-Fi is available throughout the college. Classrooms are fully Wi-Fi-enabled and air-conditioned. Many sports facilities are available on the campus of Galgotias University.
Faculty: Faculty of the college is highly qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is very good. Teachers explain the subjects well. The course is industry-related. The semester exams are not too difficult. They are easy to moderate.
Other: I chose this course to make a career in the information technology field.

Know the truth, quality of KCC Institute of Technology & Management (KCC ITM).
Placements: KCCITM reports strong placements, claiming as high as 100% for its students in the recent past and an average of 32 LPA as the highest for B.Tech students. Several reputed companies include EY, Accenture, Deloitte, and IBM. However, the average package is still around 12 LPA. The students also get internships with giant firms like Microsoft and Amazon, thus showing good connections with the industry. And I observed that the placement chances are very high if you keep growing up among all others.
Infrastructure: The 40-acre campus of KCC ITM, Greater Noida, has an all-inclusive infrastructure comprising state-of-the-art, air-conditioned classrooms with the latest audiovisual aids, extensive Wi-Fi in all its areas, high-tech IT and engineering labs, a rich library with digital resources, and separate hostels for both boys and girls with modern amenities, such as AC rooms, gymnasium, and messes. Extensive sports facilities on campus include cricket, basketball, tennis, a swimming pool, auditoriums, medical aid facilities, transport facilities, and eco-friendly initiatives such as rainwater harvesting. The campus is equipped with CCTV and has been built as an eco-friendly, car-free zone.
Faculty: The faculty is very strict towards discipline, so there are no extra events organised, and the professors are very highly qualified and knowledgeable. Their teaching skills are very good. The semester exam is not tough or hard for those who studied in the class.

I really don't like this place.
Placements: Well, I haven't seen any placements in forensic till now. There aren't many companies or packages that I have gotten any information about till now. I feel like this university is great if you are pursuing B. Tech because they actually provide placements. I won't recommend this place to anyone though.
Infrastructure: I live in their hostel only. Well, about girls' hostel, it's actually nice. The food is average and not that great, but it's still bearable. They provide transport 24/7, AC, and geyser. Electricians and carpenters are available. Once you complain about anything, they'll fix it as soon as possible.
Faculty: Well, personally I don't like some of the faculty members in forensic department specifically. But the faculty members of other courses and some of the faculty members from our course are really great, nice, and genuine. They provide us guidance and help to solve the problems and challenges we face.
Other: The place is so crowded, especially the university. I have seen multiple universities, but I haven't seen a crowd like this. There's no place to even sit here. They even take admissions after examination, which is kind of absurd. They should actually do the crowd management nicely because it gets too irritating at some point.

My college is really good.
Placements: Placement is average, and if you have skills, you might get placement.

Infrastructure: College infrastructure is very beautiful but very short. The canteen is also very short. Labs are well maintained, and the library is average. They don’t have their own hostel and have tie-ups with other hotels. College Wi-Fi is good. They also concentrate on sports, etc.
Faculty: Facilities are good, and most of the teachers are educated from IIT and NIT. They are focused on your academics and a little bit on your skills. You have to put self-effort to develop skills. This college is affiliated with AKTU, and obviously, you know about AKTU.
