Best for studies and to get jobs.

Placements: Most of the students got jobs in college placements, such as lab technician and field executive. Their package is 15 to 20 thousand per month. There are different kinds of companies recruiting at my college, like Avanti. Students got good scores in my college.

Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are super good. They provide healthy food and mineral water. For study purposes, they provide a study room and a gym. The hostel is cleaned every day, and hygiene is maintained. They also provide buses from the campus to the hostel.

Faculty: In our department, teachers are experienced candidates and qualified scholars. In the lab and class, they explain very well, it’s easy to understand for everyone. Those semesters are somewhat difficult, but if we study carefully and with interest, it’s not a big matter.

Compared to other degree colleges and our college is the best.

Placements: I am not interested in placements because I have joined only for the degree certificate. I thought of preparing for a government job. So I didn't concentrate on campus placements. I have been preparing for 3 years in college itself. They provided CRT classes.

Infrastructure: The labs and classrooms are neat and clean.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is superb. We are having debates and group discussions every week about the current situations. For the semester exams we were prepared beforehand by conducting weekly exams, so that we perform well in the semester exams. Faculty are very friendly with every student at the same time very conscious about the completion of the syllabus and making us skilled in every subject. These 3 years we have become very close with the teachers.

Good option in Visakhapatnam, but not really great in terms of social life.

Placements: Placements are pretty decent compared to other colleges in Visakhapatnam. The highest package is given by Flipkart, nearly 33 LPA and the lowest is 3 LPA. The top recruiter is Infosys, with more than 300 students recruited in 5 roles and packages. Almost 95% of the batch is placed for full-time or internship. Top role offered is SDE.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is pretty decent. We have a dedicated block for each course and individual mini auditoriums. Classrooms are pretty spacious, and Wi-Fi is available in every classroom. But in some classrooms, the projector doesn't work properly. Labs are nice with built-in systems. I don't really know about the medical facilities in the college. There is a basketball court, cricket nets, badminton nets, and a throwball court. There is also an indoor games area with a table tennis court and a chess area.

Faculty: All the assistant professors have completed their post-graduation, and associate professors have finished their PhDs. The teaching is good, but it's mostly self-taught. Most of the faculty try to teach using examples and real-world problems. But some just read the PPT and go. The course curriculum is actually relevant and gives a strong foundation. It would be better if it were updated every 2-3 years. Semester exams are quite well balanced, which means there are both easy and confusing questions. The pass percentage for each subject is over 90%.

Other: I chose this because I got a good APCET rank, and honestly, for a free seat, it is value for money. But unlike other colleges, the campus life is very bad as there are no fests or celebrations, very limited student-run clubs, closer to 0 socializing activities. It's a good place to study and get a placement, but it's not a really great place to network.
