My college experience at NGP college in IT course.
Placements: Placement cell is very good here. Students can opt for job opportunities. Companies like Wipro, Infosys, and Microsoft have entered the campus. Average salary package offered is 6 LPA - 8 LPA and the highest has gone above 25 LPA. Placements are offered on the basis of student's skills.
Infrastructure: The college is well built. It has all the decent facilities. Boys and girls hostels are also available. It is located in out campus, which is for 5 minutes walking distance. The college is strict with its in-time and maintains discipline. There are 2 canteens. There is an auditorium in Block-B.
Faculty: Faculty members at NGP are very helpful and passionate. They teach with full commitment. There are more than 10 faculty members for our course. There are guest faculty members as well. They teach in such a way that it is easy to understand and learn. All the teachers are quite qualified in their domains.
Other: Social life is good in our college. There are events and fests held.

My experience at N.G.P College.
Placements: There is a placement cell that provides job opportunities for students. The placement rate is 85% or more. Companies like Wipro and Infosys recruit students, and the average package is 5 LPA. Students have to clear tests such as aptitude tests. The highest package is above 25 LPA.
Infrastructure: The college has good infrastructure with decent amenities. The hostel campus is situated five minutes away from the main campus, which is within walking distance. There are two canteens and many blocks in our college, each designed for a different department. Hostel rooms are clean, and lunch is also provided.
Faculty: Faculty members of our course are very nice and helpful. They help build a good foundation for students. They provide notes and many learning resources. They also help with co-curricular activities and provide knowledge beyond books. They are well-qualified and learned professionals.
Other: My experience has been great, as we have hosted many events and fests. Also, our department is the most active department in our college.

DR. NGPIT is a great college in all aspects.
Placements: Top-level placements, and the graph for that is just skyrocketing as of now. Nearly 85% of students were placed in recent years, and as I am in the final semester, we too have to sit for interviews as the placement process has begun. I am thoroughly enjoying it, as companies like Tech Mahindra, Cognizant, and Infosys have already completed their recruitment.
Infrastructure: I am not a hosteller, but the residential facilities of the college are amazing. Both boys' and girls' hostels have several rooms, and even the mess facilities are good. The 6 PM timing, though, is very strict, and for this reason, strict parents can breathe easy. All five blocks are superb, but our A Block is the best of all.
Faculty: Not just in engineering, but our faculty members also ensure that our communication skills are good, and therefore, they work on them too. Their constant push to learn as much as possible is the main thing, and that is why I have all my heart for them. They are strict, but still, most students, including me, have managed to maintain good terms with them.
Other: I am a part of the Math Club and Coding Club of the college. I have had the opportunity to make connections and learn a lot through them.

Dr. NGPIT makes a student highly knowledgeable.
Placements: Dr. NGPIT placements, especially for our course, are tremendous. Calling it good would be an understatement, as I see my seniors from close quarters, and most of them are placed in the range of 8–10 LPA. Microsoft and Infosys are among some of the top recruiters visiting our campus.
Infrastructure: Boys' hostels and girls' hostels are off-campus, but they are at a walkable distance from our college. It is a beautiful campus full of academic blocks and nice open areas. There is one main canteen and one small canteen, which gives students multiple choices for meals. For sports, too, there are multiple choices, making the competition very competitive not just in academics, but in sports as well.
Faculty: The main reason for choosing this course is that my father is an engineer and he tells me the time ahead is for AI. I see this as well, and therefore all our faculty members too are well-updated with full knowledge of advanced AI. Exams and even internal tests are hard to score in here.
Other: Facilities and student clubs are all available, but academic pressure hardly gives us time to find room for our personal interests.

Dr. N.G.P.I.T has the best resources in terms of faculty members and student hostels.
Placements: Advanced AI roles and other roles were offered to students who pursued AI at Dr. NGPIT. I graduated this year and saw some of the best placements that the college has ever offered. From Infosys, TCS, Amazon, and Microsoft, many such firms came for placements. Most students were placed in these companies' Chennai offices.
Infrastructure: There were five blocks, A to E. A Block was where our classes were held. The girls' hostel was off campus but just a 5-minute walk from the campus. Good food and good rooms were the best features of our hostels. The 6 PM curfew was the only issue. Otherwise, the college infrastructure and hostel facilities at Dr. NGPIT were all top-class.
Faculty: Most, or rather over 90%, of faculty members were from the home state, and thus the language issue never became a challenge. We could ask them questions in the local language, and because they were familiar with the language, they would reply accordingly. Exams here were really tough, as there were multiple exams per semester.
Other: Flash Mob and Kanam were the two main events of our college.

My experience in this college.
Placements: Placement opportunities were quite nice, and internship fairs were held regularly. The college had a properly functioning placement cell which organized regular seminars and guest lectures to give students direction. Companies like Wipro, TCS, Tata, Tech Mahindra, Infosys, and Amazon provided a lot better placement offers to students, offering an average package range of 3 – 4.5 LPA, while the highest package was 22 – 35 LPA, companies conducted interview sessions, practical tests, and group discussions for the selection of students, selecting them based on their performance, knowledge, and experience. Additionally, companies offered internship opportunities to those who were willing to gain experience.
Infrastructure: The hostel was completely facilitated with free Wi-Fi. There was ample space provided, and the rooms were dual-sharing with separate washroom facilities for each room. The mess was pure vegetarian, offering 3 meals a day, and the quality of food offered was satisfactory.
Faculty: The faculty of the college was a team of skilled professionals in their respective fields, and those teaching were very experienced and had completed Ph.Ds in their respective fields. Most of the teachers were very good at elaborating the toughest of topics with ease. The teachers were also friendly, always ready to clear our doubts, and were always ready to help students. They followed a semester system, organizing two semesters each year. Each semester was divided into internal as well as external exams; internals were of 40 marks and externals were of 60 marks. The course curriculum of the MBA programme was designed to give students an overview of the use of management in global scenarios and top industries. The faculty members of the institute were super talented and knowledgeable. They adopted various techniques to teach course concepts, which were clear, understandable, and explicit.
