    Placement records are very good.
    Placements: As of 2023 placement records, 95% of students got placed. There were good placements at the department of agriculture. And also, 473 B.Tech. and 18 M.Tech. students were placed. They got placed with packages ranging from 3.2 lacs to 4.2 lacs per annum.
    Infrastructure: The classrooms were maintained properly and they were cleaned regularly. In our hostel, they were served higher-quality foods. There is a large sports ground with a stadium where one thousand people can be seated at a time. And they supported all kinds of sports.
    Faculty: The teachers were highly qualified, experienced and knowledgeable. And they always prefer industrial-oriented sessions to classroom teaching. It is a little bit difficult to crack the semester examinations, so we have to study harder to crack them.
