Really good faculty, good environment, best place for fun and learn.
Placements: Being a new university with very limited students(350), it is providing many external internships opportunities. I don't have any idea about the placements as our batch gets the first degree from this college, this year. Carrer planning and future courses is a spectrum, which is going well for the 3rd-year students.
Infrastructure: Everything is fine from hostel rooms to the classrooms. The classrooms have good infrastructure and space to work. The library is open 24/7. We have a computer lab, the speed of the Wi-Fi is reasonable. Food seems to be average sometimes, but the canteen is open until 11 pm. There are no issues related to the infrastructure, and we get the fast responses if any.
Faculty: The best thing is we address every faculty and staff member with their first name or in the way they would like to be called. They are very friendly, in and out of the class. The curriculum is very different from others, continuous assessment is the pattern. Stress-free education and there is only 3-hour class for each course in a week. For example, I have 5 courses, I will be attending 2 slots of 1 and 1/2 classes for each course in a week which literally means I attend 15 hours of classes in a week. The class participation and interaction is something which is considered to be very important.
Other: This is the best place to have fun with education and learn in a way that you want to. We have a course called understanding India for 5 semesters which is very useful and develops our view of India. First-year seminar and advanced writing courses focus on critical reading and writing. Many other activities, clubs, forums, and talks contribute to the overall development.

A treat to students who want to enjoy college life and achieve something in their interested field.
Placements: Around 90% of students have been placed in my college, and their salary packages are pretty high. I don't think I can disclose that information. Around 80% of students get internships from various companies. The jobs offered in my course include content writing, assistant professors, etc.
Infrastructure: My campus has the best hostel in India and a 40-storey building with two canteens: one right in front of the hostel so that students can eat whenever they want to, and the other near our class buildings so that we don't have to miss classes. The quality of food is also great.
Faculty: The teachers are all degree holders and have around 8 years of experience in the teaching field. The course is definitely relevant as it prepares us for the next phase of our lives, whatever it is that we are aiming for. The semester exams are pretty easygoing, and failing is the hardest part.
Other: The college also organizes Unmukt, an event where students share their talents and get a chance to stand out and make themselves proud.
