Good hostel and Muslim-friendly environment.

Placements: Most students get placed in each class. Companies like JPMorgan and Accenture come for the placement and get students. If you study well and follow the guidelines of the teachers you will have a high chance of getting placed with a decent salary, all the best.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available in all areas across the campus. The only thing you need to know is the password of the Wi-Fi otherwise it's a headache. Apart from that the libraries are good and have fast processing computers so you don't have to worry about bringing a laptop to college.

Faculty: Teachers here decently help you. Don't expect spoon-feeding like in school. Apart from that, the syllabus is pretty old, but the exams are easy to crack. You can study one day before the exam, and it's easy. If you want to learn in-depth, then it's in ur own hands.

A good college if you are a good student.

Placements: Companies from a good background come for placements but mostly students do not get selected. They go as far as the final round. The average package is also around 4 LPA. I think the students are not given enough training for industry exposure and interview handling.

Infrastructure: The lab facilities and department blocks are really good with well-equipped instruments. The library has a lot of up-to-date books that we can easily borrow. For the hostel choosing an AC room is better. The hostel food is average. Some dishes are good. There is a limitation for each student. Sports are not considered a big factor until you come under the government quota.

Faculty: Teachers are really knowledgeable. If you get along well they will give good guidance. The course curriculum gets updated after a certain period according to the students' preferences. The pass percentage is high. The semester exams and CAT have been given enough holidays to prepare.

Other: I think what needs to be improved is that they organise events, lectures, and talent shows. There is not much connectivity among students. The best thing about my course is that electronics will always be in the field. The campus does not handle rain well that is a problem.

Top performers get recognized with the correct things.

Placements: Purely technological companies including Anthem Biosciences, Catalyst Clinical Research, Syneos Health, and Retro Biotech have been constantly showing their recruitment since the 2020 batches. Organizations like Regional Centre for Biotechnology and IISER offer internships to the top-performing candidates.

Infrastructure: A medical community is open on the campus at all times and works 24 hours, considering emergency situations as 3 to 4 hostels are located inside the campus. Every day, a free session is scheduled to discuss extracurricular activities to avoid creating unnecessary hindrance during class. Classrooms are fully air-facilitated with a number of doors and windows, comfortable desks for seating, and storage for books.

Faculty: Professors have evolved into newer versions, upgraded with current research papers related to biotechnology. Throughout the four semesters, there are 24 theoretical papers and 9 practical papers. Professors give warnings for any incomplete work or wrong actions. They punish severely only if it’s a complicated issue.

Hostel quality was also good.

Faculty: The teachers were helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality of our faculty members was good. Course curriculum was relevant. Students had to self-prepare for the skills required. Semester examinations of the college were of moderate level.

Absolutely satisfied because of good placements, facilities, and really good infrastructure.

Placements: Around 100 to 130 students get placed. The average package is 3 LPA to 8 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Movate, Embedyour, Foxconn, Unlimited Innovation, Virtusa, Cognizant, and Accenture. About 60% of students got internships at companies like Infosys, ISRO, etc. Roles offered include Software Engineer, AI Intern, Data Analyst, Cloud, DevOps, and Data Science.

Infrastructure: Our college has very good infrastructure. We have many classrooms and lab facilities. Everyone can access the Wi-Fi inside the college. The department is very good. The courses offered are really valuable. The food offered here is 8/10. Medical facilities are 10/10. Sports facilities are also 10/10.

Faculty: Faculty members are well-qualified and knowledgeable. The curriculum is up to date. It is updated according to new technologies. We don't have an outdated syllabus, so we can learn everything happening in real time related to the industry. The difficulty level is medium and depends on the individual. Most students can score up to 7.5 minimum.

Other: I chose AI because the curriculum of my course is very updated. There are many events, but the cultural activities are not very good. The campus is ragging-free. The rules and regulations are not very strict. They offer scholarships for engineering students who scored greater than 80% and 90% in their 12th board exams. There are various extracurricular activities.

Chose it for the atmosphere, stayed for the people.

Placements: Our placement process is still ongoing since it is only November, so the final numbers are not out yet. For now, around 20% of students get placed. More companies are still coming. The highest package for Marketing roles is about 7–8 LPA, while the average package ranges from 4–5 LPA. The minimum offers start around 3 LPA. Internships are compulsory for everyone because the internship viva is part of the semester examination, so almost 90% of students complete it on time. The main roles offered include Marketing, Finance, HR, Data Analytics, and Logistics.

Infrastructure: Our department provides really good facilities for students. Every classroom has a table and Wi-Fi connection, which makes online access and academic work much easier. We also have a well-equipped lab. This is especially useful because we have a semester focused on SAP, where we get hands-on learning. The classrooms are comfortable, with AC and good seating arrangements. The first-year setup is excellent, and the second-year rooms are equally good. Our library is one of the best parts of the department. It is spacious, well-organized, and has a vast collection of books that support our academic needs.

Faculty: The lecturers and professors in our department are well-qualified. Their teaching quality is genuinely helpful for students. They explain concepts clearly and make the subjects easier to understand. The course curriculum is designed to give us practical exposure. It makes students somewhat industry-ready by including relevant subjects and activities. As for semester exams, they are neither too difficult nor too easy. The difficulty level is moderate, so regular studying is enough to score well. The pass percentage usually ranges between 50% and 60%, depending on the semester and the overall performance of the batch.

Other: I chose to do an MBA because I wanted a strong second degree. In today’s world, one qualification isn’t enough, and an MBA gives better opportunities and real business knowledge. I also love the campus vibe. The crowd is good. There are three canteens, and plenty of places to chill. For Muslims, there is a prayer area like a small mosque near the hostel where women can pray, and even Jumu’ah prayers with jamat happen there. I discovered it only in my second semester, and it honestly makes me love the campus even more.
