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 We don't have an outdated syllabus, so we can learn everything happening in real time related to the industry.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.

Other: I chose this course because my parents told me to, but still, it is good. I got to choose this course, for the upcoming era as computers and AI is everywhere.
