It is wonderful, and one can take admission in this college.
Placements: There is no placement assistance, but one can try off-campus for the placements. There are many jobs which one can work in organisations and other areas of interest and also in the research field. One should definitely get admission here, and placements are not good.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is amazing in the university. The campus is very diverse and situated in outskirts of the city. The campus is well-equipped, and one can have a peaceful time. The campus was made many years ago. Overall, the infrastructure is very good and very vast compared to other colleges.
Faculty: The faculty members are very good. The HOD and assistant professors are well educated and experienced. Being a government university the teachers are very educated and give you much knowledge about the field. The faculty are generous and will help you with the needs and requirements.
