Our college has satisfactory faculty members and good infrastructure.

Placements: Around 5%-10% of the students got placed during graduation, and the average salary package is offered to them. None of the top companies visits our college for recruitment. However, government, semi-government and private companies visit here for placements, but placement offers do not attract the students. My batchmates are pursuing a management degree in different management colleges like IRMA, MANAGE, BHU, while some are pursuing post-graduation, etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities provided by our college are good. Labs are well-equipped with instruments. Hygiene is maintained in the hostel, and the hostel is well furnished and spacious. In the mess, the food is provided as per the menu, which is prepared by students only.
