    I'm overall satisfied with everything about our college.
    Placements: Our department helps to find placements. They provide enough exposure with contacts, e-mail IDs, and information about placements across all sectors. They are always supportive and helpful to all students. I hope the placement facilities will be upgraded more.
    Infrastructure: We have proper internet, labs, classroom, halls, and seminar hall facilities in our department. They have more than one computer to help the students with further studies. The library facilities in the department and in the college are really great. The canteen is also good with all the facilities.
    Faculty: Our course curriculum is good, but not the best. This is an elite class college. The quality of the curriculum can be good. But the professors are really helpful, and they provide enough information about education. The exams and internals are a bit hard.

    Infrastructure: In this college, you can get Wi-Fi everywhere. Students can get Wi-Fi I directly in their hostel room. The library room is very clean and disciplined. The classrooms are modern.
