Overall review of the college.

Placements: In the Electrical department, the maximum number of students get placed as the college mentioned 100% placement. Some students don't want placement, so they further pursue their studies. The maximum number of students get placed in companies that visit our campus. If any student is left behind because of any reason, the university will provide the placement in any way. There are many companies that select students as per their requirements and criteria.

Infrastructure: Each hostel room has been provided with Wi-Fi. College provides both online and offline library facilities. Classroom has been provided with AC. There is a lot of empty space, if you don't have classes, then you can chill there or you can do your work. Most labs are good and well-equipped. The computer-based labs are not good because the computers don't work properly, and they are useless.

Faculty: The teachers in the college are good. They have been selected because they are qualified. Most faculty members are Ph.D. qualified. If any student has any queries or questions, they will try to solve their queries. In the department, the medical and duty leave policies are very bad, and most of the time, they won't be accepted. The department heads and all the head staff misguide the students, and they are not helpful to the students.

Other: College provides 100% placement in Electrical Engineering. They don't have good electrical labs. But, in this course, they will also give useless subjects, which are not related to the course. Each year, in other courses, subjects will decrease. But, in Electrical Engineering, subjects will increase, which is not up to the mark. Good computer labs should be provided, with better projector facilities, and a seating arrangement. Events in the college are provided, but they are always postponed. Some events are held, which are done without knowing the students, and they will get to know when the event is completed.

It's absolutely worth taking admission to CU.

Placements: 50-60% of students from our batch were placed. The highest package of our batch was 12 lakh per annum and the lowest package was 3.2 lakh per annum. There were some IT companies as well as some core electrical companies, such as High Radius, Cognizant, DCX, LG, and Saint Gobain.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure was pretty good for classes, with just one disadvantage: there was no cooling system in class except for fans. Other than that, well-equipped labs and libraries were available. Hostel accommodation was one of the best, with facilities like a gym, indoor sports, and a projector hall in the hostel. The food was pretty good too.

Faculty: The teachers were very helpful and well-qualified, highly skilled, and knowledgeable. The quality of teaching was good in our classes, and there was good mentoring. Semester exams were quite difficult, but everything was taught in the classroom, so if you attended classes, you could easily score well.

Other: I opted for electrical engineering because of the opportunities in the government sector and PSUs.

I'm utterly dissatisfied with the electrical engineering department.

Placements: There were very low placements in electrical engineering. The electrical engineering department has a total strength of 55 here. The attendance criterion is strict and if you become short of attendance in an exam, the university charges Rs. 10,000 per subject to make you appear again. I personally don't recommend anyone taking admission in electrical engineering. You have to work harder to get a good placement here.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is top-notch. The greenery of the campus and the diversity are plus factors. The Wi-Fi doesn't work in the electrical engineering department, not even in the library. The classroom is not air-conditioned. To be honest, the library is good, but you will find a lot of distractions and gossip happening to students in the library. Books are available in bulk. No shortage of books. Hostels are good and the food is average. The mess and canteen are top-notch. Medical support is also available 24/7. There is enough space and a dedicated playground for sports and games. The hostel is generally 4-5-seater here. A gym facility is also there. There are restrictions on hostelers' ability to go off campus after 8:30 pm. You need to get permission from the wardens and parents for a night out.

Faculty: Teachers are not so qualified in the electrical engineering department. The quality of teaching reminds me of government schools where the teacher just completes the 40 minutes and walks away. They are supportive, by the way. Students are the priority over teachers in this university. Electrical engineering is full of mediocre students in my batch. The semester exam is online for our time due to the pandemic. Students know the way to get away with a theory exam easily. Even the viva exam isn't so hard here. The university just needs 75% attendance. If a student has less than 10% attendance, he or she must pay a fee of 10,000 rupees to reappear. That's where I think the university loots the students. To be honest, the curriculum is good. The layout on which the curriculum work is done is solid. But the implementation lacks something. Students are not groomed as per their career choice. If anyone tries studying IT or software-related things, then there is barely any support in the electrical department for the same. You have to complete the assignments and make sure to attend the lectures even though you are not interested in studying those things. If you are eager to learn or you need any kind of support, you can get it here. The teachers are supportive and the staff are good.

Our university campus has good facilities.

Placements: Around 75% of the students were placed in our course. The highest salary package is above 10 LPA, the lowest salary is 4 LPA, and the average salary package is 6 to 8 LPA. Many top companies came to our college. Above, 75% of students got internships from our college. Less than 75% also got placement in good companies.

Infrastructure: The whole university campus is Wi-Fi enabled, along with the hostels. Every block has its own library. There were a lot of fans in the classrooms but no air conditioners. All the labs provided good facilities with all the equipment. The infrastructure is almost good looking.

Faculty: The teachers at our college were helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. There was a huge teaching quantity. This course is relevant because it makes the student industry-ready. The semester exam is not much more difficult than the college pass percentage, which is around 50.

Other: I opted for this course because I wanted to make a flying electric car. The best things about this course are jobs in government and the private sector.
