The worst college campus and the infrastructure. Faculty is good.
Placements: The placements are very low and okay. On advertisements, they mention big placement packages, but those are only 1 or 2 students getting that out of 10, so don't get attracted to that quickly. Check the campus before enrolling.
Infrastructure: The worst infrastructure ever, they will trick you by showing only one block of the South campus, but then at the end they will say go to the out campus, 7 km away from the main campus, if you do BCA, MCA, from CU. Big lies and the worst marketing tactics. Be aware of this.
Faculty: The faculty, on the other hand, is really good and supportive. They really guide and help in every aspect, even in studies or life mentorship as well. The curriculum is overall good enough to get you started, and the rest depends on your efforts.

The worst university ever, but money can buy a rank for them.
Placements: Through BCA, there are no such placements. We have nearly 1,000 students, but only 20% choose TPP to sit for placements, and only 1% of those students get placed. The management and higher authorities are poor, and the college mainly focuses on making money.
Infrastructure: I'm not a hostel resident, but I hear from my classmates that the hostels are in okay condition, though there are no attached washrooms. There was also leakage in MS in 2022. Many girls have committed suicide, and the food is average to below average. Privacy in hostels is a joke.
Faculty: The teachers might be helpful, but the higher authorities (HOD, coordinator) are the worst and never help students. They give illogical responses to student queries. Nothing works in labs; there's no practical knowledge. It feels like a waste of money, and you have to pay thousands if you fail or are detained in a subject.
Other: Firstly, the BCA campus is not on the main CU campus; it's about 10-12 km away from the main campus. There's only a building rented from another college, with no proper infrastructure and no discipline at all.

Amazing infrastructure and a way for a good career.
Placements: Good number of placements are there. There is also a training program for students who want to secure a placement through campus, in which they train us for interviews and help us answer questions about our communication skills.
Infrastructure: The campus infrastructure is unbelievably beautiful and amazing. All kinds of facilities, including Wi-Fi, good food, computer labs, chemical labs, canteens, and medical facilities, are very good. The hostel facilities and security are also very nice, as I am a hosteller, they provide good quality of food, 24/7 electricity and water, pure drinking water, cleaning staff are also available all the time, and Wi-Fi is provided.
Faculty: Faculty in some departments have poor communication skills, but if we consider the university as a whole, then most of the staff are well-qualified and experienced. Almost all the teachers have a very good knowledge of their subject. The teachers are approachable. There are strict attendance rules. No proxy is allowed, and you have to maintain at least 76% attendance. There is a benefit if you have attendance above 90% then you will be rewarded with 2 marks in that particular subject.
Other: The course I have chosen is very good, and I think I can make my career through this university with this course. I am enjoying my campus life as everybody is so friendly that I have got a good number of friends, and the seniors we have are very nice to us. They guide us on everything.
