I am absolutely dissatisfied with placements.
Placements: Only 40% of students got placed in my course. The highest package ranges from 12-13 LPA and the average package is 3 LPA. Top companies visit the college and among those I know is Indigo only. Around 60-70% of students get internships without any stipend and only 30% of students get internships with a stipend. The data analyst role is offered here.
Infrastructure: There are labs, a library, Wi-Fi, and everything but compared to other departments in the university, there is nothing no AC in classes and poor buildings. The hostel is very poor with facilities. Rooms are very small and less spacious. Everything is congested there.
Faculty: Teachers in my course are only qualified. They do not know how to teach leaving some 2-3 teachers who just come into the class and look into the slides and repeat whatever is given in that. The course curriculum is very good and relevant. Semester exams are okay and are easy to pass if know anything about the subject.
Other: I chose this course on the recommendation of my sister. The college should improve placements of our course. Campus life is very energetic and cheerful.
