MCA is better than M.Sc.; the companies prefer MCA.
Placements: 60% of students were placed in our course. 7.3 LPA was the highest, 3.6 LPA was the lowest, and the average package is 3.6 LPA. TCS, Rently, Cognizant, Turbolab, SOTI, Tata Elxsi, etc. No one got an internship from our course. Everyone did the project. System engineers and AI developers are the top roles offered by our course.
Infrastructure: The classrooms are limited. The labs are very good. But the department can't accommodate everyone in one lab. There is a shortage of classrooms. Food, medical, and sports facilities are all good. Many sports events will be hosted for the department, and it's nice.
Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and helpful. All the teaching staff were professors. Yes, the course curriculum is relevant. But I won't guarantee that students will be industry-ready because it's a state-owned autonomous college. The semester exams' difficulty depends on the faculty members. The pass percentage in our class was 100 percent.
