The university has good infrastructure facilities and a good option for students.

Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure available for my department are not at all good, but they are average. The Wi-Fi facility is always active, but it does not give a good network connection. The classrooms are okay, having good seats, fans, and a digital board. But in summer, they are so hot.

I am absolutely satisfied because of the infrastructure, great faculty members, and good placements.

Infrastructure: There were many facilities like canteens, Wi-Fi, fully AC classrooms, and libraries. The infrastructure was also awesome. Vehicles were available, the environment was good, nearby bus stands were accessible, and the whole college infrastructure looked classic. The hostel had average facilities with two bedrooms. The quality of the food, both in taste and hygiene, was the best. A canteen was also available, and medical facilities, sports, and games were organized on a monthly or annual basis.

Overall 4/5 rating of the college because of the not-so-good college life and infrastructure.

Infrastructure: The college facilities are very good. There are a number of computer labs and other labs in the entire college for every course. The library is also available where you get all types of books like for competitive exams, biographies, comics, academics, and every type. Classrooms for the B.Tech department are not very good, as the seats are very small and you cannot sit comfortably. Although each room has AC.

Absolutely experienced faculty members create memorable learning experiences in this college.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is not very good in terms of the hostel and facilities. But the environment is better, with experienced faculty and proper administration and management. The quality of hostel facilities is not very good because the hostels are congested. They have less space, but the college seems to be big with large buildings as well.

I'm totally satisfied with faculty members and the college experience.

Placements: Around 75-80 percent of students from our batch got placed. The highest package offered is around 12 LPA, the lowest is 3.5 LPA, and the average package stood at 5.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies include TCS, Infosys, and Wipro. About 60 percent of students secured internships, mostly in tech and management roles like System Engineer and Data Analyst.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is awesome, with approximately Ethernet speed of about 700-800 Mbps, libraries are best for studying, and classrooms are digital and fine. Almost all labs are interested in such a great Ethernet speed, and you can even take your own laptop to the lab if you need to.
