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.

Faculty is fine, infrastructure is awesome, and fees are reasonable, according to the facilities.

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.

It has a balanced and comprehensive strong placement in 2026. It has a lush green infrastructure.

Infrastructure: In most learning, technical, and management institutes today, the infrastructure is designed to be smarter and more integrated with Wi-Fi and connectivity. Most campuses now offer high-speed 5G or Wi-Fi connectivity. The mess should be changed. Students should be committed to deciding the menu. Quality is generally hygienic, but can feel repetitive.
