The college has good infrastructure and good decorum; it is average in socializing.

Placements: Placement life stuff is average, but companies like Amazon and other big companies come. However, it depends on the student's ability to secure placement. It's hard to make placements because it's private, but we have the opportunity to take a placement in this college because companies come.

Infrastructure: Good infrastructure, like hotel hostels, nice roads, chairs, planted roads, decorum, all good. We have a basketball court and an auditorium. We have performances and modeling. All good things, like infrastructure, main buildings, and modeling, are available.

Faculty: Our college has good teachers, and every teacher is well educated. They use meaningful words to explain. Nice decorum is maintained in class, good infrastructure, and all good things. Average in socializing; students are not in decorum as well, thinking about that, but don't show it. All that is good.

I don't know what to write but I miss those days.

Placements: Students with a percentage of 50 to 60 percent got placed. The maximum fees for this course are 9.68 lakhs. The minimum package is 5.70 LPA and the average is 7.68 LPA. I don't know about recruiting companies because I visited the university directly. Students with a minimum of 50-60 percent got internships. Roles offered are Business Analyst interns.

Infrastructure: There is modern infrastructure, smart classes, labs, and a library. There are quite good quality facilities in the hotel like neat and clean rooms, a canteen till 10:00 PM, a mess with quality food, and a sports room. A medical facility is also available. Also 24/7 security is there to ensure the safety of every single student.

Faculty: Teachers are really helpful during the semesters and they have great experience in teaching with quality knowledge. It makes students industry-ready. Students can get a job just after completion of the course and CU also helps them get a job. Exams are not difficult to pass. The pass percentage is 60 percent.

Other: I chose this course because I was interested in doing business not jobs or internships. I love to take part in events and fests.

Decent college with average placements, good campus life and good infrastructure.

Placements: Around 65-75% students got placed. The highest package was almost 12 LPA. The top recruiter company was TCS. About 50 to 60% students got an internship. Top roles were software developer, web developer, graphic designer and Product manager. Overall, college placement is good.

Infrastructure: The college provides very good infrastructure for the Computer Science department. Classrooms are equipped with projectors, and labs have basic systems for coding. Sometimes the lab's computer and pc don't work because of some issue, and the wiring is not properly done; otherwise, it's good.

Faculty: Faculty members are generally helpful and qualified. They still need to get updated on AI and the latest technology. The pass percentage is quite high, about 70 to 80%, and everyone is allowed to pass the exam with a good percentage, or else they have to retake the exam.

B.Sc.(Hons.) in Medical Laboratory Technology - Batch of 2029

Absolutely dissatisfied and regret my decision to get admission here.

Placements: There is no placement for MLT students as it is a clinical course and students have to work in a hospital or labs but they do provide an internship in the 8th semester which is for all the students and every student has to attend the mandatory internship.

Infrastructure: I won't lie, the labs are not as good as I expected. The machines don't work, and the management is really bad. For the hostel, as I stay in a girls' hostel, the facilities are average, but according to the fees, they still lack in most parts. The management does not listen and will not care about students. You are not allowed to use the lift although our department is on the 6th floor. We don't even have a lab for anatomy even though it is one of our core subjects. They don't approve of medical leave.

Faculty: The faculty is cooperative but most of them don't know how to teach they got jobs because of connections or experience. Curriculum is not designed as per the government rules and exams are easy but for me I am not satisfied with the overall experience of the university. I hope this gets better and the management will improve. I would still suggest you not take admission here.

Other: I wanted to experience the lab life and wanted to explore this side of the clinical work but I am very disappointed in that case. If you are interested in attending events and concerts and not really serious about studies this college is for you but for students like me who are really serious about their future and career and are sincere about studies who don't like attending events too often this university is for you.
