Good college campus ,student life but college placements are disappointing. Faculties are amazing .
Placements: Placement is only for master's students, not bachelor's students. We heard that our master's students got placements, and if you ask any faculty, they will tell you they are working on it. There are no internships and no placements, so work hard and get yourself an internship during the semester break.
Infrastructure: The LAN connection in the hostel is decent, but sometimes it just does not work. However, you can complain and get it fixed. Mess food has improved a lot since the new tender; it's good and the menu is decent. Gyms in the hostel lack equipment, and most of the equipment doesn't work. A few hostels have a TT room, dance room, etc. We have a basketball court and badminton court, but it's usually empty. You do have a canteen inside the hostel; otherwise, for other things, you need to go to the complex.
Faculty: Faculty members are amazing—experienced in their respective industries. They are helpful. **Course Curriculum**: It's based on the UGC syllabus. We have the course divided into six semesters. The college doesn't provide any internships, so if you want to get industry-ready, do it during the semester break. **Semester Examination**: It's not that hard. You can score very well even if you study one day before the exam. We have mid-semester examinations; try to score as much as possible in the mid-semester, as it will help you clear the end-semester examination easily. Also, submit your assignments and presentations for internal assessment. Overall, you just need 40 marks out of 100 to clear the end-semester.
Other: We have every now and than something going in university - Events like motto gp Khelo India Food fest every year - Dawaat -e -GBU etc.
