The institute is good, but in order to get a good placement, we have work very hard.

Placements: Placements are good, but we need to work hard to get good placements. It means if students can work hard for their success, then they definitely can get a good placement here. If students want to enjoy, then they can expect a placement here. Hard work is required.

There is more focus on theoretical knowledge.

Placements: There is too much competition in the CSE field at this university. The lowest salary package offered ranges from 1-2 LPA. Many students get placed. The highest salary package offered ranges from 7-8 LPA. The top recruiting companies for our course are TCS and Tech Mahindra. Many students get internships in new startups, and not in highly rated companies.
