Here is a personal experience and a tip for students.
Placements: About 60% of students from my batch were placed. The highest salary package offered was 16 LPA, the average salary package offered was 5 LPA. And the lowest salary package offered was 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies during the recession period included TCS, Deloitte, and Accenture. Students were given the choice of a free virtual internship via Eduskills or a paid offline or online internship through Phoenix Global, Hyderabad. An online internship costs around Rs. 5,000, while the online option is approximately half the price. System Engineer and Web Developer roles were the most sought out for.
Infrastructure: We had Wi-Fi at the college, and lectures were mostly taught via presentations. There is a cricket stadium, as well as a cricket-cum-basketball ground. College also has an indoor stadium called Kodi Drama Stadium, which includes areas for table tennis, carrom, and chess. Additionally, there is an outdoor tennis net and an indoor badminton area.
Faculty: Presentations, PDFs, Word documents, and notes were provided on online portals via Learn. Our batch started with Python as the programming language, but C has been deemed more relevant for beginners. This is how the courses are taught for the 2021 batch onwards. Semester exams are generally easy to difficult unless the course is something like AI, where the questions can be tricky or asked directly.
Other: CSE is also crucial, as coding is important in every field of work now. I suggest having a clear goal simply put, want to become a data analyst or work in the data domain, student should choose CSE with a Data Science specialization. Alternatively, in core CSE, choose subjects like Data Mining and Emerging Technologies as part of your electives, since other subjects, like Entrepreneurship, might not help. Subjects like ML, ADSML, and NNDL should be taken throughout entire 4 years, semester-wise. Enjoy as many events at least during first year.
