Overall, college is good in terms of fees.
Placements: 3 batches are running the unique, super60, and non super60 from unique. Your placement is fixed, depending on your skills, but the average package is 5 to 6 LPA. It is under contract with the company. If you do not have skills, you will be fired after 1 year.
Infrastructure: Our college has good infrastructure with playgrounds and a lot of activities, a canteen is available at affordable price, but for medical we have to go out of the college campus. A hospital is present beside the college, Gian Sagar Medical College. Overall, SVIET Punjab offers good infrastructure and supportive facilities for students. While some areas like mess food, can improve. The campus environment, labs, library, and academic support make it a suitable place for learning and growth. Each department has its own dedicated laboratories, and the CSE/IT labs are equipped with updated systems, necessary software, and proper technical support. Classrooms are spacious, well-ventilated, and many are fitted with SMART boards to make teaching more interactive. The library is one of the strong points of the campus, offering a wide collection of textbooks, reference material, journals, and a peaceful space for self-study.
Faculty: In our college, there are very good facilities present, but daily attendance is mandatory in B.Tech course otherwise, you will be fined. In terms of academics, semester exams are moderately difficult. Students who attend classes regularly and study the provided notes can score well without much stress. The institute gives proper internal assessment, class tests, and revision sessions before exams. The pass percentage is fairly high, as most students clear their semesters with consistent effort and basic preparation. Overall, SVIET provides a supportive academic environment that helps students grow both academically and professionally.
Other: There is no fresher party than the DJ night and other events.

A good campus life with decent facilities and helpful staff.
Placements: In our batch, around 70-75% students got placed through campus drives. The highest package offered was around 6-7 LPA, the lowest was close to 2 LPA, and the average package stayed around 3-3.5 LPA. Companies like HCL, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, Byju's, JustDial and a few good local firms visited our campus. Almost 40-50% students got internships as well, mainly in companies like HCL (training), local IT firms, and manufacturing units. The top roles offered in our course were mainly Software Trainee, Network Support, Sales Executive, Technician, and Junior Engineer, depending on the branch and skill level.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure was average but good enough for daily classes. Labs had the basic equipment we needed, and Wi-Fi worked most of the time. Classrooms were clean and comfortable. The library was helpful, but it needed more updated books. Hostel rooms were okay, and the food was manageable. Sports and medical facilities were simple but useful when required.
Faculty: The teachers were supportive and explained topics clearly, though teaching styles differ from teacher to teacher. The curriculum was relevant and helped in building practical skills. Exams were moderate and manageable with regular study. The pass percentage was generally good.
Other: Campus life was really good with a friendly crowd and active events. I chose this course for better career options, and the best part was the supportive environment. I just wish for more fests and more extracurricular activities.
