College is good. It gives you opportunities.
Placements: The placement percentage is 70%. The highest package is around 25 LPA, the average package is 7 LPA, and the lowest package is 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies that visit for placements include Oracle, TCS, Amazon, Airtel, EY, etc. In our college, students take internships themselves. IT is a practical course that focuses on tech.
Infrastructure: The hostel infrastructure is quite good. There is Wi-Fi in the hostel, but we sometimes face connection issues. There is no library in the hostel, but a study room is provided, which is very small and available only in Sadbhavna Hostel. The hostel food sometimes does not taste good, but it is clean, hygienic, and good.
Faculty: Teachers are knowledgeable, helpful, and qualified. They hold Ph.D. degrees, and some have additional qualifications along with many years of experience. The course is based on the IKGPTU syllabus. When students study in the classroom, teachers clear their doubts and solve questions in class. With at least 2 to 3 hours of self-study, students can score an 8.5+ CGPA in college.
Other: I chose this course because I am interested in technology. This course is based more on practical learning than theory. There are many activities in college, and many fests are held.

Great friends and people around.
Placements: Entry-level students with low salaries should get opportunities from better companies so that they can get better jobs and better growth opportunities. This is something the college should think about and work on, as it directly affects the students' future and their mental health.
Infrastructure: There were no good accommodation facilities. The infrastructure was a bit old and needed maintenance. There were no proper facilities or Wi-Fi connectivity. Labs were not properly equipped. The campus mess was a disaster, charging Rs. 10,000 a month and providing ridiculous food to eat. The hostels were not clean.

The campus is very beautiful but still lacks shops.
Placements: Around 20–50% of students get placed on my campus, with an average package of 5–6 LPA. The lowest package offered is 4 LPA, and the highest package is 1.2 CPA. The top recruiters on our campus are Infosys, TATA, etc. Around 40–70% of students get internship opportunities on my campus. The top role offered in my course is IT Architect.
Infrastructure: My campus is fully Wi-Fi connected, with above-average internet speed. All classrooms have AC and smart boards. We have two libraries per block, one smart/online library and another normal library. Both provide all sorts of books. I do not live in the hostel, but according to my friends, the hostel facilities are average.
Faculty: Teachers who educate us are very kind, knowledgeable, and helpful towards us. Almost all of them are Ph.D. qualified in their respective teaching subjects. My course is still safe from the danger of AI because it teaches us hardware alongside software. The semester exams in my college are neither too tough nor too easy.
Other: I chose this course because I love technology and want to explore how different things work. That is why I chose this course. I want to make my course less underrated because not many people know what we study in IT.
