A pretty cool college, you can take admission.
Placements: About 40% of students got placed in my college last year. The highest package was of 6 LPA and the lowest was of 3 LPA meanwhile average package ranged from 4-5 LPA. Top recruiting companies such as Mahindra, came last year. There is no internship provided by the college, you have to do it on your own.
Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure, both are quite satisfactory. Library is well maintained with a lot of books. Classrooms don't have SMART projectors and the Wi-Fi is available for the staff only. I don't know much about the hostel but as my friends told, the food in the mess is not that good, it's average. Medical facilities are there, and college has its hospital where students get a 5% discount. Sports and athletics are quite good.
Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is quite impressive. They give practical knowledge, the most. Course curriculum is relevant and it makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are a little hard, one has to study properly.

It’s good, but not that much.
Placements: About 20% of students get placed in my college each year. The highest package is 5 LPA and the lowest is 3 LPA, with the average package being 2 LPA. The top recruiting companies such as Mahindra and TCL visited last year. There are not many jobs in B.A.
Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure both are quite satisfactory. The library is well-maintained with a lot of books. Classrooms do not have smart projectors, and Wi-Fi facility is available only for the staff. I don't know much about the hostel, but as my friends told me, the food in the mess is not that good, it's average. The medical facilities are there, and the college has its own hospital where students get a 5% discount. Sports and athletics facilities are quite good.
Faculty: This institution provides the best quality of education with excellent faculty members that support both theoretical as well as practical knowledge. Professors are well-qualified, and they provide knowledge, skills, and expertise to students. I love this college for its faculty members.

My Kalinga University review.
Placements: At the start of the 5th Semester, in the third year, students are eligible for on-campus placement drives. At the end of 2nd-semester, the placement cell conducts training. They improve communication skills, dressing sense, and many other things so that students can grab more placement opportunities. Approximately 95% of students get placed on on-campus placements. The highest salary package offered is 30 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 2.5 LPA. The college placement cell helps students get internships as it has the best alumni network across the world. Roles offered by companies depend on your knowledge and skills.
Infrastructure: College conducts many events every year like a fresher party, technical events, sports events, Garba night, etc., so that students can enjoy their college life. Campus is very big with a lot of greenery inside the campus. Inside campus, there are a lot of facilities provided for students like 24/7 Wi-Fi, a cafeteria, canteen, big playground area, indoor sports, etc. Labs and classrooms are well-maintained and well-furnished. Facilities provided for the hosteler are quite good.
Faculty: Kalinga has the best teachers compared to other private colleges. Many of them are foreign returns. All teachers are masters in their subjects. The teaching style is excellent. They teach you in a systematic way so that students can understand the concept easily rather than learning bookish knowledge. Kalinga is a university, so semester exams are conducted inside the campus. Checking of the question paper is done by the college teacher but that doesn't mean you pass the exams without study. College conducts many exams before semester exams. The internal marks depend on the college exams.

Kalinga is the best university.
Placements: At the end of the 5th semester, students are eligible for on-campus placement drives. The placement cell of the college is amazing. Our faculty members are highly qualified and dedicated to our placements. Approximately 90% of students get placed on on-campus placements. Placements depend on your knowledge and skills. Our college only helps by giving guidance, and the rest of the work is done by students like cracking aptitude tests, coding rounds, etc. Roles offered by companies depend on your skills, course, and criteria set for the job.
Infrastructure: The campus is very big with a lot of facilities provided inside like a playground area, 24/7 Wi-Fi with good speed internet, a cafeteria for students to hangout with their friends in their free time, and a separate library for all academic buildings. Classrooms and labs are well-maintained and well-equipped. Facilities provided for the hosteler are quite amazing. The quality of the mess food is good.
Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and experienced. Many of them are foreign return teachers and all are Ph.D. holders. The teaching style is very systematic so that every student can understand the topic easily. The bond between students and teachers is friendly so that student can ask their doubts without any hesitation. Kalinga is a university, so exams are conducted inside the campus but that doesn't mean you pass exams without studying. Every year, there are two-semester exams. If you clear both semester exams with minimum back criteria set by the university, you can get the next year of your course. Otherwise, you have to repeat that year. Semester exams are very difficult. If you attempt college exams and score good marks, you can easily clear semester exams with a good percentage. If you top in the class or branch, you will get a topper award. The topper award will be given every year for all courses.
