I am satisfied with college and it is the best college for learners.

Placements: The learning experience in KIMS is very different from other colleges. It is one of the finest colleges in India. The college has a strong alumni base and it is a 43 years old college. Placements are good this year and a placement coordinator is also newly appointed.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is poor. The college doesn't even have its building. University is given a temporary building to run the college. We have only two classrooms and one auditorium. The campus looks so beautiful and is environment friendly. For sportspeople, a university ground is available.

Faculty: Faculty members in our college are one of the finest teachers. All the teachers have a unique teaching way. The college conducts lots of cultural programs like Sankalpa-orientation day, Sammilan-parents meet, Samar-sports meet, and Samarpan - farewell day. We also have a fun week and every weekend executive meeting is conducted. Industrial visits and live projects and class projects are given to students. College gives training and a lot more than learning.
