Other: We have enormous opportunities in the business sector and as an enterpruner. If they could provide more first-hand opportunities to interact with live fish and things, it would be better. The college conducts many events and fests as part of a union and other party-based or batch-wise. The campus crowd is very less around 600 students. Different scholarships are available like E-Grand, etc. It has extracurricular activities like NSS, NCC, different clubs, etc.

Absolutely dissatisfied because of the course I had taken. Placements were too slow to get.

Placements: 10-15 students were placed in our college at different companies. The highest package was 45,000/- per month. Agriculture-based bank IDBI was the top company that recruited for our course. Most of them got internships in various companies. Junior assistant was the role offered.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure was better than any other government-based college. Labs and classrooms of the eastern campus were well maintained, while the western campus was too old to maintain. The library was good for an average learner. The hostel is huge, and they maintained it very well. The food is good compared to other hostels, and the rates were also minimal. The mess and canteen are clean and hygienic. The badminton court is the center of attraction in the hostel. The matron has a friendly nature.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful in their own way, and all the teachers are well-qualified doctorates. The teaching quality is average. The course curriculum is not that relevant; it doesn't make the students industry-ready. The semester exams are a bit too difficult nowadays. The pass percentage is 50%.

Other: I see a future in the fisheries sector in the coming generation. The main thing about the course is we will be free from mental stress and tension. SFI is starting seriously, and the events held are awesome.
