An animal laboratory for research is a plus point, as you can handle animals.
Placements: In total, a few engineering departments and science departments will have campus placements. In particular, regarding the department of geology, these days, campus placement is not available, as off-campus job opportunities are huge. Within six months of the course completion, students will be placed in mining, oil and natural gas, research, groundwater, and many more sectors, either by government agencies or by private agencies like NGC, OIL, CIL, and organizations.
Infrastructure: Students who live far from their native place were lucky enough to get basic preparation and save their computing time by availing of the hostel. There was a separate hostel allotted to boys and girls with good infrastructure as well as amenities like hygienic washrooms and 24/7 water facilities.
Faculty: The course touches on all the aspects that are needed for industry purposes. There are two CIAs and one end-of-semester exam. Each CIA is of 20 marks. The first one is written, while the second one is either objective-type questions, projects, or presentations. The end-semester exam is of 60 marks. The student needs to get a combined 40 marks to pass the subject in a particular semester.

Teachers are so friendly and very much helpful in academic activities.
Placements: TCS, Infosys, Accenture, and Cognizant are some of the companies that recruit our graduates. They hire for software roles, while core companies like Tata Motors and Jindal hire for supervisors, junior engineers, and some managerial posts. In our final year, we have to complete a project based on ML or AI, blockchain, or any other new technology.
Infrastructure: The college had annual arts and sports meets and festivals which helped in understanding the true potential of students other than academic activities. The college library and department library had many books and international journals to read. The activities of National Service Scheme and National Cadets Corps are also commendable.
Faculty: The faculty members at this college are quite good and helpful. They are always punctual to class, and classes are conducted on a regular basis. The faculty-to-student ratio is well maintained, and each student is assigned a faculty advisor. The exam pattern consists of a midterm (25 marks), an end term (60 marks), a teacher assessment (15 marks), and lab marks (100 marks).

Fest are organized less compared to the other private colleges.
Placements: Many students got placed for their own talents but the college does not provide any placement facilities. The highest salary offered is 2 LPA, average salary is 1.5 LPA, and the lowest salary offered is 1 LPA. Top roles and companies do not depend on the college, it totally depends on the students. The college needs to improve their placement facilities.
Infrastructure: The college is under CCTV surveillance. It has Wi-Fi facilities, well structured and well-equipped labs, library and classrooms available. The college has hostels, canteen, and medical facilities for the students with an extra curricular activities area. The canteen has good quality of food.
Faculty: The teachers’ teaching quality is not too good, but they have knowledge, are qualified and helpful. This course curriculum is relevant, and it does not make the students industry ready. The semester exams are not difficult but cheating is not allowed. 70% students got passing marks.
Other: I love Geology which is why I chose this course.
