Truth about KL University.

Placements: The placement season this year is not good because of the market conditions, as companies are trying to save money by NIT. Considering the students to hire, 10% of students have not been placed, so it's hard work only and continuous dedication till you get placed.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure here is very good, as compared to the other universities. The hostel is world-class and has many facilities, including a swimming pool, which can be used by the students to swim, play, enjoy, and work hard towards their success. There is also good food.

Faculty: The curriculum is the best in class compared to other colleges. When it comes to the global certification, we are the best in class because the college mandates doing 4 certifications in 4 years so it is good here also, the exam pattern is good, and the resources given by the faculty are also good.

Other: Our college conducts two fests annually, which are good and world-class. They conduct those fests, we can enjoy a lot here, and there are some fests that are conducted every month.

Good placements as compared to other private colleges.

Placements: College ensures that every student who has enrolled in campus recruitment training gets placed in some of the other companies. 100% is the placement rate. The highest package is around 70 LPA, while the lowest is around 1 LPA - 2 LPA. Average salary is 6 LPA - 7 LPA. Top recruitment companies include JPMC, Juspay, TCS, etc. Top roles offered in the course are full-stack developer, SDE, front-end and back-end developer.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are well-ventilated and spacious. It has well-structured laboratories with a campus wide range of Wi-Fi, ensuring connectivity throughout the college grounds. The food is good enough in the mess, and so are the canteens.

Faculty: Faculty members are well-educated, tutored, and communicate well in the class. They are solving all the doubts that students usually ask in the class. The exams are well put and test our actual knowledge. Not just the textbook knowledge so overall its well-structured curriculum. Teachers are well-trained, well-educated, and teach perfectly.

Absolutely dissatisfied with the faculty, the strict rules, and the facilities.

Placements: This year, an average number of fourth-year students have got job offers, and some have chosen to do MS or M.Tech from various colleges. Talking about internships, only 2-3 students get from the college, but we have to try hard and study for our future only. I think the highest package received till now is 46 LPA and the least is 3 LPA in the Computer Science course.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of my college is pretty good, as any type of people can live here. We also say that the food is good, but sometimes, the food is not good and we also miss our home food. The facilities are good, as we have a library, indoor games, coding space, and theatre over here.

Faculty: The teachers here are well-qualified, and some of the professors also have completed their Ph.D. degrees in their branch and course. Honestly, there are only very few of the teachers tell very clearly, and are understandable. The curriculum of the courses here is like we can say that it is very easy compared to the other engineering colleges.

Other: Actually, I am interested in Computer Science because I love to code and all other things. The thing that I wish to say to improve or make much better is to reduce the cost of hostels. PPTs should not be shown in all the classes. Talking about the fests, it is a very good time to spend over here as people from other colleges also come here to enjoy.

Good infrastructure and a good campus with lots of greenery and a focus on certification.

Placements: Nearly 60% of students were placed last year, as AI is rapidly doing all the work, we should work harder than ever before. JPMC, TCS, Infosys, Cognizant, and Capgemini are the top recruiters. SDE, Swe testers, and cloud are the top roles offered. Around 35%, 500 students got internships, which is hard.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure in our university is very good. We are top private institutions having a massive amount of green space in our college. Wi-Fi is there 24/7 on the campus and in the hostel. The central library contains around 1,50,000 books.

Faculty: We have a special mandate called global certification, which no other engineering college in the country has. Everyone should do 4 global certifications as part of their degree. If they do 4 only, they will get a degree certificate. Its exams can be very strict if you pay close attention to teachers lecture and write notes.

Other: The area where the college was located was very hot, so in summer, you need to be in an AC and you need to drink lots of water. We have 2 major fests in a year, Samyak and Surabi, which will be there for two days, and those are done very beautifully, so we can enjoy a lot there.
