Absolutely satisfied because of the faculty and good placements.
Placements: Out of 60, there are 21 students in my class, with 2 late-entry students. For me, in my first year 71000 and 2nd year 3rd year 60000 and 4 th year 61000. The top companies provided are Infosys, Tech Mahindra, and Tata. Now I'm in my third year, and only 4,5 students are going to the internship, which was at NIT Calicut.
Infrastructure: There will be a lot of facilities in this college, including Wi-Fi connections, labs, classrooms, and libraries. Everything will not be much good, but it's not an issue. Some departments have the same labs for experiments. Actually, I'm not living in a hostel. I'm a day scholar, and one of my friends said the hostel facility is not bad, but there is a huge fee.
Faculty: Teaching quality is average. 1,2 faculty members are good at teaching, and they know how to convey the topics and how they can be easier. All teachers are helpful, and they will clear all of your doubts. Semester exams are not very difficult. We can easily crack it. Only by going through the previous year's question paper. Some of the students do not get the idea to crack it. That's the only problem.
