Our college provides faculty members who encourage new ideas and develop the skills of students.

Placements: Companies that were on the list of placements might differ with the percentage of students. Students of the list might vary from the companies list. They also give a chance for the students who are already selected for the other companies.

Infrastructure: The quality of the food served varies from one hostel to another. The food court is a private one, so the taste of the food served is good and better. Cleanliness maintained here is very good. Students have access to the Wi-Fi facility for which every student is provided with a different password.

Faculty: Faculty members of the design course are well-groomed and trained. But some teachers are not well trained, while some became professors and got a diploma and masters certificate due to their explanation skills and creative skills. The course curriculum is relevant, and students are almost ready for the industry.

Other: Our university doesn't focus on earning money, and it is worth it. I chose this course because I want to become an architect.
