Satisfactory but not very good.
Placements: In the previous year mostly everyone is placed but not in very good company. It is only TCS and all and the salary is below average. Even though they did not get placed in Accenture and all the Big 4 companies and the placement cell does not helps alot in reality.
Infrastructure: The facilities are good. The classrooms are clean and even the library has a lot of books to learn from. The canteen also provides good food, and it is hygienic. The medical facilities are also good. We also have a sports turf so these facilities in my opinion, are satisfactory.
Faculty: Teachers are quite qualified and even helpful. They try their best to help us with the studies and projects. The examination level is medium. It totally depends on the course that you are pursuing but mostly its not very hard. The questions are kind of easy.
Other: The events are quite good. They conduct a lot of events in every field, so thats a plus point if you are into events.

Average infrastructure, good faculty and the same old tier 3 placement records.
Placements: 70 percent students are placed and most are hired by mass hiring companies like TCS, Infosys, Cognizant etc. The highest package depends on the individual and it is due to off campus placement. 50 to 60 percent of students usually get internships during the course. In the end, it all comes down to your abilities.
Infrastructure: Labs, classrooms and library are pretty nice. Labs are well equipped. Classrooms are spacious with all classes having functioning lights and fans. Some are air conditioned not all. I am not a big fan of the female washrooms. The college is in a bad location and so it is always water logged and there. Too much convenience while traveling.
Faculty: Most of the teachers are nice, helpful and qualified. You might not vibe with everyones teaching style, and thats absolutely okay. Overall they are supportive and approachable. I am in my first year first semester, so I cannot really say much about the course curriculum yet. I also have not appeared for any semester exams, but I have heard they are okay and passable. if you study properly before the exams.
Other: Seniors are nice and welcoming and the faculty is extremely sweet.

A balanced review of academics, placements and campus life.
Placements: Around 30-40 percent students got placed in my course. The highest package was 9 LPA, the lowest package was 3 LPA, and the average is 3.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies are TCS, Infosys, Accenture, and so many small companies. There is no facility of internship provided by college; if you want to do an internship, you have to do it on your own as there is no help provided by the college.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure provided by our college is adequate and functional, supporting both academic and practical activities. The campus is Wi-Fi enabled and the library is well maintained. Hostel is provided for girls only, there is no facility for boys’ hostel, and food quality is average.
Faculty: The teachers in our department are well qualified and knowledgeable. Most faculty members hold postgraduate degrees, and some also have Ph.D. qualifications. The course curriculum is relevant and well structured, covering both theoretical foundation and practical application.
Other: I chose this course because of its strong career opportunities, industry relevance, and future growth. The course offers a good balance of theoretical and practical knowledge, especially in technology. The college organizes annual cultural and technical fests.
