This is the best College for M.A. in Economics Course.
Placements: In this college, 85–90% of students get placements and have got good jobs too, especially those who get 95% marks. Positive growth is also facilitated by trade outcome. Salaries vary, with an average of 15 LPA and a minimum of 2 LPA, depending on their score. Top recruiters are DE Shaw, Goldman Sachs, RBI, etc. The top jobs are in economics, financial analyst, and so on.
Infrastructure: Although they are present, the infrastructure and facilities are not very well-renovated, it is pleasant to stay at the hostel, the food in the mess is not good, however, the windows in the room are only accessible by one person, so the other person cannot use them. I have to take more nutrients to stay alive. Oil is dipped on the food. Crispy vegetables are fried.
Faculty: Teachers help. They are very supportive of the student seeking, but sometimes teachers in some departments are too aggressive with their students and unnecessarily unleash their anger on them. Otherwise, on the teaching side, they are good. Semester exams are not too easy, and the pass rate is over 70%.

A decent college for admission.
Placements: Our college makes it very easy for students to get placed. Ihe third or fourth year depending on their talents, by offering placement training as early as the second year. Around 60% of CSE students were placed last year. Prominent hiring firms such as Amazon, Zoho, and numerous others are attending drives. Over 55% of students have completed internships at organisations such as Turning and Rapid Data Technologies, etc. Data analyst, app developer, SDE, and other roles are available. The maximum package offered is 10 LPA. Our training offers a minimal package of 7 LPA and an average package of 3 LPA.
Infrastructure: The department appears to be in good shape compared to other departments. However, laboratories have antiquated equipment. Only named Wi-Fi is available, and KCE Wi-Fi is available if you only have a laptop. The cuisine is mediocre at best, and there haven't been any complaints about the hostel yet. There aren't any medical facilities on campus.
Faculty: All faculty members just concentrate on placement drives. They are a little rude. Some employees fail to provide adequate instruction, which results in semester-long arrears. Due to the pressure to finish a semester in two months, including tests, the percentage of exams this semester is 44%.
