College is good if it takes the place of 4 to 5LPA gives a good roi and a life away from the city.
Placements: 50 to 60 percent of students in my department. The average salary offered is 4 to 5LPA. The top recruiters are Infosys Accenture, LTIMINDTREE Capgemini etc. Students can apply for government internships and internships given by the college. Most of the companies are coming here to tech based and have a good opportunity to get placed in core jobs because many core industries are available in the Haldia town.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the college is nearly average with all labs with AC but majority of lecture classes have no AC facility and there is no Wi-Fi on the campus except for the jionet which has a 34mb limit. In terms of hostels hostels are allotted only to first year students and remaining year students can opt for nearby PG or flat. Hostel infrastructure is okay with average food quality and repetitive food.
Faculty: Faculty of this college is good. The majority of faculty members are M.Tech holders and a few are Ph.D. holders. The course curriculum is just relevant but not more. Semester exam is going at a medium level and the passing percentage is high.
Other: I prefer this course for more placement opportunities as the IT industry is more relevant in today's world. There are no fest after 2023. There are some NSS activities going on all year. There are many workshops done by the different clubs which are mainly paid workshops.
