Master of Computer Applications (MCA) - Batch of 2024
Offered by Kristu Jyoti College of Management and Technology

Overall, the best college for the MCA course.
Placements: At MCA, I presently teach approximately 85 pupils. The greatest package is 25 LPA, and the lowest is 10 LPA. Internship opportunities are available to all students in our branch. Top job titles include Software Developer and Data Scientist. Top firms include HCL, Oracle, and Tech Mahindra.
Infrastructure: Our college provides facilities such as Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and a library. All facilities are well-organised. Wi-Fi connection is good. Smart classrooms feature individual chairs and desks. In addition, there are projectors connected to computers in the classroom. Air conditioning is also available.
Faculty: The instructors are exceptionally qualified and knowledgeable. Their teaching standards are high. The curriculum is incredibly current and frequently revised to ensure that students are job-ready. Someone familiar with the curriculum and syllabus can easily supervise exams throughout the semester. The pass rate is approximately 85%.

Masters of Business Administration (MBA) - Batch of 2023

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money
Decent college with good facilities, but located in a remote area.
Placements: Campus placements are conducted every year mainly for final-year students and sometimes for third-year students as well. However, students must clear all subjects on time to be eligible. Those with backlogs usually cannot sit for placements. Overall, placement opportunities are decent, but students must be serious about academics.
Infrastructure: The college has a decent campus environment, which helps in overall learning. The library and laboratories are well-equipped and useful for students. There is also a stationery store and a printing press on campus, where most employees are different-able, which is a really good initiative by the college. However, the college is located in a remote area, which makes travelling difficult.
Faculty: Each subject has separate faculty members. Some Maths teachers and lab instructors are very strict, which creates pressure on students, but other teachers are very supportive and motivating. The curriculum is standard, and exams are conducted properly, though practical sessions sometimes become noisy due to non-teaching staff.
Other: One drawback of the college is its remote location, which makes daily travel difficult for many students. Other than that, the college environment is good and supports both academics and personal growth.

Review of ILAHIA College of Engineering and Technology. 
Placements: The guarantees and assurances provided to achieve placements were not met for half of the students. The least package stood at 2.42 LPA and increased based on individual skills. Compared to other colleges, our college lagged significantly in recruitment.
Infrastructure: The college always wanted to be glorified among others. Facilities available were average, and the college hid most of the truth during advertising. The college spent much of its money lavishly on promoting itself rather than building the necessary facilities.
Faculty: Professors always provoked students with their unnecessary activities and actions. Even the smallest movements of students were noticed by the professors. The academic results created hectic competition among the students from all disciplines.

Placements: 85% of our college students have been accepted into the current second year. The lowest salary offer in our programme is 6 LPA, and the highest is 25 LPA.

The food supplied during the riots was nice, although it might be better. The hotels and dispensaries are satisfactory. Medical facilities are also available.
Faculty: Along with the curriculum, technical advising and networking help students keep up with the newest M.Com. Advancements. Our offices are staffed with highly experienced and technically qualified individuals from different public colleges. The semester exam is easy, and the pass rate is around 70%.
