Very good. Actually, I have no problem in placement, studies, or other activities.

Placements: Very good placement rate, 97 percent. The highest package is 31 LPA, the average is 12 LPA, and the lowest is 9 LPA. Many companies come, and then there is an interview. Students study together, which benefits everyone. In fact, most of the students get an internship. Civil is a very good branch, so come to this college for placement.
