I am satisfied with this institute in terms of atmosphere, environment, teachers and infrastructure.
Placements: There are a total of 16 students, of which only 6 students got placed. The highest salary package offered was 6 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered was 3 LPA. About 2 students went for an internship at Cummins. All placed students got a job in the non-technical field. Top recruiting companies are General Electric, L&T Construction, etc.
Infrastructure: High-class lab facilities are available in this institute. The refrigeration and air-conditioning lab is the biggest one. There are well-maintained classrooms in which projector facilities are available. Total 10 hostels are available in this institute, and all are well-maintained.
Faculty: Top faculty members are very helpful. All faculty members of this institute are highly qualified, and all are PhD holders from top IITs. I think some subjects are irrelevant, which are not beneficial. The teaching quality is good. Teachers gave assignment which is good for students.
Other: Regularly events and fests are conducted.
