CIS means no job, freedom, and loss.
Placements: Around 30% of students are placed in the BCA course. The lowest package is Rs.15,000 per month, the average is Rs.25,000 per month, and the highest is 1 lakh per month. Companies like Amazon, Flipkart, BigBasket, Zomato, Tata, DSL, Reliance, and many more recruit BCA. Approximately 70% of students got internships from the BCA course in companies like ITC, Volvo, Amazon, Google, and SBI. The top roles are data analytics, cybersecurity, IT, robotics, and web development.
Infrastructure: The department provides Wi-Fi, but the speed is slow. The classrooms are okay, but no AC and the fans are very slow speed. The library is very bad, with no books available every time. There are no hostels provided for the BCA course, no canteen, no medical facility, and no sports or games.
Faculty: Teachers are not helpful, and their behavior is rough. The teaching quality of some teachers is very bad, and it does not make students industry-ready. The exams at the Center for Innovative Studies are very difficult, with a 70% pass percentage. They do not give us a study break before exams.
Other: I chose this course because the job facilities are much higher than in other courses. However, there is less hard work involved. The syllabus could be better, and some fieldwork should be arranged. There is only one scholarship, SVCMC. The college organizes small events, but there is no campus crowd, and the campus surroundings are like a forest area.

Our college is good. It is well placed and known college.
Placements: Roles like software engineer and data scientist are offered in our course. Students get placed in good companies like Wipro, Microsoft, etc. I suggest you need to be tentative towards the new seminar. In our course, there are almost 50 students.
Infrastructure: It is very neat and clean, so I got admitted here instead of going to Bangalore.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are very friendly. We easily get their point of learning and empathise us to read more. All the teachers are graduated. Their teaching quality is good enough.
Other: Our college organises a fest, but due to this lockdown, all these are postponed. I really like to choose this course, and I would not be able to go to another course. I have not learned programming before the 8th standard, and I want to learn more about it. I want to improve my programming skills.

In my opinion, you can take an admission in this college because it's not like any other colleges.
Placements: Many companies like Infosys come to offer placement opportunities and recruit the students from this college. Above 80 percent of the students are doing internship. Some catchy roles such as a data scientists are offered.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college is very good and is located between West Bengal forests, the environment is really soothing to study. All the labs are well placed and Wi-Fi facilities are available only for the seniors and not for 1st semester students.
Faculty: All the teachers are well qualified and graduated. Semester exams are a bit tough. Our course curriculum is relevant enough. If we have any doubts, teachers are ready to help us and clear all our doubts.
Other: I chose this course as I want to get in detail of programming language. Also, I didn't want to be in the crowd by choosing B.Tech. As we go to the fees of this college, it's quite decent as compared to other colleges. Surroundings are also very good with trees everywhere.
