My review about this college.
Placements: We can apply for the scholarship, but the college doesn't provide scholarships for students. We have to apply online through NSP. There is a department of placement. They provide great opportunities to the students. There are internships for the students to grow. They also provide jobs and placements for their students. Many firms come and recruit students. Many students take part in the placement program and enhance their skills. This puts the college at a high rank, and as a result, the college recruits only qualified students.
Infrastructure: It’s scholar-friendly and the environment is good. Well, it does promote a well-equipped, high-quality syllabus. There should be better experienced mentors. The frequency is good, and the difficulty level is quite high. Hostel rooms are good; for UG, rooms have to be shared, but for PG, three people stay in one room. Meal quality is vegetarian, no meat is served, and meals are provided three times a day. For hostel registration, you have to be advanced UG-3800.
Faculty: The faculty is super awesome and very much dedicated. Some of the teachers make you love the subject they teach. They are perfectly trained in their respective lines. They did their job really well. It’s an awesome college regarding faculty members. The principal was friendly, and so was his assistant. The faculty members sitting in offices, be it the clerks or whosoever were very helpful. The exams, yes, were very strict. We had two to three exams a year, and questions were set from every nook and corner of the syllabus.
