A perfect place to make a good career and a bright future.
Placements: 50 percent of students were placed in good companies with managerial posts. The recruiting companies were Nestle, Danone, PepsiCo, Verkaetc. The highest package was 40,000 per month and the lowest was 15,000 per month. Almost every student got the internship and worked as a quality manager, food inspector etc.
Infrastructure: The labs were well-equipped with all the modern equipment. The classrooms were spacious with good seating arrangements and air-conditioners. There was a parking lot, a cafe near the library, valendrome, tennis court, hockey and football ground, clock tower, hospital as well in the university.
Faculty: All the teachers were well qualified from foriegn universities. They had a good and in-depth knowledge of their subject. Their teaching skills were perfect. The course curriculum was designed according to the modern demands of the industry. It was very much relevant and helpful as well.
Other: I chose this course because it provides very good roles in the food industry. Hostel nights, youth fest, flower show, Kisan Mela etc. were organised every year.
