Dissatisfied with some faculty members and satisfied with some.

Placements: 30% of people got placed in top recruiting companies. Companies like LNT and many other architecture firms in Bangalore come here. Thy share their thoughts which are useful. We attend alumni meetings in Google Meet and some other platforms.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities are good. The hostel food and infrastructure are not good. There is no proper electricity and circuit. We have the worst hostel rooms, materials, doors, windows, etc. So the mess quality and infrastructure can be increased. Regular maintenance of electricity and water dispensers can be maintained properly.

Faculty: Staff members are knowledgeable and share the most practical experience. Semester exams are easy but not up to the present scenario of the growth of industrial learning. So we fail to attain peer learning. It does not make students that much ready to face the future, so the course plans can be changed.

Other: I chose this course because of the batch count and the experienced teachers and placements provided.
