Actually satisfied because of some faculty, good placements in 2024, and good infrastructure.

College for learning and opportunities.

Faculty: Faculty was well-educated and provided a top-notch learning experience for them. They were too friendly with us to clear all our doubts. Students will have a good experience to get into the industry after completion of college. The semester exams were too easy if we focus on 3 units per exam.

Decent academics, excellent labs, but can improve on campus life and events.

Faculty: The faculty members are highly qualified, with most holding M.E. /M. Tech degrees and several with PhDs. Teachers are very supportive and approachable, both inside and outside the classroom. The curriculum is regularly updated based on AICTE and university guidelines. Semester exams are moderately difficult. They test both conceptual understanding and problem-solving ability. Students who attend classes regularly and practice the previous year's questions can easily pass.
