The food was average. The mess is contract-based, every year, it changes. Inside, there is a hostel committee and a campus committee, which conduct programmes, etc. There is a small ground in the hostel for throwball, cricket, football, etc.
    Faculty: The teachers are well-qualified and knowledgeable. The teachers are so friendly. Everything depends on the teacher's mood and the students' behavior. The syllabus now updated the teachers always try to put something new for students to teach. Everything is helpful, but something is outdated even though it is good.

    Nice college, I liked it and a little bit disappointed.
    Placements: Our institute had a placement cell. If you had any doubts about placement, you could also visit the placement cell. From the second year onwards, placement cell will train you for placement. Top companies like Accenture, Cognizant, etc., often come to our institute. The highest package was 25 LPA, and the lowest package was around 5 LPA.
    Infrastructure: We had separate blocks for different courses and departments. We had 4 seminar halls, an auditorium, conference hall, and 3 libraries. There were bus facilities for students, canteen, bookshop, and emergency room. There were around 20-30 security members. I chose the park at MITS Chitoor near NPN block. Our institute had a library in NPN block, which was open 24X&. A class had a capacity of 80 students.
    Faculty: Teachers were skilled and experienced. Very few of them were Ph.D. holders. They often use blackboard and PPT. They were always available for the students. For every 10-15 students, one faculty member was available although our classes run until 5.00 PM. Faculty members were available till 6.00 PM. Many faculty members were from other states who were highly qualified and hold M.Tech or Ph.D. Very few faculty members were very friendly and approachable.
    Other: No one says that we were good in the company, every senior was sad and upset.

    Absolutely satisfied with facilities and infrastructure.
    Placements: A good percentage of students got placed in the M.Sc. Mathematics course because it was a popular course at the college. Some local companies came to offer placements and job opportunities to the students. They also provided good packages, around 10 to 15 LPA.
    Infrastructure: The department facilities and infrastructure were superb because most needed facilities were provided to students. Also, if anyone had a personal choice for food, they could get it prepared in the canteen, which was a good point. The food was also very hygienic and clean.
    Faculty: Teachers were knowledgeable and highly qualified in their subjects. They also provided daily practice question papers because I was in the Mathematics course. The course curriculum was ready and relevant to the industry. The exams were not very tough. I scored a 9 CGPA in the semester exams.
    Other: The campus was good, but sometimes there was too much crowd, which made it uncomfortable.

Wi-Fi is available, but the speed is not good. The hostel is provided for everyone the facilities are good but the food quality is not good.

The working women's hostel and women's hostel for SC/ST students were situated near the institution.

    PU‑CET (UG) has different papers for different subjects. Applicants must choose subjects based on the course they want. Each subject is a separate MCQ paper with its own marks. Your overall score is the total of the papers you attempt.
