There is a good infrastructure for education.

Placements: Roles like application development associate, technical trainee and support engineer are offered in our college. Many companies visit here and recruit students as per their requirement. Students are trained well for placements so that they can easily qualify in interviews.

Infrastructure: This college provides the best quality education, along with proper classrooms, practical labs and library. Hostel facilities are good to stay, and there is every facility in the hostel. The hostel is nearer to the transportation location for hostellers to travel.

Faculty: Teachers here are good at their knowledge as they are capable of making their teaching understandable to students at a good level. They almost make students industry-ready, and all the students need to do is they should follow the instructions and teaching of the faculty members.

Other: Nowadays, we are using everything in a digitalised way and making everything automatic to make our work effortless. We are making our lives easier and grow faster in technology to achieve more advanced versions of our lives. I wish that our college should make our course more practical rather than just making us read from books and write on papers whatever we learnt. Our college tries its best to organise fests and other activities what the college can do. We enjoy fests and other activities.

Best place for entertainment.

Placements: There was no campus interview but we had some off campus. We need to struggle a lot to get placement. You have to try your own to get your desired job. Mechanical Engineers are the worst Batch who gets only Rs8,000 salary. So in 3rd year concentrate on Design software to get placement.

Infrastructure: Our University was wide enough and had a large warandha. Good environment and nice location to reach. Classroom are neat and clean. We had played a lot. Food quality is not good.
