    Our college has a good infrastructure, and it is good for day scholars.
    Placements: Placements are very rare at our college, especially in our course. Only 1-2% of the students got placed on their own by applying to different companies. There was no top recruiting company. Around 30% of the students got internships from our course in web designing and other courses.
    Infrastructure: Campus is highly demarcated with labs, a Wi-Fi system, and good infrastructure. For the day scholars, a bus facility is available. The sports ground was very good having synthetic mats. On-campus, there is a canteen providing hygienic food. The hostel building is very nice and had facilities like air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned rooms.
    Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and highly skilled in their respective particular fields. The course is very relevant, and in the last semester, students have to perform internships with companies or different institutes. Semesters are not much difficult.
    Other: I opted for this course to become a web designer and software developer. The artificial intelligence paper was my favorite and I learned a lot. Teachers should focus on practical work that I wish would be better. From time to time, fest and seminars are organised by campus.

    Faculty members of the college are friendly, but the college management is not good.
    Placements: Placements in our college are good. A lot of students got placed through campus placement drives. Companies visit the campus for recruitment in the short term, but the salary packages offered by them are very low. Companies like Amazon, Infosys, and Tech Mahindra, etc., visited for the campus placements. The average stipend offered by the companies during the internship is Rs. 8,000.
    Infrastructure: There are two playgrounds available on the campus. Various types of games are played on campus like cricket, volleyball, and basketball. The college provides free Wi-Fi facility. There are 2 main libraries available on the campus. Classrooms are neat and clean. The college offers a very calm environment. The campus is surrounded by trees to provide a peaceful and green environment for students. There are three hostels for boys and one for the girls. The hostel rooms are in good condition.
    Faculty: Faculty members of the college are friendly. They are helpful. They provide help and support in the best way. The teaching is done either on board or in the labs with the help of a projector. The management of the college is not good. They force students to take part in different things even though it is not required for students. They add additional charges in fees for different necessary things. If any student doesn't pay those extra charges, they charge fine over it.
    Other: The management of the college organises two main fests. The campus surroundings are good here. It is located approximately 45 km away from Chandigarh city.

    Absolutely dissatisfied because of placements.
    Placements: The placements are very disappointing for the students. Only 3 out of 120 students were placed. Only two or three companies visited the college for the placement drive. The highest salary is offered by Infosys, which is 3.25 LPA. They offered software engineer role. No one got internships from the college. There is no placement cell for MCA department. The placement cell is only for the B.Tech students.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is good. The library has enough old edition books, but the new edition books are not available at all. The classrooms and labs are good. The quality of food available in the canteen is good. The hostel rooms are also good. I didn't face any issues regarding the infrastructure.
    Faculty: The teachers are very helpful and kind-hearted. They are well-qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good, but they just read the powerpoint presentation. Powerpoint presentation method is used to teach the students. I didn't get the industry exposure. The course is useful. They provide theoretical knowledge more than the practical knowledge.
    Other: Events are awesome, and the food is good. The campus crowd is tedious. Surroundings are not good, and the scholarship provided is good.

    Placements: I had a great experience with the department of computer science (Punjabi University Patiala). I was placed in a well-known company after completion of masters in computer science. The best and experienced staff members are there to provide you best education.

All the books are available in the library for students. The department is near UCOE, and a shopping complex is available in the basement. The food provided there is of good quality.
