Labs are kept up nicely. On campus, we have medical facilities. On campus, we have a cafeteria that serves delicious meals. Our sports cell are in operation. Hostel rooms are nice. During my time here, I have not encountered any infrastructure-related issues.

Foundation will be very strong.
Placements: The internship opportunities are good, and few of the companies do provide pre-placement opportunities, which is good. Other than that, for final placement, we have a good number of companies visiting, with an average salary of around 3 lacs per annum.
Infrastructure: The course infrastructure is normal with basic classrooms; there is a computer laboratory, and we have student rooms and libraries that have been well stocked with all offline and online resources. The hostel is good and provides you with all kinds of basic amenities, and the mess facilities have been decent, and few medical aid facilities are there.
Faculty: The faculty members are good and knowledgeable, and the teaching quality is a blend of practical knowledge and theoretical core foundation building focus. The semester exams have like a 90% passing rate and are mostly not difficult to pass. The curriculum is good and makes you job-ready.

Academic Foundation is Core Focus.
Placements: It is satisfactory, though around 60% of the batch was able to secure both an internship and placement. However, internship opportunities were mostly unpaid or offered just ₹5,000 per month. Highest package offered was ₹5 LPA, with an average of around ₹2 LPA. Top roles offered included policy analyst, researcher, and consultant.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is overall okay. I did not spend much time on campus, but the hostel was comfortable. Classrooms were well-built, and there was a library and medical assistance available. The college had a sports ground, and both canteen and mess food were acceptable.
Faculty: The exams are not very difficult and are taken online. The passing rate is above 95%. The teachers are good, and the curriculum is designed to include project work that builds practical exposure and knowledge alongside classroom training.

Opportunities Limited but Present
