Infrastructure: Here we have many departments in our college, for each department we have good equipment and machines to learn the subject,and research. Coming to the library, we've a huge collection of books for many purposes, like different entrance exams, concepts belonging to a particular department. The facilities are quite good. For girls, it is a good college in terms of safety. Most of the things are available in the college itself.

Faculty: We have a very good faculty who are very experienced with research and teaching in many ways. They interact with students and help them to learn in a new way, through the approach to the problems. Here we have mentor meetings with every student to know their problems. From the 2nd year, we'll get into core subjects and learn them according to the needs of a placement point of view. Here, semester exams are a bit hard, but I can manage them well with a good percentage.

Other: I'm from the IT department, as it is a growing field nowadays with competition, so I chose it. The fests, events are good. We have 3 main fests in even semesters, so we can participate in them. We have different clubs for every activity so that we can improve ourselves and interact with many people, and have certificates that are useful in placements. We will conduct workshops of different types and learn about new things.
