    Good infrastructure and facilities but lacks in placement.
    Placements: 25% of students got placed with the highest salary of 8lakh per annum, average of 3.75 Lacs per annum and the lowest salary of 2lakh per annum. Main top recruiting companies are TCS, Infosys, CTS. 6 students got internship in infosys and 1 got internship in CTS.
    Infrastructure: The department contains 3 computer labs with Wi-Fi facilites all around the campus. Library has 1000+ books. The quality of food is average. Sports meet, cultural, tech fest are conducted annually which is called as daksh, kurusastra. The campus contains well furnished hostel inside campus. But the hostel facilities are provided only for the students who come from other states. Students from Tamil Nadu are given least priority for providing hostel rooms.
    Faculty: Teachers are friendly and supportive. Some of the professor have completed Ph.D. The quality of teaching is good but it is less when compared to the quality of teaching for engineers. The focuses on the basic programming skills and languages. It helps to understand the basics when we enter industry.
    Other: I wish the course should have more exposure to industrial concepts.

The company that had visited Zoho, TCS, etc. There is no internship offered for MCA candidates. Placement cell is available in sastra and it is very useful.

    My review about this college.
    Placements: One of the best colleges in providing placements. The opportunities for placements always knock on your door during the final year 100%. Placements were done here for the students who cleared the minimum criteria required to sit on the campus placements. Amazon, Microsoft, Lister, Wipro, HCL, etc., were the top recruiters. Average package was Rs 3 LPA for freshers, and it increases according to experience. The highest package was 20 LPA. According to grade points, placement could be held. More grade points got first priority. Students were allowed to sit for interviews.
    Infrastructure: The course was structured in a way that you first understand the basics and then move to advanced. All courses had the same pattern college most experienced staff and more practical was done so it's best institution. Students were provided with a choice of 5 hostels to choose from with rooms in single, 2 in 1 room selection is first come first served. Hostel rent charges were minimal, and so were the mess charges. Food was strictly vegetarian, and the student had to step out of the university for non-vegetarian food.
    Faculty: Faculty members were pretty good and experienced. Most of the faculty members will have the minimum degree of masters and other few will have Ph.D. under there belt and had published papers in reputed journals. Some faculty members who were doing Ph.D. in our college will take some guest lectures in our class and share the experience. 3 internals in one semester, and best 2 were taken into account as your final internal. The internal constitutes 50% of your marks and rest 50% is the final semester marks internal was for 20 marks and external 70.
