Minimum criteria for Stream 1: IPE + JEE - 975 above IPE and 35,000 below JEE rank

Stream 2: 985 above IPE score.

Overall, Highly satisfied.

Placements: Not many core companies for this stream had visited, hence the placements in core companies were pretty weak. However overall placement by the University has always been satisfactory. Internships were not offered for all streams. The companies that visited offered pretty decent job.

Infrastructure: Importance has been given to the infrastructure of the college. All sophisticated facilities are available for the students. Full usage of the infrastructure has been facilitated during the course of the study, providing complete exposure to the students.
