The college has good infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: A few of them were placed because there is a smaller mass of people in economics. That's one of the reasons. I am not sure about the package, but I can say a decent amount. In different courses, students got internships and even placements. Range and ICICI are the recruiting companies. HR and research analyst are the common roles.
Infrastructure: The library is the main facility, which is helpful for the students. Wi-Fi facility is available for both students and faculty members. There are several messes and canteens available for different houses. A gymnasium is available for hostel students. Ground available for all the students. University sports games are held among different houses.
Faculty: Teachers are really helpful and skilled in their spheres of knowledge. The quality of teaching is awesome. Levels of semester exams are good. The pass percentage was the same as 33%, and there are some exceptions. There are extra technical subjects there for extra skills.
Other: I selected this course because it provides several opportunities in all spheres of life, whether it is the government or the private sector. Specifically for the banking sector. It also provides great exposure to the private sector.

College is surrounded by a heaven.
Placements: The placement is average in this university, generally ranging between 5 to 6 LPA as the average salary. They bring good companies like Orange, Amazon, and TCS for student recruitment. They also provide opportunities for students to attend off-campus placements.
Infrastructure: The college facilities are very good and well-provided. It also has a good mess facility. The campus spans 450 acres with lush greenery and is surrounded by the beautiful Trikuta mountain ranges, which enhance the beauty of the campus and its surroundings.
Faculty: Faculty members are nice, but most of them are rude in nature. This makes students hesitate to approach them, which is why they can’t fully benefit from their knowledge. But, not all faculty members are like this, many of them are kind and share their knowledge completely with students.

College surrounded by trikuta hills.
Placements: TCS, Wipro, L&T, and other companies visited my college every year. The highest package was 12 LPA, and the lowest package was 4 LPA. If someone wanted to do internships our college also provided internships to students. Students need to maintain CGPA.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure was good. College provided high-speed internet connectivity and smart classes. There was a big library. Classrooms were well organized and equipped with CCTV cameras. Hostel infrastructure was good. But hostel food was not that good. There was a huge sports ground also.
Faculty: Highly qualified teachers were there. Good projects to train our future. Difficulty of the exam was moderate. It covered everything tough in class. 36 marks out of 100 were passing marks. The students were made ready to face all the difficulties, they will face during their jobs through courses.

In summary, I can say that our college is not as good as IITs but still a good choice for students.
Placements: Placements are good for our branch compared to other branches in our college. About 60% to 70% of students got placed last year. The highest package was around 18 LPA and the average package was around 7 LPA-8 LPA. There are several companies in which the students got placed such as Larsen & Toubro, Airtel, Jio, Nvidea, etc. There are also various internship programs for college students in various companies.
Infrastructure: There are good facilities and infrastructure in our labs and classrooms, all the appliances are as good as new. Books availability is also good enough in library. Hostel is good but bathroom conditions are so bad. Rooms are clean and we get one single bed with one table and chair along with an almirah.
Faculty: Faculty members are excellent because they are helpful as well as supportive. Teachers are well-qualified as well as knowledgeable and deliver good quality teaching. Course curriculum is relevant and knowledgeable. Semester exams are not much difficult but not that easy. The difficulty level of exams is moderate. We need to score 36% to pass a subject.
Other: I chose B.Tech in electronics and communication engineering because in this college the highest placing branch is ECE. My interest in this branch is very good.
