Review of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University.
Placements: 90% of students were placed. The lowest salary offered is 30000 per month and the highest salary offered is 80000 per month. The top companies for our course include the architectural and planning practices of well-known architects. The top roles include professor and senior architect.
Infrastructure: Labs, sufficient Wi-Fi, spacious classrooms, computer labs, etc. are provided. The hostel provides fine and good food facilities, with timely mess and light-night cafe service. We have a medical aid centre that offers first aid and also has a very good doctor facility.
Faculty: Highly qualified teachers are there. Good projects to train us for the future. The difficulty of the exams is moderate. It covers everything tough in the class. 37 marks out of 100 are passing marks. The students are made ready to face all the difficulties they will face during their jobs through their courses.
Other: I chose the college because it has good infrastructure and has a good ranking amongst the other colleges in India.

It is an amazing campus with excellent infrastructure.
Placements: Almost 80% of the students got placed in the top MNCs. The average salary package offered was somewhere around 8 to 15 LPA. The year I passed out, the top companies picking up students were Amazon, HP, BHEL, Flipkart, and many others. Many were placed in good positions and were placed worldwide.
Infrastructure: We had everything that would be required for the course, be it labs, department library as well as the central library. Classrooms were well spacious fitted with the latest projection equipment, and every class had a studio with a drawing board for each student. The hostel was the best place and truly was a home away from home. Hostels were no less than some luxury resorts.
Faculty: Teachers were well qualified and knowledgeable. Most of them were residing on the campus itself so making them more easily approachable and friendly. The course structure was framed aptly and was updated from time to time. Nothing was difficult if students paid attention to classes and some self-study. Exams can be easily passed with a good percentage if students attend the class regularly and follow the lecture properly.
Other: Campus life was the best. Describing it in the words won't do justice to the beauty of the campus. It was a 500-acre lush green campus in the laps of Aravali Range. It is well connected through air, rail, and road.

Really good infrastructure but please don't go here if you have no other option.
Placements: Most seniors got placements after finishing their bachelor's. They are either working under companies or under our professors. They do get paid well so it's a good thing. Plus they are good designers too and get awards as well for best thesis and all.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the university is very beautiful and peaceful. Lush greenery everywhere but there are a ton of monkeys who attack you if they see bags in your hand so it's risky. Hostels are not that good as well. At least in girls hostel, there are always a ton of monkeys that make our lives difficult.
Faculty: Faculty members are very much experienced. They help us with a lot of stuff and make us gain knowledge. Most of our exams are also helpful. They make us get more adapted at doing stuff. Apart from this, our seniors are an absolute headache. They make us do labour like unpaid internships.

The college life and education provided are great.
Placements: There are no placements for the architecture branch. You have to make your architectural design portfolio and then apply in various firms of your own choice. Most of the times, if the jurors get impressed with your portfolios, they will you as interns. Well-reputed people in the architecture sector of India are called for design juries. Many students are hired in various workshops organised by the college. The workshops like Bamboo workshop organised by National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad, gave good opportunities for the students to get into their ongoing projects in Katra, Jammu and Kashmir.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is great. This campus comes under top 25 beautiful campuses across the world. The campus is well maintained. We have smart classes, and attendance is maintained by ERP. The entire campus is Wi-Fi enabled. The weather is amazing, and the skies are awesome. The infrastructure is designed by famous architects by keeping in mind the students' interests. There are 7G labs, dance studios, and a state of the art auditorium. The college itself has many structural elements which are very attractive. Hostel facilities are good. New hostels are very lavish for students. Medical facilities are also available within the campus. Basketball courts are also available here, and the college also conducts a sports fest.
Faculty: We have experienced faculty members who completed their education from designated architectural colleges. They provide practical knowledge, and they also teach concepts to qualify in competitive exams. They also train the students for the GATE exam, and they conduct extra classes if needed. As the teachers live on the campus, you are always invited to ask your doubts at the nearby canteen or any place. The course curriculum can be amended by an MME (mentor-mentee meeting), in which the HOD talks with topper student, an average student and poor student regarding their performances in exams.
Other: Many events and interactive sessions are very common. College fests and Dj nights are organised here. Every small event is celebrated in the college with great zeal. Funding is done by the college for various competitions. Sports teams are also taken great care of.

Our college is a beautiful and wonderful place to study and spend your college life.
Placements: Placements in our college are good as Tata Consultancy, and other big companies come for placements. Many students got a minimum package of Rs. 30,000 per month while many students have achieved good posts at the starting of their career itself. SMVDU-TBIC allows you to focus on entrepreneurship which inspires students to do creative and innovative works in their field than earning money.
Infrastructure: Our college has a very beautiful and peaceful campus with an awesome view of Trikuta and Kailash mountains directly from the university. The holy mountain Vaishno Devi is directly visible from our college. The college possesses great architectural beauty with solar facilitated infrastructures. It has a mixed culture and various plants, and trees which keep the campus life alive.
Faculty: Faculty are supportive and always ready for your help. They also teach you various good things that are out of syllabus, and a learner cannot learn from anywhere else which is admirable. In every semester, feedbacks are taken which allow you to give your point of view about any faculty member whether it is positive or negative.
