Faculty: The teachers are very helpful and almost every professor holds a Ph.D. degree from highly reputed colleges and universities. The course curriculum is very relevant keeping in mind the industrial applications. The semester exams are held at the end of the semester which is approximately 5-5 months from the beginning of each semester. It is moderately hard.

Other: I chose this course in this college because I had good recommendations from the college alumni. I would not like any changes in the course. Multiple events are held frequently, almost every week. We at least have 2-3 fest every year. The campus is very beautiful.

The infrastructure and college life are average. But the disappointment comes in placements of MCA.

Placements: Almost 30-40% of students get placed every year. The placement training classes are regular and they make us learn very decently. Placements are started for the pre-final year. But the problem is the discrimination between MCA and B.Tech students. The priority is given to B.Tech.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of ITER, SOA is decent but the campus is very congested. Buildings are good. Classes are good. Some hostels are good and some are not so good. The food is decent. I don't think of home like food, but you can get decent food and hostel life.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and well-qualified, with some exceptions. The course curriculum does not make us industry-ready, but decent enough. Semester exams are moderate. The pass percentage is decent. The mid-semester is easy, but semesters are moderate.
