The college has good infrastructure and allows us to explore.
Placements: In our college, we studied well every year, but when the time of placement came, the college staff and administration didn't have anybody for placement. Like in every college, they have a society for placement. Sometimes students get packages through their own hard work. We don't even get internships in this college.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure in our college was awesome, like we can say that we had smartboards, air conditioning in classrooms and a well-maintained software room. Systems were also of the very best quality. They were new, only a few months old. The quality of food in the canteen was also, I think, good, not too good but good.
Faculty: Teachers were very helpful to us, but when it came to the time of the practical, they didn't help us. Semester exams were not too difficult. If you were studying the whole year, then you would easily qualify for the semester. I think all the students passed. Teachers were knowledgeable and gave us advice for our future.
Other: A crowd of college students made us relevant to take admission and improve our skills. Events are also conducted by the college.

Overall, a good college but poor placements.
Placements: There are no campus placement opportunities. The college does not provide placements for students. Students should join for the degree and the campus environment. If students want placement opportunities and jobs, they should consider another college. If they only want a degree, they can go for it.
Infrastructure: The hostel is also good. Sports facilities are also available. Overall, everything is good in the college.
Faculty: Teachers are very good and friendly. They provide full support to students. Teachers give proper guidance and prepare students well for exams. They give their 100% for good results. Students can learn a lot from the college teachers and faculty members.

I am satisfied with the faculty and the infrastructure, but I am not satisfied about the placements.
Placements: I am a BCA 1st year student studying in Sree Siddaganga College of Arts, Science, and Commerce. There are up to 60 students in BCA 1st year. There are no placement companies in our college. I have no idea about that. Artificial intelligence and database are the roles offered to the course.
Infrastructure: Our college has up to 30 classrooms and 3 computer labs, and a library which has all the books, textbooks, notes, and question papers of all the courses. It has a large space where students can sit and study. Students can enter these details and can take up the books they need. The classrooms are quite large, and one class has up to 60 students.
Faculty: The teachers in Sree Siddaganga College of Arts, Science, and Commerce are all qualified, but some of them are not knowledgeable. The teaching cannot be understood. This course curriculum is relevant to the job. I think it doesn't make the students ready for jobs. Other classes can help. Semester exams were easy if we study hard. It is not that difficult to learn. The passing percentage is 35 percent.
Other: I chose this course to gain more knowledge about computers and to work in software companies.
