Good academics, helpful faculty, and well-equipped campus facilities.
Placements: Around 75 percent of students in our course got successfully placed. The highest package offered is 8 LPA, the lowest is 2.5 LPA, and the average is about 4.5 LPA. Top recruiters include TCS, Wipro, Biocon, and Syngene. Nearly 60 percent of students secured internships in companies like Cipla, Zydus, and local research labs. Common roles offered included research assistant, quality control, and data analysis, providing good industry exposure.
Infrastructure: Our department has well-equipped laboratories, smart classrooms, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a well-stocked library, making learning convenient and effective. The hostel provides basic but clean rooms, while the mess serves hygienic food. Medical facilities are available on campus and students have access to sports grounds and indoor games for physical activities. The infrastructure supports both academic and extracurricular growth.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful, well-qualified, and explained concepts clearly, which made the overall teaching quality good. The curriculum is relevant and includes practical components that help students become industry-ready. Semester exams are moderately difficult but with regular study. They are manageable and the pass percentage is generally high around 85-90 percent.
Other: I chose it for its interest, good labs, and faculty. Needs more industry exposure and a lively campus. I'm interested in the field, good teaching, want better practicals, fun events, and a crowd. Good subject fit, helpful staff, improve facilities, active fests, and campus life.

I really like it. Good campus.
Placements: The college has a very bad placement cell. They do not provide us with good placements at all. I expect too much from the placement, but I realised the sad reality. There is no active placement cell, but some departments have one. Their own placement cell. Its very good.
Infrastructure: Hostel is very good. We can easily take admission, and there are no hidden rules and regulations. We can move without any restrictions. The mess food is also good. We do not need to go outside for good food. There is also good food and sports there. We have a discount there.
Faculty: There are good teachers with high qualifications. We have the opportunity to study below them. We can always ask their opinion on any topic. They are all Ph.D. holders. It helps us to prepare our final year project. The place is full of qualified teachers.
Other: Good campus with lots of information.

It's a satisfying campus, I really love it.
Placements: Very poor placement cell. They don't provide placement. If we want to get a job, we need to search for it. They will only conduct a programme in a year. Total waste is the placement cell. Don't expect too much from it. I don't have any hope for the placement cell working.
Infrastructure: Good infrastructure here. We have a library and a whole learning space. We can use it 24 hours a day. The lab facilities are very poor. My department has no lab facilities. So we are missing projects because of a lack of laboratories. We can travel 24 hours on campus without restrictions.
Faculty: Good for studying. We can use their knowledge for our projects. Teachers are highly qualified, and we can ask them questions. But my course has some issues, but okay. We have no PSC inclusion. We have some trouble because we are the 2nd batch of this course.
Other: A good campus.

Absolutely satisfied with the college.
Placements: The college has very bad placement facilities. The university offers placement, but the amount is very low. Some of the departments have a special placement cell. They are working actively. They provide good placement for their students. MBA is a good example of placements.
Infrastructure: There is a good hostel facility and bathrooms. We can live easily in hostels. The students have the esteem power. We can do whatever we want. There are 4 shared rooms, 2 shared rooms, and single rooms. They provide it based on distance. There are 1000 people in facilities available.
Faculty: The course curriculum makes the students industry-ready and capable for the job market. Semester exams are very easy to score higher marks in. There is a good infrastructure for studying. Teachers are well qualified with Ph.D. and a PDF. We can use their knowledge for our projects and research.
Other: Good campus for students.

One of the best campuses to study, but the department needs improvement.
Placements: As an integrated course, it is an interesting and easy course to do, but when it comes to placement, I am still doubtful about it as we are the 2nd batch and we have to start our department-level placement cell from scratch. Some other courses, like MBA, have a high chance of getting placed.

Faculty: As a blooming department, we don't have permanent faculty members and all of them are working on contract for a year or so. Unlike most other development studies courses, we have more economics to study. I think this will be the easiest semester exam to pass, and the pass percentage will be more than 95%.
Other: I felt this course was interesting as it covers all of social Science through various semesters. It would be better if we get permanent staff as it can improve our department a lot. When it comes to events, various departments and our students' union conduct interesting programs throughout the year.

Satisfied with the infrastructure and dissatisfied with the placement.
Placements: Poor placement, and we can't trust the placement system. They don't make us employed. If we need to, we can find jobs in the market. They only make us able in the job market. Some of the departments, like the MBA, are providing placement. It's also rare, but comparatively good.
