Not met the expectations I thought before joining this college.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure of this college is quite poor and unsatisfactory. Classrooms are not big, non-AC, and the ceiling of the college looks to be dangerous. IT students expect good infrastructure for themselves including labs, computers, faculty, and many more.

Good college with a good crowd.

Infrastructure: A small gym was available. It was good for beginners, and there was a carrom room. Canteen food was good for the price, budget-friendly with a good variety. There was no Wi-Fi and no smart boards in most classes. The turf was huge and the biggest facility of the college. Sports teams and equipment were good. It was great to play sports with friends.

I like everything about college.

Infrastructure: College has all kinds of facilities, like high-speed Wi-Fi, labs, AC classrooms, a 3-floor library with computers for research, and a canteen on the 3rd floor. College also has 2 meeting halls where we hold events, or sometimes some entrepreneur come to give information about their company and how they reach there.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good, with clean classrooms, smartboards, projectors, and podiums in each classroom. Centralized AC is provided. For female hygiene, a bin for pads is provided. Libraries and computer labs are also available. I did not opt for the hostel facility, but my friend stayed there. The fees were Rs. 6000 without food facilities.

I am not satisfied with my faculty, but the placements are decent and have good infrastructure.

Infrastructure: The classrooms are pretty good, and the best part of the college is its canteen, which has good infrastructure and decent classrooms. Though the classrooms don't have any digital board, in today's generation, it is a necessity. The college does not have any career in sports as it does not have any sports facilities. The college with the worst sports facilities.
