Dissatisfied with professors, placements, canteen, mess, etc. Everything needs to be improved.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is third-class. Broken washrooms, no hygiene, no cleanliness, we have to use the staff washrooms. Benches are broken, walls are scraped, and many more third-class and overrated food in the canteen. There are no sports or any other extracurricular activities done in college.

The faculty here is superb.

Infrastructure: In the hostel, single accommodation and double accommodation are also available. So when you are in your first year mainly you will mainly get double accommodation rooms, and when you go into the second year, you will get single rooms. Chair, Table, Almirah, Wall book track, will get in the room. Mess food is okay, you will get 4 meals, and the menu is different every day.

Overall, the college is decent, not that good, but not that bad either.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good, it's not that disappointing. There is no proper ground for this college, instead, there are turfs for the students to play football and cricket. Labs and classrooms are also decent, and the library is the best among the colleges in Mumbai, also because it is very huge and perfect for students to carry out their work without any disturbance. It is one of the best libraries in Navi Mumbai.
