It has good infrastructure, nice placements, and a huge campus. It is recommended.

Placements: Placements are good but not the best. The RCC (Rollwala Computer Center) is considered the best college for MCA by ACPC, in terms of rank cut-off. The average package offered ranges from 4.5-5 LPA. The highest package offered ranges from 6-8 LPA. The lowest package offered ranges from 2.5-3 LPA. So I will consider it has good placements for the MCA course.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good. It has a newly constructed building and nice labs. Classrooms are modern with a projector. Hostel facility is provided by the university at a cost of Rs. 1,500 per year (government). So it is also very good. There is a library in the building.

Faculty: Teachers are quite helpful and well-qualified. Teaching quality is also decent. The course curriculum is a bit old and outdated, but it can still work. It does not make students industry-ready. Semester exam are not so difficult. It is medium. The pass percentage is 33 percent.

Other: It is considered the best college for MCA (government), so I chose it.

Best college ever.

Placements: A very small amount of students were placed last year in the MCA department. The highest package is 4.5 lakhs per annum, and the lowest package is 2.5 lakhs per annum. Companies include Hummingbird and Briskcode Technology. Sixty percent got internships from companies like Briskcode Technology and Bourntec Solutions Bhubaneswar. Roles include web developer and back-end developer.

Infrastructure: The college, the campus, and also the hostel environment are very good for students. The faculty members are the best. You can get the best knowledge from this college. I would like to refer Srusti Academy of Management for MCA. Without any confusion, you can make your career the best from here.

Faculty: The faculty members are well-qualified and also responsible. They teach well. The students are able to learn from the faculty members and achieve good scores in maximum subjects. You will never fail in semesters. Just take an admission without any doubt. Semesters are not hard for all. There is a 99.9% pass rate.

Other: I chose MCA for becoming a software developer.

Good faculty members, good hostel and infrastructure, and the worst communication and placement.

Placements: There's no campus placement here. 30% of students cracked NET, so they got jobs as assistant professors. And others got job recommendations from alumni or tried off campus. One startup company came last year and offered a 6-month internship with a job offer, but HOD didn't allow internships during the course period.

Infrastructure: WiFi, labs, and classrooms are top-notch. Hostel facilities are the best. The quality of food is good as per the price. There's a dispensary for students on the university campus. Sports competitions like UPL and football get held every year. And there're two grounds; they're huge.

Faculty: Faculty is the best, qualified, and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is best. The course is not industry-oriented, but if you're preparing for NET or GATE, it's best for you. But you will get the best education on every subject from the best faculty members.

Other: I scored rank 10 in CPET, and as Utkal University is one of the largest and oldest universities in Odisha. I had to choose this university for better education and campus life.

You know about the IPSAR college

Placements: In the last year, about 20-25% of our seniors get placed. The top recruiting companies for my course include GOOGLE, MICROSOFT, AMAZON, etc. The average package for MCA freshers is about 3-4 Lacs per annum, which increases with experience.

Infrastructure: This course is very helpful to me. For practicals, the college has a fully functional computer lab that is always open from 10 am to 3 pm except on weekends. The classrooms are clean, and each one is equipped with AC. The hostel is pretty good and budget-friendly, costing around 5000rs per month, which includes food served four times a day. The quality of the food is good.

Faculty: The teachers in this college are highly qualified, with some of them having Ph.Ds in their relevant subjects. They are also very friendly and always clear the doubts of the students. They teach by giving real-life examples. The questions that appear in the semester are pretty good. It totally depends on your study whether the exams are easy or hard.
