I am dissatisfied with the campus and faculty.
Placements: No placement or internship as per your choice. College is not going to provide any sort of internship facilities. You have to apply outside for internships of your choice, and apart from that, own. There is no placement is also there from the college. I am very dissatisfied from this thing.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is okay and not like any big university. There are no Wi-Fi facilities, but the classrooms are okay, with a library and a lab. But there is no canteen, food, mess, or any other facilities are zero. There are no sports or nothing. It is very boring to study here.
Faculty: Faculty members are okay, knowledgeable, and have good skills, but way of teaching varies from each one of them. It is up to you how you grab the fundamentals. No complaints are taken into consideration or acted upon, so you have to study on your own.
Other: Value for money is okay, but there are no functions, only freshers.
