It is a wonderful college, and I like this college.
Placements: In our course, students who scored 92-78% of marks for placed. Top recruiting companies of our college are Goonj, Udaan Welfare Foundation, Smile Foundation, Rural Health Care Foundation, etc. If anyone got 50% and above, then they can get an internship, but they should speak English.
Infrastructure: Facilities in our college are Wi-Fi, classrooms and a hostel for students. The quality of the facility in our hostel is the best for living and food of our hostel canteen. In our hostel, there is a playground for football, cricket, etc. There is also a basketball court. Our university made a hospital for the treatment of the staff members and students.
Faculty: Our teachers are very helpful, and they always help us as our friends. Teachers are even qualified. They all have completed their PhDs and now teach us. This course curriculum is relevant. We have maths and economics in our course that makes us industry-ready.

It is a beautiful place and provides a proper environment to mould ourselves by helpful teachers.
Placements: Some internships are provided, but I don't have much information about placements. Our seniors are interning with certain NGOs. Placements are also offered in NGOs. The lowest salary offered was Rs. 12,000 per month and the highest salary offered was Rs. 20,000 per month. The college is efficient in providing placements for us.
Infrastructure: We have Wi-Fi facility, proper classrooms and a good library with a huge collection of all types of books needed which is very helpful. Medical facilities provided are also good. There is a good environment on campus. They also guide for sports and games. We don't have laboratory classes.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are excellent, qualified and very much helpful. They provide us with proper help and knowledge. They are holding their PhDs. They don't teach us digitally. The course curriculum is relevant and helpful, but we don't get industry exposure.
Other: Scholarships in our college are provided to students based on their marks.
