The college, under the TEQIP scheme, has a qualified faculty with many holding advanced degrees, fostering a supportive learning environment. While the college offers limited events and facilities, practical sessions are emphasized to build engineering skills. The fee structure is comparable to private colleges, with tuition at 25,000 INR, hostel fees at 50,000 INR, and additional fees for library, sports, and stationery.
SC/ST students pay 2,700 INR, and general students pay approximately 19,000 INR, with exam fees around 1,600 INR. Scholarships and exemptions, such as for Jammu and Kashmir students, help mitigate costs.

The college supports placement efforts through a dedicated department and provides free GATE coaching. Internships with local industries are arranged, although stipends are not provided.
Scholarships are available for economically disadvantaged students, but communication about these opportunities can be inconsistent. The college's fee structure includes a 5,000 INR caution deposit, a 32,500 INR first-semester fee, and 30,000 INR for each subsequent semester. Hostel facilities, costing 42,000 INR annually, are available, and information about scholarships is circulated through notice boards and email.
