The annual fee at my college is Rs 8950. The government also provides scholarships such as Egrantz which covers almost all the cost. There is internship assistance in the college under the Career Guidance and Placement Unit. Internship information will be given by this unit. They also help with mini and major projects. Many students have been placed in firms like Amazon, Adobe, Bosch, Texas Instruments, and so on.
