CSE course being one of the latest branches in the college, it's syllabus being one of the best in the APJAKTU, paired along with the great opportunities CET brings as a college environment clearly has its positives.

Many companies among the previously mentioned ones offer pre placement offers, such that select students are given internship opportunities under the institution before their intake into the company itself. Also the part of alumni in bringing in opportunities for students is great as many students who prove to be technically skilled are hired for remote work and such opportunities as well.

Faculty to student ratio is approximately 1:100 and classes are slightly overpopulated as to my liking. Teachers are usually of mentor mindset and are experts in a specific field. They usually take part or help students in their research ventures and supportive. However a very low faculty to students ratio often makes them less approachable to all students. Students often need to find online alternatives for their academic quests.
