- Second thing is the campus life of this college, no fests are conducted in this college. Most of the emphasis is given on academics.
- Third thing is the number of students in the technical branches, there are about 1000 students in cs related branches.
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose this curriculum based on my interest and suggestions from many seniors and my guradians. Although I had many expectations from this curriculum that it would make me industry ready and job ready but my expectations were shattered when I saw the ground reality. The course is outdated and teaches some invalid things which do not serve its purpose in the field of engineering. Improvements can be done to improve the curriculum and teaching methods. The syllabus should get updated on the basis of industry needs and the focus should be more on developing practical skills rather than theoretical. Exams were conducted ever 1.5 months and the difficulty level of the exams are average.

The quality of the food is good and menu is changed on seasonal basis. Four time food is provided in a day. Hostel are alloted on the basis on first come first serve basis. The fees of the first year hostel is-130000 I think it is affordable as compared to other private colleges.
Admission
I chose this college because I got this college based on my JEE rank. I applied to many colleges I also applied for JSS but its cutoff was very high as compared to my rank JEE so I could not get selected. To get admission in this college you have to sit in UPTAC online counselling and you'll get alloted if you have JEE rank under the cutoff. 85% of the seats in this college are reserved for UPTAC counselling. and 15% are reserved for direct admission.
Faculty
Faculty of this college is well qualified. Most of the teachers have done their post graduation in their respective fields and have done their graduation from IITs and NITs. faculty that I liked the most was my maths teacher from semester 1 and engineering physics teacher from semester 2 because of their work ethic and behaviour towards students. There are no faculty that i don't like Each semester there are two sessional tests, and one Pre university tests. These three are necessary for Internal marks out of 30. The final exam of the semester is called University Tests which comprises of 70 marks The total marks is 100 for each subject The difficulty level of the exams is average, ver few students fail. The course curriculum is a bit outdated.
