Course Curriculum Overview

3

Course curriculum is mostly same just like all the other colleges in india but not like the updated version we really need for tgis generation and we have to do so much things in hostel for our own improvement .

Placement Experience

4

Placements are really decent and sometimes overwhelming as all the students eligible gets the chances to sit for all the multi national companies like google and microsoft easily .And if someone wants to get into core and research they will also easily pursue what they want.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fees is abou 125000 rupees for tution fees pwr year and 20000 rs hostel fees and 56000 rs mess fees with fee waiver to students from sc st and pwd category along with students with less than 1 lakh yearly income(full fee waiver) and 2/3 rd fee waiver to students with 1 to 5 lakh monthly income.

Campus Life

4

Campus life is really great as we can easily roam around in nights all over the campus and in day we easily get pwrmission to go outside the campus and roam all over the city .though the entry tome is 12 am which sometimes feel unnecessary.

Hostel Facilities

3

Hostel facility is more or less manageable, with 3 bed room for 3 students with 2 fans over the extreme beds. Meals are also diverse and tasty except when morning food is repeated in the lunch menu. Renting a room or PG is also very affordable as this isnt a very costly city.

Admission

This college is far better than the other colleges in all the necessary things like placements nad internship opportunities and it gives the best campus life than other colleges what i was getting at my jee rank

Faculty

4

Sone of the faculty members are really great and too much helpful and treat us like their son and helps each time .but some seems to be really strict and blindly make us follow the 75 per attendance criteria in classes.

Interview Experience

4

No, i got into the college through josaa counselling and admission are taken through 3 sorts of counselling which are josaa, csab and dasa. Dasa is for foreign students whereas josaa and csab are for indian students.

Night Life

4

Nightlife is kind of cool to experience in our college as there is a lot of greenery and trees all around with a hint of views all over. The facilities such as gym, basketball court and student activity centre also make it more enjoyable to live life outside of our academics.

Placement Experience:

from 6/7 th semester onwards students become eligible for campus placements. Infosys visited with around 22-23 offers , Cognizant visited with arount 15-16 offers , TCS visited with several offers(not sure how many) , that's it the big names. Apart from these small startups and companies visited too. Highest package offered was 11lpa by TCS , 9.6lpa by infosys, 6.48lpa by Cognizant. Profiles were ASE in TCS , PAT in CTS , SET in Infosys. The percentage of students placed was less arount 30-40% , mostly because the curriculum lacks placement prep. I have joined Cognizant as a Programmer Analyst Trainee after graduating .
