Course Curriculum Overview:
Biomedical engineering is a highly emerging field after the recent outburst of covid virus recently. Our curriculum prepares us for the industry-level standards by performing labs and demonstrations on industry-level equipment like ECG, EMG, Electron Microscope, Atomic force microscope, EEG ( brain signal reading ), etc. The teaching method of the professors is very great. Our curriculum is a little outdated and it also needs to consider the advancement the recent technologies like the use of AI and new machine learning algorithms in the biomedical field.
There are 2 major exams each semester. One is the mid-semester exam and the other is the end-semester exam. Apart from these, there can be various other class tests and assignments which is completely based on professor-to-professor.

- A great campus to gain exposure among students from different states and regions
- Activites and events conducted by the clubs across the campus
- Sport activities sponsored by the campus conduction intra and inter nit competetions
Placement Experience:
Holds a 100 percent placement rate for 2 consecutive years . Major and minor companies visit the campus via online and offline interactions to filter out the students based on their academic performance and skillsets on a vast range of activities . However competetion is very high among the students to bag the highest salary package possible . Also many of them consider to join Masters in institutions abroad via competetive exams.

Students are eligible for campus placements from 7th semester. Many companies such as Microsoft, VISA, Juspay, AWS came to our college. Mostly companies prefer students from circuital branches than from other branches. More than 800+ offers were made. Due to recession the number of offers are less compartively.
About 75-80% students are getting placed within college. Some opt for higher studies and some prepare for other exams such UPSC etc.
My plan is to get placed after getting my degree
