The academic structure consists of two minor exams worth 30 marks each and a major exam worth 50 marks per semester, with an internal assessment of 20 marks. The best score from the minor exams is considered. Exams take place four times a year in October, December, March, and May. Evaluation includes moderated exams and teacher-determined internal assessments. Faculty performance varies. Placement eligibility begins in the 7th semester. Computer Science and IT students have a high placement rate of about 90%, while Mechanical and Civil branches have lower rates of 40-50%.
Top recruiters include Infosys, TCS, IBM, Amazon, Deloitte, and Cisco, with the highest on-campus package being 25 LPA and off-campus 42 LPA. Internships offer stipends between 15k to 25k, with potential full-time roles afterward. The college charges an annual tuition fee of approximately 1.1 lakh INR, with semester fees between 40,000 to 60,000 INR, plus additional costs such as a 5,500 INR fee for extracurriculars and a 3,200 INR exam fee per semester.
Scholarships are available for students with annual incomes under 2.5 lakh INR, and there are specific tuition waivers for SC/ST students, though not for OBC students. Top students in each branch receive semester fee exemptions. However, scholarship details require proactive inquiry from students.
