Course Curriculum Overview:
I always had a liking towards the college and many of my family friends have already studied here and are in various good places, and also there is a lot more informative exposures we can collect from Sastra more than education like extra curricular activities like singing, so I've always dreamt of joining thisone thoughel after joining only I now understand that particularly my course is somewhat challenging to study and pass as the subjects are so wague.

- Most of the Faculties are very knowledgeable and very interactive they will always be ready make u to understand the concepts rater than making you to prepare for the exam. Many of the faculty here will be doing many researches and they hold patents.
- Quality of education is very good at sastra, the lab facilities and the equipments at sastra are very good. The way sastra concentrate more on labs, researches is very intriguing. Even students can join under any faculty and can learn anything

- Restrictions for girls are something i feel like that could change. Girls will only be given two outings per semester and every day they should reach hostel by 6 30.

Placement Experience:
The students should be maintaining a minimum cgpa of 7 and a cgpa of above 8 will be good enough for any company. Many companies usually visit the university offering placements. The highest package is around 32lpa and the average will like 6 or 8 lpa.
