Gathering of the people like hall days, Diwali,etc. which helps us to socialize
Campus have court for every sport, so we learn anything from here.

Around 80-90% of students get placements through campus placement. Others who are left will apply for placement on their own, they apply through LinkedIn and online messaging to the companies, which requires a lot of hard work. Students in their final year are eligible for placements.

Placement Experience:

Campus placement are pretty good. But according to my course I'm not interested to get job regarding my course. If I didn't get placement from campus placement I will go through the offcampus placement.

Campus life is very vibrant. I learned many things here.
In my department there is not much load od attendance.

Dislikes

Infrastructure is very old here. Buildings are built in 20th century (starting from 1951)
Basic facilities like water, food is not up to the mark.

Placement Experience:

Placement wise the institute is very good. Mostly students gets placed from the college only. If you are from BTech course, in 7th semester you sit for the placements. Otherwise Dual Degree students (BTech+Mtech), sit for placement in their 9th semester. Total number of offers made during 2023-24 Placements are 1350+ made to 1270+ students. Highest package is always 1 Cr+ in our institute. Average package is around 17 lacs per annum. Not all students sit for placements here. Many choose higher studies, some choose civil services as their goal and many other career paths can be seen here.
