A reputed institution with lot of opportunities.
Placements: The approximate placement for the course would be 60%. The highest package was 14 lacs and the lowest was 3 lacs. Deshaw, informatica, Zoho, Aricent, TCS, IBM, hcl were some recruiters. Top roles were software developer, software engineer etc. The highest package offered for MCA course was 6.5 lacs and the lowest was 3 lacs.
Infrastructure: The classrooms, library were decent. The college is located in a very accessible location. Hostel food and canteen were decent and occasionally good. There was no Wi-Fi, and the labs were not upto the mark for a course that should create serious developers.
Faculty: Most of the teachers were highly qualified and very dedicated and helpful and patient. Some of them even went above and Beyond their role and helped us create a lot of internal projects for a more practical exposure, I felt it should have been across all the course and labs. At the time there were some course like cloud computing and oracle programming which was included in the syllabus and it helped us to better equipped.
Other: This institution was second choice in my TANCET counselling, it is a very reputed institution with good opportunities for placement. A lot of school seniors had completed their engineering courses here so it was a good institution to do my MCA. Definitely would ask for essential infrastructure like Wi-Fi and lab should be accessible all times if students couldn't afford laptops. And a specialised curriculum that encouraged more practical assignments. We used to have a lot of technical and cultural fests which gave us a chance to participate as well as conducts events which helped us in improving our organisation and leadership skills. Things have changed a lot since then and its still evolving, but definitely a good institution.
