A good college to start your career, but it is not good for humanities course.
Placements: There are no placements for mass communication, advertising and journalism. B.Tech and M.Tech courses have good placement percentages. Students were not offered any summer training programs or internships.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is good. The hostel is good, but the mess is bad. The canteen is average. There is no electricity supply from 10 am to 1 pm. The campus is huge with stadiums, playing fields, etc. The campus is Wi-Fi enabled. Food provided is not good. The hostel fee is low. Coolers and ACs are not available. Only the international hostel has air-conditioning facilities.
Faculty: Faculty members are helpful and qualified. Projectors and other visual teaching methods were used to teach, which are helpful for students to understand better. Lots of seminars were held for students to get industry exposure. The course curriculum was not helpful. There were semester exams with regular tests and vivas. We had one industrial tour to get exposure. The faculty are recruited by the government. Faculty for agriculture students are good.
Other: Sports day and annual function are celebrated. The campus atmosphere is great. The campus is ragging free.

It is a great experience that I ever had during my college, and I suggest this as the right choice.
Placements: I have got placed in a new channel, which is in New Delhi, and I have scored 8.8%. Most of the others in my batch got placed at different companies, and there is a good placement ratio. My seniors always got placed in reputed industries. So, it is a nice and good environment for studying and learning something new every day and every time.
Infrastructure: Well, when it comes to infrastructure, it is amazing as you don't have to go anywhere. Every single thing you need is provided to you at the same place. There are the best labs and well-organised classes. I had never experienced any problem during my graduation. We can do live practice whatever you study in the classroom. The labs are the best of editing, and the sound recording studio is amazing. A studio for acting class is cool.
Faculty: My teachers are supportive. They always push you towards good things from where you can learn new things. They are always ready to help you, and at any time, you can ask for help. During my internship, they guided me how to tackle live situations in industry and all.
Other: In my college, every year, we organise 3 or 4 fests in different departments, so it was a good experience about all this. The campus surroundings are good, and you get a good exposure.

Partially satisfied because of the null placements.
Placements: There are no such placement facilities. No company came yet for placements. Earlier it was good for placement, but now there are no placements. 8.5 cgpa is necessary for placements. The highest package 4-5lakh per annum.for agriculture, food technology and dairy technology, companies like WKC, Infosys etc. come. This year TCS also came for engineers.
Infrastructure: The hostels are good. The campus is good, but we don't have any central auditorium or music room for rehearsals. The medical facilities are good as we have our hospital named haye's memorial. We have three canteens in our campus. The hostel food is the worst. The hostel rooms are spacious and clean.
Faculty: The faculty members are good. They are helpful and qualified. The teaching quality is same as other colleges. We have much strength of students so 1 teacher for 100 students this is the ratio. We get industrial exposure, but we have to approach the companies and then go for training or internship.
Other: Events happen every year in annual sports day, and all. The fest happens rarely. The campus crowd is good.

Other: A fantastic College in all the aspects, advanced teaching, world best faculty, mind blowing infrastructure and very large campus. Same that we enter into the college we feel that we are in different location not in that specific area. Overall a very nice college.

Only few of the faculties are expert.
Placements: There is very less chance of direct placement in companies. Around only 30% are placed every year. You have to do everything by yourself. The level of education is very low, as the only cover up the formalities and nothing else. The condition of internship is very poor, so students are avoiding to get internship from here.
Infrastructure: The whole campus is Wi-Fi zone. Labs are given only 2 out of 5 stars. Except some of the classroom (which are smart classroom) all others are normal. Library, medical facilities are best. A large Play ground is available. Hostel rooms are very complex.
Faculty: Only few of the faculties are expert. And because of administration is in private hands the faculties are recruited and promoted arbitrarily. Course curriculum is good enough. It covers all around the topics and useful for further studies. Mostly dairy technology students are placed.
