Top recruiting companies are Sobha Construction Dubai, TAFe, Hyundai, etc. 100 percent of students are getting internships from the course and in companies like TVS training and services, Chennai. Quality engineer, sales. Etc. are the roles offered in companies.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available even at the hostel and on college premises. The infrastructure is old and well-maintained at the college premises. And a new hostel is opened this year. The laboratories have all machines and engines and the staff allows students to learn from them. The library is available with all books including foreign authors and local authors. The quality of food is decent in the hostel mess and canteen. The medical facilities are also available within college named dispensary where government doctors used to visit regularly on an hourly basis. Talking about sports, students are very great at making efforts.
Faculty: The teachers and professors are very well qualified helpful and friendly to learn new things every day. The teaching quality is good. Curriculum-relevant courses are there.

The best part of my life. It has given me more friends and knowledge and how to survive in society.
Placements: In IT, 100% of students were placed. TCS and Cognizant selected more students. Package will vary based on role, up to 4-7 LPA. Analysts, developers, and testers are they selected. In internships, fewer students are only interested. Zifo is the main company for biotechnology students.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure and facilities are okay. Wi-Fi and library are also available. But fewer lab facilities are there. Hostel rooms were also okay but the food was average. In college, a canteen is available. Medical facilities are also available. In sports, there is a lot of exposure. People who are interested in sports will definitely help you as much as you need.
Faculty: The faculty members and students bond very well and are comfortable. They are easily available to help you with whatever you need. Actually, this course will help you in the medical industry. Semester exams are also not that complicated. Pass percentage is based on the first mark.
Other: In my course, you will learn hands-on experience. It will be helpful in the lab industry.

Good college with less feels and good placements.
Placements: 51 percent of students were placed and the highest salary package is 14lakhs per annum. Top companies for not more but the placement were good. The companies select students with no arrear. The course has been accredited by national board of accreditation based on academic performance.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is average and all can survive with good environment. The hostel is nice for the 1st year and for 3,4 th years but it is average for the 2nd year. Food is not very bad. Medical facilities are good the hostel caretakers will take to hospital if needed.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and experienced. The teach all the subjects in a professional way. The semester exams are quite hard but doing hardwork can make us write the exams well. The question paper is not so tough and getting help from library by referring the books can help score more marks.

Decent college for engineering.
Placements: The placement here is about 60-70%, and the highest package is 32 LPA this year, and the average package is 5 LPA, and I have no idea about the minimum package. Some of the well-known companies like Walmart, Tata, etc. come to recruit students for their company. And students from CSE, ECE, IBT, IT, and EEE had the highest placement.
Infrastructure: The hostel has no Wi-Fi, and the infrastructure is also not very well maintained. The walls have all gotten old, and the washrooms and toilets are not that clean. The college facilities are quite good; the classrooms are big enough, and the staff are also very warm and welcoming. If I had to talk about sports, then it's average when it comes to sports, and the mess and canteen food are not so good for our health.
Faculty: Teachers are very well qualified, and the teaching quality is above average. Within four years the students are mentally and physically prepared for their life, and the 2 and 3 years are the toughest for most of the students. The pass percentage is 50%, which is not very difficult for an average student to pass.
Other: The hostel infrastructure and food of the hostel should be changed and improved.

The management is very good, and the college provides many sports facilities.
