I'm not saying that this is the worst branch in B.Tech. The opportunities are less for mechanical engineers because the software is ruling this world.

The faculty supports students very much, placements are quite decent with an average of 7 LPA.
Placements: Around 50% of students got placed in our course. The highest salary package offered is 40 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 3 LPA. Accenture, Amazon, and HP visit the college. Around 40% of students got internships at Amazon. Computer science artificial intelligence, data science, cyber security, and machine learning roles are offered.
Infrastructure: In our college, Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and a library are maintained very hygienic. Our college has a high-speed internet connection and when it comes to the hostel, we can rate it as average. The infrastructure needs to be developed. Sports and games will be played at the highest level.
Faculty: Teachers are more qualified like IIT teachers with pure knowledge and practical knowledge. They are very helpful to students during exams and also for gaining knowledge about the subject. They support us very much. Skills are the utmost priority for our teachers.
Other: I chose computer science engineering because of my interest in computers to explore new technologies and gain more experience in computers. It is my utmost priority. I think the course structure should be changed where new technologies should be added.

The infrastructure is okay, and the faculty isn't that good.
Placements: Nearly 30 to 40% of students are placed in our course, and the package ranges from 3 LPA to 37 LPA. Students are placed in companies like Flipkart, TCS, Accenture, and other big companies. Many internship roles from Accenture and other companies. Top roles like product analyst and other roles are also offered.
Infrastructure: The rooms and labs are average; they are not too messy but aren’t too clean also. The food in the canteen is mostly not good; sometimes it may be cooked better, but most of the time, it’s not that good. The college management doesn’t look at the maintenance of the classrooms. They look at the infrastructure and facilities when there is any review of our college. The greenery and the plants are good.
Faculty: Some faculty are good, but most of them just have the basic knowledge. The students need to work on their own. The course is relevant, and the subjects are similar to other courses; like many subjects are similar with different branches or courses. The students need to depend on themselves more than on the faculty. The difficulty level of the exam is based on the subject.
Other: This course offers a wide range of options to learn more about Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. I am an event coordinator and organizer of the events and fests; they take place only sometimes, and most of the time, they are canceled. The organizing is okay.

Placements were impressive in past years, but not now.
Placements: A minimum of 120 members are taken for every department. The lowest salary package offered is 2 LPA. The highest salary package offered is 32 LPA. Many companies like Tata, TCS, Amazon, and Capgemini visit our college. A very low percentage of students are selected for placements and internships.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is not used by students We use our mobile data, but we have poor signal around. The library has a wide range of collections but students are not allowed in college hours. Labs have only computers but with tidy and of poor quality.
Faculty: Our faculty members are qualified and knowledgeable. They teach like in schools. The best quality teachers are designing their jobs, which is difficult for students. Half of the subject is studied by ourselves until our semester examinations. The pass percentage depends on YouTube history and selecting channels.

Infrastructure and placement of my college are good.
Placements: The placement in our college is far better than other colleges. More students are getting placements at our college. Placement starts from the third year onwards, and our senior got 44 lakhs per annum, which is the highest of last year's seniors.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is very good but not as much as other universities. There are separate blocks for their own groups. The main block, the CSE block, is very large compared to other colleges, and CCTV is also provided in the classroom.
Faculty: The faculty, curriculum, and exams for our course are very good. Every year, there will be two semesters for every student. They collect 1,200 per semester exam. If we fail, we have to write the supplementary examination in the third year of my B.Tech with a supplementary fee.
Other: The most I like about my college is its greenery.

Placements: The percentage of students placed last year is 80. The highest package is 10 LPA, and the lowest package is 3 LPA. Many MNC companies visited our college for the drive, like Accenture, Tech Mahindra, CarTrade, etc. Many students are placed in these companies.

We have a canteen where we hang out with our friends, and our canteen is very good and of high quality.
Faculty: Our faculty has a lot of experience, and they are very professional. They teach us with examples. Teachers are engaged with us. Faculty support and encourage us in every aspect. Our HOD is very supportive and conducts events for us. Teachers encourage students to participate in extracurricular activities.
Other: I chose this course (Data Science) because in the future, these courses have high priority and more demand. Data Science has more future scope.

Average faculty and infrastructure.
Placements: Only about 40% of students in my course are placed. The highest package was 9 LPA, and the lowest was 2 LPA. Top recruiters are VEM Technologies and Tech Mahindra. About 50% of students get internships in companies like Tech Mahindra. Top roles offered in my course are assistant engineer.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of my course is below average with below average labs, no Wi-Fi, classrooms are below average, and the library is good. Talking about hostels, they are average, and about food, it was below average. The hostel had a small gym, and talking about sports, we have a good ground.
Faculty: Yes, teachers are helpful and averagely qualified, holding M.Tech degrees. The teaching quality is average. Talking about the course curriculum, it was good but not directly geared towards industry readiness; we need to be trained. Semester exams are somewhat difficult, with a pass percentage of about 70%.
Other: I chose this course because I love core subjects. The labs must be improved for our course. Talking about events and the crowd, they are just average.
