Good infrastructure and environment for study of the technical department.

Placements: Placement for the B.Tech department is very good up to 15-18 LPA yearly. But for management, it's very less, especially for the HR and finance major students. Only technical department-related students will get a good scope to enhance their career growth and knowledge.
