Irrespective of the course you opt for you will end up by placement in software firm by the college.

Placements: I am from mechanical engineering batch of the year 2013-2017. The highest salary package offered was 3.5 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered was 1.8 LPA. Infosys, Wipro, Tech Mahindra And CTS were the top recruiting companies of our college. The role offered was as an assistant software engineer. The number of the students provided internship was none as the college doesn't offer any internships, and therefore, students do not undertake internships.

I'm satisfied with the college. Placements are good. And efforts are made by the management and MD.

Placements: Approximately 70 to 90 students from Mechanical were placed, out of about 200. The highest salary package offered was about 5L per annum. Saint Gobain, Zoho, SanMarc, Infosys, CTS and TCS were some remarkable companies that offered recruitment. Offers were mostly for GET and Internships, based on the evaluation of which permanent jobs would be granted.

I am satisfied with our college in terms of placements, food, infrastructure, and resources.

About 60% of the students got placed, and CTS and Wipro offered placements. The placement committee is decent here.

Excellent infrastructure and food, Good quality faculty and fair placements in 2018.

Placements: In my final year, we all were eager about our placements. To our surprise, there is a drop in the job opportunity in the industries. But my college place com coordinator's untiring efforts resulted in the placement of more than 75 percent of my batchmates. Cognizant and Infosys are the top recruiters for my college.

Absolutely satisfied because of faculty, students & good facilities.

Placements: Placements are pretty good at this college where approximately 800 students are placed out of 1200 in a particular batch. IT Giants like Infosys, Cognizant & TCS pick up maximum number of candidates. Training for the placement starts in the 2nd year itself & you are placed before entering your final year.

The college is do best only in their food and the standard for placement is getting less day by day.

Placements: It was really moderate and the highest placement for this year is Rs.6L. The average pay is around 2-3. The person with arrears are not allowed for placements. The main reason for dull placements is student don't have the business knowledge. Most of the students were offered sales executive jobs. For HR -2.5L per annum was the package.

A very good college for studies and mostly very good for the food provided.

Placements: Most of the placement companies that came to college were software companies like Cognizant, Infosys, Wipro, etc., but students who have cleared all the semester papers were only allowed for placements, not even students with one arrear were allowed. There is a separate block for placement in the college. Very few core companies will come for placement, and after graduation, the college will send emails about off-campus placement for freshers.

Dissatisfied with the placements.

Placements: For the past two years, the number of companies came for placements is not much. There are no mechanical core companies for the last 2 to 3 years. The selection of placement is also less. Only IT-based companies are coming for the interview. Only CSE and IT students can be selected. Even though the selection is less in number, for other departments, it is very difficult to attend the interviews and get passed.

Food is life, and if you love non-vegetarian, then you should join in this college.

Placements: Before four years, the placement was too good, which include a lot of core companies even in the year 2015 the mobile phone company, Huawei came to our campus and selected 3 students with a salary package of 10 lacs per annum. But this year, the placement is dull, which is half compared to that of the previous year hope while we are super seniors, the chance of placement should increase.

The college is good for the undergraduates, who want a sound knowledge of engineering.

Placements: The facilities of internship are good. The internships during my time were not a mandatory part of the course, but now, the internship facilities have become prominent, and good companies like Deloitte and Accenture come for the placements. The recent flood problem has hindered job opportunities, but they are likely to be settled soon.
