Absolutely satisfied with my college and management.
Placements: There are many courses at Gitam, and the package is bearable for middle-class students. Hyderabad, Visakhapatnam, and Delhi are the top recruitment companies. Every student in our college has a one-year internship at Gitam Institute of Medical Science and Research and the hospital as a staff nurse.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good, and new technology and equipment are used by the management to teach classes. The wide classrooms can occupy up to 200 students for four years. In the library, there are many books available. The quality of lectures is good, and dignity is maintained by the students. Canteens are also available.
Faculty: The best-qualified teachers conduct knowledgeable classes. The curriculum for the four years is planned and continues according to the syllabus, which helps students grasp the knowledge. It is somewhat difficult to study here, but it is worth it. The pass percentage is 50%.
Other: I chose the course because of my passion. This course has taught patience, integrity, and knowledge. This course should spread to many more areas to make it available to everyone. In my college, Kalakruthi events and many big events are conducted frequently.

I am satisfied because of the faculty.
Placements: 20 percent of students were placed in our course. The highest package is 14 lakhs per annum, and the lowest is 4 lakhs per annum. Companies like Oracle and Microsoft recruit from here. Seventy percent of students got internships from this course. Top roles offered in this course are SOC analyst, front-end developer, and back-end developer.
Infrastructure: The hostel facility and infrastructure are very good, and the food is also very nice. They use quality ingredients and products to make food in the hostel. The quality of food available in the mess and canteen is very good and hygienic. Medical facilities are very well maintained by Manipal Hospital.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They teach very well. I will not say for sure, but the teaching is very good. The semester exams are very easy. Almost 96 percent of students will pass, but students need to put in their own effort to pass the exams.

Review of Visakhapatnam Best Deemed University.
Placements: About placements in our college, they are pretty average this year. Due to the recession, very few companies attended, and those that did had an average offer of around 3-4 LPA. The highest offer was around 12 LPA. The percentage of students who got offers was also very low, around 60%. Almost all of the placements for all branches were in technical fields, and in non-technical fields, placements were near to zero. In Gitam, unlike other colleges, we don't get any internship opportunities within the college; we have to apply for them outside the campus, which is a very negative point here.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure in Gitam cannot be faulted; for the fee we pay, the infrastructure is worth it. All the classrooms are well air-conditioned with high-tech facilities for charging laptops, Wi-Fi available all around the campus, and more. The labs are also very well maintained; they don't seem as if they are 30 years old. Equipment in labs gets replaced frequently, leading to new instruments and technology in our labs. However, the hostels are a bit more expensive for what they provide, in my opinion. The variety of food provided in the hostel mess is vast, but the taste of it is not so good. Compared to other universities in the same tier, the mess at Gitam is much better. There are numerous sports facilities at Gitam, ranging from an indoor stadium to an outdoor stadium for cricket, football, and more. From chess to table tennis to cricket, we can play all types of sports here. The medical facility at Gitam is also very good. Just opposite the technical department of the college, there is a dental and MBBS part of the college where they provide free treatment to all the students of Gitam.
Faculty: The faculty and curriculum are way below par considering the fees charged. The teachers here may have many certificates on paper, but it does not reflect in their teaching methods. They often just read out the presentation slides they have prepared. While not all faculty members are like this, most follow a similar pattern. Ultimately, it falls upon the students to self-study for exams. Every student is assigned a mentor for academic assistance, but many mentors seem disengaged, only collecting signatures every six months without providing much support. The curriculum also seems subpar compared to other universities of the same tier; it appears tailored to ensure students pass rather than fostering deep understanding. Internal assessments are worth 70 marks, meaning a student can pass by scoring just 35 marks. Semester exams, worth 30 marks each, are not very challenging, often featuring repeated questions from previous semesters. The pass percentage is also very high.
Other: I chose this college simply because of its location; it is near to my home, and it is not a bad college. If we have the zeal to study, it is a good choice as we get all necessary things to study here. The library here is top-notch, as are the classrooms and everything else. Fests here are also very good; something or the other happens every other week. The crowd here is also very diverse, ranging from local to international exchange students, giving us exposure to a lot of people.

Beyond Books, Creating Memories.
Placements: We have quite good numbers in placements. This year, we had the highest package of around 45 Lacs and an average of around 4 to 5 Lacs. Top recruiting companies like Amazon, Infosys, TCS, IBM, and many more. Top roles like data analyst, software developer, and many others.
Infrastructure: We have great infrastructure compared to other colleges. There is an option for 4, 3, and 2 B.Ed common sharing and AC rooms, with each room having 2 tube lights, fans, a study light, and one B.Ed light. Meal quality is also nice and hygienic. We have all medical facilities, and all kinds of sports grounds and stadiums are provided.
Faculty: The only reason I chose this course is that CSE is in the rat race, and those who are doing CSE have great packages ahead only of those who have good scores. The examinations are a bit difficult if you don't prepare thoroughly. The subject must be read on the day it is taught.

I would not recommend this college for middle-class students.
