    Poor infrastructure and placement.
    Placements: The placement record of the college is poor. Out of 66 students, only 7-8 students get placed. The average package offered is 2.4 LPA, with the highest package being 8 LPA, offered by companies like Infosys, Wipro, and TCS. Hardly any students get internships. The top roles offered are in web development.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is below average. Labs are not maintained properly, and essential instruments for learning are unavailable. The library is decent for issuing books, and classrooms are nice. However, there are no hostels for students. On the brighter side, the sports facilities are good, with a big ground, and there are various clubs that students can join based on their preferences.
    Faculty: The faculty here is not well-qualified. Most teachers just read slides and move on. The curriculum is outdated and not helpful in preparing students for the industry. Exams are very easy, and students often secure an 8 CGPA by studying just a week before exams.
    Other: I chose this course because I had no other choice. The best thing about my course is its potential to grow in the future, similar to computer science. However, it would be better if they focused more on practical learning rather than rote learning. Scholarships are rarely provided to students. On a positive note, the annual fests like Utkarsh are very enjoyable and well-organized.

    One of the best engineering college in Himachal right now.
    Placements: Minimum 60 percent is needed in 12th class to get admission in this college. Highest packages will be 9 LPA and the average package will be 4 LPA. Top recruiting companies are VIHAS TECHNOLOGIES and many more like this. Minimum 7-7.5 CGPA needed to get an internship. Top roles are we have different club's for doing amazing things like Technical Club, sports club, dance club, fine arts club etc.
    Infrastructure: In Engineering we have the biggest library in whole campus. We have running Wi-Fi and also the LAN Cables, we have different labs and in those labs we have many PC, s available to do coding or any other thing you want, we have good classroom. In hostel we have many facilities like the facility of laundry, we have the sport's equipments for the hostelers, gym facility is also free for hostelers in just 31k per semester.
    Faculty: The minimum qualifications of teachers is M.Tech, and teachers are so helpful. If you are getting any doubt you can ask the anytime even on calls. This course is curriculum relevant because we have different clubs in which we can tell you how industry works and how work is happen in industry. Engineering is not easy but if we study then the academics are not that difficult. And passing percentage for each subject is 40%.
    Other: I chose this course because I have interest in computers and we can say IOT devices. And I just want to learn about cyber security. So that's the main reason for me. The best things about this course is you just not get stuck in between academics only, you got many other things to do like playing games. I think there is nothing to do more in our course, our teachers are good, our HOD is very supportive, so what we are getting is enough. There are many events that are happen in our college like all over boxing championship, star night in which all the freshers from the whole campus participate. Campus crows is also good and as I already say that we have good connectivity, and what I like most about my campus is that the place where it is. The beautiful view from the campus is like heaven. Scholarship is also provided and extracurricular activities like sports, dance, fine art is also provided.

    College do not have good infrastructure and placement.
    Placements: Do not have good placement. The highest package of Uiit is 11lakh only. The average package of Uiit is 4 to 5 lakh only. Their are not so much companies visiting the college. Only out of 100 students only 10 to 15 students got placement in companies.

    Good for IT and CSE branch, bad for CE and ECE.
    Placements: Placement in UIT is limited. They have good placement in IT and CSE, but they have a low rate of placement in my trade, i.e., civil department CE, which was introduced about 4 years ago in UIT, so they have low placement in UIT. Top packages are grabbed by CSE students.
    Infrastructure: In workshops, there is limited equipment and cannot fulfil the requirements of civil workshop equipment. There are no proper skilled teachers for teaching here. There are no hostel facilities, and there is no campus of the University Institute of Technology.
    Faculty: Some teachers are qualified and skilled, but some of them do not know how to teach properly. I am currently studying in the 3rd semester. My 1st semester exams are not so tough. They do not focus on the skilled and practical knowledge of students. There is no scope for any average student there.
    Other: Fest of University Institute of Technology is actually good. They have many festivals like Techniqual Festival, Utkarsh, and Gaddi Group.

    UIT, worth to take admission!
    Placements: The placement rate in college is very good. Every year, several companies approach the college to hire students. Last year, the average salary package was 7 LPA. Students can choose an internship according to their needs, and the college provides every required permission for an internship.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is quiet good. Students can easily access the library of the college and Wi-Fi, while the classrooms use high-tech teaching equipment for better understanding. While there's no hostel available for students, students have to depend on PG's or rented rooms around the college.
    Faculty: Faculty members of the college are very well qualified, always looking towards helping the students in any way possible. The professor's teaching techniques make it easy for students to understand each and every topic. If students study hard, they can easily pass the semester exams.
    Other: UIT and HPU are two of the best government institutes. It's a very good college to join if you want to enhance your skills and are interested in engineering studies.

    Great Infrastructure and Best Facilities.
    Placements: Placements are not good, with minimal students getting placed. In our batch, no companies visited for placement purposes. Most students applied off-campus and secured placements. The roles offered to them include Java Developer, Full Stack Developer, and Software Engineer.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college is impressive, offering hostel facilities for students from distant places such as Bihar, Haryana, Assam, Himachal, and more. They also provide various sports and games opportunities, especially during sports day.
    Faculty: The faculty and curriculum are average. Teachers are cooperative and handle student doubts well. They are knowledgeable in their respective subjects. The difficulty of exams is moderate and can be passed easily by most students.
