Yes, you can take admission here.
Placements: The placement department is so amazing and supportive. The placement last year went for INR 45 lacs per annum and the lowest package went for INR 20 lacs per annum. The placement department of this college arranged a seminar for a better understanding of placement to give students better opportunities.
Infrastructure: The course is going to be tough; you have to be better in your studies. The course department is not as supportive as in a Ph.D.; you need to do a lot of research that requires a lot of time and effort but for this course, you do not have more resources, but you will have been given a high amount of pressure to publish a research paper.
Faculty: The faculty is too good to be supportive; they will help you every time they are so knowledgeable. They have such an amazing way of teaching that I cannot explain in words. The teachers are so amazing, so helpful, and so lovely. They will make you industry-ready, and they will help you every time.
