"Good Learning Opportunities, but Infrastructure and Connectivity Need Improvement.
Placements: In my course, around 45% of students were placed, with the highest salary package being ?4 LPA, the lowest ?1.5 LPA, and the average package around ?2.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies included Teach Mahindra, Cognizant, and Infosys. Around 40% of students secured internships in companies like HCL and Wipro. The top roles offered were Support Engineer and Data Entry.
Infrastructure: The course has good basic facilities, including Wi-Fi, clean labs, big classrooms, and a library with enough books. The hostel has clean rooms, but the food in the mess and canteen is average. There are medical facilities, but the sports facilities could be better.
Faculty: The teachers are generally helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable, but the teaching quality varies across subjects. The course curriculum is somewhat relevant but needs update to better prepare students for the industry. The semester exams are moderate difficult, with a pass percentage around 70-75%.. .
Other: I chose this course to start a career in teach. The best parts are the practical learning and real-world experience. The course could be updated to keep up with industry trends. The campus has fun events, but the connectivity and facilities could be better.
