Bustling Campus with the required needs.
Placements: The median salary package offered to MBA students was 4.5 LPA, and graduates were placed with companies like Accenture, Dell, and Wipro. However, only 65-70% of students were placed, probably because the class size was too large. So, if we want to get a good job after graduation, we will need to work hard and put in the effort.
Infrastructure: Our college has a bustling campus with a lot of crowds, even more than I saw in my bachelor's degree. This environment sometimes made me feel happy and excited, but at other times it made me anxious. However, we were easily able to access all the digital resources that were required for our studies.
Faculty: The teachers at this college have a lot of a helping mindset and are the most kindhearted teachers I have ever met. While my mom selected this college considering their academic performance, she was initially worried about the fee structure. However, my teachers conveyed about my economic situations and merit scores to the management, and they reduced my fees by 50%.
