It is one of the best places to learn and grow. The college campus life is very good with year round festivals and various cultural social and technical activities. The faculty here is not too good, when it comes to classroom teaching, but if you approach them personally they do take an interest in you. The infrastructure is still improving. While on campus, you will get an excellent internet speed. All hostel rooms are provided with LAN ports. New hostels have Wi-Fi facilities too. There are on...

Students from different communities across India come to join this college. Some face difficulty to cope with the mixed culture and remain alienated. The study and exam procedure is out dated.

There has been an incident with the hospital authorities but that has been resolved. I have got a feedback about...

There is a good environment for extra-curricular activities as well, with the presence of a lot of clubs to provide platforms to students for enhancing their skills and interests, like robo...

The placements records for core branches is excellent in terms of both percentage and the stipend offered. NITD is visited by well...
