In our college the teaching quality is very good.
Placements: After graduating from this college, I got a placement with a salary package of 5 lakhs per year. The companies that recruited students from our college were Cocacola, Redapple, and TCS. Around 50 to 70 percent of students got internships in our college. The best rule that they implemented was that students must have 75% attendance.
Infrastructure: The college provides us with high-speed internet access in our labs and classrooms. The labs are air-conditioned, which makes for a comfortable learning environment. The college canteen serves delicious food, and there are many affordable room and board options off-campus.
Faculty: The teachers are very knowledgeable, and many of them are pursuing higher degrees such as a Ph.D. or an M.Tech. They're always willing to help students who are struggling, and they make sure that the students are prepared for the industry. The college also provides opportunities for students to work in the industry, which is a great way to gain hands-on experience.
Other: I liked computer applications when I studied it in 11th grade. I learned about programming and was excited about it. So I decided to join the BCA course. I am trying to improve myself through this course. My colleagues and I play cricket, football, volleyball, table tennis, and badminton. In April and May, the college organizes a big fest called "be fest." At the end of the year, the college throws a freshers party. Students who score between 60 and 100 percent are awarded the Swami Vivekananda scholarship.
