    Good infrastructure and facilities, but the quality of faculty and placements need improvement.
    Placements: In our course, around 70-80% of students were successfully placed. The highest salary package offered was around 12-15 LPA, while the average was around 5-6 LPA, with the lowest package being 3-4 LPA. Top recruiting companies included major names like TCS, Wipro, Cognizant, Infosys, and Accenture. Around 40-50% of students secured internships, with companies like TCS, Capgemini, and Cognizant offering these opportunities. The most common roles offered were software developer, systems analyst, business analyst, and IT consultant. These placements and internships reflect good industry connections, although the numbers may vary each year.
    Infrastructure: For our course, the college provides basic but functional facilities. Wi-Fi is available across the campus, although it can sometimes be slow during peak hours. Labs are equipped with the necessary software and hardware for practical sessions, though some systems may be slightly outdated. Classrooms are spacious, with basic amenities like projectors and whiteboards, offering a decent learning environment. Library has a good collection of books and online resources, though it can become crowded, especially during exam periods.
    Faculty: Teachers were generally approachable and willing to help. However, the quality of support may vary depending on the subject and professor. Many faculty members were well-qualified with advanced degrees, but practical industry experience varied. Some teachers demonstrated deep subject knowledge, while others could have benefited from more industry experience to bridge theory with real-world applications. Teaching quality was generally decent, though it depended on the faculty member. Some professors had a good teaching methodology, while others stuck more to the traditional lecture style with less interactive learning.
