Our college is the best in terms of placements and infrastructure.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is good. It has a lot of space with a refreshing environment. In the university, there is a central lab for students. There is a dedicated library which is open 24/7 for all students. There is a dedicated auditorium with a lot of facilities. It has a capacity of 1,000 plus students at a time to sit and attend guest lectures. The hostel life is also more or less good. I stayed in the hostel. It is quite good, but it is also strict.

My opinion on my college.

Infrastructure: Faculty members are good, and they are very friendly with all students except one or two. Other things like the library, classroom, and others are good. The hostel is very bad. They will only take fees from us, but everything will be bad, like food and other things. They will only provide a room and food for the highest fees (₹25,000 per month) I have ever paid for a hostel.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of a college plays a vital role in the development of the college as the students are now focusing on the labs, classrooms, etc. while selecting a college. It is important that the colleges have very good infrastructure with advanced laboratories equipped with state-of-the-art equipment.

Good college for the amount they are providing.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure was good for my curriculum. The hostel is also good, and it is near to the campus, like 5 minutes away. The quality of the food provided in the canteen was good and worth the price they charge. For sports, it's only for the students who have prior experience, not for the freshers, even if they are interested.

My college experience about QMC.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are equipped with smart board facilities and have separate lab facilities for each department. Also, my college has separate grounds for each sport and has a dispensary with a doctor facility.
