The campus is good with mountain views. There are many places to visit and explore.

Placements: Placements of SOCS are the best, with an average salary package of 15 LPA. There is no accurate information about placements. Students may have to take non-core placement offers, which are compulsory, but can opt out. Core placement is also offered.

College is good for engineering courses as is the core of this college.

Placements: Placements are good with an average salary package of 15 LPA. However, SOSC has no accurate information about placement. MCA students are the most affected many have to take noncore placement offers. However, college also provides internships for students which are non-paid and last around 6 months. Rest the college is good for enjoying the mountains.

Absolutely satisfied with the faculty members and campus area.

Placements: Yes, there are a considerable number of students being placed at the university. However, the packages the students receive are not what they expect at the time of joining the law school. Recruiters like JSA, LKS, and Khaitan, etc., conduct interviews from the 9th semester onward.

The university is really well established and study is all good.

Placements: Almost 100% of students can get placement, but only if their academics are good and they have no active backlogs. The lowest package starts from 3 LPA and goes up to 18 LPA. Amazon and Google are some of the top recruiters. After the first year, all students get an internship in the Srijan internship program.

Overall it was fine but not what I expected from this college.

Placements: They have been promising us to provide 100 % placements since the beginning but the package is very low. Top recruiting companies are not so known. Only 10 from 100 students do get good placements. And not so many global opportunities are being provided.
