Dissatisfied because of management and infrastructure but has good placements in 2022.

Faculty: Some of the teachers were so good. They were so knowledgeable and very understanding. They were ready to listen to our problems and sliced them. But some teachers were not at all good. We never were able to understand what they were teaching. The course curriculum was not very relevant to biotechnology field. They mostly prepared us for IT companies.

College is really good in terms of education, and you'll even find lovable and entertaining friends.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, friendly, and brilliant. The semester exams are moderately difficult, and the grading is fair, with a passing percentage of 33% or 4 SGPA. In our major department, the teachers are especially motivating, encouraging students to do well both in college and in real life. Semester exams aren't too difficult if we start studying about a week before.

The course curriculum is based on the student's mindset and luck to get a job in the future. The English language is very important to learn.
