The civil engineering department consists of approximately 20 faculty members catering to a class of 71 students, maintaining a faculty-to-student ratio of about 1:5. This department, led by Dr. Bhishma Singh, offers a four-year course with two semesters each year, combining internal assessments and external exams. A minimum of 40% is required to pass. The faculty-student relationship is generally positive, although there are some concerns about approachability and inter-departmental politics.
Notably, the chemistry department has faced student dissatisfaction due to strict examination practices. Regarding placements, Mechanical, Electronics, and Computer Science departments have better outcomes, with an average salary package of 5 lakhs, peaking at 11 lakhs. About 10% of students achieve placements, with on-campus packages between 2-4 lakhs and off-campus opportunities reaching 26-27 lakhs. Companies such as BHEL, Amazon, TCS, and L&T regularly participate in recruitment, and around 50-60 students secure jobs in prominent firms annually.
Final-year students also have opportunities with companies like Microsoft and Google. The college's fee structure is relatively affordable, with tuition fees ranging from INR 30,000 to INR 37,500 per semester and annual fees between INR 64,560 and INR 105,000. Hostel and mess fees are around INR 18,000 per semester. Scholarships are offered through the NSP program, providing up to INR 50,000 per semester to students from families with incomes below INR 1.5 to 2 lakhs.
Tuition Fee Waivers (TFW) reduce fees to approximately INR 12,000 annually for eligible students. Additional scholarships are available for ST, SC, and OBC categories, while merit scholarships offer INR 4,000 to the top 5% of students per department.
