A good college in the neighborhood

It is easy to understand the infrastructure of the college by the mere fact that it is a deemed university now. The location is one of the major advantages, just outskirts of Delhi, in addition to good facilities, a very good staff and an approachable pri

The admission is through Haryana state level common entrance test in which I had scored enough to get admission in to computer science. The admission process is the standard process being followed across state colleges in Haryana.

There were the standard streams is electronics, mechanical, computer science, electrical engineering and architecture. The subjects were standards with hardly any electives in the same stream.

Internship and placements were 2 challenge areas for this college at that time. I am sure the situation would have improved now. The internship was mostly arranged on individual basis or through references.

I think only 2-3 companies had visited the campus that time. These were TCS, Wipro and CMC as far as I can remember. I think approx. 40% only were placed through campus.

College had a newsletter for technical information sharing. It held annual fest that was also sending invites to nearby colleges to participate in the cultural competitions. Sports day was celebrated on a large scale and teams were sent out to participate in events organized by other colleges.

There was no loan facility that I am aware of. With respect to scholarship there might be state level sponsorship that I am not aware of.

The infrastructure was good. The labs were new with mostly all equipment being available in adequate numbers for all the students to study and experiment. The computer lab was newly built and was great experience. It used to be open during night as well. Other labs were also good. The college had a very large grounds for various sports. The college was organizing various events at intra-college and state levels.

As far as I remember, there were adequate number of hostel rooms and these were individual rooms without sharing. The rooms were good sized and with enough lighting and air. The toilets were always short in number. The mess was large in size but the food

College seniors were helping if not very helping. 1993 was the last batch that had to go through the trauma of ragging, post that the college authorities were very strict against it and they used to have surprise checking every now and then to safeguard new students.

Exams were adequately placed and we never thought that we were always busy or always chilling out. so I think they were good.

This college had good faculty, not only in terms of number of staff but also the knowledge and skill of the staff. Being a state college the faculty was good and knowledgeable and approachable.
