Based on the scores you get ranking.Being an average student I got decent score to get a rank of about 8000 post which I went through counselling process where you get to choose the college and course based on availability. Being a local boy I chose the college and the course was suitable for my interest.

There are individual project and viva in 7th and 8th semester.

Being a mid tier college witn average fees the placement offers are not many. However there are ample off campus taking place on behalf of BPUT university where the college can participate.
