Satisfied with placements

During our time admission was based on boards and there was a special round conducted for admissions through jee mains, one month after the opening of the college. The reservation criteria are 50% seats are reserved for inside Punjab students. The ones admitted through jee mains had to cope with their backlog of one month tho extra classes were scheduled for them.

The course curriculum is quite good, though the daily schedule is quite hectic as compared to the rest of the colleges. The faculty-to-student ratio is 1 faculty teaches about 300 students in lectures and 1 teacher teaches about 30 students in lab and tutorial sessions. Faculty members are PhD qualified. MST and EST were between a gap of a month.

Internships are of two types summer and for CSE students 8th semester onwards. The stipend of internships is provided like 30000 - 40000. Internships are for both techs as well as non-tech profiles. But mostly they are of a tech background.

Companies like Optum, JP Morgan, Deshaw, CISCO etc are companies that come to campus for internships and placements. The overall average package offered is 800000 on campus. The students are eligible for campus placements and internships from the 6th semester onwards.

The fees are very high like 500000 annually hostel fee excluding and the hostel fee is about 100000 annually.

All types of sports faculty are available on campus like lawn tennis, cricket, basketball, badminton, swimming pool etc. Sports are extracurricular activities are quite good. There are a lot of Clubs on the campus which helps in the overall development of students and also helps in interaction.

The hostels of first year are not so good. First years usually are given NON AC hostels and they are very compact and conditions are also not so good. A lot of problems are faced by first year student in hostels. But from second year onwards hostels are quite good. AC Hostels are alloted from second year onwards and the rooms are also spacious. Mess food is not good, the mess food is too much oily. In first year hostels are alloted on the basis on PCM percentage in class 12th and from second year onwards the hostels are alloted on the basis of cgpa.
