Remarks

Good thing about my college is teachers are good and helpful to every student and bad thing is that no any placement happen in my college.

Entrance Preview

I gave AIEEE exam but didn't get good score Because i am not good at that time,when i study in 12th i have some serious problem thats why i am not able to score good marks.

Course Curriculum Overview

I choose b.tech from electronics and communication engineering because i want to explore myself.this course help me a lot in my entire career. my college was very good at that time and learn a lot my college.I learn everything in theoretically and also in practical.

Internships Opportunities

I got 74.40% overall in my b.tech career but no any company visited in my college.so my college not able to provide any internship to any student.

College Events

2.5

In my college various types of events is organised by faculty and students.like freshers party,mata ki choki and also sports events.freshers party held once in a year and it happens when senior student collect funds with their pockets and organised well. Jagrans or mata ki chowki and sports event was funded by management.

Fee Structure And Facilities

At my time fees structure was 1.5 lakh for college and hostel Which is very expensive.70% student studied through loan and scholarship. there are also very strict fine for attendance and library.fees is very expensive so every time problem occurs in exam because college never give permission to take part in exam. So its very painful for many student.

Fees and Financial Aid

No college not offered any scholarship to me because I study my college with my fees only.but many student got scholarship from his state government. College helps them to take that scholarship from there.

Campus Life

3.5

I enjoyed my campus life because i have very good friends and also got very good faculty.there are many sports played in my college like cricket,basketball,volleyball.i love my college because it always held various program like fresher party,jagrans,sports event.

Hostel Facilities

I started my b.tech from 2011 and i stayed in hostel.i got room with 2 other boys,everyone has its separate lockers so this is good to save our stuff. hostel was very clean at my time. facility is also good because mess is available in hostel so no food is needed from outside.I stay almost 2 years in hostel then i live in flat which is nearby from college.

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

Yes my senior are very good because they help me in every situation. I got my books from my senior and also they teach me about tricks for good marks in my exam.

Exam Structure

my examination is always challenging because i study one night before exam and got very good marks in every single subject.I got good marks because of group discussion. My examination was held on every six month.there are also unit test held in my college. Lab was always boring for me but i attend all my lab because i learn practical knowledge there.

Likes

Events are more frequent here and most of the stars from punjabi industry are called more often for film promotions
No ragging is there infact seniors are friendly and try to help juniors
TPP (training and placement program) is provided that help students to crack placements

Dislikes

Attendance criteria (minimum 75 % is essential to maintain to be eligible to give exams)
Class timings are fixed from 9:15 to 4:35 and you can not enter in between 10 to 12:00 PM as gates are closed for this duration
Strength is rapidly increasing as new courses are introduced which increases competition during placements

Placement Experience:

Placements are decent, from 6th semester students become eligible for campus placement students need to enroll in TPP(Training and placement program) in order to get eligible for campus placement, Many companies visit our campus for eg Capgemini, LNT, ZSCALER, EDIFECS, AMAZON, PWC, WATCHGUARD TECHNOLOGIES etc overall above 200 offerrs are made to our senior batch with the highest package of 32LPA and average package of around 4.5LPA. more than 60% of students get placed .

College Life is Fun, Various activities and events happen in and around college, you got to know about others and crowd is also decent, Mostly Students are from northern regions that is Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand .
Teachers are good and placement coordinators also help students to get good package on campus. a decent package can be bagged by a student if he/she seriously study and obtain a decent CGPA in exam. Make sure you clear all exams till 8th semester.
Infrastructure Is also good, laboratories are fitted with new desktops and campus size is also decent, Tuck shops and various Canteens are available inside the campus. Also Central Library is there inside the campus where students can study in exam t

Dislikes

The curriculum for 1st and 2nd semester is purely based on subjects that you studied in 11th and 12th, the advance versions of those topics are there in 1st and 2nd semester which make it difficult for students to get good grades.
The placement in other branches like Mechanical, electrical is mere, and one can face difficult in getting on campus placement if he/she belongs to these streams. Also Lack of practical knowledge is there in these streams, Theory is more focused.
If one opt for hostels, then the hostel facilities are not as good as it should be , the mess food is pathetic and one can face difficulty if he/she opt for hostel, also campartively hostel fees are also very high, whereas nearby Pg's are cheaper

Placement Experience:

placement is good in our college. Aveage package is 400000, and average package for cse stream is approx 500000. Various companies like alstom, infosys, accenture, TCS, Wipro, amazon, Walmart, JP Morgan chase and co. etc visit campus every year and recruit students. Approx 300+ companies visit campus and above 80% of cse students are placed but In other streams like ECE.EE and ME etc placements are campartively lower and students face difficulty in order to get placed. MY plan is job oriented i also want to get placed on campus and hope so i will get placed in a good company.
