Faculty

Most of the Faculties have Degrees from well reputed Colleges around India and few have from Foreign Institutes too. Everyone have different teaching techniques and they use smart board sometimes for teaching. The faculty to student ratio is around 1:40 as one teacher sometimes teach 2 branches.. Teachers respond to our online messages and are ready to solve our doubts during their free time. Additional to teaching about academics they even motivate us about the opportunities that we get during our B.Tech and also the difficulties.. They even act as mentors too during our bad times.

Placement Experience:

Placements are not that good. Although companies come, there is a lack of mass recruiters or reputed organizations. One has to grind hard here for placements. If you're a CS student, you will have to face immense competition here. As for core branches, placements are severely dry. Students gets eligible in 4th year onwards for placements. Some of recruiters here are Trident, TCS, Reliance, Sonalika and other few. Every company offers around 10-15 selected students for a job. Highest package ever was 15LPA and average is 3.2LPA. Percentage placed is only around 15% here. My plans after the degree are to apply for govt exams.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The interest in coding influenced me to choose this subject and course. The curriculum gets me ready for a 9-5 job which kind of gets hectic. The teachers could maybe schedule classes to give the students time to study what they want to and if they wish to do a course outside the university they have the time to do so rather than just going by the university curriculum
