What Students Say

Likes

The peer group here is very healthy . The seniors are very helpful and respectful
Lush green campus and extremely clean campus
Classroom facilities and laboratories are very well designed

Dislikes

Hostels can be improved and can get air conditioned the whole college is air conditioned except the hostels
A separate ground should be allotted to cricket as football and cricket share a common ground

Course Curriculum Overview

Curriculum is really very good it has variety of courses from robotics to mechatronics to computer programming everything is there along with real life skills like english communication and environmental sciences which makes an overall personality

Class Size: 89Course Fees: INR 250000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Being a central government college there is no lack of oppurtunities many internships offers are provieded . Many comapnies come to hier interns and stipends are also good . mostly companies take interns and give them on site roles which helps them learn working skills

Placement Experience

placement percentages are extremely good 95% placements is no joke and in some branches they have touched 100% placement mark which is commendable and recently as student was hired at a package of 1.16Cr in Honk Kong but besides that average package can be improved

Fees and Financial Aid

i will be paying around 2.2lakhs per annum including everything hostel ,mess, registration etc. which is for a general candidate . the fees is very nominal and value for money for the quality they are providing . regarding scholarships there are a lot of oppurtunities for scholarship which the college itself notifies about

Campus Life

The fests are amazing may it be TECHniti or Dhavnai or Utkansh .The inter NITs sports meets are very regular .The clubs are ectremely active and they are a number of clubs which you can join . The libraries have a huge collection of books and a very nice online book issue system

Hostel Facilities

hostel facilities are at par but they can be improved in the near future mostly rooms are 4 sharing for 1st year so someone may take time to adjust but the rooms are spacious . the 2 sharing rooms are pretty small so thats an issue regarding the mess food some hostels have a very good quality food some are decent and some are below average so uniformity must be there

Hostel Fee: INR 20000 per year

Admission

I applied for IITs and some other NITs but my rank was not at par with the cutoffs and i ended up getting a seat here but this college was in my favourites' list.Regarding the admission process its all online from registration to even hostel allotment which eases the process

Faculty

Faculty has a variety of charecters some are very strict while others are extremely calm and helpful There are some faculty members which are like friends and teach very good but there are a few proffesors which are least bothered but thats not an issue as all colleges have this kind of variety

Night Life

in the 1st year the hostels are strict so there is no much nightlife outside the hostel but there are plenty of places there is a domino's inside the campus open air theatre is a very common spot among the studnets and it feels safe out 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.
