What Students Say?

Our campus is trying to ther best to bring companies to our campus for students they are encourage every student to apply for all the interviews which are coming to our campus for recruiting the students.
There is a monthly test for every month.and best of the two monthly test marks will be added to the semester marks.
I like the faculty as all of them are from IITs and NITs and have an excellent teaching skills
The tech fests are one of the best they Provide the relief from all the academics
Friends Jahnavi and Lavanya and Rohini and Vidya and Teju are my best friends
The way neatness and hygiene followed by college management is just awesome
And the faculty behaviour with the students is also very impressive

Dislike

Our college is only for Bachelor of Technology. The academics are outdated with a strict curriculum that has not been updated. Therefore, we are still learning old concepts. Additionally, the faculties lack experience.
They provide information regarding internships, but these are bond-based, i.e., lack of choice because one is forced to work in a particular company for a very long duration.
When it comes to the fee structure, students from poor backgrounds will receive scholarships from the government, while children of government employees will have to pay the fees.
There were 6 messes with different contractors. The meal quality is medium. The hostel and mess are on campus, so you dont need to search.
There are bad remarks, but the problem of money looting management exists everywhere, not only here in my campus. This is the issue with every college/university in India.
