Academics

The teachers are well qualified, with many of them having Ph.D.s from renowned world universities. Their teaching is quite good. The curriculum is quite relevant and there are some things that need to be done to improve its relativeness to the current industry. The semester exams are normally quite hard and the fact that all the students are IITians who are graded relatively makes it even harder.

College Infra

We have 24/7 Wi-Fi everywhere on the campus. Classrooms are very sophisticated with air conditioning. We have a vast library with a lot of books and air conditioning too. The college conducts many events related to sports and games. Food in the hostel mess is above average.

Placements

Around 80% of people get placed through CDC and the remaining people get their jobs off campus. The highest package in my department was 62 lakh per annum and the average was 20 lakh per annum. The top recruiting companies were Nomura and other consulting firms.

It has a very developed academic culture, students from core branches can learn a lot as teachers provide real world knowledge and for that the machines and other equipments are present. I think you will get a job easily if you give 2-3 hours a day to develop skills.
