Remarks :
My admission was through jee main. So the cutoff for this branch goes quite high like around air 1000-2000. Other than that the application process is pretty streamlined and once you score high enough in jee mains you can get this branch in the college by applying appropriately. In addition to applications through jee mains, there are other ways to apply to this college for students in other streams like commerce and humanities. The cutoffs for those applicants are a bit more relaxed.
Course Curriculum Overview :
The course curriculum is pretty modern. Unlike major colleges in India like IITs, NITs, etc., students are not required to study physics, chemistry, or math courses in their freshman year. All major and upcoming tech domains have courses that the students can take as electives as and when they want. There are no attendance criteria for 97% of courses. The student-faculty ratio is course dependent for example for a core course for my branch the ratio may be as low as 20 students per teacher and the ratio for a common course may be as high as 100 students for a teacher. However, all the professors and TAs have a lot of office hours in which the students can go and clear doubts. The dates of the exams are fixed for a semester and the difficulty depends on the course. In addition to exams, most courses also have assignments and project work. The date of submission for these is variable though and may even be extended if many students face difficulties in them.
Internships Opportunities :
Most companies like fang, Microsoft, LinkedIn, etc., and startups come to the campus for hiring. The companies offer varied stipends, also the process of selection for different companies is different. The roles offered are also varied according to the requirements. Some companies hire for a sde role, others may require a full-stack developer, etc.
Placement Experience :
Students become eligible for internships after their 4th semester which is after the 2nd year. After 3rd year they become eligible for placements. The highest country package was recorded to be around 50lpa, and the overseas highest was around 53lpa. The average package for B.Tech was around 22lpa. Most students get placed and the rest start startups using the college's incubation cell.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
Every year according to the policy, the fees may hike by 5-10%. Though this has not happened recently due to Covid. Students can avail of scholarships. Students can also opt for becoming teaching assistants for a stipend or credits. However, for becoming a teaching assistant the student must have scored at least a GPA of 8 in the said course.
