The program's fee structure includes a semester fee of Rs 15,020, totaling around Rs 1,15,000 for the entire course, which is affordable for middle-class students.
Scholarships are available for SC/ST categories and some for girls, but limited for general students. Placement opportunities are limited, with a low on-campus placement rate of 5%. Notable recruiters include Wipro, Infosys, TCS, and Accenture, with Wipro offering a stipend of 15,000 INR. The highest salary package reported is 40,000 INR, with an average of 25,000 INR.
