The salary of a person who was placed through the college internship was Rs.12,000 per month, and from our search for the job, our salary was Rs.15,000 per month.

Infrastructure: Basic infrastructure was established when I was pursuing my study of bachelors and labs were not so comfortable to work with, and classrooms are a bit okay to take classes. The campus was very small, and we won't get college atmosphere in the college, but friendly staff members. There are no outdoor games in college.

Faculty: The faculty members were not very good to take the classes, and the timetable was never followed when I was studying. The teaching methods were basic methods. I did not get any industry experience at all through the college, and my course was gaming in India, and there is no value for gaming.
