College Infrastructure
Yes, necessary facilities are available except water supply in washrooms, no adequate drinking water, not well maintained equipment. Living space is clean and hygienic sometimes it gets messy on the rainy days.
Academics
I am studying Btech in Computer Science because it is demanded now a days everywhere and even i was interested in studying computer related work. In the first semester we studied math, engineering drawing and many other things which had no connection to computers, so the curriculum is not updated.
Placements
Quality of placements is average, some students are even placed in top firms such as Huwaei, Cognizant and few others. Average package was around Rs 4,00,000 per year. Placement placement was not pleasant at all as we had to go to other colleges for getting placed in many companies.
Value-for-money
Our college is both public and government institute so the fees is same as many other private colleges, and i don't fell it to be worth at all in return of the services we get and various other facilities which could be provide are not there.
Campus Life
Campus life was great, best features were weather which was pleasant most of the time, worst could be monkies present there. It is a popular nuisance in Shimla, lots of monkies are present there. Location is also good and its safe as well.

College Infrastructure
Necessary facilities were available, as our batch was the first batch to start our session from the new building, otherwise there was an old building where no space to accommodate all the students was available. Our college was neat and well maintained, there could be more facilities and equipment which would increase the ratings of experience there.
Academics
Academics was very poor, in the beginning good teachers used to teach us which were the permanent faculty of the college but most of the guest faculty was not serious about their work, few were their who were good at what they did but not all of them.
Placements
A lot of students gets placed so the number of placed students is high almost everywhere, and the average would be around 4 lac per year. Highest salary offered in my knowledge is 8 lacs per year but it is possible for it to vary in the history of Uiit, now even its name is change to UIT.
Value-for-money
Fees was high and did not felt it o be worth at all, one good thing was the friends which i got there but regarding education it is not a good place to be in our time of college.
Campus Life
I enjoyed a lot in the campus, students used to hang in ares of attic, computer labs and engage themselves in newspaper reading as there were lot of newspaper available while entering the library. Location was great also there were lot of monkies all around the place.

College Infrastructure
College infrastructure was average, facilities like smart classrooms were there but they were not used at all, and were used only by students at the time of technical fest. No own sports center was there, and a combined ground for the complete university was provided by HPU. But things were neat and clean and not very well maintained.
Academics
I was studying Btech. in Information Technology, and the quality of teaching was below average only few teacher were there who seriously used to teach something otherwise most o them were no serious at all. Also the curriculum is not updated and we used to study previous technologies.
Placements
The number of students who gets placed is high but the quality of firms they get themselves is not that high. Some students also gets placed in companies like Infosys, Wipro and many other. And the average package would be around 3.5 lacs per year.
Value-for-money
As our institute was self financed and is also a government institute so, the fees was like any other private college, but the facilities were not. Now a days a lot more trades are added like mechanical, Civil and electronics.
Campus Life
Campus life was great and the best part of college life but campus was not huge though, attics was my favorite place to spend time with friends where many practices took place of fests and we enjoyed a lot. Staff was also very friendly.

Yes, almost all the necessary infrastructure, and facilities were available except few such as no adequate water supply, on the rainy days it gets a little messy. LIBRARY is also there, computer lab is also equipped.
Academics
Academics is not up to the mark as I expected it to be, teachers should be more serious regarding the studies, they are there just for the sake of their own attendance. I don't think curriculum is updated at all.
Placements
Quality of Placement is average as compared to many other similar colleges. Some students are even placed in top firms such as Infosys, Wipro, Tcs. Placement process was not so pleasant as we had to wait for the whole day and we even had to go to other college campuses.
Value-for-money
Fees is way too high as compared to other college government colleges. As our institute is self financed the fees we pay used to pay teacher's Salary. I don't feel that we are getting our money's worth.
Campus Life
Campus Life could be the best part of the college life as the view is amazing from some parts of the college building, attic was the best part where all the practices took place of fest and many other activities. Teachers and staff were quite friendly and helpful.

Necessary equipment and facilities are available, we have started our course in the new building, earlier UIIT used to be in just one building which i have heard is not evem sufficient for the complete batch to accommodate. So,as per current condition we have got great facilities.
Academics
I am studying BTech in computer science, and quality of teaching could improve, there are teachers whose teachings goes above my head, and same is the case with my many friends. But still there are few teachers who teach with great interest and allows us to educate ourselve.
Placements
Placements have been average, many students have registered job in various different companies with an average package according to me of Rs 400000. Placement process was not very pleasant, we had to spend our whole day.
Value-for-money
Fees is way too much high because in any other government institute fees is low but our college is also government with fees like private colleges. So overall money is not worth in return of the services we get.
Campus Life
Best features about the campus were its weather, pleasant surroundings, good friendly staff. Worst could be no canteen facility, no adequate water supply.

I don't think that our college have all the necessary infrastructure, facilities and equipment. Library have got no useful book and its not a smooth process to issues a book from library, also there's things missing, no complete work is done in washrooms. No separate sports ground is there.
Academics
There are only one or two teachers who teach sincerely and rest of them are just to pass there time, and do not have relevant skills to indulge students in the teaching. Curriculum is not updated and we study all the previous technology.
Placements
Quality of placements is okay and about 65% of the students are placed in companies, but college always enhances its same record to impress the new admissions but its not the case. Average package is around Rs.4,00,000 per year.
Value-for-money
Fees is way too much high as it is an government institute, and still we pay a fees as if we are in private institute. Also after paying this much fees in the name of Sports meet, annual say celebration we do not get facilities as per paid fees.
Campus Life
Campus life was great, friends are one of the best things which i miss the most. It is the only thing which is true there. Weather is amazing and also unpredictable. It may rain any time there and also monkeys are also a menace.

Yeah, almost all the infrastructure is there except few things which either don't work or don't exist like curtains in smart board classrooms also taps in washrooms don't have water in them, but is all fine and we all worked with the available facilities.
Academics
Academics is way worse than any institute, all things have to understood by our own, it seems that we have to study every thing in order to just pass the exam not to enhance our skills, and we make ourselves job ready, institute don't help a bit in that.
Placements
I don't know how students manage to get placed in top companies with an average package of around 3.5lacs per year. Placement process is easy and any student who is decent and confident could go through it easily.
Value-for-money
Fees is almost same as any private institute and the services we get are not the same in return. They say that our institute is self financed so its fees is way too high than any other government institute.
Campus Life
Campus life was fun, i enjoyed a lot in those those days, those were the golden days. There was a canteen named PInk Petals where we used hang a lot, it have got decent food not 5 star rated but its worth.

The college had overall a good infrastructure, well maintained classrooms and laboratories but with the locks hanging on their doors. WiFi is not so good but the internet facility is best in the laboratories. Living spaces are cleaned and hygiene is maintained properly on regular basis.
Academics
Teachers are good but the bitter truth is there is no proper classes for students. Hardly the half of the syllabus was covered during over time. Students had to do own their own. College must have the proper time table and all. But this college don't.
Placements
The placement in this college is worst part. The campus placement is nearly NIL. Students had to go to other colleges for placements. Their is no internship in 7th semester. Only made recruitments are done.
Value-for-money
The fees is unnecessarily so high and nearly equal to private colleges. Every year the fees are raised. Even there are no hostel facilities for the btech department. The fees in this college is really a worst part.
Campus Life
Campus life is the best part of this college. The neighboring areas are beautiful. It is surrounded with the best natural sceneries and tourist spots. Enjoy chai with aalo pranthas at the local vendors.
Anything Else
I would like to say one last thing. This college is not good for educational purposes. Go for other better colleges.

Now there's a new building but when I was in college there was this old building in which there was no space for all the classes to study at the same time, we had to schedule the time table accordingly so that one class at a time can accommodate. Building was not even maintained properly, but it was very long time ago and now the whole perspective of UIIT has changed as its name has also changed to UIT.
Academics
Nobody cared about academics and even teachers were there to just kill there time but some of them i remember. Even curriculum was not even updated and nobody bothered to study. Its not good to say bu it is the truth.
Placements
Placements was also not very fine but still students managed to get placed in various companies which was nit expected of them because of the background which UIIT have. Now all the things have changed so don't know much about now.
Value-for-money
Fees was also very low and yeah it was still worth, because i learned a lot of things there personally. Don't remember the exact figures but it was around 30k per semester.
Campus Life
This was the best part about the college, HPU as a complete was a campus to us and we used to roam from one end of the shops to the other just in order to kill the tie. The weather was always nice better than many other places.

Yes, college have all the necessary infrastructure, and facilities like library, computer labs are also available. There is no hostel facility for our college, there are smart board in classrooms with no curtains on windows. Living space is clean.
Academics
I am studying B.tech in Information Technology because i was interested in it. Quality of teaching is just about fine and no extraordinary talent is there in our faculty. But they all are very helpful and allows us to solve our queries.
Placements
Many students are placed and every batch has almost same scenario as most students gets themselves placed. About 70-80% of students are placed in almost every batch I have heard of with an average package of around 4lacs per yar.
Value-for-money
Don't remember the exact amount but it was around 1lac per year. Yeah it was worth paying that much money.
Campus Life
Best feature was the weather which was provided by the beautiful Shimla and the worst could be washrooms where there no water. Students engage in reading newspaper, surfing internet and stuff like that.
Anything Else
It was great.

Yes, college have all the necessary facilities. Library, computer labs are equipped with enough books and advanced computers respectively. Classrooms are a equipped with smart board display which is used by teachers for teaching digitally. There was no canteen until this last year but thee is also a canteen at attic.
Academics
Academics have not been that good, as expected by some students, but i have heard from many of my friends who are other colleges that even they have to study themselves at the end of the day. Same is the case with our college, but some teachers put in quite the efforts for teaching students.
Placements
Quality of placements was not outstanding but it was okay overall. Most of the students gets placed in companies as the end year come near by. Off campus placements are more reputed one's as top firms don't come at our college.
Value-for-money
Course costed around 80-90k per year. There was no hostel facility so there's more spending on residence if you come from out of town. There are lots of pg's in that case. Yeah i guess money worth.
Campus Life
Campus life was fun, had to be, most of the students would say the same as we all enjoyed a lot in those days. Atmosphere was great, there were no fans in our institute as in every household in shimla.

College infrastructure was not that brilliant but it was okay as almost all the necessary equipment were there such as smart boards in classrooms, cameras were also there. Fire alarm system was also there for detecting fire. Library and computer labs were also there. Overall necessary things were there but they could have been more warmly maintained.
Academics
It seemed that teachers just came to spend there time sometimes, just for the sake of attendance of their own but some teachers used to teach very efficiently and provided a clarity about the subject or the topic which is being taught.
Placements
About 80-90% students of our batch are placed in companies which arrived at our campus for recruitment process. In some cases students even had to go to other college campus for getting placed in reputed companies. The average package was around 4las per year.
Value-for-money
Our institute was a self-financed government institute so most of the programs which were organised such as Annual Meet, Fest, Sports Meet were with the help of the fund which we have provided and also with which government had given so, I guess it was worth the money which we paid in return of the experience I had.
Campus Life
Campus life was great, the most amazing part about UIIT was that we were like a family, it was a small institute and almost everybody knew everybody. The atmosphere was all good and staff was also very helpful and kind.

College don't have all the necessary facilities, there's no water supply in washrooms, no lighting conditioning available in smart classrooms. Sometimes there's no space for students to accommodate themselves because there are already students sitting in labs.
Academics
Teachers are not disciplined at all, they are not serious about their work and do not even teach well. Some of them are quite good at their work and teach well also. But mostly all of them are quite friendly except few of them.
Placements
Placements are good as many students of our college gets placed and many small scale companies come to our college for placement. All the top companies do not come to our college as our campus is small and have only around 150 students to select from.
Value-for-money
Don't remember the exact figures but it was not worth in return of the services we get. Our fees is used to pay the teachers as their salary and many other functions are organised on the same fees which we pay which are not good.
Campus Life
The whole Summer Hill are was like a campus to me as our original campus was not that big to isolate our group in privacy. But the preparations were done in college only like gaming, fest events etc.

College infrastructure was overall good. Classrooms were equipped with smart board display but there were no curtains. There's a new building which is also being used now a days. Three more streams of engineering were added to the various courses provided by the college. Yes laboratory is also there and a library too.
Academics
Academics could have been more effective and it is not the same as expected by the new admission. All the teachers are helpful but not that good at teaching still there are some who are quite good at there job and allows to educate ourselves regarding the subjects in detail.
Placements
There comes a lot of companies in our college for recruitment process but the most reputed one's which are very exceptional in their field do not arrive at our campus but the students had to go to other campus for getting through the process. Students go placed in companies like Cognizant, TCS, Infosys, Wipro with an average package of around Rs. 3,80,000 per annum.
Value-for-money
The money we pay is also used for fest, sports meet and in organizing many other events. We pay around Rs 90,000 per year and the services we get are not worth the money we pay according to me personally.
Campus Life
It was amazing, i have made good friends. As our campus is in Shimla and it has got its own charm and beauty. The weather is amazing and allows us to spend our time even outside the campus. The whole are was like campus to us.

College does have all the necessary infrastructure. Facilities like smart board displays in classroom and computer laboratories which are necessarily equipped, also the internet connection is brilliant. Library is also available and there is also a state library available in the University.
Academics
I am pursuing B.Tech in Information Technology, and the quality of teaching is not that adequate as one expect while get admission in the college. Few teachers are there who teach with great interest but most of the others are not at all interested in teaching.
Placements
Most of the students gets placed in companies in which they wanted to be, this is unexpected as quality of teaching is not up to the mark. This shows that students prepare by themselves and gets themselves placed. Most of the reputed companies were off campus placements and also thee were companies which visited the college.
Value-for-money
The course costed around 1lac per year. No, I did not felt that my money is worth in return for the services we get. It could have been clearly better.

Best feature about the campus were its atmosphere, weather was almost daily brilliant which made it peasant to visit the college daily. Teachers were quite supportive and also the staff was pretty friendly with the students.

Infrastructure is good, we have got two buildings which can consist all the recruited students. Earlier space was an issue because there was not enough space but now after another building have been build, this issue have been resolved. Also facilities like library,sports ground which one for the university, computer labs are available and fully equipped.
Academics
I am studying Information Technology because I was interested in it. Quality of teaching is not that outstanding but some of the teachers are too good at what they do. So its not that academics is an issue but it can be better.

Quality if placement is great as many students got placed in companies like Infosys, Cognizant but it was an off campus placement i.e. student have to go to other college's campus for getting placement in these companies. Also there were several companies visiting our campus too.
Value-for-money
There are many programs organised by our college as our fest named Utkarsh is quite famous in the locality and also events like sports meet, and other cultural activities are organised which creates a great overall experience.
Campus Life
Atmosphere is too good as weather of Shimla need no introduction, also the view is brilliant and allows us to enjoy the environment out there. I learned a lot in my college life and enjoyed the college life too.

Academics was not that outstanding, but it was okay and anybody i guess could work with it. Some teachers are quite enthusiastic about there job and some are not. Students have to see there work at there own mostly.
Placements
Placements are pretty good as most of my friends are placed in the respective companies. Students visit other college's campus for getting placed in comapanies like Infosys, Cognizant, TCS. Also there are companies like Grey B visit our campus for recruitment process.
Value-for-money
I have heard form many and believe the same that our institute is self financed institute and our approximately fees for a year is about 80-90k. And the facilities we get in return could be a little more better.

The best part about our college is campus life, i used to spend a lot of time at attic and the weather was beautiful most of the time. Our college's location have got a great view as it is situated in Shimla, Summerhil.

Academics
Teachers are quite enthusiastic in our college as there are 3 more new trades in our college available so the number of staff members have also been raised. There are also teachers who are not that serious about the studies but i guess everywhere there are teachers of this kind.
Placements
Placement have not been an issue in our college as students are quite brilliant and aware of the circumstances they study. Companies which are the best in their field such as Infosys, Cognizant and Tcs are the one in which students gets themselves placed but these companies did not arrives at our campus but we had to go to other college's campus.
Value-for-money
Fees is little high as per my opinion, also our institute is self financed institute so the fees we pay is the one used to pay the teachers. Average fees per year would be around 80-90k. Value for money could have been better.
Campus Life
Best part about the college was the weather and its location, as we all know the beauty of Himachal and Shimla. There were many instances which I loved the most such practice times of fests and roaming around the campus with friends.

Yes, my college have almost all the required infrastructure and equipment. There's projector in our class but no curtains are there at the windows which creates difficulty in watching the projected information. WiFi is the fastest in our college in the HPU theoretically and also practically. Yes, these facilities are often used and are well maintained. Also the living space is clean and there's newly inaugurated canteen which provide quality food.
Academics
I am studying Computer Science because i was interested studying in Shimla and also Computer Science has great scopes nowadays. Quality of teaching is about fine and can improve, surely there's room for betterment in academics. Yes i think curriculum was recently updated and includes the recent developments in the field. Yeah if we study sincerely we would be job-ready.
Placements
Quality of placements is good as many students were placed in companies like Infosys, Cognizant, TCS. These were the top companies from all the companies which arrived for recruitment. Also these companies did not arrived at our campus for placement but students had to got to other college's campus to participate in the recruitment process.
Value-for-money
Our course costed around 90 thousand approximately per year for general category students and it was very less for other categories of the students. No, i don't think that the money we pay is worth for all the money which we pay.
Campus Life
This was the best part about my college life, not only the college building but the whole area was like home, we used to roam there freely in the beautiful weather. Staff of our college is quite friendly and also belonged to our native places so it was nothing to be afraid of.

As I am in the !st year of my graduation so I have not yet considered placements for me but as i am informed by my seniors and at the seminar conducted by our college on the first visit, placements are quite good in our college. Most of my known seniors are also placed.
Value-for-money
People say that our college is self financed institute and due to which he fees is little high as compared to the facilities we get in return. I don't remember the exact figures of fees we pay but fees is payed per semester in our college.
Campus Life
I enjoyed my campus life as we come to meet various other students from all parts of Himachal Pradesh and come to know about the various different cultures of a single state, This part of our college is the i enjoyed the most going on attic with my seniors was also best part about the campus.
Anything Else
I have already said enough.

College Infrastructure
Yes my college have all the necessary infrastructure, facilities and equipment. Facilities such as projectors connected in the classroom, computer laboratory, and library is also available. But there is one issue and it is because of its location as it is in Shimla, the ground is common for the whole university.
Academics
I am studying Information technology because I was not getting admission anywhere else and it was also near to my home. Yeah i think our curriculum is updated recently and includes various new syllabus topics which we have to study.
Placements
Placements has been an amazing factor in our college, most of the students of the final year gets themselves placed in the respective companies. Average salary would be around 4 lac annually. Around 80% of the students are placed in my opinion.
Value-for-money
Our course cost around 45k per semester, these are not the exact figures but the is around these figures, our campus is self financed institute which means we pay the institute money and it pays the same money to the teachers.
Campus Life
I was not satisfied with the campus life around there much because there have been many instances with my other colleges friend who described their college as an amazing place to spend time, so my expectations were also of that kind which could not got fulfilled.
Anything Else
The weather was always the best part about the campus. But in the rainy days it also disturbed the whole daily routine.

College Infrastructure
My college is one of the best college, the most beautiful part about it was its location and its unpredictable weather. If you love to be with the nature its one of best part about our college. Now a newly constructed building is also being used which allows us with extra space.
Academics
As I am a studious student, I love to study in which I have gotten myself admitted so for me the academics was not that good, most of the things we had to clear them ourselves, so overall it was an okay experience.
Placements
The quality of placements is about average but also students got placed in companies like Infosys, Cognizant, TCS but we had to go to other college's campus for companies like these. There also comes companies in our college which are not that reputed.
Value-for-money
I don't remember how much did my course cost per year but it was something about 40k to 50k. Yeah it was worth paying that much money for the overall experience I had there at Shimla.
Campus Life
The best part about my campus is its weather but its not the campus which includes the campus but its weather which includes the college, also fest was one thing which i loved the most, we had many practices that are to be performed on the performance day.
Anything Else
No, nothing more to add.

College Infrastructure
In my experience it was nice but was not well maintained, water supply was not at all adequate, regarding the classrooms projectors screens were attached in each classroom, there is a new building being constructed. Its work is almost over and many classes started taking place in that building too.
Academics
I am currently studying computer science engineering and no the syllabus is not very well updated to the latest technology, I am great fan of new gadgets and there working so there was not better field than computer science.
Placements
Most of my mates are placed and some of them did not wanted to get placed but wanted to go in defense and further studies due to which they did not sit in the placements. But in my opinion the one's who wanted to get themselves placed almost everybody of them got placed.
Value-for-money
Self financed institute, fees is a bit high but was not that high to consider it as not worth of them money we are paying.
Campus Life
It was great, i used the fastest wifi connection in the university and used it to its core, games were also a fun part at the time of technical fest, and allowed me to pass my time.
Anything Else
It was great time, I miss that time a lot in the period of this lockdown.

My college's infrastructure is not that up to my expectations, but it not that bad as well, our classrooms are equipped with projectors which displays the content on the white board. Also the internet connection in our campus is fastest in the whole HP university.
Academics
I personally was not that interested in academics but also the students who wee interested in studies were not satisfied or overwhelmed with the facilities provided by the college, some teachers were quite enthusiastic about teaching and few were not.
Placements
Most of my friends are placed who wanted to get placed. In our college students got in companies like Infosys, Cognizant, TCS. All these companies did not arrived at our campus but we had to go to other college's campus.
Value-for-money
I have heard this from many students that our college is self financed institute that is it pays salary to its staff using our fees only, due to which fees is a bit high as compared to the facilities we get.
Campus Life
I enjoyed the campus a lot, there was computer laboratory in which i used to play Counter Strike, which was one best moments for me in the campus, also attic was one of my favorite places to visit in the college time where fest pratices took place.
Anything Else
I learned a lot from these 4 years of experience.

College Infrastructure
My college's infrastructure was very well constructed as it is situated in Shimla and Shimla itself is located on mountains, so things have to be constructed carefully. Regarding the classes, there were also up to the mark, connected with projector facility. So, overall it was good.
Academics
As we clearly know that academics depends on the teachers of the respective institute so in my college some teachers were quite enthusiastic regarding the teaching and few of them were not serious about the studies of students.
Placements
Most of batch mates are placed and even most of my known seniors were also placed so i would say that placements is not going to be a big deal if you sincerely want to be placed in my college. Only the ones' who did not want to get placed are the people who are not placed.
Value-for-money
Self-financed institute, great amount of fees is taken from students and the services which we get are not satisfactory as compared to the fees so there's your 3 rating.
Campus Life
Campus life was one of the best part of our college, we would love to spend time in attic of our college as many preparations were going on at the time of fest and many more things keeps going on in the campus.
Anything Else
Yeah it was a great experience, and would surely like to recommend this college.

College Infrastructure
College infrastructure was not as i expected it to be, but still it was enough to work with. Few things can be improved such water supply and others. Regarding the classes it was a nice experience, projector is there but no curtains around the windows, if there would be it would have made the day more great.
Academics
In my college academics is very good, teachers bother about students, there is flaw in it, very less extra curricular activities due to which overall experience is not that great, afterall we have to work with what we have got.
Placements
Quality of placements is not premium one, but still many respectable companies take students from our college like Infosys, TCS etc. Also these companies do not come to over campus, we have to go to other colleges' campus.
Value-for-money
The fees which our institute asks for is much higher than the facilities we get, also our institute is self-financed that is the fees which we pay is used for paying salaries to the teachers, and many other functions are organised with the help of fees we pay.
Campus Life
Campus life was also not that great, about its best and worst, computer laboratory was one of the best parts i loved about the campus and washrooms were the worst one.
Anything Else
It was a great experience.

College Infrastructure
My college infrastructure is great, I personally find it very amusing. We have two big buildings in which there are various cabins for various faculty and we allow ourselves to fell the vibes of Shimla. So, I find the infrastructure of our college very fine.
Academics
Academics could not match my expectations, as i expected it to be more creative and more involving but it was not. Few teachers do care about students and there future knowing the aspect that in what conditions we are studying.
Placements
Most of my colleagues are well placed in whatever company they wanted to be in spite of those teachers in our college. Average salary offered was about 4.5 lac, and yes placement process was easy and pleasant for me.
Value-for-money
Per year fees changed every year, it was high in the odd semesters and low in the even semesters. Also the fees was a bit high as our institute is self-financed institute.
Campus Life
I enjoyed my campus life, its location was one of the great factor why we could enjoy the campus life. The atmosphere, the environment there is quite pleasant, but it also gets irritating on rainy days.
Anything Else
I developed myself a lot during my college life so i would say it was great experience for me.

College Infrastructure
College infrastructure is about fine and not that fancy as other many institutes. But the amount of infrastructure now a days is not sufficient for the number of students present in this year's batch.
Academics
Teachers do teach with great enthusiasm keep only some of them in mind, also there's college library which is quite the help for get ourselves educated. Students have to study in order to pass the exams so there are also other methods for studying.
Placements
Placements is not an issue in our college, in order to get ourselves placed we need to find the right motivation. In our campus various different companies arrive to recruit students in there respective companies.
Value-for-money
Our institute is self financed and its not worth the money which we pay for getting ourselves into the institute.
Campus Life
Campus life was great, when you have great friends how your campus life can not be great. There are various spots around the campus which were great to visit as we live in Shimla and it has great atmosphere all around.
Anything Else
Overall my college life was great I would say, got myself placed, its is a great place.

College Infrastructure
The college infrastructure is fine not doubt at all. When you enter in a college, there is quite the space for the parking and as in Shimla if there's place to park your car, its a big deal and also there's a big computer lab too.
Academics
There are teachers who are not that well trained as others but its fine with us as even some students are that careful with there studies. Also there is staff which is very well trained and greatly capable of teaching the students.
Placements
Our college provides various opportunities for getting ourselves placed in various campus placements, one who is keen and willingly want to get themselves placed will surely get an placement in the campus drives.
Value-for-money
No, not upto the mark.
Campus Life
Various opportunities for spending our valuable time, and overall its quite good.
Anything Else
As per the location of our college it is quite good.

College Infrastructure
My college infrastructure is not that great but its even not that bad. Our classrooms are fixed with projector system which is used for displaying content which teachers have created for students, so overall we can work with the provided infrastructure.
Academics
Teachers in our college are not up to the mark I guess, some of them can be more supportive. Few of our teaching faculty is quite up to the mark and they show enthusiasm while teaching, but there are also teachers which are not serious towards teaching.
Placements
As our college has great history regarding placements and also have hundred percent placement in different batches. A lot of placement companies are invited in our campus which takes almost all the students who are interested and capable of getting placements.
Value-for-money
Our college is self financed college and the facilities which we get for the amount of fees we pay is not worth. This is what I think which would regard the value for money aspect for the purpose of giving a review.
Campus Life
This would be same in most of the cases of your reviews as campus life is the best part many individuals life, our college has also great campus life one can get himself involved for killing his or her time.
Anything Else
No, nothing more, I think I have already mentioned enough details that would be sufficient.
