    Academics

    The curriculum is very impressive even though it isn't updated to the current tech world. They focuses on the creative thinking side more. Also the faculties are very experienced and very knowledgeable.

    College Infra

    The college has all the necessary infrastructure for a Communication Design course. The library is a valuable resource, offering a good collection of design books, journals, and digital archives. However, access to international publications and updated materials could be enhanced.

    Placements

    Recent placement trends have been somewhat disappointing. In the past, students secured internships and jobs at well-known companies. However, in the last couple of years, the placement rate has dipped, and the quality of opportunities has been inconsistent. The placement cell is supportive, but there is room for improvement in building stronger industry connections and bringing in more recruiters with competitive salary packages.
