Galgotias University B.Tech Review By Yash Priyadarshan

Galgotias University has strong placements and offers great opportunity for coding. The faculties are knowledgeable. The infrastructure is decent, but facilities needs better maintenance. I can say that I have little issue with overcrowding at the people level.

I will rate academics as pretty good. The subjects like AI and Web Development have definitely influenced my choice to pursue this course. It prepares us graciously for real-world jobs, but I think we need more hands on project and maybe some guest lecturers from industry folks. A little more focus on practical skills would help a lot. There are 2 exams, mid and end term exam with 2 internal assessments. About 75% of students pass, and the exams are manageable if you stay regular.

Most of the teachers are approachable and helpful. The best faculties I have had are those who really explain concepts and encourage discussions. The teachers rushed the syllabus and we couldn't understand the basics well. Though, they can work over taking more time to explain the concepts more deeply.

The placements at Galgotias are quite good overall. Students become eligible for campus placements in the 6th semester, which gives us time to build our skills. Companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, and Accenture frequently visit, and there are usually a good number of offers made each year. The highest package last year was around 30 LPA from a big tech firm, while the average package was about 5-6 LPA. I’d say around 80-85% of students get placed, which is pretty encouraging. As for my plans after graduation, I'll be looking to land a job in software development for about 2 to 3 year to recover from financial conditions and then to pursue a master’s degree in a specialized area like AI or Data Science if I get opportunity. I want to keep learning and growing in the field, no matter which path I take.

Bed, table, chair, almirah and Wi-Fi are provided by hostel management. The thing about campus hostel is that you can bring whatever you want. There is no restriction for electricity usage. There are 9 floors in the in campus hostel and each floor has a common room with games like snooker, table tennis, etc. Mess food in average.

Facilities and infrastructure are top-notch, featuring state-of-the-art technology and modern equipment such as digital boards, projectors, Wi-Fi, and computers. The canteen is overpriced. On a positive note, sports facilities are good, including a basketball court, volleyball court, badminton court, cricket net, football ground, etc. The library is well-stocked with a good range of books and journals, making it easy to find resources for projects and assignments. Classrooms are equipped with technologies like projectors and smart boards, which help make learning more interactive

Experience with campus life at Galgotias has been pretty great. There’s a vibrant social scene, especially during events like Prarambh (the official fresher’s party) and various film promotions or star visits throughout the year. We also have annual festivals like G-Quasar and Techfest and several Hackathon, usually held in September and March. There are student-run clubs for coding, robotics, and arts, which really enhance the campus experience and sense of community.
