How is Government Engineering College, Kannauj?

My cousin used to be a student of Government Engineering College, Kannauj. Part of the construction of the college has been halted since 2016 due to a change in government. Even though minor improvements have been done, the infrastructure has more or less been the same since 2016. Some of the pros of the college are: Most of the faculty in the college has degrees from IITs, NITs, and even from IIITs. The faculty always guides and motivates its students. The faculty helps in assignments like thesis, researching paper or reading journal, participation in Hackathon and in international conferences. For CSE, ECE, and electrical branches, there are up-to-date lab facilities. The libraries have ample textbooks and reference books of international publication. They deal with subjects of various branches. The canteen provides you with snacks as well as heavy meals. There is also an SBI ATM on the campus. The cons of the campus are: The college lacks proper infrastructure and there is only one building in the college where all the labs are. The classes are also held in the same building. No facility for transportation from the college. WiFi facility is provided only on the first floor of the main building. It may be installed on the entire campus very soon. There is only one hostel for boys and girls respectively. A lot of the boys end up as paying guests at Tirwaganj at some local houses. There is no club activity in the college due to the zero presence of seniors during holidays and free time. Till now, no company has ever visited the college, and placements are done off-campus or through pool campus. It would be a good idea if you do not opt for this college because the placement opportunities leave a lot to be desired.
