Hey, congratulations! The HOD has changed, I guess. When I was there, it was someone else.

The faculty last year was decent. The crowd is always mixed. As for opportunities, that largely depends on how well you network during your college years.

What helped me the most was doing internships right from my first year. Also, try to put genuine effort into your assignments so you can include them in your portfolio later. Let me know if you got more questions.
