I like my institute so much for the best environment.

Placements: The placements are so good, it is around 90% and the institute also helps in an internship programme during the third year of your college period. The top technical recruiters are Infosys and Tata. They also provide internships to non-circuital branches.

Infrastructure: The buildings of my institute, that is NIT Trichy, are so good and well structured, and the most important thing is that the greenery here is so good. The hostel is well-furnished and also provides Wi-Fi facilities, and the mess food is not that bad to eat.

Faculty: The teachers here are good and helpful, educated, and also friendly. The semester exams are not that tough, almost everyone who attended the class can pass, and the institute's curriculum is strict but helpful for students to learn things about real college life.

Other: I like programming.

Amazing college with decent facilities. But the climate is very hot and there is language barrier.

Placements: The percentage of placements in our course is really nice, it is more than (94)%. Nvidia, Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, Micron, Synapse, Google, Amazon, Oracle, TCS, Wipro, Bajaj, etc. (These are mixed companies for electronics, software, and electrical). Chip designer, electro manager, developed (to be honest, I don't know much about the role they offer). The highest and lowest salary is average.

Infrastructure: The facilities are not up to the mark. There are equipments in our lab, but very less in number, and that too sometimes does not work properly. We don't even have the basic facilities like water purifier, it's very hard for us to fill our water bottles from different hostels. We have good computer lab and library, but we don't have Wi-Fi in library. The quality is really nice, they provide amul butter, kellogg's corn flakes, fresh bread, and fruits (It varies from mess to mess, but overall quality is good). But North-Indians may not like the taste initially.

Faculty: EEE is the toughest branch. The curriculum is very vast and is not updated. We have to study many outdated things which are of no use. It's really very hard to manage the course with clubs and fest teams. Many times we have to select one of them. But, we have the advantage of having many options for placements as we have a very vast curriculum. I like the exam pattern, like CT1, CT2, at end-semester. I would say all the things depend on the proof.

Other: I selected the course because I like the electronics domain so much. We have a very good bond with our classmates as our course is very tough so, we are forced to do all assignments and projects together only. It should be updated, and the extra things should be removed to relax the students.

Classrooms are neat, and good seating facilities are available on the campus. There are all types of sports and training available.

Faculty: The teachers are helpful in giving quality teaching, and they help students grow. Their knowledge is awesome, their explanation are good and neat. The course is curriculum-related, and it makes students industry-ready. Some difficulties are the semester exams.

Absolutely wonderful campus life and alumni association, which will help you in a lot of ways.

Placements: Almost 75-80% of the students of the passing-out batch from my course got placed, the highest package is 33 LPA, while the averageis 10.3 LPA and the lowest is 6 LPA, almost everyone in the batch got good internships. The top roles are offered in software.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is pretty old but well-maintained. There is Wi-Fi facility in the hostel 24/7. The classrooms are well maintained. There is also a library with 1L+ books. Hostels are old too but well maintained. The mess food is decent. You will be able to see canteens and other shops near your hostel itself.

Faculty: Most of the faculty members are friendly, while some may seem a little strict. But every faculty member is well qualified. The curriculum is pretty much the same as all first years. There will be two cycle tests and one end-semester examination when we talk about exams and tests.

Other: The campus life here is great. There are a lot of clubs and fests which will help in your overall development and shape you as a better person. Name any common sport, and that will be here with proper courts and equipment.
