In our college, the fee is very low because it is a government college and good people are teachers.

Placements: Placements are fully organised by our college alumni, and it is highly rated. Top MNCs do not visit the college for placements. Some top companies like Zoho, Titan, etc., visit the college. Not everyone in our course is placed, and some students are not placed. There are no 100% placements in our college.

Infrastructure: Our college is one of the oldest engineering colleges in India, so the infrastructure is a little old. There is a separate place for all departments, including the office and a placement building. We have an open auditorium, a big hall with an LED display, and many buildings, which were contributed by our alumni.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and qualified. Some teachers are PhD holders. They are skilled and knowledgeable. Now, all over Tamil Nadu, all engineering colleges are following the course curriculum, so there is no need to worry. We have exam centers in our college. Exams are conducted strictly, and evaluations are done within our college.

Other: I chose electrical and electronics engineering at this college to study. Teaching many basic knowledge like wiring, preparing electrical components like a fan, TV, and other home appliances would be helpful. Yearly, we conduct department symposiums, sports day, cultural, and other club fests.

Coaching satisfies the fee we pay.

Placements: The average placement action was done at the campus. The salary package was moderate, which was high enough for students looking for 5 PA to 10 LPA. The minimum package was 2.8 LPA, the moderate package was 3.4 LPA, and the highest package was 6.5 LPA.

Infrastructure: There was a busy schedule for academics, so students were not allowed to participate in extracurricular activities like sports and events. The mess had a very small setup, and dining lounges. Finally little bittight security system at the college campus area. There was also heavy competition between other colleges in examination results and placements.

Faculty: Teachers were harsh and impolite in their words but not in their actions; they had broad knowledge oriented to their subject specifications. Teachers planned to conduct three internals, two models, and some other regular tests to give good overall results in academics.

M.E. in environment engineering, 2020.

Placements: Roughly half of the students from this class got offered. And few of them are looking for other jobs. Training for placements would be started from the pre-final years. Only a small amount was charged for placement training. The pay scale would be dangerous between 2.5 LPA to 5.1 LPA depending upon the company.

Infrastructure: It did not provide extraordinary facilities for students but it was a secured one. Other than college transportation, it supports students for public transportation too.

Faculty: We were often involved in the field works and workshops arranged by teachers. Teachers had higher level of experience and supremacy in their respective fields. Higher potential teachers suggest how to present various ideas related to our core. Teachers know how to present a paper during semester to secure good grades.

Other: It helps students get scholarships for fee payments and their expenses.
