Cheap and best education in Coimbatore .

Infrastructure: Those 2 stars are for the course. For hostel zero stars. In classroom there is Wi-Fi, smart board, teach next, fan etc. Nice ventilation. Several complicated labs are present. Library is well stocked having vast collection of books Mess food is the worst. You probably should eat most of the time out. Hostel provides bare living facilities All kinds of sports are present.

Faculty: Only top teachers are appointed here. Faculty knowledge is deep. They are highly knowledgeable. They also want us to shine. Overall no complaints about teaching quality. Curriculum is bit old. Rote learning is followed. I don't know anything about mechanical technically. This course curriculum doesn't make us industry ready. Semester exams are difficult. Pass percentage is around 78%.

Other: Enjoy your life.

The teaching standard is good. The curriculum is not relevant. It is old. Semester exams are easy. The pass percentage is 87%.
