Review of Government College of Technology (GCT).
Placements: Placements at our college are quite low compared to the pre-pandemic years, and also the core companies are not showing much interest. 65% of students get placed. The highest package offered is 19 LPA by Texas Instruments, and the minimum package is 3 LPA. Internships are provided by the government and are also paid. In government, only 20% of students are selected. VLSI is the top role offered in our course.
Infrastructure: Since ours is a government college, so the infrastructure is not up to the mark. Our college has a good library, a little poor Wi-Fi connection, and pretty good labs. The quality of the food is okay for the amount they quote. Our college has the cheapest hostel and mess fees. It has a large ground, indoor stadium, and medical center. Moreover, all games are available here.
Faculty: Teachers of GCT are well-qualified and knowledgeable, while some staff members are not. Their teaching is pretty nice and understandable. The course curriculum is outdated, and it does not make students industry-ready. Semester exams are quite different, and the pass percentage will be an average of 80%.

Satisfied because of the good placement in 2025 and the low fee.
Placements: In the year 2024 batch, about 75% of students were placed in core and IT companies in the electronics and instrumentation engineering department. In the year 2025 batch, about 80% of students were placed in core and IT companies in the electronics and instrumentation Engineering department. The highest package is 32 LPA. The average package is 10 LPA. The lowest package is 3 LPA.
Infrastructure: There is free Wi-Fi available in the electronics and instrumentation engineering department. The virtual instrumentation lab has average computers. Other labs are very good in our department compared to other departments. There is a canteen available on the college campus not in the hostel. Hostel foods are below average. The hostel facility is average.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and knowledgeable in the electronics and instrumentation engineering department. The student's pass percentage is about 94% in our class batch of 2027 till this 4th semester. Semester exam questions are very different and moderate. Corrections are also very strict.

Best for placements but bad for hostel students (girls).
Placements: About 80% of students are placed each year. The highest package of CSE is 8.4 LPA, and the lowest package is around 2.4 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Zoho, Bosch, and Walmart. As we are CSEians, the role that we are getting after placed is software developer.
Infrastructure: College infrastructure is pretty good but the laboratories are poorly functioning and maintained. Library and classrooms are maintained properly. Hostel has all the basic facilities but not a sophisticated one. The food quality is average in hostel but canteen food is better. Students are regularly trained for sports and games.
Faculty: GCT has highly qualified and knowledgeable teachers. They are helpful whenever we need them and the quality of teaching is better. The curriculum is up to date. The syllabus is getting updated as of the world now. Semester examinations are hard to pass. The pass percentage is about 45 out of 100, and the evaluation of papers is strict.
Other: I chose this course as I am a CS student in 12th grade and followed up. I would suggest improving the practical ways of teaching. GCT has many clubs integrated into IT, and students are allowed to coordinate and participate in many competitions and events. Extra-curricular like dance and song are regularly practiced and monitored by seniors.

Good placements with the highest salary package. I'm satisfied with my college and campus life.
Placements: The placement percentage varies from year to year. And it will be above 60 percent. The highest package is about 13.5 LPA and the lowest package is 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Sobha Construction Dubai, TAFe, Hyundai, etc. 100 percent of students are getting internships from the course and in companies like TVS training and services, Chennai. Quality engineer, sales. Etc. are the roles offered in companies.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available even at the hostel and on college premises. The infrastructure is old and well-maintained at the college premises. And a new hostel is opened this year. The laboratories have all machines and engines and the staff allows students to learn from them. The library is available with all books including foreign authors and local authors. The quality of food is decent in the hostel mess and canteen. The medical facilities are also available within college named dispensary where government doctors used to visit regularly on an hourly basis. Talking about sports, students are very great at making efforts.
Faculty: The teachers and professors are very well qualified helpful and friendly to learn new things every day. The teaching quality is good. Curriculum-relevant courses are there. It will make students, industry-ready. The semester exams are quite difficult, especially problematic papers. The pass percentage is above 80 percent every semester.
Other: I'm passing out batch 2025 and I'm currently placed in a company with the highest package. The things to improve is to make students get trained in new technology to update themselves. There are many events conducted by the college clubs and the campus crowd was great and motivating. The college is well known for its club culture and has more than 30 clubs to do with extracurricular activities.

More students are placed in our batch.
Placements: The placement rate for our course is 78%, with the highest package for a VLSI major being 40 LPA and the average package being 8 LPA. The top recruiters are Deloitte, Charter Global, and others. Almost 80-90% of students get placed, and 40-50% get internships at various companies.
Infrastructure: Our college has excellent infrastructure and provides many facilities. The classrooms are air-conditioned and well-furnished, and the college provides free Wi-Fi. All classrooms are smart classrooms, and the college has a well-stocked library, a garden area, an open lawn, and a canteen. The management is very good, and the college provides many sports facilities.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful. However, there is no proper management. If we work hard, it is easy to pass the semester exams. I even saw some students who passed the semester without any arrears, even though they didn't study. The pass percentage in our course is 76 percent.
