It has a good crowd and campus placements.

Placements: Since I am in my first year itself, so I don't know much about placements but according to my seniors, the placement structure is pretty decent and many companies visit our college. The minimum package is 4 LPA and the highest package offered till now is 32 LPA.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is posh, clean, and attractive. Classrooms are just like normal school, college classrooms. The library of the Commerce section is fully air-conditioned. The canteen provides hygiene and decent food. Instead of the canteen, we can call it a restaurant as it provides almost everything.

Faculty: As of the first year for me, the teaching quality is good. Teachers are very helpful to everyone. They also give personal attention to each kid and never hesitate to solve queries and doubts of students. All teachers till now are friendly to us.

Other: I chose B.Tech. in Electronics and Computer Science Engineering course. I chose this course because this course provides the information, knowledge, and skills for both the courses of Electronics and Computer Science. If we talk about the fests, no doubt Pillai College of Engineering organised one of the greatest fests in the whole of Maharashtra.

Love for college: Campus to corporate.

Placements: I guess 70% of students get placed in TCS, Capgemini, Reliance, etc. The roles are software developers, front-end developers, and testers. The highest package this year is about 14 LPA, and the average is near about 5 LPA. College does support every student to get an internship in their last year, and there is a good TPO that works for the students.

Infrastructure: Our college is well maintained, the classrooms hold a good space, proper benching is there with a projector in every class, and labs are modern-day updated. The hostel is good in terms of cleanliness, it is about 3 km from the college. It is located in a good location, has good security, and all-time clean.

Faculty: Teachers are too good and supportive to be honest, that is why I applied to this college. Exams are a bit complex, making students ready to face any challenge. The academic year is well structured; we have three exams in one semister, which include internal assessments 1 and 2 with final exams.

Other: I was fond of tech and computer science, this keeps us updated in day-to-day tech. I would like to go deep into knowing AI, ML, and cybersecurity.

Satisfied because of faculty members, events, and placements are also decent.

Placements: In my course last year, the highest package offered by Flipkart was 32 LPA. The college helps students in getting internships if they are eligible. The college is good in terms of placement and resources for the internship and placement. Tata, Infosys, Jio, Capgemini, HCL, and many more companies are the recruiters.

Infrastructure: In engineering, there is no AC, but the campus is full of Wi-Fi. The library is good. The hostel facilities provided are also good. The canteen is the best part of the college. They are very good in terms of events and programs. The college life is best here. It is worth taking admission here.

Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified and very supportive. Our college is autonomous which means the curriculum is designed industries oriented. College semester exams are easy to pass and high scoring if you regularly give two hours daily. Almost all students clear the sem exam.

Other: I chose this course because it gives exposure to both software and hardware engineering as well as because of my interest in the semiconductors industry. Alegria is the top fest in the Navi Mumbai region organized by our college.
