Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com.) - Batch of 2025

3.8

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Decent faculty & facilities, but needs better placement support.

Placements: In SMS Lucknow, in the S B.Com programme, around 10% of students get placed. The highest package is approximately 1.4-5.5 LPA, the average is 2 LPA, and the lowest is around 1.4 LPA. Companies like HCL, TCS, Godrej, Bandhan Bank, and Bajaj offer roles such as sales/relationship manager, and around 25% of students secure internships with a stipend of 6,000.

Infrastructure: SMS Lucknow offers facilities like Wi-Fi-enabled classrooms, a well-stocked library, and computer labs for B.Com students. The hostel has basic amenities, decent room quality, a mess serving average food, a canteen, basic medical aid, and provisions for indoor and outdoor sports.

Faculty: The faculty at SMS Lucknow for B.Com is generally helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable, with satisfactory teaching quality. The curriculum is basic and moderately relevant to industry needs, while semester exams are of average difficulty with a high pass percentage.

Other: I chose the B.Com course at SMS Lucknow to build a strong foundation in commerce and management for future career opportunities. The best part is the supportive faculty and decent campus facilities, but industry exposure and placement opportunities could be improved. The campus hosts occasional events and fests, has a friendly crowd, good connectivity, and offers scholarships along with extracurricular activities.

B.Tech. in Computer Science Engineering - Batch of 2028

Good infrastructure, supportive faculty, and decent campus life with scope for better placements.

Placements: The placement is going average this placement season, but compared to other universities in Lucknow, it is better though still not up to the mark due to the recession and other factors. The highest package is around 15 LPA, and the lowest is about 3 LPA in B.Tech only. Overall, about 50% of B.Tech students are placed.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good enough, it is spread over about 15 acres, which is average not too big and not too small. The campus includes all facilities like a gym, canteens, and spacious hostels, including AC hostels with free Wi-Fi facility for every hosteller. There are two libraries one for management courses and another for engineering courses, but students are free to use either. Classrooms are spacious and well-furnished, with no issues. The institute has every lab required, including Chemistry, Electrical, Electronics, Graphics, etc.

Faculty: Faculty members at SMS Lucknow are quite helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They are supportive and approachable. The course curriculum is affiliated with Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Technical University, so the curriculum in some subjects, especially in the first year, is standard. The semester exams conducted by AKTU are moderately difficult not too hard and not too easy for most students. But, the evaluation process is sometimes inconsistent. The pass percentage in the college is around 80 to 85%.

Other: I am pursuing B.Tech in Computer Science from SMS. As I mentioned earlier, I chose this course to gain deep technical knowledge in computer science. Faculty is good, and knowledgeable, and the teaching quality is also good. Now about events are average. Fests like freshers’ and the annual fest are held. Sports facilities are good, and the college hosts competitions. Scholarships are provided based on merit. Overall, it is a decent experience.

I am dissatisfied with events. The crowd of students of this college is educated.

Placements: Placements are average and not that good as the fee is low so the placement package also depends on students and how skilled they are to get good placement. We do not get many internship opportunities and even low internships are available from college. Placements are average as many students get placements.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are average. The library is below average. The hostel is very bad and not hygienic. It does not focus on cleanliness.

Faculty: Teachers are good, but they do not have much knowledge as some teachers prepare notes to teach. I am not making anyone down but some teachers don't know how to speak proper English. Semester exams are moderate as it is not too difficult to pass. Students can pass easily by studying one day before exams. They do not know how to speak proper English as they always talk in Hindi. Only some teachers are good in English and are knowledgeable.

Other: Events of the college are bad, and they barely organise any events. If they organise, they charge so much money according to events. In one event during the dance, they divide both boys and girls.

Absolutely worth it to study in this college.

Placements: SMS Lucknow College has a good placement record, with various companies visiting the campus for recruitment. 70% to 80% of students get placed every year, with some reviews mentioning 50% to 85% placement rates.

Infrastructure: The course here is worth it. Teachers try very hard to teach students. They are so supportive regarding everything. Hostel facilities are not very good. Hostel rules are very strict. Starting in the hostel is not recommended. You will also not find any other option for staying, as SMS is quite far from the rush area of Lucknow.

Faculty: Teachers at SMS Lucknow are renowned for their professional background and high caliber of education. They use case studies and simulations to impart useful managerial skills, making the learning experience engaging and practical. Many students appreciate the faculty's helpful and supportive nature, saying they go the extra mile to ensure students understand the material. The curriculum is designed to provide students with a strong foundation in their chosen field. For example, the MBA programme has a curriculum that is well-structured, with some students rating it 3.5 out of 5.

Other: For MBA students, there are events that are organized by MBA students only to gain practical knowledge about their course.

placement was good. Almost all students got placed as DTs for 1 year but not permanently in company.

Placements: All students were placed. The highest average salary was Rs.14,000 per month. Bajaj Motors, Force India Limited, and Motherson Sumi Systems were the hiring companies. Almost all students were placed as DTs, but only for 1 year, which was very disappointing. After 1 year, all the companies fired you.

Other: I chose a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering because I wanted to be an engineer, but B.Tech fees were very high. A diploma gives a job very easily. SMS College needed to improve its college timings, like a school, from 9:40 AM to 4:50 PM. Events and scholarships were good.
