SCTCE is good when it comes to academics.

Placements: Honesty, placements are not that good. Core companies rarely show up for Auto, so most of us just end up in mass recruiter IT jobs. SCT is good at academics, but the degree alone is useless. If I don't grind coding or Machines learning on the side, I'm not getting a job.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is average. Campus is tiny, basically a school with no ground for football. Auto labs are decent, there's alot of KSRTC buses. There isn't any college hostel but college approved private hostels. Facilities are bare minimum but the college is located in a city.

Faculty: Faculty is good. Most of them are highly qualified. Half of them are good at teaching but the other half have massive ego issues. The Auto syllabus is alright. KTU exams are just a scam to give us supplies. I spend more time writing records than actually learning anything.

4Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

The college has good placement records and a vibrant campus life.

Placements: The overall placement was 35 percent in 2024. The highest package is 34 LPA from a software/IT branch. The median package is 5.2 LPA for B.Tech. The average package is 4- 6 LPA for CS and ECE departments. The lowest package is 4 LPA. Recruitment is largely dominated by the IT sector. Although core electronics and design companies also visit. Top companies include TCS, Infosys, Cognizant, Wipro, UST Global, Oracle, and Tata Elxsi. The college actively promotes and secures internships. Internship companies include Tata Elxsi, bTrizlabs, Accubits, and Infosys. Top roles include Software Engineer and Electronic Design Engineer.

Infrastructure: I am a day scholar. The ECE department is well-regarded for its laboratory facilities, with a focus on both core electronics and emerging fields. The college is equipped with a cutting-edge computer network and internet facility. There is a Central Computing Facility (CCF). Classrooms are generally well-maintained, and some are smart classes equipped with projectors. The Central Library is well-stocked, with a collection of over 30,000 books. A Digital Library is also available. The food in the canteen is cheap but not good. The overall campus area is relatively small, and the college lacks its own full-size grounds.

Faculty: Faculty, particularly in the ECE department, are highly qualified, experienced, and dedicated. Many holding degrees from reputed institutions like IITs and NITs. Faculty members are helpful. They are supportive, friendly, and approachable. The B.Tech curriculum is governed by the APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University (KTU). The course curriculum is considered relevant. The university exams are moderate to difficult. There are usually two series exams before the semester-end exam, and the average of these marks contributes to the final internal assessment. The pass percentage was around 75 percent in 2024.

Absolutely satisfied here.

Placements: Above 40 percent of students are placed in our course. Average package is 8 LPA. Mainly Tata, Elix, other automobile companies, and industrial companies come for recruitment from our college. Above 60 percent of students got internships. It is a better college.

Infrastructure: The college has good infrastructural conditions for studying mainly for mechanical students. It consists of modern equipment using labs and good lab faculty members. More importantly, it only has a limited place for play ground. It also doesn't have an auditorium but it has seminar halls.

Faculty: All teachers who teach here are very supportive and friendly. Most teachers have patent and doctorate. They all have updated knowledge of their subjects. The college is under KTU. The college follows the rules, circular of KTU university. Semester exams are simple if you study properly.

The college has good infrastructure and faculty.

Placements: Several companies like Infosys, Amazon, etc., come for the placement drive annually. At least 15 students get paid internships in the 4th year. The highest package in 2025 is 34 LPA from Amazon, received by two students from the AI and ML branches. The 2024 scheme provides internships in the 4th year.

Infrastructure: Currently, college hostels aren't available, but there are several hostels nearby. Wi-Fi is available, and labs are of top quality. The college has a library. There are department libraries too. Classrooms are average. The canteen operates almost daily. Sports are active, even though the ground is small.

Faculty: The 2024 scheme is different from the 2019 scheme. The 4th year is purely practical, where we do projects, seminars, and internships. There are two series of exams before the KTU semester exams, which are considered for internals. Exams aren't that difficult if we study seriously. The staff members are very supportive and qualified. They often give additional classes if needed.

Other: AI and ML is a field that is growing rapidly. Taking this course provides you with a chance to land a job of your dreams. Companies are more interested in this branch. Cult Away is an annual college fest, mostly held for 3 days. There are many societies and clubs where you can showcase your talents. The campus surroundings are good, with a basic canteen available.

Review of SCT College of Engineering.

Placements: The percentage of students who got placed was very less last year. No top companies visited our college for the past few years. The placement percentage is decreasing year by year. It is also very hard to find an internship for students as college will not support them.

Infrastructure: Our college doesn't have a hostel on campus. Instead, students are accommodated in private hostels which are approved by the college which is also near to it. Our campus area is small as compared to other engineering colleges. But there are enough lab facilities, classrooms, and libraries for every department.

Faculty: Faculty members are very supportive and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is quite good compared to other government colleges. Course curriculum mainly focuses on theory. It would have been much better if it focuses practically. There are 2 series of exams before the semester exam. Series exams are much easier than semester exams.
