Good college for placements.
Placements: This institution is actually good with not that good infrastructure. Actually, the placements here are almost 70% which is good. The rest of them do not get placed and might not have used the opportunity. TCS and Accenture like companies come here for good recruitment. The highest package known to me is 19 LPA (2027 batch), and the lowest salary is 4 LPA.
Infrastructure: Hostel is very important. You will be awarded great freedom here it's actually funny here. Wi-Fi is very good. From next year, they are allocating AC rooms in E block. There are vending machines inside and if you are hungry you can eat when you have GPay. Every room is updated with mosquito nets. Hostel food is the best thing about this college. It is the best in Tamil Nadu. It is a no ragging campus.
Faculty: Faculty members are so strict. Some of them are good but the others are actually not good. They actually give arrears of what they have warned you before, lab experiments are difficult. None of them gives a correct theoretical reading. It does make the student industry-ready, and the curriculum is relevant. Teachers are qualified though.
