UVCE a brand for nothingUVCE a brand for nothing.

Placements: My course architecture Bachelor doesn't unnecessarily have placement records. But we need to apply to different from by a cell and the teachers also help us in doing the same. Like other branches we do not have a dedicated placement cell as such. It is a self help process.

Infrastructure: The course is good and interesting and beneficial. But not the hostels. The hostels are in the same condition as any other government institute or building. Very congested and dirty and ill managed. A room for 4 is accommodation 10 students the rooms are ripping from the ceiling.

Faculty: The faculty is really nice. There are a lot of experience teachers and architects and planners. But the examination procedure as a whole for the college is not on track. The exam are very irregular and the college does not follow any time table as such.

Other: The college is a brand in itself people respect this college a lot due to its name IE Vishwesvaraiya. There are many events and best happening All around The year in which the student can participate and even volunteer at time.

It's a very nice college. I recommend joining here.

Placements: The architecture department usually has low-class strength as it's a difficult course and in my class there are 28 students. Our placements are pretty good all the top companies prefer UVCE. Rs. 16,000- Rs. 30,000 is our package and for architecture, we have alot of opportunities like landscaped architecture interior designer.

Infrastructure: The main campus has Wi-Fi, vending machine, a canteen, and labs, which are also very good. Hostels are pretty good too we have proper hygiene and decent food.

Faculty: Some teachers are extremely good and have great knowledge but some of them are not good. They hold on grudges, they give more marks to their favourite students. Our HOD is a very nice person like he is one of the best human I've ever met.

Other: I always wanted to study architecture it is an excellent course for the one interested in it and it is one of the most highly paid courses. I wish that some of the teachers should be changed. Events are very good on the main campus we have late-night events also. We do have scholarships. We have a lot of fests in our college which are amazing we even have late-night events and we have many clubs like IEEE and others.

When it comes to fees it is definitely reasonable. The total fees for the course is 1,94,250.

Placements: Placements are good in this college since it has come under IIT so the placements will get better and better. Nothing matters as long as the student is good. There is something called nasa ( national association of students of architecture ) which is very important.

Infrastructure: We have Wi-Fi but not all the time. Old desks and we have a library, hostels are not bad but ay the same time are not great. We have sports every year and other extracurricular activities as well this college is very quiet as the intake is very less .

Faculty: Some teachers are extremely good while some are not that great. Some are highly knowledgeable. In this college students have to work on their own to get better because there's no way students can depend on their teachers. Semester exams are fine and not that hard only if the students are willing to work hard .

Review of University Visvesvaraya College of Engineering, Bangalore University.

Placements: Almost 50% of students were placed in our college. There was no package like other colleges, and the average salary was Rs 35,000 per month. Most of all students used to get internships based on their sheet work and design. There was no rule in our college and the attendance was compulsory, students had to attend the class on time.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure was good, because our college was in the forest area. Students can enjoy a lot, as well as classrooms, were average. The Wi-Fi was enabled all the time. The food served in the canteen was average. Sports and games were not provided. As well yearly once students had inter college sports meet i.e for 3 days.

Faculty: The teaching quality was good in our college. For the 4th semester, exams were difficult and the passing marks were 50 out of 100 for a few subjects, and it depended on the subject. Compared to all courses architecture was not difficult, students will be able to attend. The exam was based on sheet work, projects, and how they create a design.

Other: I chose this course, because it was a professional course as compared to all other courses and also easy. The students get scholarships of Rs 21,000 per year. Getting a seat in a government college was very difficult.

Review of University Visvesvaraya College of Engineering, Bangalore University.

Placements: For architecture in UVCE, the number of students taken is only 40 students through KCET NATA. The architecture course does not offer placements. But a few companies come to the college to offer placements with better packages for students. About 90% of students got placed.

Infrastructure: The hostel is quite good. For the architecture department, there is a separate hostel with 2-sharing rooms. We don't have Wi-Fi and labs. The quality of washrooms is poor as it's a government college. The mess food is good.

Faculty: The teachers are well educated and experienced. They know what's going on. They teach us according to that, but some well-experienced teachers are retired now. The new teachers are also good.

Other: I was interested in architecture, so I joined here. This course gives us the best experience, where we have to visit outside and learn as a part of the course. The campus crowd is low. Many activities are conducted here, and we really enjoy here.
