Anna University

The Material Science programme at CEG is more test-oriented than research or employment oriented. The tests are monotonous. Every year, they repeat the same pattern of questions. If you bootlick the professors, you can get really good marks. There was this thermodynamics sir who didn't even teach at all. The curriculum was very poor. There were no Ceramics, Polymers units in detail. What is the use of naming the dept. Materials Science if you are only going to teach Metallurgy? Placements are very poor. Most of them were placed in IT companies. Only one or two in core. For GATE, you have to prepare on your own. Only a few professors like Dr. A. Siddharthan were research-oriented. Rest all believed in mugging up and scoring.

Madras Institute of Technology comes under Anna University. So the campus is authorised to attend placements in Guindy campus of Anna University too. Now coming to the statistics, Accenture, Accolite, Air Watch, Amazon, Chronus, Citicorp, CTS, Flipkart, TCS, RBS and many others come to the campus for placements. Statistically, more than 50 percent of the students have been placed. With a filter on CS/IT department, more than 70 percent of the students were placed as of the year 2016. You have tremendous job opportunities for information technology and especially computer Science courses where is for electronic courses you are doomed that are basically only less than 5 core companies which come to the campus and only pick the cream of the class.
