Our college is good for placements and good faculty.

Placements: There is a separate placement team that brings many on-campus drives from different stream companies. Every batch has at least 20 on-campus drives. 80 percent of students get placed in the on-campus drive. The college also provides the details of many off campus drives, and the packages are as per the market. Many companies like TCS, IBM, Capgemini, Tech Mahindra, etc. MNCs visit every year.

Infrastructure: The college is away from the city with peaceful surroundings and a green environment. The college has different blocks for each stream and a bus facility from all over the city. Each department has very good labs and classrooms are equipped with digital technology. The college provides free Wi-Fi to students on campus.

SRM VEC College has some restrictions in the dress code. There are no cultural events.

Placements: Last year, out of 60 students, nearly 15 got placed. The package offered is less than 8 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Hexaware Technologies and Johnson Lifts, etc. The overall placement is average. I would suggest people not to expect more from the college placements. They have to put effort into off-campus also.

Infrastructure: The classrooms are quite neat and clean and the seminar hall has AC. The classrooms only have around 6 fans and the seating capacity of around 120 members. Maybe the classrooms make it an AC upgrade, and the department is located on the 10th floor of the college. Still, we have an issue with the lift because it is overloaded and we can't use it in the morning and evening because of overcrowding. The library has plenty of books. The canteen is in decent condition.

Faculty: Teachers are good. Teaching quality is too good. The course curriculum is good. It doesn't make the students industry-ready, still they train students to get into a job. The semester exams are somehow difficult still it is an autonomous college. The pass percentage is around 80 percent.

Other: Electronics and instruments in engineering is a required course in the AI era. The best things about my course are PLC, SCADA, automation, and robotics. The Laboratories may need an update in future years. These fests and culturals do not happen at all in SRMVEC. Yet we can go and see SRMIST events like Yatra, Lemuria, and Milan. For good exposure in the electronics field, you can choose this department.
