The best college for studies.
Placements: The average package is 12 LPA. They recruit tier-1, tier-2 companies, and the TCS company. They offer a certificate course and provide a better skills development course. Many people have applied and are in the process of getting selected for the internship at the given company.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available. We have a digital library, normal library, and a canteen facility is also available. We do have a mess and hostel facility, and we have sports once a year, and we have first aid medical facilities. They do focus on our practical development.
Faculty: We do have qualified faculty, and teaching quality is also good. We also have a relevant curriculum. As per the university, we have to score 50 percent to pass in each subject, and we should have 75 percent of attendance to write the exams, and they do provide us with an internship.
Other: I'm interested in working in a professional company. The reason I chose this course is that I want to open my own business and I want to gain some ideas and techniques. We also have fests and events. The campus crowd is smaller, we have around 80 students. We focus mainly on studies rather than circular activities.

Good campus life offers space for exploration and growth. Infrastructure and facilities are good.
Placements: As of 2025, in my department, more or less only 10 students have been placed in the 2026 batch. Our highest package for 2025 is 20 LPA. We are mostly offered SDE or System Engineer roles based on IT. Our top recruiters are CISCO, Infosys, Vivnovation, and some minor companies. New recruiters are getting added each year.
Infrastructure: We are equipped with the latest OS versions of Computers with good Wi-Fi. All required software is installed and ready to use. Faculty systems are repaired or replaced within a few months. Classrooms are equipped with projectors. We have a general library with abundant books, and each department has its own library. I'm a day scholar. From the Information I heard from my friends, I could say the hostel situation is pretty much manageable. We have an on-campus clinic, a playground for sports, and turf for football.
Faculty: Faculty are very skilled and trained in the courses in our curriculum. They refer us to relevant materials and courses to upskill in the coursework. We are given question banks that cover every concept of the course unit-wise, which helps prepare for exams. The pass percentage is 50 percent for all exams. The total credit for a course is given on internal marks (CA1, CA2, model, assignments) and external marks (semester exams). The semester exams could be easily cracked by going through the concepts and the question bank.
Other: Our college, apart from the curriculum, has many other extracurricular and co-curricular activities. Technical & non-technical clubs for first years to help them explore various domains. We have our own NCC, NSS, and Rotaract club. Our college provides foreign language courses in Japanese and Korean as of now for interested students. The Civil Aspirants Club helps students to dream beyond their course by guiding them to take the UPSC exams. The Central Transformative Leadership (CTL) club and the Toastmasters club are great assets in our college for leadership and public speaking.

KCG College of Technology is a great place to learn and grow.

I made a good decision on joining this college because of the great exposure I received.
Placements: The placements were excellent. My batch almost received many offers from top MNCs. The highest package is around 25 LPA, the lowest package is 3 LPA, and the average is around 6 LPA. Top companies like Amazon, Meta, Accenture, Infosys, HCL, and other top MNCs came to hire students, and all of them are related to my specialization. Nearly all of my batch (2025) gets internships from my course.
Infrastructure: Only the classrooms were non-AC rooms. Other than that, every place like the seminar hall, library, laboratories, and computer labs were maintained with AC infrastructure. The quality of the faculty is absolutely fine. They are kind and helpful, and the mess and canteen are maintained hygienically. Medical facilities are available, and they immediately take students to the institutional medical college.
Faculty: Teachers are kind and helpful in assisting with notes and books for preparation for the exam. Doubts can be clarified with professors. The college follows the Anna University curriculum, but the college is autonomous. The semester exams are easy to clear. There is no difficulty in clearing the exams.
Other: I am interested in communication-based things, so I chose this specialization which had only two options: one is ECE and the other is CCE. I don't have an interest in electronics but have an interest in communication, so I chose Computer and Communication Engineering. Many events are held on campus monthly, nearly three.
