I feel good about the hostel building, and facilities are comfortable for my studies.
Placements: About 97 percent of students get placed in companies such as Qualcomm, Amazon, and Infosys through computer-based courses. I do not have information about internships right now. The college has a very active placement cell. Seniors face tests of soft skills and coding skills regularly, which is very useful for learners.
Infrastructure: Labs are well-equipped and surrounded by noise protection glasses. The hostel has two parts. One is new with fully AC rooms, and the other is a mix of AC and non-AC rooms. The hostel is well-maintained by students. The mess has AC dining with catering service from North Indian cuisine. Medical and technical support is available 24/7. Sports facilities are well supported for hostel students. Wi-Fi support is sometimes bad.
Faculty: Faculty members are friendly both on and off the campus. The curriculum is fast and allows learning new things because of flexible learning. Exams are conducted every 45 days, meaning a semester is split into two parts of 45 days each. One part is called skill-based courses, and the other is called foundation-based courses.
Other: Everyone knows Saveetha is the best for events and cultural activities throughout the year.

It has good infrastructure and decent placements. The curriculum needs more industry focus.
Placements: Still, placements are ongoing, and the exact percentage is not confirmed yet. The highest package is 18 LPA. Many students got placed off-campus with higher packages. Top companies like CTS, TCS, Genworks AI, etc., recruit students.
Infrastructure: The library is spacious with a good collection of books. Each department has its own well-equipped lab facilities. There are 2 types of hostel blocks, i.e., AC and non-AC, and each fee is different. The mess food is good compared to colleges around Chennai. Sports are not much encouraged here.
Faculty: Many teachers are helpful and well-qualified. The overall teaching quality is good, with concepts explained clearly in class. The course curriculum is fairly relevant, but could include more industry-oriented projects. Semester exams are moderately difficult if we pass all the CAT exams.
Other: NCC, NSS, UBA, and other clubs are highly prioritised.

The college offers good teaching, active campus life, and growing opportunities in AI & DS.
Placements: In the AI & DS department, no students are placed yet because we are the first batch in our college. Placements are still ongoing. Overall, the college placement percentage is around 50–80%. The highest package offered is about 20 LPA, and the lowest package is 4 LPA. Companies like TCS, Cognizant, Avasoft, and Hexaware visit the college for placements. Students also try for internships through college support and outside companies. The top roles offered are Data Analyst, AI Engineer, App Developer, Full Stack Developer, Data Scientist, UI/UX Designer, and Software Developer.
Infrastructure: Our classrooms are well-maintained and comfortable for learning. The campus provides free Wi-Fi for students. Department has labs and a library. They are useful for studies and practical learning. The hostel infrastructure is good and well-maintained. The food in the mess and canteen is average. But new canteens are scheduled to open in February 2026, which are expected to be better. Medical facilities are available on campus. The college supports sports and games such as cricket, basketball, kho-kho, badminton, table tennis, carrom, and more. Overall, facilities and infrastructure are good and helpful for students.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, well-qualified, and knowledgeable. The staff are friendly with students. The teaching quality is good. They explain concepts clearly and support students whenever needed. The course curriculum is relevant and useful for future jobs. It helps students learn the basics required for the industry, but more practical exposure will make students more industry-ready. The semester exams are of medium difficulty. Students are well-trained through CAT exams and model exams, so the exams are manageable. The pass percentage is around 90–95%.
Other: I chose AI & DS because it is a trending course with good future scope. It helps us learn programming, data analysis, machine learning, and AI concepts, and improves problem-solving skills. The syllabus is good, but more practical classes, real-time projects, and internships will make it better. The AI & DS department has friendly and supportive staff who teach clearly and motivate students. Our college conducts many events like department symposiums, inter- and intra-college cultural programs, college day, hostel day, and DJ nights. Celebrations like New Year, Pongal, Christmas, and Onam make college life enjoyable.
