    Best placements are offered by my college.
    Placements: Companies like Bosch, Ashok Leyland and other core companies recruit from the college. The placements process include four rounds, the first is an aptitude and logical reasoning test, the second is a group discussion, the third is a technical round, and the forth round is an HR interview.
    Infrastructure: The college offers a user friendly environment. The library has an extensive collection of books. After admission, the students can register for Wi-Fi which gets activated within two days. The campus also has equipped grounds and a swimming pool. The hostel students have 24*7 Wi-Fi access. The food is acceptable but is limited to vegetarian options only as non vegetarian food is prohibited in the campus.
    Faculty: The college follows the syllabus of Anna University due to its affiliation, but as an autonomous institution, it adapts the curriculum to emerging trends. The students receive certification from Anna University. Each semester includes two industrial visits, ensuring substantial industrial exposure.
    Other: It is ranked among the top 10 institutions. While the college provides numerous facilities, the students need to actively pursue and utilize these opportunities.

    Other: Could have been better in teaching, at least they could have given exposure to current technologies. Professors weren't updated with the current technologies nor were they good in their knowledge. Overall a bad experience. After graduating, I realized how bad the labs were when compared to private institutions and steps taken by the management for giving practical knowledge were minimum.

    Other: The campus is usually identified by calm atmosphere. It proves to be a pleasant place to study. The food offered by the college is one big thing to be mentioned over. The college maintains good culture and environment by appropriate rules and policies. The teaching will be more of interactive rather than lecture session. One more awesome facility provided is transportation. They provide bus for students in around Chennai. The college maintains good contact and rapport with the alumni which provides for knowledge sharing with the students. Lots of symposium and workshops will be conducted in addition to the regular academic classes.

Kongu culture can be felt around the campus. College fest, dept. functions & other association events are conducted regularly. Tests are conducted on a regular basis which can be both, planned as well as surprise in nature. Although surprise tests are not very common but students try and stay as up-to-date as possible in subjects.
