I am satisfied with the college, but for our course, there were no placements in 2018.
Placements: Almost 10% of CSE and ECE students got placed in our college, but not from civil, mechanical or other branches. The highest salary offered is Rs. 25,000 per month and the lowest salary offered is Rs. 20,000 per month. For our course, none of the companies offered an internship. But civil students got an internship at NCC under Tamil Nadu housing board, Ambattur and Chennai. We have done one more internship at Polavaram Irrigation Works in Andhra Pradesh.
Infrastructure: We have good and multiple libraries for departments with Wi-Fi availability. We have labs, separate classrooms for seminars, etc. Our hostel is a good place to live in Chennai because the food is very tasty. We have medical facilities for 24x7. Our college ground is huge, and every student will enjoy these activities.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are very helpful for students at any time. They are well-knowledgeable, and some staff members are PhD holders. Their teaching is excellent and understandable to us. Our course curriculum is good, but it offers low salaries at the starting of our career. We have sufficient knowledge to work in the companies.
Other: I have chosen this course because my passion is to be a civil engineer. The best thing about our course is labs and experiments. I wish the college to provide many labs for next coming students. In our college, weekly one fest will happen, which will be very enjoyable. Campus crowd is a bit more, but the surroundings are good. Our college provides scholarships. We have seminars and presentations for extracurricular activities.

The college is good with the good environment.
Placements: The placements are not up to the mark. For my junior's, I heard that some good companies are going to visit the campus. The average package for my senior batch is 1.8 LPA, and the highest package is 2.5 LPA. For my batch, the highest package is 2.42 LPA, and the average package is 1.2 LPA. For any other information about the placement, you can go to the college website.
Infrastructure: Well, coming to the hostel rooms, recently, they kept A/C to some of the rooms, and there are three members in a room. The hostels are well-maintained and had a good infrastructure. There is a Wi-Fi facility on the campus. The classrooms are well-cleaned, and the library is good. We have a canteen with good quality of food.
Faculty: The faculty members are helpful, and you can learn the subject there. Most of then can solve our doubts after the classes. The student to faculty ratio is 15:1. In my branch, some of my faculty have the practical experience, and that is helpful to the students.
Other: Coming to the fests, the college has some good clubs like a literary seminar and much more for their respective departments.

Overall, the study environment in the college is below average.
Placements: In the beginning, it promises that it gives placement in core companies. But in 4 years of graduation, no core company came for the interview. Few BPO companies came for training and services with a low salary package. That too they only hired only CSE AND IT departments students.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is only useful when you have a proper management system for the management team and faculty members. There's a lot of business between north and south students. Most of the teachers speak only Tamil language which is hard and impossible to understand for students from north region of India.
Faculty: Most of the faculty are M.Tech graduates, and even some were pursuing their M.Tech while in the teaching profession. There's some faculty who were helpful to students and making the things understandable in a better way. Overall, the faculty was below average.
Other: The connectivity was good. Events were not properly organised. Mostly the dates of events and programs keep fluctuating.

Good placements and the best college campus ever.
Placements: I got a placement in a big corporate company. My friends also in a good position in the company and we both paid a higher salary. Thanks to MGR University. There are many of my friends studied in my college and are also doing a great job in a good position. This is all because of MGR university founder. I really thank full to him.
Infrastructure: The facilities provided by the college are like 24X7 Wi-Fi, library facilities with air-conditioned rooms, medical facilities, sports quota admissions, and many more indoor games. There is the best canteen ever. The quality of food from the canteens are the best, but it is slightly higher in cost. Poor people cant buy enough food in the canteen.
Faculty: Staffs and professor are very helpful, especially for the slow learners. They give the full support and make us feel comfortable and make us get passed out. We have visited the industry visit many times, and that helped the slow learners.

Average faculty members, but good Infrastructure. I got good placements in 2016 in IBM.
Placements: We are satisfied with the placement offers, and they also treated us well. The average salary offered was Rs. 20,000 and mostly foreign companies offered a huge amount of salary packages for some expert students. I got a placement in IBM. All that matters is that we have to study and increase our CGPA to make them call us back. HCL, Cognizant, HP, Intel, IBM, Lenovo and Sony visited our campus for the placement interview.
Infrastructure: This campus is not as big as some other universities. But it is inside the city and also has a decent infrastructure that is maintained properly. It is neat and tidy and is maintained with good parking for vehicles and the security for the students and the staff as well. It has a lot of games, and there is a playground arena inside the campus, and they have alotted a specific department for it. The library Facilities were poor, but it has a large space. The necessary books were very rarely found.
Faculty: Well-trained faculty members trained us and cleared our doubts without hesitating. They also made us work through the industrial visit. Mostly they are friendly to us which is very helpful for our interaction with them. Some of the faculty members behave rudely and also mark us as absent if we attend the class a minute late. A single period absence will make a whole day's absence which leads to the penalty for the lower attendance percentage which wasn't fair.
Other: The MGR University is a deemed one, but it has a lot of advantages, It is much better when compared to the other universities. The semester fees are cheap. The infrastructure is very good and flawless. The students from other states were also studying here which is an advantage. It is helpfull in learning other languages from them.

Dr MGR University, only placements are required.
Placements: The placements offered for the civil branch are not good. Many small companies are visiting. The placements are majorly offered for the computer science & IT department, but for the civil and mechanical branches, it is a tough fight. In my batch, only 10% of the students were placed, and same for my senior batch with an average salary offered 2 lacs per annum. I don't think that it is worthy for a B.Tech student. So, you can also give one more chance to yourself to rethink about the college. I don't have any bad experience with the college, but I am just telling the truth.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is cool. The classrooms are good and spacious, but no air-conditioners are available. The labs are equipped with the air-conditioner and Wi-Fi. The food in the mess is good, and the college canteen is great. You can easily find good taste out there. The hostel is sweet and simple. I never had any issue with the infrastructure of the college, just sometimes the speed of the net is quite slow. Otherwise, the infrastructure is good.
Faculty: The faculty members are satisfactory. Some of them are good, and some of them teach whatever they know. They will not entertain your doubts. Marks system is quite easy there, so it is easy to fetch marks there. Ragging is banned. However, some unwanted elements are always present to disturb you, and for that, you can complain anytime to the dean or your near and dear college staff.
Other: I had an exciting life over there. Some teachers are great to me till now. I miss that time. However, whenever I go to Chennai, I used to go to my college. My college canteen provides my favourite Dahi Chawal (curd rice). All just study hard where ever you are going, because, at the end of the day, you have to lead our nation. Dr MGR University is a good university having a great potential to break the boundary and help us to reach our objective, and they just need to focus on the placements.
