Enjoying the college days with both learning and a set of great friends and faculty members.
Placements: Placements in my college are very structured. They maintain a placement cell that is very active, with daily updates of companies that are hiring shared via a WhatsApp group. They also conduct job fairs where students can attend interviews with various companies on campus.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is good. The lab has enough systems with the required configuration and Ethernet connected for each system. Students can access the Wi-Fi if required, but speed can be a little issue as many students connect at the same time. Classrooms and the library are clean and good. As for the hostel, I can't speak because I’m a day scholar.
Faculty: The course is good overall and has 2–3 days of practical sessions in the lab. The faculty members are very good at teaching and helpful in explaining the topics and clearing doubts with interesting real-time examples. Exams are conducted on time, and the exams won’t be too tough. If you write what you listened to in class, you can clear the papers.
Other: The college is good so far, with events like Onam, Diwali, Pongal, and 2Culture. There is a scholarship for the alumni students of this college.

Neutralists are satisfied with the specific faculty members and friends.
Placements: Placement is good. WhatsApp group will be created by the placement cell of the department. Students are asked to join this group, and they update details of the companys vacancy, and also provide the campus drive, free placement, and training opportunity will be provided in the name of placement.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good, two laboratories with 70+ systems with the internet connection and 5 ton centralized air conditioning. I am a day scholar. I do not know much about the hostel, but the college canteen food is good, and the prices are slightly high.
Faculty: Semester exams are conducted strictly with the flying squad. Three examinations are conducted for a semester, the CAT Pre University examination, final semester examinations, and the practical examination. The faculty will guide us for the examinations and will have three laboratory sessions for a week.
Other: I chose this course to gain more proficiency in IT field, and they provided a 15% scholarship for alumni students.

Dr. M.G.R. Educational and Research Institute.
Placements: In my course, MCA, around 75-80% of students were placed through campus recruitment. The highest package offered was around 8-10 LPA, the lowest around 3 LPA, and the average around 4.5-5 LPA. Top recruiting companies included TCS, Wipro, Infosys, Cognizant, HCL, and Accenture, along with a few product-based startups. Around 60-65% of students received internships, mainly in companies like Zoho, Virtusa, CTS, and Capgemini, where they worked on real-time projects. The top roles offered were Software Developer, Full Stack Developer, Data Analyst, System Engineer, and Associate Consultant. Overall, the course provided good placement opportunities and strong industry exposure.
Infrastructure: Our department has good infrastructure facilities such as spacious classrooms, projectors, well-equipped computer labs with high-speed Wi-Fi, and a central library with a wide collection of books and e-resources. The hostel facilities are decent, with proper rooms, 24/7 water and electricity, and security. Mess food is satisfactory with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, while the canteen offers snacks and beverages. The campus also provides medical facilities, a health center, and ambulance support. For recreation, there are facilities for sports and games such as cricket, football, volleyball, badminton, and indoor games, ensuring a balanced campus life.
Faculty: Faculty members in our course are highly qualified, knowledgeable, and supportive. Most of them explain concepts clearly and are approachable for doubts beyond class hours. The curriculum is regularly updated and covers important subjects in programming, databases, networking, and emerging technologies, which helps students become industry-ready. The teaching quality is good, with practical sessions, projects, and seminars adding more value. The semester exams are of moderate difficulty, focusing more on understanding concepts rather than written learning.
Other: I chose the MCA course because of my interest in programming, software development, and the opportunities it provides in the IT industry. Best things about this course are the practical exposure, supportive faculty, and good placement opportunities with reputed companies. Our campus also conducts technical events, cultural fests, and workshops that give us a chance to learn and showcase our skills.

It is the best college for my experience.
Placements: They offer various types of internships, including many good internships that offer a very good stipend. Major students get placed in the top teaching companies here, the placement policy is very good and designed such that major students get placed. Around 50% of the students got placed in the course. The highest package was 17 lacs, and the lowest was around 3 lacs. The companies that visit the campus are Delloite, Wipro, TCS, Adani etc. The college offered good placement opportunities for students interested in getting employed.
Infrastructure: It's a good 3-year course, but most of the time has been spent on COVID, so I spent 2 years in online classes. In online structure was good and I like it. They also did the practice and project in a good way. I love my course. Food was good, no doubt, and even the rooms are fully furnished. It was three sharing and too spacious. We always submitted the feedback on the mess, and they always try to improve their menu. The most noticeable thing is that they provide North Indian food for North Indians.
Faculty: The faculty is highly qualified, chosen through a rigorous selection process by MGREEE (MGR Engineering Entrance Examination). This committee evaluates faculty members' qualifications, requires them to pass an exam to become educators, and conducts personal interviews before finalizing appointments. As a result, the teaching standards are very high. The MCA course covers a range of subjects related to Computer Science and Applications, including Operating Systems, Networking, DBMS, C, C++, Java, and several management-related topics.

Faculty: The teaching methodology is a good blend of theory and practical exposure, with the use of presentations, real-world case studies, and lab sessions. Some professors even include industry trends and tools in their lectures to enhance learning.
Other: I chose this course because of my passion for the subject and the wide range of career opportunities it offers. The best part of the course is its industry-aligned curriculum, experienced faculty, and hands-on learning through projects, internships, and labs. Regular workshops, guest lectures, and seminars by industry experts help us stay updated with the latest trends and technologies.
