Best place for entertainment.
Placements: There was no campus interview but we had some off campus. We need to struggle a lot to get placement. You have to try your own to get your desired job. Mechanical Engineers are the worst Batch who gets only Rs8,000 salary. So in 3rd year concentrate on Design software to get placement.
Infrastructure: Our University was wide enough and had a large warandha. Good environment and nice location to reach. Classroom are neat and clean. We had played a lot. Food quality is not good. Canteen is available. Labs facility available. Wi-Fi connection available. Hostellers are Requested to be safe as snakes and monkeys around you.
Faculty: All our faculty members are kind hearted and good in knowledge. We have 8 Semester. Saturday Sunday holiday.

Friendly faculty members for Students.
Placements: Don't expect placements in this college, No core company will come for campus interview. They Conduct Job Fair every year one time for all students even off-campus students also participate on that Job Fair but job is not guaranteed for everyone its just a hope !
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is Average, Since it is located in the Highways between Trichy and Thanjavur we can't expect the high-speed internet connection even in our Mobile ! And there is no free Wi-Fi connection, But the computer lab is very good more than 200 computers are available for students in the Computer Lab.
Faculty: Faculty members are very friendly and kind, they can improve their communication skills so that every one can easily understand what they are saying! They all qualified and knowledgeable, we cannot experience any industrial exposures. Students can get basic knowledge about the papers.
