Decent college, but overcrowded.
Placements: 80% of students who applied were placed. The highest package received in 2024 was around 40 LPA, and the average package was 6 LPA. The average package decreased. Over 200 companies are coming for placements, including Amazon, Microsoft, etc. Around 50% got internships before it.
Infrastructure: Facilities are good with both classrooms and labs. Classrooms have A/C, but it feels congested as there are too many people in one class. There is Wi-Fi available in both hostels and the college, which is fast and unlimited. The food is very average, and not everyone may like it. There are facilities to play various sports, with two playgrounds free at all times.
Faculty: Teachers are okay. Some are good, some are interesting, and some are boring. The course curriculum is fairly relevant, but the courses feel unnecessary and old. It can help the students to get industry-ready, and labs help them to get hands-on experience. The exams are fairly easy to pass and score.
Other: I chose this college because of its reputation, but it's not all that. The events and fests are nice and very well done.

Best college experience at SRM.
Placements: From the 7th semester, students become eligible for campus placements. Top companies like Amazon, TCS, Infosys, Wipro, HUL, HCL, and so on come for placements. I got offers from 2 companies: Infosys and Base Automation Technologies. The highest package is 51 LPA, and the average package is 3 to 5 LPA. 90% of people are easily getting placed. My plan after getting the placement is to work.
Infrastructure: The main thing I would like to mention here is the library, which has over 4 lakhs of books, including resources for IAS, IFS, IPS, and Central and State government aspirants. The gym is overall good. Campus timings are 8 to 4, depending on the day of the week and departments. Security is very strict here, so students can't do any unnecessary activities inside the campus.
Faculty: The faculty-to-student ratio is overall good. The relationship between the students and faculty members is very positive. My best faculty member is Dr. Kirigalan; he is a good professor and is always open to helping students after college hours. The courses are well-structured. We can expect 7 to 8 subjects for each semester, and everything is easy to understand.
Other: Milan and Aarush are the famous events in our college. Around 20 to 30 festivals happen here because students from all states are studying together, which is the main reason. The facilities and technology provisions in the classrooms include projectors, LED displays like SMART televisions, AC, and so on.

Below average, poor ROI. Infrastructure is also average. Faculty is very strict in some aspects.
Placements: SRM NCR campus has a below average placement. We have seen our seniors struggling for a better placement. The average package of last year was just 4-5 LPA. It doesn't really justify the ROI, as the fees is Rs. 3 LPA per annum for B. Tech, but the package is very less.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is just fine, nothing too extravagant. The building is very small, and Wi-Fi is very poor. Only the computer labs are well designed and maintained, but not everyone is allowed to enter the labs. Only the first year students are allowed to go there, and from second year onwards, the students are shifted to different labs, with low-quality equipment and gadgets.
Faculty: Some of the faculty members are really good and friendly, but as you reach the second year, some of them become very rude and unapproachable. They often hold grudges against the whole class and do the marks evaluation very unfairly. The faculty is also biased for girls' dress code, as girls are not allowed to wear crop tops. There are various strict rules, like, you can't leave the campus before lunch. The guards don't allow you to go outside the campus before lunch. Also, if you don't attend the classes, they send SMS to your parents stating that you were absent in XYZ lectures.
Other: There are very few events held at our college. There aren't any fests, where we invite celebs and do the events on a large scale. Only small-scale events are held, that too, only twice or thrice a year.

SRM College life - A dream life.
Placements: There are placements, and placement training is also done from the first year itself so it will be easy for students to handle the interview. Companies like Accenture, Amazon, Zoho, and other big companies come for the placements. Mainly engineering students get more placements here.
Infrastructure: I love the infrastructure, mainly they are very clean too. There is a big ground and separate courts for badminton, basketball, and they even have a swimming pool. There is a social media platform on Instagram run by journalism students. Canteen is crazy here, they even have Subways and Domino's.
Faculty: All teachers are too good, and they are all well educated. The courses will be covered within the time given. The semester consists of 3 exams, and mostly it will be easy. The passing mark is 25 for PG students in the cycle test and 20 for UG students.
Other: I like the buildings and library, like it is too big and has a lot of books. All the time, there will be an event where you can participate, and it will be very fun. Every department will be conducting one or more events so there are a lot of opportunities for the students to showcase their talents.

Good infrastructure and campus life, but average teaching quality.
Placements: Students who sit for placements almost get placed. Nearly 90% of the placements are done in our college. There is a separate cell called the placements cell for handling placements; their work is to bring companies to the college and prepare students to get placed. The highest package is around 65 LPA and the lowest is around 2-3 LPA. The average package is around 7-9 LPA. TCS, Infosys and Accenture are the top recruiters here.
Infrastructure: The CSE department has good labs with updated systems and projectors in classrooms. Campus-wide Wi-Fi is available but sometimes unstable. The library is large with both physical and digital resources. Hostels are clean, with AC/non-AC options, though Wi-Fi is patchy. Washrooms are maintained, but can get crowded at peak times. Mess food is average; some days it is good, and some days it is repetitive. Canteens and food courts offer a better variety at extra cost. Medical facilities include a campus health center and tie-ups with hospitals. Sports facilities are excellent, with grounds, courts, a gym, and indoor games. Overall, facilities are solid, though Wi-Fi and food could be better.
Faculty: Teachers are generally qualified, approachable, and knowledgeable, with many explaining concepts well, though a few stick to theory. The curriculum is fairly updated and provides a strong foundation, but students need to supplement it with projects, internships, and certification to become truly industry-ready. Semester exams are of moderate difficulty, with a high pass percentage thanks to internal marks and continuous assessment, so most students clear without much stress. Overall, teaching quality is decent, the course is relevant, and with extra effort from students, it prepares them reasonably well for the industry.
Other: I chose CSE because I've always been interested in coding, problem-solving, and new technologies like AI/ML. The best thing about this course is the strong foundation it gives in programming, data structures, and core CS concepts, plus the exposure to projects and coding competitions. However, I wish the course had more practical, industry-oriented subjects and hands-on projects rather than too much theory. Campus life is lively, with many cultural and technical fests, clubs, and hackathons that help students showcase their skills. The crowd is diverse and energetic, making it easy to connect with others. The exam system needs improvement.

Infrastructure: Facility and infrastructure are good. Infrastructure is being upgraded constantly new buildings are being built and new technologies are being used.

Faculty: Faculty members are okay. Since there are so many students good faculty members are less when compared to the number of students. Course curriculum is outdated and they teach the same outdated subjects which aren't relevant. Exams are pretty easy and there is exam every month.
