Review of SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur.
Placements: The placement record here is unbelievable. Above 4,000 students get placed in more than 300 companies each year. Companies like Amazon, Flipkart, Google, Microsoft, and many other IT companies hire their skillful employees from the campus. The highest package is 56 LPA. The average package here is 10 LPA. Many students get internship opportunities at an early stage of their degree.
Infrastructure: Facilities present here are above my expectations. As for a private campus, it is acceptable. The course fee here is also high. All buildings here have Wi-Fi connection with a moderate speed. Classrooms are very much advanced. The library here has a sufficient number of books and novels. The hostel facility provided here is also top-notch. Hostel buildings have different Wi-Fi systems. The mess and canteen food is delicious, but not like home food. The medical team is always present in each building. Multiple sports equipment is available in both the academic block and the hostel block.
Faculty: Teachers of my branch are highly qualified and down-to-earth. All teachers are ever ready to solve our doubts in any topic of their respective subjects. The academic curriculum is walking in parallel with the knowledge of AI. Students are highly satisfied and properly guided in this sector of AI. Semester exams are a bit difficult, but this stage of difficulty is quite acceptable. The pass percentage is around 85-90 percent.
Other: Fest time is the most beautiful time in the institute. Many popular singers across India are invited to glamorize the event with their elegance. The campus surroundings are also very green and not too hot in temperature.
