Good placements in 2025, really good infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: 88.5% of students got placed from my course. The highest package is 52 LPA, and the lowest package is 3 LPA. Companies recruited are TCS, Cognizant, Infosys, and many more. Internship percentage is around 80% in companies like Dr. Reddy's, Avigen, and Manna Biotech. Research scientist, biomedical engineer, bioinformatics analyst, bioprocess engineer, and quality control officer are roles offered.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available 24X7. The classrooms and labs have very good infrastructure. College has a very big library, which is a real value for money. The facilities in the hostel are a bit for me, but the food is very good. Medical and sports facilities are great.
Faculty: The quality of the teachers is very good. Faculty members are very knowledgeable, kind, and helpful all the time. The course curriculum makes the student industry-ready, and it's relevant too. Semester exams are a bit difficult, and the pass percentage is around 60%.
Other: Events, fest, campus crowd, connectivity, campus surroundings, scholarship, extracurricular activities, etc., are conducted. They are very good at SRM.

Choose your future wisely.
Placements: 40% of students from my batch were placed. The college offered high placement opportunities, while others chose to higher studies. Many companies from India and outside were at placements. The average package was 3 LPA. The college also provided internships.
Infrastructure: SRM had the best mess and hostel facilities. They had Wi-Fi and the best food, including both North and Southern tastes. There was a hospital inside the campus that provided 24/7 services. The toilets were clean, better water facilities, and study environment, sports, and games.
Faculty: Teachers were helpful, very qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality was perfect. They didn’t interfere in students personal matters and provided complete freedom on campus. They cleared all doubts, helped with exams, and were supportive. Taking online classes if needed.

SRM thoroughly reviewed by a second-year student.
Placements: The placements for my branch are bad. The median package is between 5 to 7 Lacs per annum. The highest it has ever gone is somewhere in the 20 Lacs per annum range; that too could be an off-campus placement. Pharma, virology, and medical fields have requirements for biotechnology individuals.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure for my branch is pretty good and world-class. It is one of the best reasons for doing Biotechnology from SRM. The laboratories and equipment are all up to the mark and modern, which is essential to give us hands-on experience, which is vital in our field. The hostels, on the other hand, are average at best. The first-year hostels are clustered to fit in as many students as possible, but at least there are rooms available, which reduce drastically for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th years. The common washrooms are comparable to railway washrooms, but the attached washrooms are still satisfactory.
Faculty: The teaching is a hit or a miss. The teachers are either good at explaining the concepts, or they just aren't able to impart the knowledge they possess. The faculty members, though, are highly qualified individuals who are doing their own research as well. The course curriculum follows the new NEP; it's as good as it could be, but there's always a huge room for improvement. The assessments are hectic, as we have CTs almost every month, along with assignments and projects adding up to a total of 60 marks for internals. The rest 40 marks are from the end-semesters of 75 marks, which is converted to 40, making the total 100 marks (60+40).
Other: The high-end infrastructure and equipment available for my course at SRM were the leading factors for me to join the course. The fests are good, especially the techno fest Aarush, but the Milan fest is more crowded due to locals also coming to the fest.

Surprisingly good given the fee structure.
Placements: In 2024 placement session, ONLY 1 company came for biotech. If you're considering this stream in SRM, you better be mentally prepared that you'll have to either go for a Master's or look for off-campus placements. The package offered by the company was 3 LPA. None of my biotechnology peers have gotten any internships in biotech.
Infrastructure: Mess food is surprisingly decent. I and my friends genuinely look forward to going to the mess when we are hungry. Materials used are good, and the mess is very clean. The menu is also really diverse, and food in general is as good as mess food goes. The Wi-Fi is pretty good, giving an average download speed of about 5-6 Mbps in hostels and university buildings. Hostels are very clean. Aids come to clean your room and washrooms (including the commode) every single day and clean it properly. Dustbins are everywhere, so you won't see littering in hostel corridors. It’s very clean. Classrooms are decent, clean, and the Wi-Fi works well.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful most of the time, given that you're sincere with them. They check papers with leniency and are understanding. They are knowledgeable and well-qualified for the subject they are teaching. Their English, however, could have been better. Because of the thick Tamil accent, it’s very difficult for a non-Tamil to comprehend what they say sometimes, especially when their English speaking skills are subpar. Biotechnology is VERY RESEARCH-ORIENTED, which is a very good thing. Reading books only for a field as ever-evolving as biotech is not adequate. Exams are fairly EASY-MODERATE, and there is a saying around SRM that scoring a good CGPA (9+) is not a very difficult thing to do around here.
Other: I chose biotech in SRM because there are only a few colleges across India that offer B.Tech courses to PCB students, and out of those, SRM seemed to be the best option given the campus life and the research infrastructure. Events are good. Relevant celebrities show up at fests. Apart from fests, the festival celebrations are also good. SRM MUN is one of the bigger events throughout the year. The crowd is decent and friendly. There is no hint of North-South hostility. Things that could be better: laundry service, curfew time rules (it’s 9 PM for everyone), medical facilities, attendance system, and leave approval system. The location of the college is pretty nice; most people have a mountain view from their windows and greenery is all around. Pollution is minimal because it’s away from the mainland Chennai.

College stands high at both pros and cons.
Placements: 70% of the students were placed and remaining chose higher studies. The lowest package was 2 LPA and the highest was 60 LPA and on average, 5 LPA was offered by top companies like Biocon, Serum, SunPharma, etc. that visited the campus placement and recruited talented students.
Infrastructure: With top-notch research facilities and equipments, labs are completely equipped with a variety of research facilities. Hostels are also pretty clean and well maintained. Food is considerably expensive, and various sports and games are offered like football, cricket, etc.
Faculty: Staff are helpful and knowledgeable, and the quality of education is high. A very well-structured curriculum with advanced learning and industry-ready structures. The end of the semester is competitive and the pass percentage is kept at 50 percent. Exams test our knowledge learned throughout the semester.

In SRM, CSE has more scope than biotechnology. In SRM, placements are not good for biotechnology it's like passion course in SRM. But CSE is very good here, in fact, they have increased the no. of seats in SRM this year, it has a very good placement record. So if you want to sit for placement after
