Master of Computer Applications (MCA) - Batch of 2023

Offered by School of Science and Humanities, SRM Kattankulathur

4.2

All the faculty are highly trained in their fields.

Placements: A lot of companies like Amazon, Microsoft, JP Morgan Chase Co. , Adobe, Airbnb, Axis Bank, Barclays, Celebel, Cisco, etc. visit the institute and provide job opportunities for various roles and positions. The average package goes around INR 9–11 lacs per annum and the highest for my course students recorded is around INR 19 lacs per annum. The whole placement scenario for the MCA department revolves around the factor of competition with BTech/BE students and student skill sets and potential. Around 60–70% of students get placed on-campus and the remaining either go off-campus or further their studies.

Infrastructure: Hostel rooms are decent with all the required facilities, with 2 or 3 shared bathrooms attached and common bathrooms; no AC rooms are also available. The food is hygienic but the quality is good but average in taste. Hostels are highly affordable and easily available, with a good number of rooms available for students and inmates every academic year. PG or rented rooms are not that easily available because of the remote location of the college. Hostel Fee: INR 65,000 per year.

Faculty: I chose this course because I was interested in the field of computer applications. The course curriculum was up-to-date and as per the updated syllabus. RCOEM faculty members are well educated and all the faculty members are helpful. There was a daily, monthly, and term exam according to the university pattern. Class size;-66 The course costs INR 109,000 per year.
