M.Tech. in Chemical Engineering - Batch of 2024

5.0

My honest review of my college.

Placements: Being a computer science student, there were many job opportunities on the campus in the year I attended to placements. There were like 6500 job placements. There were many companies like Wipro, Infosys, Amazon, and Honeywell. They also offered internships at our college. They offered various amount as a stipend. But on an avergae, there were like Rs 20,000 per month for intern students. Some companies even offered many perks for the students like weekend outing, parties, pickup and drop with cab at our convent time.

Infrastructure: I would rate 4 on 5 for hostel facilities, they were good and provided good facilities. They provided free Wi-Fi, nice and hygienic washrooms. The sweepers sweep the floor daily hostels were maintained good. There were excellent lab facilities at the university, and we could use the labs even after college hours.

Faculty: Faculty members at the college were very helpful. They helped me in all aspects of academics and non-academics. The first year focused on expanding the basic knowledge acquired in class 12 on microeconomics and macroeconomics. In the second and third years, there was a shift in the course structure as you learn the advanced concepts of the two branches of economics as well as understand econometrics, financial, and international economics. Highly qualified faculty members and staffs with average experience served the college with average experience of over 20 years. Curriculum had 2 years duration. M.Tech develops an advancement in the field of technology. Each of the four semesters had six-months duration. Each course will be covered in approximately 40 lecture hours.

My review of this college.

Placements: Students were eligible to sit for placements from the 7th semester. Companies like Accenture, TCS, Infosys, Nutanix, Amazon, Microsoft, Toyota, L&T, Bosch, Cognizant, etc., visited. The highest package during my college time was 28 LPA, and the lowest was 2.7 LPA, with an average of about 4-5 LPA. About 40% of students got placed every year, and the rest mostly got off-campus placements or planned for higher studies in India and abroad. Internships, mini projects, and assignments were assigned to create more exposure and experience for the students as much as possible.

Infrastructure: Stipends were provided for the entire two years of study in the institution as per the college rules. Hostel rooms were decent with all the required facilities, with 2 or 3 sharing, attached and common bathrooms, and also non-AC rooms available. Mess food was hygienic, and the quality was good, but average in taste. Hostels were highly affordable and easily available, with a good number of rooms available for students and inmates every academic year. PG or rented rooms were not that easily available because of the remote location.

Faculty: The goal of biotechnology was to produce drugs by using living organisms such as bacterial cells, yeast, mammalian cells, etc., which were placed in culture to produce substances with pharmacological activity. Faculty members of my department were well-educated, had very high practical knowledge, and were student-friendly. Most faculty members were associate professors. For B.Tech, they conducted three cycle tests and model exams for practical and theory before the university exams, and for M.Tech, two CTs were conducted. CT1 consisted of units 1-2, and CT2 covered units 3, 4, and 5, along with model practical before the university exams.

We have a balcony to their room so that they could enjoy the view and breeze.

Placements: From the third year itself, students start to get placed, and placement continues till the last year. Lot of companies visit the campus like Accenture, Capgemini, Wipro, Cognizant, PTC, NICE, Mastek, Quick Heal, etc. The highest package is 25 Lacs, and the average package is 4 Lacs. Placement percentage is 75 to 80.

Infrastructure: Yearly, a sports meet would be conducted. Inter-school championship is also conducted. Freshers' Day and other cultural festivals are celebrated by the student council without taking money from the students. Clubs conduct their activities every month and give certificates to the participants.

Faculty: Faculty of our college is quite good. The staff is skilled, except some teachers only. We can reach them anytime. Some faculty members are rude, and no one likes them. There are two main exams: in-sem and end-sem, which are university exams conducted by SPPU. Otherwise, they conduct unit tests and mock tests.

SRM Institute of Science and Technology review .

Placements: Almost more than 50 percent of the students in my batch were placed in different companies. The lowest package offered was 2 LPA, and the highest package offered was 4 LPA. The average package is 3 LPA. Some of the top recruiting companies were Biocon, Dindigul Thalappakatti, Britannia, Hatsun, etc.

Infrastructure: The campus is equipped with highly advanced laboratories with proper machinery and equipment. A big central library with physical and virtual learning materials all available for the students. All the classrooms are equipped with Wi-Fi accessibility. The quality of the food available in the hostel is very good and nutritious, with both vegetable and non-vegetarian choices. Other than hostels, the college offers a wide variety of food shops and stalls inside the campus.

Faculty: The faculty members are skilled, well qualified and equipped with the proper skills and knowledge to handle the classes. The teaching quality is very advanced and helps with real-world problems. The learning process is highly focused on making real-world applications on a teaching basis.

Other: I chose food safety and quality management because of my affinity for food science and food quality control. Some of the best things about this course are the spectrum of learning, its application, which is quite wide and its scope in real-world applications. I wish there was more practical learning in the course rather than more theory. A lot of events and festivals are conducted annually by the college as well as the student bodies present on campus.

The college is one of the best in India for studying biotechnology and bioinformatics.

Placements: Industry placement is offered for M. Tech bioinformatics companies like TCS Research, which stands for Life Science, and Dr. Reddy, for Biotech, but many students choose Ph.D. as an option. The batch strength ranges from 30 to 52, out of which about 5 to 10 get a good placement, others opt for a higher research path in India or abroad, and all students in previous batches are engaged in industry or Academia.

Infrastructure: There is an option for AC or non-AC and two- or three-seater rooms. You are provided with a table fan in non-AC rooms. The structure is different for all room types, like the non-AC 3-seater, and for this I pay INR 110000 per year, of which mess charges are INR 50000, which is included in this. You have to give a security deposit of INR 5,000, which you get back at the end of your course. The food quality is quite good, and you get a meal four times. The mess menu changes every month.

Faculty: Our course curriculum was designed in a very innovative and suitable way. It includes all the aspects a master's student has to know. The teaching mostly emphasizes thinking rather than just mugging it up. You always leave with a takeaway message and an orientation towards research after each day. The faculty over here is well qualified, with the majority of them having their higher studies from well-renowned universities around the world like Harvard, Oxford, Stanford, and Price universities, to name a few. The faculty-student ratio is also good. Each faculty member had almost 2–3 students to supervise and around 5 Ph.D. candidates. Class size:-60 Course fees: INR 10600.
