SRM Institute of Science and Technology Faculty FAQs

The below-mentioned are SRM Institute of Science and Technology faculty FAQs:

Q:   How is the faculty at SRM University?
A:

SRM University Kattankulathur has a wide array of faculty comprising of more than 500 teaching staff and more than 1,500 non-teaching staff. Most of the faculty members are highly qualified and Ph.D. holders from some of the top institutes across the world. Many other international faculty visit the campus for guest lectures for academic and research purposes on an ongoing basis. This gives both the students and the faculty greater opportunities for mutual interaction and learning.

Q:   How is SRM Chennai in terms of faculty, infrastructure, placement, etc.? Is it worth going to SRM if you want a bright future?
A:
  • College Infrastructure: SRM has a well-defined layout in terms of infrastructure. The campus is spread over a large area, with all the basic facilities provided. There are huge grounds and indoor courts for sports; the gymnasium is made for the students of the college. The library is technically advanced and has a good collection of books. The classrooms are well maintained with smart boards installed, and the washrooms are clean. The canteen has diverse varieties of food that are hygienic and affordable.
  • Academics: CSE has proven to be a good course for me as it aligns with my interests and liking for computers and programming. The course is well updated, and even the curricula followed in college fall in line with the skills required in the job sector. The course has a lot of research and practicality, which definitely makes one job-ready. The teachers are cooperative and experienced, and they mentor each student at every point.
  • Placements: Approximately 70% of the students get hired in the recruitment drive held by the college. The placement drive is held in the most efficient manner. The average package is around 5 LPA, which is a good kickstart for any student in their respective fields. The college has a placement cell that is responsible for inviting firms to the college and guiding fellow students in getting placed, hence making the college supportive. The placements must be inclusive of all the courses, which is a demerit.
  • Value-for-money: The annual tuition fee structure was a bit on the expensive side, as my yearly fee was around 3 lacs p/a, which might not be affordable for many students. But the quality of services and education, with all the basic amenities, make SRM worth the investment. Personally, SRM is making each penny count.
  • Campus Life: Though the college is isolated from the main part of the city, it is glorious from the inside. There are sports activities in the college and many cultural societies, like dance and music societies. Moreover, there are various clubs that keep on participating in educational competitions. Various seminars are held and several festivals are conducted throughout the year, making college life happen. There's a medical room to handle any emergency as and when it arises!

Balanced in every aspect and focused on placements.

Faculty: Teachers are highly educated, qualified, and knowledgeable. They teach clearly until students understand the concepts properly. The course curriculum is relevant. The semester exams are neither too difficult nor too easy. If students study the respective subjects, they can definitely pass. The pass percentage is around 80–90%.

Good college, great campus life, but you have to study on your own.

Faculty: Faculty members in my section are really bad, they don't know how to teach, except for my Maths teacher who is good, and the Biology teacher is good too. Everyone else only prefers Tamil people and talks to them in Tamil. I have to study everything on my own to recover.

I have a good time learning here.

Faculty: Exams surely are hectic because we do not have much time between tests, and the syllabus being vast poses another issue. However, we also get amazing guidance from our faculty members, who are not just experts in their fields, but also really good human beings.

Faculty depends. Good placements before. Now high, good infrastructure and facilities.

Faculty: It really depends on which semester. The faculty is helpful, but we might have to use our own resources and seek help from the side. The semester exams, I heard, are going to be tough. My first one is in two weeks. The course curriculum is not relevant, but I think it's because it's the first semester. They are teaching me biology and all, Welding, fitting, and all, idk, for job security.

SRM is a massive, vibrant hub spread across 250 acres, with a high-energy, global campus.

Faculty: Examinations followed a structured format driven by university's academic regulations. The academic evaluation operated on a split between internal assessment and the end-semester examination. CT class tests were worth 60% of the total grade, comprising multiple mid-semester tests, quizzes, assignments, and class participation.

SRMIST-KTR is an extraordinary engineering college!

Faculty: Even the spineless students were handled so well by our faculty members that it was so heartwarming to see. Our course taught us various traits that are needed in real life, like advanced AI, building cybersecurity systems, and app development. So, at SRMIST, all the traits of CSE were taught exactly as per industrial demand.

SRM Institute of Science & Technology, Kattankulathur, has the most dynamic faculty members.

Faculty: SRM KTR faculty members are definitely among the best, even among other SRM campuses. Every faculty member I have interacted with during all 4 years has done research in something or the other. From Cyber Security to Data Science to AI, our faculty members who teach all these important CSE subjects are masters.

SRM University detailed review.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and help a lot. If anyone has 75%+ attendance, then it is very easy for them to get an 8.5+ CGPA. Semester exams are medium level. They test critical thinking instead of formulas. Teachers teach so we can learn and not just for the exams.

Extremely good infrastructure and opportunities at SRM KTR.

Faculty: The teachers are all helpful and possess PhDs from reputed universities. They teach quite practically. The course is regularly updated due to which it stays relevant. It makes the students industry-ready by giving them hands-on experience on projects and the updating curriculum adapts to the industry requirements which are then taught to the students. The semester exams are quite average in difficulty. The passing rate is about 80 percent.

Good infrastructure, facilities, average placement support, experienced faculty, and a great campus.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and highly qualified. The curriculum is up to date. The pass percentage for master's students is 50%. There are also a lot of exams. The courses are good, but self-study is required to get industry-ready and placement-ready. You have to go the extra mile for preparation. Semester exams are easy to pass but are very lengthy, and examinations are held frequently.

One of the best colleges in India.

Faculty: My college was INC-approved, so it strictly followed the INC curriculum. Exams were conducted on university campus itself. Attendance was a problem there, but still, students could manage with medical certificates and genuine reasons. Exams were conducted strictly. For nursing students, training was provided at SRM Hospital from the 1st year itself, giving the best exposure in all the departments.
