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!

Is SRM worth the money in the long run?

Infrastructure: Hostels vary in quality a lot depending on which one you pick, but hostels and mess are hygienic compared to other colleges. Mess has a good variety, but the quality of food goes down the further down the semester you are. They also provide a gym, which usually stays crowded but has good equipment.

Good college overall but very crowded. Good for college life.

Infrastructure: Classes, even the most basic ones for first years, are all equipped with big smartboards for better learning. The buildings reserved for regular classes of 2nd year onwards also have great AC and an elevator. All buildings are equipped with lifts. Labs are also well-equipped with powerful computers. The library has a high-tech verification system and plenty of inventory. Wi-Fi is great in hostels as well as in classrooms. Speed may often cross 1 Gbps. Mess is okay.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of classrooms is okay, but it should be improved. It should concentrate more on labs and old classrooms to make us feel better.

No doubt in infrastructure, but not happy with placements and facilities being a little.

Infrastructure: Campus-wide high-speed Wi-Fi is accessible 24/7, but at peak hours, it works slowly. It's accessible in classrooms, libraries, hostels, labs, etc. Well-equipped labs for all departments, like CEE, ECE, and mechanical. Comfortable learning environment overall, and air-conditioned classrooms in many buildings.

Satisfied with the infrastructure and good experience here.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is really good. The library is really big and the food quality is decent. If you are not the kind of person who finds flaws in everything then you can survive here easily. Even if you're like that then you can buy the premium hostel its food is top of the line and you can have that. Sports events are also conducted here. You can play table tennis and many games near the hostel area too.

Is SRM worth spending our time and money on?

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and hostel facilities are top-tier. Classrooms have access to a smart board. We can access the college Wi-Fi from anywhere in the college and hostel, and it can only be used for educational purposes. The hostel is also quite good, and the food they provide is also quite good. They take into consideration both North and South students. Medical facilities are good as there is a hospital inside the college. Sports facilities are also very good.

A quick review for SRMKTR.

Infrastructure: The quality is above average compared to other private colleges. There is Wi-Fi, a library, and tons of other labs like semiconductor, electrical engineering, and many more available. The quality of food is really good considering other colleges. There is even an SRM hospital nearby and other sports and games are also available here.

Beautiful campus but with strict attendance policy and unbearable heat.

Infrastructure: Course facilities are top-notch with the latest infrastructure. Most of the hostels are not in good shape. They are maintained but are poorly build but in most of the hostels AC is attached. In fact in most of our classrooms AC is there to handle the heat.

Overall review of SRM from an ambitious students' perspective.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure here is abundant. The labs are really good and the equipment too is really good in comparison to other private universities. Of course, you cannot expect the same about professors and teaching staff, but there are a few professors who are elite and know what they are doing. I have been to many IITs like Madras, Bombay, and Delhi, and none of them have better hostel food than SRM. I myself was surprised by this, but it's true. The food here is actually good, much better than other ...

Lovely days at my college.

Infrastructure: Labs and classrooms are actually pretty good if you opt for CSE, as the new building TP 2 is highly advanced. The library is also pretty good, with a nighttime study facility. Hostels are expensive, and the hostel staff is pretty annoying. You have an appointment at 9 o’clock, so beware of that.

My college is asia number one of tamilnadu.

Infrastructure: Food is available in the hostel and is strictly maintained. Students have fixed discipline and are given time for breaks in the main canteen.

About good and enjoyable college.

Infrastructure: The main thing I would like to mention here is library, over 4 lakhs books are placed in the library including IAS, IFS, IPS, central and state government aspirants can also use it. The gym is overall good. Campus timing is 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, depending on the day of the order and departments. Security is very strict here so students can't do any unnecessary activities inside the campus.
