My honest review of SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Kattankulathur.

Placements: Placement opportunities were offered on campus. Internships and placements were good. The college had a well-established placement process. It provided the necessary support to students through a separate placement cell. Companies like BCG, Deloitte, EY, PwC, Axis Bank, Fidelity, ICICI Bank, and HDFC Bank were among the top recruiters. The highest package offered to our batch was 41.6 LPA. The average package during the campus drive was 5 LPA. Roles offered included consulting, sales and marketi...

Review of SRM University, KTR and campus life.

Placements: Most students get placed in sales and call center jobs. The package is not very high and only covers basic needs. Sometimes even that is not enough. Only one company offers a package of 10 LPA, but it is highly competitive and selects only one student. Companies like Coffee Day, Aditya Birla, American Bank, and TCS visit the campus for placements.

Worth a shot if you are good at grasping opportunities.

Placements: The placements are decent if you know how to grab opportunities. The college provides plenty of chances and exposure. You just need to ensure that you are capable enough to hold onto them.

We have good faculty, hostel, and hospital facilities, & a safe campus life with all new equipment.

Placements: They provide fewer placements in the Visual Communication course. Only one or two companies are visiting. However, other courses have better placement opportunities. In my course, there are no direct placements, so students have to try on their own. Our staff members are connected on WhatsApp and inform us about companies and job updates whenever someone asks.

SRM KTR B.Tech ECE-Data Science review.

Placements: Currently at the start of the 3rd semester as per my knowledge B.Tech ECE with Data Science has above average placement but B tech ECE has good placement. The highest package for ECE is 38 LPA and the average is 7 LPA-8 LPA. For placement you should maintain a CGPA above 7 and have above 60 percent in 10th and 12th class. Faculty members are good and the classroom is good but the place is crowded like there is a minimum of 10,000 intake each year.
