B.E. in Computer Science and Engineering - Batch of 2029

Offered by CMR Institute of Technology, Bangalore

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Very good college at a very good place. Definitely recommended to others.

Placements: Placements are quite decent here. Almost 7 LPA-9 LPA is the average package offered. The highest this year is 47 LPA in Japan. The college also has subjects related to placements, as well, which give us a head start in our placement journey. And it also has the NAAC A+ certificate.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very modern here. It has a very big ground in the middle, which looks so aesthetic. The hostel rooms have a range of 1-5 sharing rooms. Movie nights, garba nights, etc., also happen in hostels. The food is very good as well.

Faculty: Faculty here are very helpful, give answers to all types of doubts very sincerely, and the exam curriculum is also very doable, and teachers also prepare us well for the exams. They take flip classes and video classes to help students understand better.

The college is better than its competitors and is worth it if you are joining through KCET.

Placements: The highest package for this year is 47 LPA, which I believe is very good. A high percentage of students got placed this year, and the CSE average for this year is 7 LPA, which is less considering the fees of the college, the ROI is nearly 50 percent. The college has a placement cell and provides TYL classes, which make the students placement-ready.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the campus is good, it is green, and there is a ground where you can play. The hostel is the worst part of the college. The mess food is very bad, the Wi-Fi is very slow, and the lift does not work when you need it the most. I am disappointed with the hostel, the 2 sharing hostel fees are 1.72 lacs, and it's absolutely not worth taking a PG instead. Labs are well-maintained.

Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and are very knowledgeable. They are very helpful and are always ready to help you. The college is affiliated with VTU, and that's why it follows the VTU curriculum. The curriculum is good, but it could've been more placement-oriented.

Other: There are a lot of club activities, and the campus is vibrant.

Great faculty and placements.

Placements: The placements are still ongoing for the 2026 batch of the B.E. CSE course. Companies like Kickdrum and LSEG have offered the highest package for CSE and aligned branches, offering 15 LPA. Other companies visiting the campus are Oracle, Cognizant, LTIMindtree, IBM, HP, Bosch, etc. The lowest package is around 3.6 LPA, and the highest is 15 LPA.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are Wi-Fi-enabled. The library is huge, spacious, and open for long hours. Infrastructure overall is very good, and the management is taking steps to improve upon it by building new blocks and buildings for expansion, etc. The CSE department at RNSIT is one of the most active and well-equipped departments on campus. The labs have good systems with fast internet and all the required software, so students can easily work on projects and coding practice. The classrooms are smart-class enabled, which makes learning more interactive and engaging.

Faculty: The teachers of the CSE department are extremely experienced, knowledgeable, and willing to use their time to help guide the students even outside of class hours. They are always open to questions and offer guidance for projects, research papers, etc. The curriculum itself for VTU batch students does not make them industry-ready, but now that the college has been promoted to autonomous status, these improvements can be expected. The faculty provides great notes for study and exam preparation for each and every subject.

Other: Events and fests are organised regularly both within the department and on the entire campus. Other opportunities, like Samsung Innovation Campus training programs, are available to students where they are trained in subjects like AI and can get certified by Samsung. The faculty members are experienced, helpful, and approachable. They not only focus on teaching the syllabus but also encourage students to participate in hackathons, coding contests, and research activities.

Review of Department of Cyber Security.

Placements: The highest package offered is 45 LPA, secured by a student at a global-based company. The average stood at 8.2 LPA, while the lowest is around 3.5 LPA. Around 80 percent of the students got internships during their third year. Many secured internships at global-level companies.

Infrastructure: The cybersecurity engineering department is well-equipped with modern infrastructure to support both academic and practical learning. All classrooms are smart classrooms, featuring projectors, WI-FI access, etc. The department has multiple labs and library.

Faculty: The faculty in our department are well qualified, approachable, and knowledgeable in their respective domain. Most of them hold M.Tech/ Ph.D. degrees. Several got involved in active research or industry collaboration. They are generally supportive and open to clearing doubts.

The college is good for your future.

Placements: A minimum of 90 percent of students are getting placed, and it is one of the best colleges in Bangalore. ECE has the lowest package for the fee structure, and CSE has the highest fee structure. Mostly software engineer roles are offered.

Infrastructure: We will get good food at the college hostel, and the food is good in taste. Room sharing is only 2, and there is always Wi-Fi facility. We can enjoy the atmosphere in the college hostel and in class. The rooms have large televisions to teach and more fans.

Faculty: We will get good teachers, they will support us and help us in studying and in important situations. They are most caring during exams. The whole atmosphere feels good and awesome. Okay for our four years, and we will get good manners.

Other: I chose as my wish. Events and fests are good.

Really good college in terms of faculty and placements.

Placements: Placements are quite decent compared to many other good colleges in Bangalore. Special classes called TYL (Tie Your Places) are held regularly to train students for placement sessions. College is attracting better and better companies every year. Around 85% students get placed every year. ROI is pretty decent for CMRIT.

Infrastructure: Hostels are really good. Well-equipped with modern-day facilities, the college campus is a little compact but still has excellent faculty with wonderful experience. The ambience of the college is superb. The crowd is of all kinds. Attendance is an issue, but that's with most of the colleges, so can't help it.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is as needed. The course curriculum is relevant, which makes the students industry-ready. Semester exams are not that difficult, just like VTU papers. The pass percentage is above 95.

As its KCET rank is 44,000, getting admission in the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) branch of University BDT College of Engineering (UBDTCE), Davanagere, could be out of reach. The closing ranks for CSE at UBDTCE used to be considerably lower in earlier years.
