The course structure is pretty relevant. It's just that they keep updating it based on industry requirements. I have had DSA, Cloud computing, IOT, Computer Networks in my coursework. They keep it open for you to choose IT or Core.

When I was studying, it costed me 70k per semester, 1200/- for semester exam fees. But as far as I know the fees have increased due to the fact that most department now are NBA accredited. Although, the college does provide financial assistance for students who lost a parent or are financially struggling. I have had a student in my class who was completing his education free of cost after 1st year. For campus employment, I think there are two options IEM IDC and IEM LABS where you can be a part of R&D team and help develop projects and register patents. You can publish research papers, and that money will be refunded by college, and I am not sure but think you get money from college for registering a patent too.

Honest detailed review of IEM

The general fees structure is 7,10,000 overall. 85k per semester. But here's the catch they charge more from some students depending on situation..my own friend paid 2lakh extra. Those who want to study cse only in iem and is fixed and if the seats are already full they'll charge extra money and will admit them in cse(aiml) or cse(csbs)..others and not core cse.. literally looting people like that. And about campus placement..most are in IT no matter your stream.. and internship are given only to cse and sometimes ece, others have to find by themselves.
