What is an honest review of SSEC Chennai?

Students and alumni claim that SSEC Chennai is decent, but the amount of exposure in terms of projects and collaboration is pretty less compared to other universities like SRM, VIT, SSN or Anna University (CEG Guindy). The placements are average here. Students would prefer to study at the above-mentioned universities, as compared to SSEC Chennai.

How is Sri Sairam College of Engineering Chennai, overall?

SSEC Chennai is very strict and the worst in education. One may not be able to learn anything apart from your engineering text books. They are very strict in dress code, discipline, education, and talking with girls. One cannot take leaves without permission of HOD, and you can't skip classes at all.

Are there any extra-curricular activities for students at SSEC Chennai?

Students take part in various kinds of sports, NCC and NSS programs. Students may even take part in various club activities and events arranged by the college authorities.

Which is the best college for placements, Panimalar Engineering College or Sri Sairam Engineering College?

As compared to SSEC Chennai, Panimalar is better for placements. If you perform well and score above 7.5 CGPA, you will get good placements. Apart from whatever you have been taught at your institute, learning Python amongst other skills could help get placements at both institutes.

A honest and recent review

Likes

The supportive entrepreneurship eco system. They will support you if you are interested in starting a company.
The environment will be cool and you can see so much of green scenarios everywhere like living in an forest.
The experience of the staffs is so good. Most of the faculties here are phD holders.

Dislikes

They wob't allow boys and girls to interact which is a very backward thinking.
Too many strict rules are followed if you are in college hostel. Otherwise you'll be free.
You'll get less number of leave days than your friends in other colleges.

Internships Opportunities:

There is two ways of getting internships. You can get it by yourself. The second way is the department you are studying will help you to get an internship in nearby companies. But it purely based on the deparment initiatives. But mostly you will get internships through college. There is more projects are going on. You can join any programs as you co-curricular acitivity, so you can get much practical experience.

WAKE UP TO REALITY!!

Likes

toilets could be maintained rest of the architecture is well built
campus life has been better if they increased the social interactions could be far better
i have opted for the masters so i have declined management

Dislikes

mainly if there are 5 toilets then the three are damaged mostly and fans could have been work faster
boys boys talk, girls girls talk if boys girls talk then the management talk
but when i heard it form my friend they intended that if they dont like the company too they have been forced to accept the company.

Placement Experience:

as the information i have heard from the friend and seniors the placement compared to boys and girls , girls have more placement in the history ever happend and package is under 3l and they have bonds compartively more than 3 years and many have feel not comfortable.

Sad truth

Likes

I got good friends and social interactions with students from various departments.
The staffs especially from cse department are too friendly.
Food and snacks in the canteen are good.

Dislikes

The management is worse in Sairam. Students are not free to talk and interact with their opposite gender.
The management always finds a way to get money from the students. They put fine for unnecessary reasons.

Internships Opportunities:

I got an internship at ICM through thozhil as a Web developer. It is a startup company. They do counselling for student who are planned to study abroad and give guidance and make them get a seat in the foreign universities.

Electrifying Progress: Sri Sairam Engineering College, Dept. of EEE

Likes

The infrastructure of Sri Sairam Engineering college is mind-blowing. It is a 45 acres compound with several greeneries and a best environment to learn with.
The college is integrated with a Central Library, named "Dr.A.P.J. Abdul Kalaam Digital Library" which is a massive warehouse of various engineering books and digital learning resources.
The most attractive feature of Sri Sairam Engineering College is "The Incubation center" which is inculcated with several modern techs such as 3D printing, Drone tech, PCB design and rendering, etc..

Dislikes

The rules of the college including strict formal attire is not reliable for everyone, as the college life span is the only phase at which students as teenagers have their right to decide upon their attire.
Core departments get very less core placement companies, as most of them are placed in IT sector.
Once of the drawback of the college is its location. Its too far from the main areas to catch-up with.

Internships Opportunities:

Our college has signed up MOUs with various industries such as Ambattur industrila Estate, Thirumudivakkam Industrial Estates, L&T Educational, etc..Minimum 45 days of internship is mandatory to get your graduation certificate. The internships should only be in offline mode.
