Once the top college in Trichy, it faced financial issues leading to a change in faculty, now staffed by alumni with substantial industry and teaching experience in mechanical engineering. The college offers an affordable engineering degree program with a total fee of Rs. 3,20,000, which includes all charges. Annual tuition is Rs. 40,000, plus additional yearly costs for labs, notebooks, uniforms, and transport, amounting to Rs. 20,000. Students can apply for educational loans and scholarships, such as the B.C.
scholarship of Rs. 5500 annually, minority scholarships, and a first graduate scholarship. Fee reimbursements are available for students with over 85% in 12th grade. Despite educational support and funding for programs and industrial exposure, placement opportunities, particularly for mechanical engineering students, are limited. There are no visits from mechanical or software companies for recruitment, and only one student secured an off-campus placement with an undisclosed salary. More than 70% of students do obtain jobs, with a minimum package starting at Rs.
20,000. However, internships appear lacking, as students are generally unaware of them. Campus jobs are accessible, making the college a viable choice for middle-class families.
