Which is the best, RMK Engineering College or Rajalakshmi Engineering College?

SS
Sudhakar Sharma Posted On : July 1st, 2021
Studied at Rajalakshmi Engineering College

In terms of teaching, both Rajalakshmi Engineering College and RMK are good. The faculty is well qualified who are dynamic and many of them are Ph.D holders. REC is good in terms of exposure and extra co-curricular activities, compare to RMK.

RMK has a mess in which you get good non-veg food with desserts along with tea and snacks in the evening. But REC has 3-4 canteens inside and outside which gives you good quality of food but the only negative point is that they don't serve non-veg food.

REC is lenient when compared with RMK in terms of dress code, communicating with your classmates, using phones and laptops. Campus ambiance is good in both REC and RMK. Now the REC campus has been renovated and it has more greenery when compared to past days.

In terms of placement at RMK, you will get several opportunities for IT companies and limited offers for civil and mechanical. REC provides a lot of training programs and ensures that each student gets placed. Some of the recruiters are TATA, WIPRO and the list goes on.

Which one is best: the RMK engineering college or the Sri venkateshwara engineering college around Chennai?

AM
Arjita Majumdar Posted On : June 1st, 2021
Sri Venkateswara Engineering college (SVEC) 2019

Sri Venkateswara Engineering College (SVEC) is better than RMK engineering college around Chennai. One of my cousins being part of the institute has her own opinions regarding the same, let me share some of them which will give you a clear idea. 

  1. You will have a good standard of peers that will improve your exposure. It will help in developing quite a number of contacts.
  2. If you are planning to pursue your post-graduation, then enroll in SVEC. More than 30% of the students plan it (Post Graduation) early in their career. 
  3. In terms of placements, you should possibly have no second thoughts, because SVEC is the best, only after SSN.
  4. Besides, SVEC also comes with a brand value that can add up to your exposure.
