Remarks

The college will be heaven if you make it one.If you can be social you'll have a wonderful life in REC and if you want more marks REC is the perfect destination for that.

Course Curriculum Overview

Exams are conducted only for marks not to check our knowledge or to improve our industry-specific knowledge.Our college is so keen about the mark percentage everything will be provided if you have more marks like leave,OD's and etc. scoring low Mark will make you to attend classes after 3pm or on Mondays.

Placement Experience

Strength of the college is their placement and the placement training department. I don't know the exact percentage of the placement but most of the students will get placed as I heard. Before the placement everyone will have a placement training and everyone will learn a computer language

College Events

4.5

Every department will have their own symposium which will be conducted by the students. The College will conduct a culturals called "RECharge". Every event will have technical and non technical events which attracts students from other colleges also

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fee structure is quite expensive for us. I think they accept DD but I have applied for a loan which will pay the fee. As I came in sports Trial there was no extra charges. If you come by counseling the fee will be really feasible. Feasible and expensive depends on the family income right?

Fees and Financial Aid

I have applied for a education loan.which iis in process right now. There is no criteria we have to submit any land documents to have loan above 4lakhs

Campus Life

3.5

Sports are supported less.the support they give is OD.Every athlete should practice with their own interests. There is no coach for any game.there will be no financial support for bus fares and accommodation fares and food. Labs are pretty good in Rec. There's a club called debating union which will make students to participate in debate competitions

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Yes I am in my college hostel.There are two hostels new and old hostel.new hostel will be spacious and infrastructure will be nice whereas old hostel rooms will be so small and food is not a problem here.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Seniors are the main reason to have a good life in REC. There is no such thing as ragging. For sports seniors will be our coaches.they are the main reason I still continue in rec.

Admission

I got admission by sports trial conducted by the college.For sports trial they only give certain courses from that courses I took ECE because it have a wide range of jobs and fields. I chose this institution because of their placement percentage and I have many Senior friends there.

Faculty

Faculties of REC are really good. Especially some faculties will make us to think and improve our creativity. Some faculties will be so keen about the marks.For them marks is the only thing you have to get in college. Many faculties here hold PhD and others are pursuing their PhD now.

Overall Good Experience at EEC

Likes

good infrastructure, clean campus and well equipped classrooms and labs.
Faculty members are supportive and explain concepts clearly with practical examples.
Good placement opportunities, career guidance and opportunities to participate in activities.

Dislikes

The workload can be huge sometimes, especially during examinations and project submissions.
some subjects could include more practical and industry-oriented learning
More campus activities and student interactions opportunities would improve campus life.

Placement Experience:

Students can join job drives from the 7th term. Many firms visit the campus for jobs and offer roles in tech and other fields. The pay varies by firm and role. EEC has a good job rate and gives help for job prep. After my degree, I plan to work in the tech field and grow my skills.

This is the best college overall

Likes

The curriculum provided is really nice and understandable.
It is relevant and is effective as well.
The boy girl ratio is on the other hand a little less as in 45:15.

Dislikes

The way some facilities behave with students is really bad especially in our branch.
Some facilities are too rude and they often don’t want to listen to students point of view

Placement Experience:

Students are open to campus placements from 2nd year onwards. There are many companies who visit such as Delloite, Accenture, Cognizant, TCS, Amazon, NatWest, Nokia, etc. Highest package offered is 42 lpa and lowest is maybe 2-4lpa. Around 90% of students get placed here. My plans is to get a job through campus recruitment. Currently I got an internship through campus recruitment in Cognizant so the recruitment is quite nice here.
