Remarks
The college is good in placements. There's nothing bad in academic.
Course Curriculum Overview
Our college curriculum is based on Course Outcome. Here we follow CBCS (Choice based Credit system) in which we will be able to choose our favourible Courses & staffs. The syllabus for mechanical engineering is updated from 2018 batches which will be more industry and interest specific. Since TCE is government aided college, students have to plan for industrial visits and the college will just provide OD and support to students.
Placement Experience
Almost 90% of the students will be placed in any company in TCE. Majority of the companies that comes for placement are IT companies. Even in IT companies, all the other departments like mechanical, civil, ECE, EEE will be placed more in number. The number of core companies that comes are low and only very few will get placed in core companies. Some of the IT companies that come to TCE are TCS, Infosys, ShopUp, Zoho, Accenture. The institution will be concentrating more on the placements. They conduct placement training programs and mock interviews. Most of thr companies have a general aptitude test, group discussion round, Technical and HR interview.

Admission
I opted mechanical engineering because it's an evergreen course and has a lot of placements and job opportunities. Thiagarajar College of Engineering (TCE) is the best college in South Tamil Nadu and that's what made me to choose this institution. I got a merit management seat in my college for which we have to get an application form, and we have to wait till all the government merit seats are filled in TNAU counselling and then they'll call us based on the cut off marks we have got. If we applied for a merit management seat but got seat in AU counselling itself we shall take the counseling seat and ignore the management application. I have got 193 engineering cut off and applied for merit management quota and waited till September for call. I was 1 month late when i was joining.
Faculty
There are approximately 40 lecturers in mechanical department and almost all are experienced and has PHD qualification. They're very skilled in their specific areas and clear the doubts of the students well. Majority of the staffs have industry certifications
