Remarks

Well ,I believe that everything in this universe has its good and bad SRM is a nice place to grow with ample opportunities to learn outside of the curriculum if you wanna have a great experience , make sure you join a project or a team.

Entrance Preview

I had given SRM JEE exam for gaining entry in to SRM university Chennai i had an AIR 17222 i chose mechanical engineering.

Course Curriculum Overview

1.5

The curriculum is easy the teachers are pathetic don't expect that you will learn anything in the class. But the only good thing about SRM is the no.of student projects and teams. There are around 100 projects run by students. These include almost 15 automobile related teams. There are many clubs fire computer science and many more this is the thing I like SRM for.

Internships Opportunities

Yes our does provide internship to students but it's a long procedure I don't have any idea about the stipend they give or the experience it would be great if you use your own contacts to get one.

Placement Experience

3.5

When it comes to placements almost all get placed in mass recruiters if you have worked on something extra other than the course curriculum towards your interest, you will definitely get the opportunity for yourself. For example students who work in student teams are more prepared compared to other students in facing the industry with their industry relevant knowledge.

College Events

4.5

There are many fests happening in the college throughout the year. Dance , music, comedy, drama, tech, competitions etc we have loads of them this is one thing you can only get in big private colleges you would get all kinds of experience here we have had people from coke studio, Kanan Gill, Kenny Sebastian, John Abraham, Dillip Chabbria etc and other great guest speakers.

Fee Structure And Facilities

I would say that the fees structure is moderate. It's a little expensive than VIT but much cheaper than Manipal. The tuition fees it's 2 lakhs a year and hostel fees depends. Whether you have ac or non ac hostel ranging from 1 lakh to 1.7 lakhs a year.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes our college provides scholarships to students who score and 9.5 GPA in a semester for loan facility you can go to bank within our campus ie central union bank which would help you with the same.

Campus Life

4.5

Well, If you're a girl , SRM is a dream place for you. This is because the skewed girls to boys ratio but it is still way better than other engineering colleges. Rules for in times for girls are much lenient compared to VIT which is like a jail with girls in time being 6 whereas it's 8 in Srm.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Hostel facilities are average every room is shared by 3 people each floor has around 100 people each building has 9 floors there are options whether you want a shared bathroom or not. I would recommend taking non shared bathroom as sometimes people make a lot of mess of the shared bathroom.

Alumni/Alumna

Coming to point of interaction with seniors, there is no issue or anything like ragging this is because of the extremely strict rules about Ragging that no one dares to violate, which is actually pretty good. Otherwise the seniors here are great and helpful .Rest everything depends on the people.

Exam Structure

We have exams almost every 20 days we have a total of 3 test series plus the final exams things are generally chill . It actually depends on how much you study even though you can get good marks studying a night before the exam college timings are from 8 to 4 the classes depend on your time table , we generally have half of our day free 2-3 days a week.

Admission

I got admission through the SRM JEE exam.It is a basic exam after that they will declare your rank only and ask you to come to Chennai for counseling. There you will choose your field with respect to your rank in the exam. I got mechanical engineering at a rank of 17k. For getting CS , you need to have a rank of Under 10k.

Faculty

1.5

Teachers are qualified for the courses but only a few are good which is okay because when you come to college, nobody is going to teach you. You have to study yourself. So it doesn't matter much to most now. Otherwise the facilities at SRM are more than sufficient.

Placement Experience:

Only a mediocre or poor placement opportunity is available, a main factor which has caused the poor placement record is the remote location of the college and small student strength. Because of the low student number, most IT mass recruiters are not ready to come here
