Remarks

College management of K. J. Somaiya college of engineering is very good and I think it is one of the best college in Mumbai.

Entrance Preview

I took MHT-CET and scored 166 out of 200.I opted for this college because it is one of the best engineering college in Mumbai.

Course Curriculum Overview

As the college is autonomous the course syllabus is somewhat different from Mumbai University syllabus. Also as I am still in the 1st year, the syllabus of all branches is same. But from 2nd year onwards our syllabus will be changed according to the course opted. I would assess 8 out of 10.

Internships Opportunities

Yes. K. J. Somaiya College of engineering do provide internship. But as I am a student of 1st year, I don't have experience of internship and don't know about the stipend. But I am pretty sure it'll be more than what other colleges provide.

Placement Experience

K. J. Somaiya College of engineering is best known for placements. It is just because of the companies which come here for recruitment in the last few years. The students are well placed in prestigious and famous companies. Average package is approximately 4.20 lacs per annum.

College Events

K. J. Somaiya is also very popular because of the events that are celebrated in our college. Technical festivals like Abhiyantriki, cultural festivals like Symphony and many more see celebrated here and students get enough of opportunities to show their skills.

Fee Structure And Facilities

K. J. Somaiya college of engineering has an expensive fee structure. I think it has the highest fees than other colleges. But it also has seats reserved for economically backward students like TFWS(tuition fee waiver scheme) seats which help those students.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes. K. J. Somaiya college of engineering offer many scholarships like Tata scholarship which provides 50,000 rupees to economically backward students on purely merit basis.

Campus Life

4.5

Gender ratio in K. J. Somaiya college of engineering is close to one because the number of girls is equal to the number if boys. Campus life is pretty much exciting. K. J. S. C. E has best workshops on robotics, internet of things, etc and carries out many extra curricular activities. Sports is also encouraged here.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

I don't stay in hostel. But my friends do stay in hostel and they say that hostel of K. J. Somaiya college of engineering is pretty nice. The rents of hostel is also convenient. It provides fast speed internet and lot more facilities. Mess food is also good.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Yes. Senior students and alumni of K. J somaiya college of engineering is very helpful. They always encourage junior students.

Exam Structure

The exam structure is completely different from that of Mumbai University. It does not extend End semester examinations upto one month long. Everyday schedule of lectures and laboratory practicals is also pretty much convenient unlike other colleges of Mumbai University.

Admission

I got admission in this college through CAP rounds. I got a seat in this college in the 1st CAP round itself and I took admission here. I got a TFWS seat here so I freezed this college and went to take admission on the first day of admissions. My admission process was completed on that day only and I think it was on 31st of July, 2016.

Faculty

The faculty of K. J. Somaiya College of engineering is very helpful as it is one of the best engineering college in Mumbai. I would scale faculty of our college on 8 out of 10 for being very much helpful. I think our college has one of the best faculty.

Likes

The campus of the college is vast with a natural environment
Many facilities like library, sophisticated labs, and classrooms are provided by the college
The Teachers cover each and every point of the syllabus and guide the students.

Dislikes

The syllabus is a little bit outdated, that is some points in the syllabus may seems boring and not applicable in the real world.
The Teachers should use the right techniques for teaching which makes the students more engaging in the class.
The menu of the canteen must contain some health option in a budget friendly way.

Placement Experience:

The campus placement is decent in the college as compare to other colleges of the city . many companies visited the college every year to hire the skillful engineers from the college and offer them a good amount of package. The option of the offcampus palcement is also there for the students of the other colleges.

Journey of passion in DPCOE

Likes

I really liked the infrastructure of the college its very nice and has good environment .
DPCOE is famous for its sports , it has massive turf where kids of 4 to 5 age has their matches
Also i like my department , as i am an automobile engineering we need most practical knowledge , this college offers a big workshop just for us an also yearly event for automobile students . Also clubs are there which has reputation of national rank

Dislikes

I kind of felt that faculty can be biased sometimes also do not care what and how we want to study .
Watchman can be little rude sometimes , also informing that their are exam coming in next week are to be informed at leat 10 days before. I have a suggestion of preparing acadamic calender of year

Course Curriculum Overview:

Soo ever since kid i was interested in bikes this interest was all for me to take this course , my father is very bike enthusiast and it came down to me , i could easily take mechanical and other engineering cause these are common courses which involves automobile , but since i wanted to follow my passion , i wanted to do specialization in automobile itself and DPCOE was offering this course with great facilities and knowledge providing us a path in this lane of career in this field. According to me curriculum prepares us quite well as they conduct workshop which are relevant to outside world where we'll be working. If there were more practical workshops for us to work on would be great cause automobile engineering is all about practicals rather than theoroticals Professor should try teaching in physical part rather than taking lectures and explaining the concept by just words

College campus, it is big, not much conjusted, good nature friendly
Freedom upto some level, no uniforms, no ID compulsion unless it is an exam
Events,every now and then there are events in college, cultural club is also too good here👍

Dislikes

Faculty is not much well qualified or well trained I would say
Hectic curriculum, boring schedules and quite unlivable
Labs and classrooms are too old, infrastructure is very old

Placement Experience:

Yes there is placement cell of STES which is no different than other tier 3 engineering colleges offering a tier 3 average package depending on who is the recruiter. Students become eligible for campus from 3rd year of their degree. Highest package is something around 55 lakhs offered to a computer engineering student,and average is just like I said for a tier 3 college 5-6 lakhs(above or below). Almost everyone gets placed in the company but some might not.

Campus is huge and there is to much space for walk and greenari
Affordable price in cantin same we eat outside.
Not that much strict environment than many of the college.

Dislikes

Campus is huge but is mostly empty need of development.
Need of infrastructure and sports facility for students.
Need of contact no. Of emergency contact of the staff.

Placement Experience:

I talk with most of the senior and faculty and placement cell start of 3 rd year you will get internship opportunities and and in 4 th year you will get placement opportunity. But senior told me off campus placement preparation must be go on you will find good opportunity. Highest package is 12 lpa and average is 4 lpa is good for freshers.

Canteen is good but they must increase their staff.
Class should be sound proof.noice from outside disturbs.

Some departments here were really great like ETC and Mechanical with a unique culture going on
AIML and AIDS being new branches here are still doing their job very well for the students

Dislikes

The Students section not really tends to help ,as i saw many financially weak students facing the problem of 1 time payment fees and their request for part payments option is always rejected
Infrastructure is decent but in summer season the water coolers are just useless there ,no cooler will give you cold water

Course Curriculum Overview:

Some courses were to the point like IOT was well designed and DSA too with java programming side by side ,still as i said AIML is new branch and needs much enhancements ,the areas where they can improve was always practicals and labs those were always taken casual as i remember

I couldnt apply to many colleges, since my score wasnt upto mark. This college was like a second chance. I have seen students with marks as low as ground accepted into this college. Admission is altough completely merit based, just with less marks there is a possibility of not securing your wanted branch....Read More

I would say, it's upto you as to how you make the most out of the opportunities you get at the college.Personally I felt the experience to be rewarding, made great connections and experienced beautiful moments during all those 4 years of Engineering.KJSCE has a well maintained beautiful campus, surely amongst the best in Mumbai. Good sports amenities and facilities. Good engineering crowd, many gujjus because of the minority quota, so you will have to deal with hearing Gujarati, a LOT. Though I don't know about other departments, but the Mechanical engineering department indeed had smart students. The Mechanical Engineering department boasts the best Formula Student team in India (at least when I graduated it was). They even had many other teams which participated in BAJA, Shell Eco Marathon, Robocon etc. However, the one thing common across all the departments is that you can find the alumni in top colleges like Purdue, Georgia Tech, UMich Ann Arbor, NYU, CMU, Cornell etc. pursuing their Masters.A few cons are that there's no cutting edge research going on for the geeky types, won't get funding for projects easily, shit placements. Being in the heart of Mumbai, if a college can't bring in top companies, it's a shame. There's a lot of talent but they aren't given great placement opportunities. Majority of the students find it on their own through their connections. (Accenture, TCS & Infosys aren't considered great opportunities by me).The college has become autonomous and thus I hope it takes some lessons from Universities like BITS and IITs so as to introduce a much more diversified learning exposure, internships, student exchange programs with top universities, etc. It's important that students are exposed to subjects that matter in the real world along with the core engineering curriculum. Introducing a good curriculum can attract consulting and finance companies too for placements.Anyways if you get admitted here, you won't regret it....Read More
