Remarks
The admission process was extremely streamlined and easy. All the information about admission can be found on the college website. We had to fill out a form on the day of admission which included all our data and was used throughout the course.
Course Curriculum Overview
The Couse curriculum is the same for all the colleges under Pune University. What makes the difference is the way it is taught and how the faculty presents it to the students. In my experience, the faculty is highly qualified, extremely helpful, and supportive toward students who want to do extracurricular activities. I chose this course because I always wanted to work in the field of Robotics, which was very well reciprocated by the college as it has a number of Clubs, viz. RoboCon, RoboClub etc. We had a class test almost every 2 weeks.
Internships Opportunities
Multiple companies offer internships to students. The Placement office helps students find summer internships in small startups as well as MNCs. I was interning in a Startup called IoTIoT.in, which works in the AI space and created an AI-based Smart Camera and software used in Machine learning etc.
Placement Experience
The placement in the college is a mixed bag. Students are eligible to appear for on-campus placements after the 6th semester. Most of the MNCs visited our college and hired a lot of students in bulk. Companies like TCS, L&T, Cognizant, and Wipro. A lot of smaller companies also visited. the highest-paid package is around 10LPA and the average is around 4LPA. Almost everyone who appears for the placements is placed. My plans after getting the degree include working for a couple of years and then going abroad for my Master's.
Fees and Financial Aid
In the years I attended MESCOE, there was a slight fee hike of roughly 10% in 4 years. There are a few low-paying jobs available on campus. One can work in the library or assist a teacher in doing small tasks like marking the attendance etc.
Campus Life
There were 3 tech fests every year, each organized by different streams, viz. Computer, E&Tc, and Mechanical. Each would have a different theme and different aspects depicting the core course. The library was well equipped and if any book was unavailable, the staff would make it a point to get it at the earliest. Each classroom has a projector and is well lit. The college has a very active sports life, including sports like Basketball, Badminton, Football, Cricket, etc. The college has multiple Clubs which encourage the students to be a part of them and promote hands-on learning. Clubs like RoboClub, Baja, RoboCon, AstroClub are a few of the popular ones.
