Entrance Preview

No need of entrance test to pursue this course . This is one of the best schools in India in terms of ROI and campus infrastructure. There are quotas for sc, st and obc students. A general category student requires around 70 percentile to get into CIT. The admission process consists of group discussion and interview.

Placement Experience

On an average over 50+ companies visit the campus every Year. Students get a lot of chances to get a job. Companies like IBM,KUKA,Kawasaki and many more hire in thousands and almost many students get placed in various companies each year. The highest offer is over 9.5 lakhs in a Japanese firm.

Campus Life

The university gives you a great exposure to shape up your life for a great future. There's absolutely no racism and everyone is treated equally. This is the only university in Chennai where girls and boys are found in almost equal numbers. In fact girls are encouraged to become entrepreneurs.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Hostel food is great but there are lot of restaurants on the campus. Hostel food would liked by north Indians but south Indians might like the food as it contains a lot of rice and other south Indian dishes and north Indian dishes. There are lot of restaurants outside the campus as well.

External Expense: Rs.7000 - Rs.10000

Faculty

Faculty is great except few. Most of the teachers are friendly and understand the students. The teachers follow modern teaching and encourage students to bring up innovative ideas. Almost once in two weeks, students would take presentations to improve their speaking skills

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.

Placement Training and Career development at CIT

Likes

In my college , I experienced diversed equality and gained more knowledge by training staffs and assessments

Placement Experience:

One thing I really need to appreciate at CIT is its placement training program. The placement team conducts regular sessions on 1. aptitude 2. coding 3. communication skills 4. group discussions and 5. interview preparation which helped me feel more confident during placements. The trainers were friendly and always encouraged us to improve our skills step by step. They provide continuous guidance and feedback throughout the training process. Mock interviews and one to one assessments helped me to understand my strength and weak areas and I work on improvements . These sessions not only improved my technical and communication skills but also boosted my confidence . The placement training team played an important role in preparing me for career opportunities and industry expectation
