3.5

The course offered by the institution is an updated syllabus for engineering. The main reason for choosing this college is it is a Govt. autonomous institution with a 70 pass percentage. The college fee is nearly 10000 per year. The merit scholarship is also provided by the Government of Tamilnadu. The faculty member of this institution is mostly they are Ph.D. graduate, and Master's degrees. Engineering courses consist of 8 semesters. Each semester is max three months in duration at the end of each semester University Examination is conducted and it is quite difficult to pass.

Class Size: 250Course Fees: INR 9980 per year

Internships Opportunities

2.5

As I already mentioned that most visitors to our college are IT companies like Zoho, Wipro, go frugal technology, white blue software, and so on. The average package is nearly 4 LPA per annum. The projects done by our students are mostly application-oriented.

Placement Experience

Students who pursuing five and sixth semesters onwards are eligible to attend the placements and internship. Mostly the IT companies are visited frequently and core companies are low. The Highest package is 9LPA. The percentage of college placement is 78 percent. I planned to make higher studies after my degree.

Fees and Financial Aid

The college fees are nearly 10k per year and are one-time payments. You will be assisted by the Government merit scholarship for every student who studying in this college. The placements record of the college is nearly 70 percent with a minimum of 4 LPA.

Campus Life

There are various clubs including the Freshers club, Rotaract club, Leo club, Built club (tie up with IIT Madras incubation cell), News club, and Music club. Installation and valediction program of various club events. Workshops and annual technical and non-technical symposium, Pongal, Diwali celebration. The library consists of more than 5 lakh books and an e-library is also available. A department library is also available for various departments. Sports and extracurricular activities are excellent and our college students won many medals and recognition at zonal, inter zonal level, and state levels. Rotary club and Lions club conduct their inauguration functions. These clubs also help the poor and needy in nearby areas.

Hostel Facilities

The hostel facility is quite poor due to improper maintenance. The meal quality is good. A non vegetarian meal is not available. The registration process for enrolling in a hostel is online/offline. The hostel fee is quite affordable and it's nearly 10k per year.

Hostel Fee: INR 10000 per year

Admission

Admission to this college is purely merit base. You must enroll in Tamilnadu Engineering Admission (TNEA) online and pay the initial amount. As this college is a Govt Autonomous college so admission is based on the mark you obtain in Class 12(Merit base).

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.

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.
