Campus Life

Very few girls in our college , its residential course so no much scope to stay outside campus, very dare and dashing girl cadets present in our college, culture activities quite common, no sexual harassment in my college, no politics, no economic status issues, all type of state religion and caste people are in my college.

Exams and internals assessment, lab practical and ship visits and so on are frequently happen, surprise test and educational lectures, and so on used to happen on weekly basis, it is as same as normal B.Tech college pattern. Paper was prepared by imu head campus

Admission

In Hindu newspaper my uncle saw the extension date for imu CET, then after I proceeding with all formalities like online application filling, payment of exam fee 1000rs, then soon after I got hall ticket. I attended exam in Vizag, imu campus. In June we got results and in the first case, I didn't get the B.Tech seat so choose B.Sc in nautical science.

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.
