Akhilesh's Review On Sri Jayachamarajendra College Of Engineering - [SJCE], Mysore

The overall experience in the college is good.If the college management reduces the academic workload on the students then this college would be one of the best colleges throughout the nation

As per my knowledge admission is through CET, COMED-K or management. I got seat through CET .I didn't knew much about this college before joining except that it is one of the top colleges of Karnataka. There is no interview but after getting seat you should come to college for document verification and thereby confirming your seat. I chose Electronics and Communication because i like electronics and wanted to know more about this subject.

The course was not that good as i excepted because the main focus was given on mugging up theory without understanding the practical use of it. The EC course is very hectic.There a lot a labs and Tutorials. Especially in the third year we have to projects in almost all subjects and even for labs we have do separate projects.There are no Research Initiatives taken by the Institute as of now

The placement cell provides some internships .The internships are usually after 4th year and hence i don't know much about it.

The placements are very good. In our department around 80-90% of the students who have applied for placements will get placed (including both mass and core companies) .The average package in our department is around 5 lakhs per anum. The maximum package from our department is around 15 lks/anum .Usually software companies provide higher pay compared to core electronics companies.

Our college associations like IEEE-SJCE, CSI, LCC, ED-BOARD conducts various technical events .Also we have my annual cultural fest called JAYCIANA which is usually held in the month of April. Jayciana is mainly organised by the student council along with the help of college authorities.

In the 1st and 2nd year the fee structure was normal but after the implementation of GST the fees has increased by approximately 20k i.e for the 1st two years i used to pay Rs.48k as my annual fees but for 3rd year i paid Rs.69,980.Again the fees mainly depends on the mode of admission .Like for example if u join through SNQ (Super numerary Quota) in CET then your fees will be around 20k and if u join through COMED-K ,the fees will be usually around 1.5k.

As far as i know there are no scholarships provided by the college but u can apply to various scholarships provided by the governments through the college.

In our college, we have a separate football and hockey ground and also we have the basketball court, tennis court, badminton court and also we have a gymnasium. Our college has excelled in the various sports events. Its a good college with a vast campus.The ambiance is good. The college mainly focuses on academics with the little emphasis on extra-curricular activities.

I stay in Hostel. Our hostel is clean since it is new and hence the ambiance is good .There is no single rooms in our hostel and also there are no attached bathrooms for the rooms. There are number of PG's near the college .The hostel fees is around 60k per annum .The food quality is decent but you will get bored after 1st year since the menu is same throughout the week and like any other hostel lite you will u prefer eating at hotels rather than eating at your hostel mess.

As far i know only our college in our entire state has 5 internals for one semester i.e we have 3 written tests and the other 2 may be quiz, seminar,projects,case study etc. This means that you will have written exams every 1st week of a month and then you will have these quizzes ,project submissions in between the 2 consecutive exams. Finally u will have a Semester End Exam (SEE) in the end of each semester. Both the internal and SEE will have equal weight age.

Like any other college there are some faculties who are well versed in their respective domains and also there are some faculties who know very little about about their subject.In our department there are quite a lot of faculties with Ph.d degrees.Again the higher qualifications does not means better teaching. Some faculties are very interactive and help students in their curricular and co-curricular activities and you can approach them without hesitating but also some faculties who gets annoyed when students ask questions during their lecture.
