Remarks

Expect a chill four years and nothing more. Don't come expecting world class education cause you will not get that. However you'll get lots of memories and good times and a good college life.

Entrance Preview

It's a private college so they have their own test. 2 formats, online and offline. I gave the offline one back in 2015. The test was easier than that of VIT's . Most of the exam was 12th syllabus. If you don't get a good rank you can always get the stream you want by paying extra.

Course Curriculum Overview

1.5

It's pretty standard for most colleges, except for a couple of electives which you can opt for starting from the second year now, previously it was third year so there has been some improvements in the respect of curriculum but still lags behind the world.

Internships Opportunities

No they won't help you in that field, you will have to get one on your own every time you're required to. It can be stressful but it's not that difficult, you can find your way around the hassle.

Placement Experience

Placements are above average, but nothing to be proud of. This is in relation to colleges across India which are private or state run(not comparing to IITs and NITs and BITs).

College Events

As a part of a big university, the events are pretty huge, national level, with a big budget often some stars come for promotions as well.

Fee Structure And Facilities

As expected from a private college, it's expensive.The base fee starts at 1.8 LPA which is when you have a decent rank for the field you want. If you don't have a decent rank then the annual fee goes upto 3.5lakh.

Hostel Facilities

1.5

Everyone moves out of the hostel after the first year and then the real fun begins. But if you haven't stayed in a hostel before, strongly recommend the hostel experience you'll make memories for life.

Exam Structure

Apart from the first month of every semester, you have a series of Class Tests of Mid-semester exams or Semester exams coming up in the span of every two weeks. I won't lie, you get used to it,almost immune to anything and everything that can happen to you.

Faculty

It's a huge college so the no. of teachers is pretty big as well. As a result, you'll get a mix of all sorts of faculty. Some are highly qualified professors while others are SRM graduates who came back to SRM to teach.

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

Genuine review

I have written the srmjee exam. So I got a rank of 6k. So my admission process was on the first day. Actually, on the first day, people having below 10k ranks got seats. The admission process is simple. Before going to admit they will ask us to bring mark sheets of srm jee, inter board exams. And tc and all and then we should wait still until our turn comes then have to submit our files. Then we will be sent to a room where we have to select our branch after that . have to submit a dd of two lakh fifty thousand rupees along with a ten thousand dd as admission fees. So after submitting that dd our seat will be reserved and we got admission for College. And for this admission process, we can go to any srm branch. it's not mandatory that if we want admission to a certain branch. Then we have to go to that branch admission. For people who gets an srm jee rank below a hundred, they will be given a hundred percent scholarship. And above 10 k rank people for cse 1 lakh extra fees....Read More

REVIEW OF SRM ENGINEERING COLLEGE

I have chosen to take admission only in the SRM Engineering college because it is one of the oldest and best known centres for higher education in India. It has a legacy of 10 years as a College and is proud to have trained some of the best minds. The eligibility criteria for admission in all the Btech programmes in the SRM Engineering College is that students have to qualify for their 10+2 from a recognised board with a 50% aggregate. Additionally, students must have studied Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry/ Biology/ Biotechnology as the major subjects in 12th. The admission is purely based on the performance in the SRM Joint Engineering Entrance Examination (SRMJEE) conducted by the SRM Engineering College. The candidates are short-listed based on their performance in the entrance examination and will be called for counselling if got selected....Read More

Detailed review of SRM

I had given many competitive exams and got rank in SRMJEE, so got an email to be present on 3rd May 2019 for counselling purpose, their many parents came with their ward, people announcing rank-wise so children can go fill the forms regarding 1st-year fee and admission. In this process, I get to choose the stream I wanted (Computer Science Engineering specialisation in Software Engineering). After one month on 21st June, I had to be there for hostel and enrollment purpose. And my classes started on the 1st of July. College is somehow good, you will get a nice environment for self-study, a library which is open till 2 am in the night you can study and do projects theirs with campus wifi. KTR campus is the largest of all SRM campuses in India, hygienic and eco-friendly environment, there are a large playground and a 400m running track for fitness indoor tennis court. Hostel-cleanliness is good. If you have SRM in mind go ahead, you will have a good learning experience....Read More
