Course Curriculum Overview

3

My criteria for the selection of this course was just employability. Back then I thought a degree in electrical and electronics engineering would give me sufficient qualifications in order to cope with the current competitiveness in the private sector, particularly in technical domains. The faculty-student ratio was 10:1 back then. It was a Christian management college and all the teachers, professors were well qualified for their roles of teaching with a post-graduate degree or two. University exams were there once a semester. The first two semesters had combined examinations. It was not that difficult to pass

Fees and Financial Aid

The course fee was around 1.5L per semester. Unfortunately or fortunately, I couldn't avail of a scholarship back then for my college studies. In addition, I was placed in infy Chennai in the final year. Years of work have made me a self-driven techy with up-to-date knowledge in information technology and a person with a pleasing personality.

Campus Life

Yes, the college conducted yearly techfests and other days like college day, art day, engineers day and so more. The tech-fest in our college was tharang. It was usually conducted in mid-day of august every year. We have a 24*7 dedicated library with access to international, and national journals, technical books and a lot more. The college library played a major role in preparing student notes before a semester exam. The college conducted sports day and we were more competent in basketball, cricket, and football at the district and state levels. Fortunately, I was selected as a fast baller in the district team against all the self-financed engineering colleges. People in each class were fortunate enough to share their whereabouts and staff in a dedicated WhatsApp group, Our group named "Electrical thugs" was unforgettable with best buddies having a great time with classical jokes inundated with state-of-the-art rumours, metaphors and staff. Really those were the days ..

Admission

The admission process was purely based on credit. The college management prepared a list of candidates based on their marks in the entrance exam and admissions were sorted accordingly. Although the college management employed a filtration based on merit, the management had its own norms on admitting a candidate based on their overall marks in entrance and in the qualifying examination

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is the worst. Teachers rush through the portions so that they can finish at the earliest. It may be because the university has a unjustifiable timetable. There is very little practicals given. The ones that are given are just for namesake.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Course curriculum is under KTU syllubus do it's fine. There is a change in curriculum coming 2024 which i assume would make a lot of good changes. The curriculum gives you a head start For most of your work, you need to on your own but the faculty is there to help. The frequency of exams is weekly tests + monthly exams. Its not too difficult of an exam.

Placement Experience:

The students usually start appearing for campus placements in their 6th semester. The training for the campus placements is started for all the students from the 4th semester. Many companies visited for campus placements. But one main problem is that most of them were low packages. Around 4LPA. Some were between 4-6 and a very few between 6-10. Most of them got placed in our batch in some company.
