What Students Say

Likes

The culture and experiences you gain in the campus is second to none. SRM is one of the few top tier private unis that gives students a good learning environment and ample freedom to enjoy and stay stress free.It prepares you for the real world.

Dislikes

There is not much to dislike about the campus itself but it's remote location makes it difficult for students to go to the main city.

Course Curriculum Overview

I chose this course because of the potential it has in the real world. I am not too sure about the faculty: student ration as I'm a new joinee.The faculty provides us with study material which is really useful for exams, though the level of exams are not that high they are very frequent not giving you enough time to prepare very thoroughly

Class Size: 70Course Fees: INR 500000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Intership opportunities in SRM start from the very first year which is very helpful as it helps students figure out where they are lacking and how they can make up for it. It also helps build connections and experiences at a very young age. This aspect alone gives SRM an edge over many other colleges and universities

Placement Experience

I do not have much information in this field as I'm a new joinee but from what little I've heard the placements being at the end of the 4th or 5th semester. CSE has an average package of 7lpa and almost everyone gets placed

Fees and Financial Aid

I don't have specific information about the fees structure or any recent changes in the fee incrementation at SRM University, Chennai. Fee structures and policies can vary between academic years and are subject to change based on the university's decisions.

Campus Life

4.5

There are a lot of fests held every year with Milan being the biggest and grandest spanning over an entire week. The library in SRM is in a league of it's own having all kinds of books ready for you to read.

Hostel Facilities

The Hostel facilities for the first year are quite satisfactory, even the mess is better than those of most universities. The AC rooms get booked very soon which is a bit of an issue but the non AC ones remain available for a long time

Hostel Fee: INR 187000 per year

Admission

The admission process usually follows the successful completion of entrance exams. Applicants submit their academic records, recommendation letters, and sometimes a personal statement. Admission committees carefully review these materials to make informed decisions. The competition is often fierce, with institutions selecting candidates who not only demonstrate academic excellence but also align with the values and goals of the institution.

The workload can be huge sometimes, especially during examinations and project submissions.

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.

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
