What Students Say

Likes

Academic Excellence:- Rigorous curriculum, expert faculty and very good opportunities for research
Campus life and social interactions :- vibrant extra curricular activities, Asia’s largest cultural and technical festival and also social fest like Mood Indigo , Abhuday and many tech teams
Placement:- Very high placement rate, strong industry connections and good alumni network

Dislikes

Academic: Sometimes you will feel you are having a lot of work load
Hostels - Old hostels are not good you will feel like it’s very dumb area
Faculty- they are not much interactive many of them are very strict

Course Curriculum Overview

Courses are very good , in first year you will get a lot of projects that will help to enhance your thinking ability but I feel from 2nd year onwards courses becoming more tough and tough . And you don't have to worry about curriculum in every 2-3 years they are making a good curriculum which is directly inclined toward industries

Class Size: 150Course Fees: INR 300000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Yes you will get a lot of internship opportunities like our placement team is working all the time for placements and internships and also we have a club which is called entrepreneurship club as E-cell from there you will also get a lot of opportunities and and also from the social club of iit Bombay

Placement Experience

In the end of 7th sem you will have to sit for placements and on that you will be eligible, the placement date is fixed it starts from 1st December and percentage of student placed is around 90% every year And highest package of last year was 4 crores around and the average package was 16lpa

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes they are giving a lot of scholarships and financial assistance , there is a alumni association for the financial assistance for poor peoples and scholarships also available on the basis of CPI for general students also

Campus Life

Mood Indigo- Cultural Fest happens in end of December Techfest - Technical fest also happens in the end of December and the gap between both the cultural and technical fest is around 7-10 days every year There is lot of social groups , tech teams and also you will get a lot opportunities in sports also

Hostel Facilities

4.5

In the first year you will get new hostel and in 2nd and 3rd year you will get old hostels which is not good as compared to new hostels and the you will have to live as 2 person in 1 room and in last year you will get a single occupancy room

Hostel Fee: INR 20000 per year

Admission

You must have 75% in 12 board exam You have to first give jee mains and after that if you qualify then you have to give jee advance and jee mains will be much easier than jee advance , you will get 2 attempts in one year for jee mains , cutoff for general students in jee mains is around 90%ile And in advance the cutoff will be around 90-100 marks out of 360

Faculty

Faculty's are very good in knowledge but they are not that much co-operative and but their teaching styles are very good they'll give a lot of problems before exams and in many exams maximum questions will come from tutorials only

PES College of Engineering: Overview of the college

Likes

The campus of the college is vast with a natural environment
Many facilities like library, sophisticated labs, and classrooms are provided by the college
The Teachers cover each and every point of the syllabus and guide the students.

Dislikes

The syllabus is a little bit outdated, that is some points in the syllabus may seems boring and not applicable in the real world.
The Teachers should use the right techniques for teaching which makes the students more engaging in the class.
The menu of the canteen must contain some health option in a budget friendly way.

Placement Experience:

The campus placement is decent in the college as compare to other colleges of the city . many companies visited the college every year to hire the skillful engineers from the college and offer them a good amount of package. The option of the offcampus palcement is also there for the students of the other colleges.

Journey of passion in DPCOE

Likes

I really liked the infrastructure of the college its very nice and has good environment .
DPCOE is famous for its sports , it has massive turf where kids of 4 to 5 age has their matches
Also i like my department , as i am an automobile engineering we need most practical knowledge , this college offers a big workshop just for us an also yearly event for automobile students . Also clubs are there which has reputation of national rank

Dislikes

I kind of felt that faculty can be biased sometimes also do not care what and how we want to study .
Watchman can be little rude sometimes , also informing that their are exam coming in next week are to be informed at leat 10 days before. I have a suggestion of preparing acadamic calender of year

Course Curriculum Overview:

Soo ever since kid i was interested in bikes this interest was all for me to take this course , my father is very bike enthusiast and it came down to me , i could easily take mechanical and other engineering cause these are common courses which involves automobile , but since i wanted to follow my passion , i wanted to do specialization in automobile itself and DPCOE was offering this course with great facilities and knowledge providing us a path in this lane of career in this field. According to me curriculum prepares us quite well as they conduct workshop which are relevant to outside world where we'll be working. If there were more practical workshops for us to work on would be great cause automobile engineering is all about practicals rather than theoroticals Professor should try teaching in physical part rather than taking lectures and explaining the concept by just words

College campus, it is big, not much conjusted, good nature friendly
Freedom upto some level, no uniforms, no ID compulsion unless it is an exam
Events,every now and then there are events in college, cultural club is also too good here👍

Dislikes

Faculty is not much well qualified or well trained I would say
Hectic curriculum, boring schedules and quite unlivable
Labs and classrooms are too old, infrastructure is very old

Placement Experience:

Yes there is placement cell of STES which is no different than other tier 3 engineering colleges offering a tier 3 average package depending on who is the recruiter. Students become eligible for campus from 3rd year of their degree. Highest package is something around 55 lakhs offered to a computer engineering student,and average is just like I said for a tier 3 college 5-6 lakhs(above or below). Almost everyone gets placed in the company but some might not.

Campus is huge and there is to much space for walk and greenari
Affordable price in cantin same we eat outside.
Not that much strict environment than many of the college.

Dislikes

Campus is huge but is mostly empty need of development.
Need of infrastructure and sports facility for students.
Need of contact no. Of emergency contact of the staff.

Placement Experience:

I talk with most of the senior and faculty and placement cell start of 3 rd year you will get internship opportunities and and in 4 th year you will get placement opportunity. But senior told me off campus placement preparation must be go on you will find good opportunity. Highest package is 12 lpa and average is 4 lpa is good for freshers.

I like my college building,classes,labs.
Canteen is good.it provides good quality food.
Library is best. Very nice management and staff

Dislikes

Canteen is good but they must increase their staff.
Class should be sound proof.noice from outside disturbs.
Stationary staff should be increased and price should be decreased.

Placement Experience:

From sem 7 students become eligible for campus placements. Companies like Accenture,Wipro, Microsoft, HyperVerge have visited college. In 2020 highest package was 30 lac per annum by Amazon. Last year only 40% students got the placement. I am planning for competitive exams after degree.

Some departments here were really great like ETC and Mechanical with a unique culture going on
AIML and AIDS being new branches here are still doing their job very well for the students

Dislikes

The Students section not really tends to help ,as i saw many financially weak students facing the problem of 1 time payment fees and their request for part payments option is always rejected
Infrastructure is decent but in summer season the water coolers are just useless there ,no cooler will give you cold water

Course Curriculum Overview:

Some courses were to the point like IOT was well designed and DSA too with java programming side by side ,still as i said AIML is new branch and needs much enhancements ,the areas where they can improve was always practicals and labs those were always taken casual as i remember
