What Students Say

Likes

Labs are quite good. Overall infrastructure is good.
Pillai's crowd is very decent. All are well behaved and college's rules are good.
I got my valuable friends there. I love them.

Dislikes

There Placements are very bad. Average package is of just 4 LPA.

Course Curriculum Overview

It has mixed curriculum, like half of the syllabus from mumbai university and half from there curriculum. Beacuse it recently turned into Autonomous. You will not get the hands on study material you have to make notes on your own and study. They should provide printed notes of complete syllabus in there curriculum. And afterall this, they will give questions for univeristy's paper.

Class Size: 71Course Fees: INR 130000 per year

Placement Experience

1.5

There placement ratio is so bad. Like so so bad. They brough less tech companies, which offer only 3 to 4 LPA only. At my time, not even TCS , jio, accenture visited our campus, no mass hiring, Nothing. And they blame it on Recession (they thought other college not having recession just our college have it) Most of the students placed or got the jobs on their own.

Fees and Financial Aid

Year wise fees are 1,20,000 I didn't have any quita so I paid complete fee for obc - 81000 approx. for sc - 15000 something other fee strcuture I don't know Then there is a scholarship called DBT, You should have family income below 8 lakhs to avail it.

Campus Life

Their events are top Notch. That's the best thing in PIllai. The world famous ALEGRIA fest. The Best time in entire year. But they don't give inhouse quota for passes, You have to pay same amount just like others visiting the fest.

Admission

I got 92% in diploma, but I was from corona batch. So I got this college. I don't know about eligibilty. Usually there cut off close at 85 something. Rest process is deafult thorugh DTE. If you have income below 8 lakhs, you will get scholarship benefits.

Faculty

The teaching and non- teaching staff both are so good. Well Behaved with students. I will rate the teaching as 60%. They teach well but if you're from tech background or a stream where you need more practical knowledge, you will not get that here. They focused in tehir method and more therotical knowledge and not industry related things.

Placement Experience:

After 4th year students are eligible for campus placement. Capgemini, wipro, accenture are the top companies visited here and the highest package offered was 30lpa. As of now the placement percentage is 80% and rest go for off campus. And even I'll try to go for Off campus

My perspective about my college!!

Likes

Such a huge campus and it is located not far from the city so bus and autos are always available.
Our canteens serves Misal Pav which is next level.
For a city like Amravati and a college like ours, having a tech fest is a dream but since 2022, we have been hosting a tech event called Techlons.

Dislikes

Crowd is not that amazing as most students are non-serious over here.

Placement Experience:

TCS trains us in the third year and L&T Infotech and TCS are the ones who hired students. Almost half the students were taken by these two companies with an annual salary of 6 lakhs or so. For a freshers to work in such companies is a privilege and I am glad, we get this opportunity at our college.

A Brief Theory Round Of Aissms College Of Engineering

Likes

The campus is quite big and there are proper laboratories for every subject , also the faculty is quite helpful and helps student to settle up and get along so that the teaching and doubt interaction is built up from the starting
We have metro station right outside the gate of college so the travelling is quite simple
It's also good to have a college stationary right inside the campus and with discount too!

Dislikes

The benches are small which kind off makes the students uncomfortable to sit for more than 2 hours in that space
Canteen hygiene is not maintained at all
There's no underground parking for students and lack of space for parking of two wheelers

Placement Experience:

Placements are quite good in Aissms College Of Engineering in comparison to the other one institute of Information technology. I personally have even saw seniors getting placements when they were in placement round room. And looking at all the boards the college has put up and I can definitely says that the college does get placements and companies do come

Living and Learning at IIT Bombay: My Review

Likes

Faculty and teaching assistants are so friendly and are with great experience and wisdom.
Other than education many other activities take place like NCC, NSS, sports competitions, inter IIT competitions, etc.,
Ragging, student and gender abuse are strictly banned

Dislikes

sometimes we have to work till midnight for any tech teams, any assignments, etc., if the submission is not done in proper time. But faculty don't keep any pressure or stress on students to do certain tasks

Placement Experience:

Job placements starts from 3rd year 2 nd semester or 4th year 1st semester. Many Multi National Companies, like Amazon, Google, Sony, etc.,, come to hire students. Almost 70 % of the students get jobs. Atfer completing graduation, few people begin their startups and other businesses with the knowledge gained in the university.

Likes

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
