Course Curriculum Overview

3

Course is very detailed and talks about all the possibilities of problems which could be solved hypothetically. The curriculum mainly focuses on theory, but the practical labs, work on code building. Teaching is done on a smart projector, but the way faculties teach is boring which encourages students to bunk classes. Efficient breaks are given in between the exams. Not difficult to score.

Admission

This college was in my same city, hence opted for this college. It is a reknowned college, with good faculties, proper workbase, nice campus. I applied for mamy colleges: VIT, SRM, BITS, NIT, and many more. I got admission in VIT and SRM, but the work environment was not proper. After my first JEE attempt, I got into KJ Somaiya College of Engineering. I applied on their online webpage and after round 1 admissions, I got an admission mail. KJ takes admission on the basis of JEE mains score or PERA Cet, in 2021. Those who apply first, get their seats first.

Faculty

2.5

Very moody faculty. A class of 60 has 3 batches, and one faculty over one batch. Faculties provide answers to solutions, but in their own way. Some bad faculties: Chirag Desai, Avani Sakhapara. Good faculties: R. Divekar, Nilkamal. These faculties are selected on personal opinion. Exams: 3 kinds: Internal Assessmen (2 exams- 20mark) In sem Exam (30mark) End sem Exam (100 mark)

Course Curriculum Overview:

As this college is under mumbai university so this college cannot modify syallbus in their own the have to strictly follow the university prescribe syallbus,academic timelines,rules and norms of the mumbai university. I have taken the admission in this college in the year 2024 from this year the NEP-2020 was adopted by the every indian universities and instituites. Since NEP-2020 was adopted also by mumbai university some new subjects are added to the syallabus that are oriented to financial literacy,Entreprenuianl,indian laws related subjects the syallubus of this subject is very good to see in the syallabus pdf. But the ground reality is different this subject is not given much importance by faculties the are treated as not much important subject as their are not related to our course as a result the students also take these subjects lightly.Also the professors appointed for this subjects are not much good they appoint the faculties who are recent graduates of their college who are working now as a professor in the same college. The college treat this subject lectures as an practice for the fresh faculties to gain experience of how to teach students. The core subject syallbus is same not changed the mumbai university has just changed the name of the subject. The college professors just teach the subject but they do not teach in that way that it makes us ready for real world problems.And also in the first year all the subjects are common for all the branches of the engineering which consist of subject like physics,chemistry,mechanics,Basic electrical Electronics,Engineering Graphics. It is my opinion why should an student who is studying an course called Computer Engineering so why should i read the subjects of the other branches like civil,mechanical,electrical and electronics in my first year instead of my domain subjects for whole two semester and the timespan of almost an year

Placement Experience:

The placements offered by my college are outstanding compared to other colleges in my area. Almost all students become eligible for campus placements in the 7th semester. Big tech companies like Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and IBM visit the campus for recruitment. Major tech companies such as TCS, Infosys, and Capgemini hire in bulk from this college. Other non-tech companies like JCB, Tata Hitachi, and railway companies also visit the campus for core branches. Approximately 90% of students get placed in this college according to their skills. My plan after completing my degree is to get a job in a top company like Google, Microsoft, IBM, or NVIDIA and settle abroad with a luxurious life permanently.
