What Students Say

Likes

Very good infrastructure and well maintained campus
Ground facilities for sports person is good
Faculties are very friendly and help students wherever necessary

Course Curriculum Overview

I personally had dilemma between choosing mechanical and civil atlast I opt for civil engineering. The staffs are very friendly and knowledgeable but they lack experience. Most of them are freshers or trainee.

Class Size: 50Course Fees: INR 140000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee is fixed 130000 including the mess fee,bus fee and the stationery. If you're SC candidate then you can avail SC scholarship. Bus fee and mess fee are compulsory you must pay it and also the stationery fee.There will be some discounts in fee according to your 12th score

Campus Life

Every year symposium will be conducted students can participate and showcase their knowledge in their respective subjects. There are many other clubs which you can choose according to your interests like Rotary club, singing club etc.

Admission

Some colleges have choice in choosing bus facility but they don't have it. During admission they will promise many things which will not be taken care of after admission. Mess is also compulsory here but not in some other colleges

Faculty

The faculties in this college are very good and friendly. They're well educated and capable in their respective subjects. But the issue is most of them are freshers and trainees. They'll conduct many mid term tests which will make you prepared for your semesters.

Overall Good Experience at EEC

Likes

good infrastructure, clean campus and well equipped classrooms and labs.
Faculty members are supportive and explain concepts clearly with practical examples.
Good placement opportunities, career guidance and opportunities to participate in activities.

Dislikes

The workload can be huge sometimes, especially during examinations and project submissions.
some subjects could include more practical and industry-oriented learning
More campus activities and student interactions opportunities would improve campus life.

Placement Experience:

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.

This is the best college overall

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.
