Course Curriculum Overview

5

I always had a interest in computer software as I've been tinkering with them ever since I was a kid. C programming (which is the most relevant to my course), is well structured with normal whiteboard teaching and hands-on approach on computers being done. I think I will be fairly industry ready till the placement season. In my opinion, some of the redundant part can be removed and different types of programs should be taught. The exams are frequent but I think that's just due to the rush of 1st semester. The exams themselves are not very hard and as mentioned previously, can be easily passed with flying colors.

Internships Opportunities

4

As far as I know, internship is provided by the college but as I'm only in 1st semester, I have no idea about it. Though companies like Vipro, TCS and Infosys give interships with stipends to a lot of students every year.

Placement Experience

3

Students are eligible for on-campus placements from the 6th semester. Companies such as TCS, infosys have come for placements. Almost every eligible student are placed every year. The highest package is around 32L. My plan is to get a placement after degree.

Fees and Financial Aid

I will be paying 137360 per year. The yearly fees for OBC students is 79534, for SC/ST candidates - 4360, for SBC/DT/VJ/NT students - 21708, TFWS fees is 21708 and for J&K students the yearly fees is 29360. MAH-DBT is a available for non-general students.

Campus Life

5

Alegria, which is the largest college fest in all of Navi Mumbai, is held in february of every year. Many celebrities such as Yo Yo Honey Singh, Badsah, Samay Raina, Mika Singh and Arjit Singh have performed. It lasts over a course of 3 days excluding the competitions taking place 2 weeks before. Wide variety of books and journal covering almost every topic are present in the library. The issuing is a very simple process and is done swiftly with the help of the library staff. A lot of sports events are held and the college even has its own teams in various sports which have competed even at the national level. A lot of student-run clubs are present.

Admission

I applied of SIES, Nerul and AP Shah, Thane but ultimately chose this college as it was near my home and pretty much at their level. I can easily upskill at this college because I don't have a lot of travel time to and fro college. Joint Entrance Exam (JEE) and Maharasahtra State Common Entrance Test (MHT-CET) is accepted in this college. Most students in the college have taken admission on the basis of MHT-CET.

Faculty

5

The faculties are always open to discussion with the student. They surely love the subject they are teaching. The teaching is done is a interactive manner so as to make sure the students are actually understanding what is being taught. Prof. Sheikh Shahid (Mech faculty for 1st sem) and Prof. Ravindra Nikam (Physics faculty for 1st sem) are probably the best faculty in all of 1st sem. 3 exams are held throughout the semester. Two internal assessements whose average marks go towards the CGPA and a end sem exam like any other college. The exams are not much difficult, coming from a perspective of a regular student who was attended almost every lecture and studies only upto 10 hours a week. Anyone can pass with flying colors even if they just paid attention in lectures as faculties are excellent.

Night Life

2

a lot of cafeterias and restaurants are present near the campus. As Panvel is just a town, there is not much to do past midnight. As the Railway Station is near the campus, it makes other cities more accesible for hangout.

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

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.
