- College focuses more on technical aspects rather than bookish knowledge. Conducts workshops and courses to help students discover new skills and develop their interests.
- Teachers are friendly, supportive and encouraging students. They help us complete certification courses and develop our skillset.
- Provide internships right from first year.Tho not paying but it develops a strong cv and help us get ready for future.
Dislikes
- The college has almost no campus. With only a building in vicinity and ground seperately, it makes college fest events congested.
- The canteen has nice appearance but food is not so great. Tho college is taking efforts to improve the food quality.
- They charge you for everything. Events have registration fees, some events which need white shirt needs seperate fees. It does get costly.
Course Curriculum Overview
I love coding right from 8th. This is what made me choose computer engineering. At SAKEC they not only teach you the subjects but also conduct workshops, hackathons and courses to encourage students to adapt to real world applications. Currently we are taught C and dsa in C. The exam for same is moderate to easy, considering how well you practised. In 2 hours we are given 4 questions to solve.The questions being already discussed in class.
Internships Opportunities
The companies which offer internship are Cisco networking ITER PEER Conexions etc. We recieve internship right from first year. hence we get alot of time to adjust to working environment. As first year intern we were asked to understand basics of troubleshooting and network problems. we were also taught about cybersecurity.
Placement Experience
Placements start right from 3rd year, ie sem 5 or sem 6. Top companies visiting are Capegemini TCS Vector Solutions etc. in academic year 2024-25 there were roughly 250 offers made to students. Highest ctc is 10lakh pa and average ctc being 4.5 LPA. General profiles offered include software engineering, data analysis, AI/ML engineer etc. Roughly around 60 percent students get placement and 35 percent student opt for further studies.Even i plan to complete my further studies.
Fees and Financial Aid
For first year the fee is 160429, which includes tution fees development fees and all other amenity fees. This fee structure is constant for all four years of btech degree. Therefore the course completion fee is 641716. The college fee drops as low as 28,000 for other category students (SC, ST etc). As for scholorships, there are many scholorships and the staff guides you through the process. All students with family income less than 10lakh pa can apply for the same.
Campus Life
The annual fest PRATISHTHA comprises of OLYMPUS(sports), AURUM(technical events) and VERVE ( cultural events). It is held every year in february or march. It comprises of many fun events and competitions with amazing prize pool. The library is well maintained and has almost all books and journals needed.

All classrooms on 6th floor have smart boards. the wifi is good. College participates in inter college sports like football athletics throwball cricket basketball kabadi volleyball etc. This games are covered in Olympus as well.
Admission
I applied to Vidyalankar Institute of Technology,Mumbai , VESIT, DJ Sanghvi, in computer engineering, IT, AIDS etc. I couldnt get through in VESIT or DJ Sanghvi, since I had only 96 percentile in cet. However I was admitted to VIT, still i chose SAKEC because it is near to my home and it has comparitively safer locality. Addmission process is same what you follow in any other college in cet. You need to score atleast 94 in mht cet to get into computer engineering in SAKEC. you can even get through jee mains. Tho cet is most preferred by studdents. The addmission process was smooth with all staff and faculty ready to help us.
Faculty
A class of 64 students is taught by single teacher. The teachers are helpful and do give their best to help students study. Almost whole maths faculty is amazing. All of them focus on strengthing the basics. Even Physics department teachers were fantastic. For plain theory topics they made students make ppt and posters to encourage research and make chapter interesting which would have otherwise been boring. Unfortunately the chemistry department is not that upto the mark. The teacher has accent which makes it difficult to understand the topics she says. as for exam for each sem we have 1 mid sem exam which has only 2 module, and an end sem exam which has 2 new module and 2 module of mid sems in portion in ratio 70:30. The mid sem is of 20 marks and end sem is of 100 scaled down to 60. other than written exam there is surprise test on each module in class which is evaluated in final marks. Even practicals assignments have marks. Marking system is comparatively easy. You can easily score 10 pointer if you understood the marking scheme and are consistent in studying.
Night Life
Gym is well equiped with all necessary accessories. cafeteria is nice tho it could improve the food quality. library is well maintained. college starts at 8:00 in morning and is open till 7 in evening. There are little to no hangout places around SAKEC. You could go to Cubic mall Diamond garden which is roughly 10 min by auto, or Kurla Phoenix which is 30 min by train and share auto.
