What Students Say

Likes

Campus Life , teaching hours , , mechanical aeronautics hanger
Library , aeronautics,robotics hanger , building
Clubs , fests , ncc ,nso, foreign language

Dislikes

Food not good for health heavy oil and not higene
Teaching not good needs more skilled teacher and application oriented teaching
Crowd more 10 k students in first year heavy competition

Course Curriculum Overview

I chose mechanical engineering because I had interest in mechanics and maths , they are not focusing on applying application they can keep labs practical, teaching methods ,exams go for around 20 days and are easy

Class Size: 50Course Fees: INR 275000 per year

Internships Opportunities

There are many interesting internship provided by srm and other companies but most companies are fraud they don't even give certificate just scam you and take money and srm also asks you to make many projects

Fees and Financial Aid

College fees 275000 , registration fees 10000,if you do by management they take a round 1 lakh, semester fees around 3.5k, same fees for everyone, scholarship for those who rank under 72 in srm ktr , but we must maintain 9+ cgpa throughout college

Campus Life

Technical fest, cultural fest keep on happening everyday in srm faculties and faculties are good and friendly but not good at teaching, sports are good only for students who come via sports quota not for others

Hostel Facilities

Hostel room is small but charging around 1 lakh we can't use iron box or even any electronic gadgets and register is also very different from any other colleges outside taking hostels or ph is far better than staying in

Hostel Fee: INR 180000 per year

Admission

Good process and I applied by even vit but it's a big process as compared to srm ,i got vit Chennai bit i chose srm over it because srm ktr is the main branch and many companies come here for placement

Faculty

Theya are good with everyone, but some are not good at teaching they teach with ppt no application oriented teaching anyways they will try to pass you , but main thing is attendance maintanence above 75 percentage

Night Life

Patyela hotel there are many things to go nearby and do we can go uptil 10 pm in library But must take letter from srm hostels but at the sametime there are many ganja smoking spots nearby which can addict everyone

Overall Good Experience at EEC

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.

Placement Training and Career development at CIT

Likes

In my college , I experienced diversed equality and gained more knowledge by training staffs and assessments

Placement Experience:

One thing I really need to appreciate at CIT is its placement training program. The placement team conducts regular sessions on 1. aptitude 2. coding 3. communication skills 4. group discussions and 5. interview preparation which helped me feel more confident during placements. The trainers were friendly and always encouraged us to improve our skills step by step. They provide continuous guidance and feedback throughout the training process. Mock interviews and one to one assessments helped me to understand my strength and weak areas and I work on improvements . These sessions not only improved my technical and communication skills but also boosted my confidence . The placement training team played an important role in preparing me for career opportunities and industry expectation
