A Practical and Honest Experience at SN Patel Institute

The course curriculum of my B.Tech program is aligned with GTU standards and covers all the important subjects needed for core engineering. Most subjects are relevant to industry requirements and help in clearing concepts. Lab work and practical subjects are useful for real applications. Exams happen twice a semester and the difficulty is moderate if you study regularly. Some subjects could include more practical exposure and updated tools, but overall the curriculum is balanced and good for learning.

Students become eligible for campus placements from the 7th semester. Every year companies like TCS, Atul Ltd, L&T, Alembic, Royal Technocast and some local industries visit the campus.
