Admission to the mechanical engineering program at Sir Padampat Singhania University requires an all-India engineering entrance exam, with higher ranks offering better counseling opportunities. Despite being attracted initially by the promise of skill enhancement, the reviewer expressed dissatisfaction, particularly with the food quality. The faculty is experienced, with many holding doctorates, and they provide motivational teaching, living on campus for accessibility and ensuring a non-ragging environment. However, opinions on teaching standards are mixed, sometimes described as average.
The college enforces strict rules against ragging and charges over one lakh per semester, covering hostel, mess, internet, and medical facilities. Scholarships are awarded based on 12th-grade marks, offering a 75% scholarship for scores above 95% and 50% for scores above 90%, applicable annually. The university boasts diverse placement opportunities, with companies like Hitachi, JK Cement, and Amazon visiting, achieving an 85-90% placement rate annually. The average package is 4-5 lakh INR per annum, with the highest reaching 13 lakh INR.
Internships are offered, though some lack knowledge enhancement, but international opportunities and stipends in IT are available. Mandatory projects help students enhance technical and presentation skills. Additional scholarships are based on JEE Mains and SPSAT scores, with provisions for farmers' children. Annual fees are approximately 2 lakhs, with a semester fee over 1.5 lakhs excluding hostel fees, but a combined fee of 80,000 rupees per semester is offered including hostel and semester fees.
With scholarships, fees may reduce to around 45,000 rupees per semester. The university also provides financial assistance for projects and internships with stipends for pre-final year students.
