The reviewer joined DSATM after securing admission through the CET exam, initially expecting a spot in Malnad College but eventually gaining entry into the EC branch, and later the IS branch, following additional rounds. Faculty members are well-qualified, with most holding PhDs, and they are generally supportive, organizing workshops and hackathons to enhance student creativity. However, some teaching methods are criticized. The college fees range from 75,000 to 80,000 INR annually based on entrance exam performance, with hostel charges at 1,20,000 INR and a library card fee of 2,000 INR.
DSATM boasts strong placement opportunities, with over 80 companies visiting the campus annually. The college reports an impressive 90-95% job offer rate for students, with the highest salary package reaching 50 LPA and an average package between 4 to 6.5 LPA. Placement activities are centralized at DSCE, with a significant focus on internships facilitated by an active alumni network. Placement efforts begin in the 6th semester, with higher success rates for students with a GPA of 7.5 or above.
