Review- GOVT. COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AMRAVATI

The institute ensures that the students, when go out of the college after graduation, reach to the highest peak of success. The region of Amravati is not an industrial region like Pune or Mumbai, hence the exposure to the industry is not enough for the students.

The Course Curriculum is very good. It tries to cover all the necessary subjects for creating an understanding about the field. It helps a lot, when we actually work on field. There are 8 semesters in 4 years of graduation. Each semester has 2 Class tests (+1 Class test for 2nd, 3rd and 4th year) and an END Semester exam. The 40% passing criteria is applied. There are internal assessments as well as external assessments practical exams to test our practical knowledge.

The placements are very good. The software based companies recruit more in our institution. Companies like TCS Ninja, TCS Digital, Cognizant, Persistent, Wipro, Pratiti, NCDEX- NEML, Elastic drive, LnT, Reliance retail, etc. are the major recruiting companies. The institute focuses on the need of undergoing internships and trainings. I haven't done any internships but I have taken training in Rattan India power plant near Amravati.

A lot of extra curricular activities are conducted in the institute. The technical festival - PRAJWALAN, cultural festival - ZENITH, Alumni Meet are the events that take place every year. Besides this many events are organized by the students council and many other forums in the college.

The fee structure is quite feasible. The fees is incremental in nature. It increases every year by a few percentages. The scholarships and freeships are provided by the government to all the students belonging to the weaker section and financially weak students every year.

Being a Government College, all the scholarships and freeships provided by the Government of Maharashtra are made available for the students. Besides these scholarships, many scholarships are provided by different institutions like Lila Poonawala Foundation, Siemens Scholarship, Calsoft Foundation, ONGC scholarship, etc.

The labs are well equipped. All the necessary instruments and equipment are made available if any defective ones are to be replaced. Every year the sports meet is also held under the Gymkhana. It is known as the Kalpana Chawla trophy, where the departments participate in different games and earn points to make their department win. Besides these, the institute has a good participation and encourages the students to take part in the university matches.

I am a localite. So, I don't live in the hostel. But as I visit the hostel frequently, the facilities are good. The newspapers are provided regularly. The water supply is 24×7. The washrooms are also clean and well equipped. There are 2 hostels for girls and 2 hostels for boys. 1 hostel is under construction for boys.

Every year the Alumni meet is organized by the Alumni Association of the Institute. So, there is a good maintenance of the alumni and students relationships. They also provide scholarships to the toppers and the students in need. They Share their experiences with the students and it is very helpful.

I got admitted to the Institute by the Allotment procedure conducted by DTE. After the arrival of the results, we have to register for the admission process. Then our rank in the merit list is provided by the DTE. Later on the desired options for the college are to be filled in the preference form. Then according to our preference and our rank, the college is allotted. It is a long procedure. It lasts for at least a month.

The faculty of our department is very experienced and they help us whenever we require their help. They are very good at teaching the concepts. They emphasize on the practical knowledge a lot. Every faculty has a good knowledge of the subject that they are teaching.
