Surajit Saha's Review On Priyadarshini College Of Engineering - [PCE], Nagpur

The college required to be more serious about their processes as on 2013. Placement process needed to be strengthened. The university requires to be more student friendly. Currently it is too old fashioned with examination process.

The University is low scoring and exams focus on descriptive questions. There is scope of research during the final year project. Sessionals, Submissions, Semesters were somewhat hectic. But there was enough space to chill.

Placement was good til 2011. 2012-2013 had very bad campus placements. Although students got placed from off campus drives. But campussing on college behalf was very disappointing. To be precise not a single authentic company showed up.

Jigyasa - Annual Technical Fest in which all colleges were allowed to participate. This would consist of PPT competitions, quizzes, debates and more. There was a annual function as well. There would a farewell for final year students.

Fees initiated from 80k per year. This then incrrased to some extent. This detail is based on 2009 to 2013. Fees at that time was slightly higher than in other states. Hostel fees for first year was 50000 Rupees.

I am not aware of any loan facility. But no scholarship facility was there for bachelor students. For masters students, i noted some were allowed scholarships as junior teachers. Our college had many sister colleges and masters students would be appointed junior faculties in them.

Labs were moderate. There was an indoor stadium. But it was closed and broken down for some reason. The college included a ground for football and basketball. College had a swimming pool. There was a diverse group of students in our college.

Hostel was moderately ok. Each room had the capacity of three students. Our college only allowed hostel for first year students and seniors were not allowed in hostel. This was done to avoid ragging. We had 3 boys hostels and two girls hostels.

Not very helpful in professional domain. We reached our immeadiate seniors for job related help. But none of them could help. Probably because they were struggling themselves. As teachers there was mix group of seniors. During college time we used to chill out with lot of seniors as well.

I came to know about the college from a neighbour. I got brochures of the college. I had a legitimate AIEEE rank. I appeared for an interview. At that time we had to pay an admission fee of 1 lakh 10 thousand rupees.

College had mixed group of faculties. The senior faculties were mostly good and some where very good when it came to guiding researches. But there were some who were not upto the mark. My project professor was an PhD and renowned personality in the domain.
