Entrance Preview

UPCEEE, this college was 75 years old and is very good. This is one of the best college in UP and also very reputed. The admission process was also good and useful.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The curriculum was exhaustive as per standards being followed. All aspects of an engineering degree were covered in 4 years of study. The computer science engineering degree had advanced theory and lab courses which were helpful in making students industry ready.

Internships Opportunities

Internship expertise was great and we were offered stipend for attending the same after 3rd year. Students were encouraged to have multiple internship as well to get them more familiariized with industry.

Placement Experience

Placement in some branches were around 300% mainly in chemical engineering. Other core branches also had good placements and around 80%. Package offer ranged from 1L to 1.5L in the year 1999.

College Events

3.5

Many events were celebrated like Odyssey, Techera. Odyssey is for cultural and Techera is technical symposium. Participation from all state colleges is there for these events

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fee structure was not so expensive then and was around 2000 INR per semester so total of RS 4000 per year. Hostel fees were also RS 1000 per year. They also had scholarship scheme where top 25% students used to get their fees waived off.

Fees and Financial Aid

Loan was not much required as such. Scholarship was provided by institute to top 25% students and all their fees were waived off.

Campus Life

3.5

Sports activity was very good and annual sports day were conducted. There were teams for all sports and they participated in local/state events and championships.

Alumni/Alumna

Some of the alumni networks are very strong and happening. However there is no formal alumni network being driven by Institue. It will be great for a regular and formal Alumini network and drive different events.

Exam Structure

Exam structure is great and were very disciplined. There were 2 mid semester exams and 1 main semester exams. Lab tests were part of these. The theory exams were conducted in continuation and gets completed in 5/6 days. The exam schedule for complete semester was also published on the very first day of opening of semester.

Faculty

Faculty were also very experienced and knowledgeable in all branches. Some of the faculties were also young so as to bring in the mix of recent happenings and dynamism of the industry.

the security is nice at my college like proper cctv and guards , apart from that labs , and my dept is too good. Ac classroom and labs
They have provided average placement like most of companies are mass hiring like tcs and accenture ..and only few companies come to offer big package
Infrastructure is good but there is need of reconstruction at some places the water is ticking in rain season continuously, and curriculum is okay okay not that much relevant to industry , they taught text books rather than the real practical cases

The examination checking - the student who is cr or having any relation with teachers got highest marks without writing the answer properly
The food canteen first of all the canteen is off from the past 1 or 2 year and now it reopen but it sells dirty food , waste foods
The college professor support , they are not that much supportive

Course Curriculum Overview:

What I See at SRM Ghaziabad

Likes

I really appreciated the college clubs and hackathons.
There are variety of events throughout the semester, something to always keep you on your feet.
Some of the faculties are really really experienced and have a unique approach that captures the attention of all the students.

Dislikes

Not many hotspots around campus to hang out after classes.
The infrastructure of the hostel can be improved a lot.
Food in mess is not great, the menu is not very diverse. Everything has aloo.

Placement Experience:

Placements are actually impressive with our college having the highest placement rate among others in the region. We usually achieve ~90% placement. We get opportunities from many large groups, such as Infosys, TCS, JPMC, BNY, Logitech, etc etc The list goes on. The highest package that I saw was of around 1Cr from a company I don't remember their name, but it was based out of SF and was a really great one. Average placement we see is around 12-20LPA packages.

My collage identity

This college is the 2nd best B.Tech college in UP after IIT and its placement is also good. One has to clear JEE for admission in HBTU in which one has to get rank in thousand for CSE .Those with lower rank can try the sports round once, in which there are more chances of losing admission in lower branch like FT OT. Since my rank was 10 lakh, my admission also happened in the sports round....Read More

All About the HBTU throught the lens of a first year student.

The other colleges which i applied to were IET Lucknow , IIIT Una , IIIT Dharwad and other lower IIITs . I choose over those since this colleges reputation and placements spoke for itself they had a very good track record regarding this course and many famous companies have been coming here repeatedly. The admission in this college is through HBTU e-counselling site which is a standalone website managed by HBTU itself . It has a registration fees of 2500 rupees is non refundable . There you fill your choice of courses . The branch is alloted according to your JEE MAINS rank and your preference list . After the seat allotment letter you have to visit college and there you will have to submit your documents then you will be given a provisional admission letter and you are given a choice to upgrade your branch to the courses you have selected in your preference list. The admission in this college for UG is given through only JEE MAINS for engineering and all other branches leaving Biotechonlogy and Biochemical where you can get admission through CUET....Read More
