Remarks

College have good amout of equipment in terms of vfx like high end cameras,gimble,other trypods and a green screen room also good workstations and they have a decent sets of faculty to guide.Also u can take other department classes also if necessary to your research of topic and that's very helpfull in each and every way possible. It's help you to wider your perspective as well.

Course Curriculum Overview

Course curriculum is good but the facilities are not consistent because their facilities are always switching to new job in between and that's sort of bad then you have to do things of your own on a particular subject till they find a new facility. Also in a subject like VFX where technology and techniques are evolving. Facilities knowledge will be limited you cannot go to the extinct in terms of knowledge. Most of the thing you have to learn on your own. But some of the facilities of particular subject are actually good and excellent at their work. They will help you to provide deep knowledge of a particular subjects. It's just you have force college more to teach you that Higher level knowledge. VFX, Gaming, Animation have problems of faculties constant switching to new job as mentioned above but graphics designing, photography, fashion design have good faculties consistency.

Class Size: 15Course Fees: INR 600000 per year

Internships Opportunities

I have done a internship at Technicolor Academy on 20,000 stipend.

Placement Experience

3.5

In term of VFX their placement process is good not excellent and yeah in vfx they have se alumni networking in big companies you can use but at the end of the in a big VFX company they can make a referal for you the most thing matters is your portfolio. They will contact throw placement opportunities but getting in will be you job.

College Events

Theirs will be many events in campus many industries professional bootcamps and seminars. College fest every year (Miraki). College trips out of Bangalore, industry visits,gams jams, eSports,VFX day, animation day all thing are celebrated as an event.

Campus Life

ICAT only have 4 floor building they don't have playground. They do have Indore games facilities, wii fii is there and it's good, library is good and it's easy to get books from there. They have actually invested in their lap equipments a lot so it's pretty good. They also have canteen on top floor.

Building Skills Beyond the Classroom

Likes

The coding culture is the best thing about NIAT. There are very frequent coding competitions that makes students actually learn things and improve their skills.
The faculty members are very knowledgable and supportive. They are also very friendly and helps everyone when in doubt.
The curriculum is totally updated and new. The use of latest technology and AI is very much focused on. Also provide internships from 1st year itself

Dislikes

The strict rules are a bit too much. The pressure is real and becomes difficult to deal with soetimes
There are hardly any cultural activities or programs. All focus is given on coding and tech related programs.
Its still new and no batch has graduated yet so its kind of difficult to record the placement rate

Placement Experience:

No batch has graduated yet so there's no record of placement data yet. But more than 200 students got internships. Also the unique point of NIAT is students gets internships from their 1st year itself. NIAT has connection in the industry also its unique teaching style, this allows 1st year students to get internships. Although there is no pass out batch yet, still many people got placed in good companies.

Remembering College Valuble Insights Feels so memorable being a final year student.

Likes

As i joined into marri laxman reddy institute ,The campus is in a village bakcground it feels so nice to live over their .We do have several sports commisions in our college.
Our college provides sports facility and The campus was so hugee ,The infrastructure is very useful(i am talking about digital teaching lab equipments and all)
The teachers were so friendly with the students and the college has a perfect strcture category for every department .

Dislikes

The teachers were so nice but the college and teachers doesnt support student to enhace the student personal growth.The teachers were take the class by learning the ppt without any conceptutal representing
The infrastructure is good but thier is no maintainance in the college,Campus feels huge but it degradss interms of maintainance and enhance the campus intemrs of neatness .it feels so that after we return back from the holidays
Most importantly,the canteen food is worst.My friend face an incident that he got a dead frog in the manchurian rice.And the food is most coastly maintains low quality

Course Curriculum Overview:

My college course curriculum is outdated .As im studying in computer science and engineering,i wpuld love to study about technological aspects and grow as a software engineering but in the course curriculam they teach my about mechanical workshops,There were no practical experience it jsut understanding the concept with theoritical part . i would love lo code but my college wastes entire time by helping with electricals,meachanical basics. i dont think is it really necessary for me understand in all the feilds they think that student should perform in all the fields as im in computer science and engineering student ,They should teach me more about coding and computer ,how it industries works and how these technology enhacning ,the arenot even explore about all these sectos they only teaching me about fundametals of all the subjects which is never useful for my studies . as i am in final year of btech i thought learning and deepdiving into computerscience and engineering subjects is more greater than learning all sector fundamentals,The area they need to improve is removing some of the oudated syllabus from their ciricullum and enhcing with the pratical experience not to teach only theoritical part. they have to teach all the areas with realtime examples. The timings of exams is very good .we do have 2 mid exams and one semester final exams for each sem and the subjects feels meduim level difficulty

They kept more events in 1st year we used to attend them

Dislikes

They stopped keeping events after 2nd year
Lecturers are particular to there subjects like they taught CN subject for 2nd year the same lecture is teaching other subject in next semester
Security watchmens are so strict than clg management

Our clg has better infrastructure like labs and library

Dislikes

Our college doesn’t conduct events frequently
The major one is placement opportunities should be improved
And also adminsrative process is slow sometimes

Things I liked in my college is freedom its not too strict students have the freedom to explore and learn, there is no place for partiality.
The staff in college is extraordinary crystal clear concepts will be delivered to students.
The environment of college is quite peaceful to learn and its neither too far or too near to the main city making it accesible to students.

Dislikes

The main problem I have encountered is food theres a routine schedule in mess which bores students and they end up ordering food from outside

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum of the college is extraordinary it prepares us for the real world difficulties. The hospital provides us with lot of expousre we learn to deal with them. The frequency of exams is apt for students enabling us finish and portion and learn thoroughly.

Honest review on KMIT

Likes

Sufficient time for developing skills in various fields
No financial pressure on students for examinations
Comparatively better placement rate and stats

Dislikes

Campus size, it is very small and insufficient
Infrastructure is very minimal and doesn't look like an engineering college
No hostel facility for non-locals, no bus facility for day scholars

Placement Experience:

The placements are comparatively more in this college, as there is more industry exposure. Students are eligible for placements from around 3-2 (3rd yr-II sem) to 4-2 (4th yr- II sem). Companies like Amazon, Cognizant, NCR often visit the campus. The highest package offered last year was 1.2 cr (International offer). Around 90% students who were eligible got placement. My plan is to get a decent package after the degree.

I really like the infrastructure of my college. Although it's established is 1995 the infrastructure is still pretty good with a huge campus of about 100 acres with good area dedicated to nature as well along with good classrooms and neat washrooms
I really like the faculty that teaches in my college. They are well educated and well spoken. I like their teaching methods too
I really like the course curriculum of my college. It's very flexible and simple. It makes our lives easier and makes the learning process simple as well

Dislikes

I don't like the location of the campus . It's in outskirts and very far from the main city
I don't like the concept of dress code everyday . I think out of 5 working days atleast 2 days should be allowed for civil dress
I don't like it's holiday system. It doesn't give holidays on optional ones declared by the government

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible from semester 6 to get placed I guess I'm not sure . Hp, Hul, Deloitte etc are the companies that come in. Highest package is around 58 lakhs after doing mba and the average package is around 10.5 to 11 lakhs. 95% of the students get placed. My plan after getting the degree is work for a couple of years maybe.

Nice college but lot of improvements are required

Likes

The faculties are highly knowledgeable, understandable and are helpful in studies and they even mentor us in some important aspects.
Course curriculum is perfectly designed to prepare for any competitive exams that a student may be appearing.
There is not much academic pressure on students. They have ample of time to prepare for any competitive exams.

Dislikes

Management by the college and the faculties are not good
There are not much companies visiting campus. Majority of them are either for non-technical roles or are mass recruiters.
Campus crowd is not good for growth for any serious student.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements after their 6th semester. The companies start visiting in 7th and 8th semesters. The companies are not much good and are mostly service based. So the placement statistics are also not much good. The highest placement last year was 10 lpa and the median placement was around 4.1 lpa. The placements were starting from 2.5 lpa. The better option for students is to apply for off-campus placements or start preparing for competitive exams
