Remarks
I got admitted to Terna Engineering College through the CAP rounds of the Maharastra technical education department after the MHT-CET exams, the admission cut off for my course was around 110/200 in CET but I got admitted because my Jee mains marks were considered during the admission. My age was 18 at the time of admission as I had no gap years in my education. The admission process was smooth but was too lengthy and dealt with a lot of documentation. There was an orientation day in the first week after joining.
Course Curriculum Overview
I choose computer engineering because I was very much interested in computer science and new technology and programming since high school, and also wanted to do engineering, so computer engineering was perfect for me. Faculty student ratio in TERNA engineering college is decent and is around 30:1, that is thirty students over one faculty member. The faculty is well qualified and the majority have completed their PhD. Teaching methods are decent, but some teachers are excellent mentors and are very open and supportive. Exams are conducted according to the Mumbai University pattern and if we study regularly it is not at all difficult to pass the semester and mid semester examinations.
Placement Experience
From semester 7, that is, from the fourth year of engineering students become eligible for college placements provided they complete other eligibility criteria like proper CGPA etc. Companies that come are mostly IT service sector companies like TCS, Capgemini, Wipro, LTI, HEXAWARE technology, to name a few. And the packages offered range from 3.5L to 12.5lakh CTC. Almost 60-70 percent of students get placed in any of the companies. My plan after getting the degree is to pursue higher education in the same field.
Fees and Financial Aid
Annual Fees for the course per annum is around 1 lakh 10 thousand rupees, in which around 84k is the tuition fee and the rest are development and college management fees. As I live near the college my expenses are less due to living with parents, but still, Nerul is not a very expensive area and hostel students can expect to need around 5 to 10 thousand per month. The scholarships are provided to students from the Maharastra government where fees get refunded to the students. There are placements in the college where mostly IT companies like TCS, LTI, Capgemini, Wipro, Microsoft, Tech Mahindra etc hire students who perform well.
Campus Life
Annual Fest and Tech fest happens in our college around August and February, Tech fest is named "Avalon", and is very good. An annual fest there are various cultural activities and DJ nights. Books of various types are available in the college library and it is a very good environment to study and complete notes. The classrooms are very big and well ventilated. There is a large turf and ground on the campus where various sports activities are conducted. There are also many clubs and groups in the college and also there is a social service unit called the 'terna NSS'
