Remarks

CFTRI is a College having a 70+ year long history and that was enough of a reason for me to choose it for my Master's degree. The college is affiliated with Mysore University & it is a Private institute. CFTRI is also given approval by AICTE group. Students seeking admission to the M.Sc program in this college will have to apply for the CFTRI entrance exam.

Course Curriculum Overview

The specialisation I chose for my M.Sc was Food Technology as it has built a good demand over the years. The M.Sc programme is of 2 years which has a total of 4 semesters in it. We also had practical facilities so that the content can be offered to us in the easiest & effective ways. The college also used to organise various kinds of academic competitions.

Class Size: 30Course Fees: INR 48000 per year

Internships Opportunities

No, I haven't participated in the internship round because I wasn't sure if it would really help me in the long run. However the decision may not seem good to some but I finalised after a few consultations and was ok with it.

Placement Experience

Our college is a trustworthy Private college of our state and that's the reason why companies such as ITC, Infosys and Unilever Ltd visit the college for placement offers to the deserving of. Packages are given under Food care, Operations, IT domains and a good number of students got placed. The average package for the course varies every year

Fees and Financial Aid

We had to pay two annual shifts of INR 24,000 for the M.Sc programme at CFTRI. As the total programme fee is just INR 48K thus no such pressure of fee is put on the students. For candidates who match the eligibility, Merit based scholarships are also available.

Campus Life

Our college campus has a good package of Learning as academic, Co-curricular and sports facilities are available in the college. For a good touch of practical knowledge, we were given laboratory sessions also and a variety of seminars and workshops are organised by the institute. The college also has a good Hall, library and modern tech equipment for the students.

Hostel Facilities

I lived with my Uncle-Aunt who had a flat near our college and as we had family relations so I decided to live with them. Some students lived in Hostels/PGs for their Journey with CFTRI . There is something really good about this life because it is arguably the best time one experiences in their student life.

Hostel Fee: INR 10000 per year

Admission

CFTRI College conducts a Special entrance exam for admission and students interested to opt for the M.Sc - FT course in this college must appear in this exam. Students must have completed their UG in relevant field to become eligible for the M.Sc admissions.

My Honest Experience at CMRIT -Academics, placements and campus life

Likes

Faculties are good helpful nature and teaches well.
The aspects I appreciated the most are supportive faculty, good placements, and vibrant.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course at CMRIT mainly because the curriculum is updated as per VTU guidelines and includes modern subjects like AI, Machine Learning, Data Science, IoT and Cloud Computing along with strong core fundamentals. The inclusion of labs, mini-projects, and electives influenced my decision a lot. The curriculum prepares us well for real-world applications through project-based learning, internships, hackathons, industrial visits, and certification courses. Concepts taught in class are directly applied in labs and projects, which helps during placements and higher studies. One area for improvement is adding more industry-oriented electives and reducing some outdated theory portions. More hands-on workshops and coding practice in every semester would be helpful. Exams are conducted regularly - 2 internals per semester plus one semester-end exam. The timing is well planned with enough gap for preparation. Difficulty level is moderate; if you attend classes regularly and practice previous papers, you can score well. Overall, the curriculum is relevant, comprehensive, and career-focused.

Great faculty, modern campus, and 1:1 ratio
Rigorous curriculum, top labs, and 1:1 ratio
Vibrant campus life, excellent mentorship, infrastructure and ratio

Placement Experience:

Campus placement drives begin in the 7th semester with companies offering average packages around 4-6 LPA. While company visits vary each year, our professors work hard to provide us with strong domain knowledge and practical skills . Ultimately securing a role depends on personal efforts and i planned to leverage these skills for off campus placements

Review for a Future aspirant

Likes

We have a temporary campus .which was taken as rent in goverment engeneering college raichur .and permanent campus was yet to finish by the time juniors come the permanent campus will be getting finished.just needed the proper campus no improvments
The campus life was not as expected by a student because here the cluns are not very active like in any other colleges , u can enjot a lot with your friends in your hostel.
Every branch has a faculty adviser we can meet them and discuss our problems with them .the faculry were very good they were well experienced ,they teach in general way as any teacher does on a digital board.

Dislikes

The placement cell is not that good , the students were not getting places for good amount of package as expected .
The labs were not well maintained that should be resolved that is the main problem in this college as well as library we have a very small library which is in a size of a regular class
Hostel was not within the campus which makes some difficulty to walk through the streets with roaming buses and cars and bikes , in our college boy girl ration was very less it is 1: 7 like that.

Placement Experience:

From 6th semester students are eligible for taking interships and they get placed in 7th semester and have to leave campus after 8th semester the highest would somewhere aroubd 20 lpa and avg would be 9 to 10 lpa . I plan to do Mtech in any reputed college by writing gate . The percentage of studebts getting placed are 70 %
