A Good Learning Experience with Opportunities for Growth

Likes

Good campus infrastructure with decent classrooms and facilities.
Friendly faculty members and supportive classmates.
Good opportunities to participate in events, activities and improve technical skills.

Dislikes

Placement training and career guidance could be improved.

Placement Experience:

The college provides placement opportunities through its placement cell, with students generally preparing for recruitment during their pre-final and final years. Various companies offer opportunities in IT, software development, business and other fields. The placement support helps students improve their communication, technical and interview skills. However, more reputed companies and higher-paying opportunities could improve the placement experience. My goal after completing the degree is to secure a good job, gain industry experience and continue developing my technical skills.

My College Experience

I chose this college because I am a resident of this city Salem and wanted to be a day-scholar. This college is also NAAC accredited with A+ grade and also stands as the higest graded government engineering colleges in the whole state of Tamil Nadu. The transport facility for reaching this college is also easy for me as there is availability of college bus which goes around the city to pick up the students i.e. the dayscholars all around the city. I didn't get any rejection from any other college because I got this college in my first round of counselling itself and so did not go for any other options and was not rejected by any. There is no entrance exam to get into the college. It is purely merit based and depends on the Anna University Counseling process....Read More
