Remarks

College management needs to improve in extra curricular activities and campus recruitment facilities. Hostel and food facilities needs to be improved.

Entrance Preview

I took KCET,Was interested to pursue Engineering near my by native Bidar. And PDACE was one of the oldest and top college which has phd level lectures.

Course Curriculum Overview

Course curriculum was in in two categories electronics and communication oriented subjects. We have provided the options to select two electives as per VTU rules and resulations.

Internships Opportunities

We had internal projects during 6th semester and final year project with ourselves with a team of 5 members. It was based in embedded system technology.

Placement Experience

2.5

Below were the companies came to campus during 2007-2008 TechMahindra and tcs and many placement company come in this college.

College Events

2.5

Golden Jubilee year very big celebration. College annual dayFreshers and farewell department level. And cultural and sports college level and department level competitions.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fee structure was as per VTU college development fees refundable deposit. There were library fees as well which is feasible. Fees were expensive for a management seat.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes SBI and Canara bank used to provide education loans to all students which was helpful to specially poor students who wanted to pursue Engineering with their interest.

Campus Life

3.5

We have mingled with everyone without referring to any gender,ethnicity,race,religion,sexual orientation,politics and economic status in all Hostel Parties,workshops, cultural societies.

Hostel Facilities

Hostel facilities were moderate. There were options for rooms from high price to low from single 15000 rupees, double 9500 and triple 8000 sharing as well.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Yeah we have groups in various social networking sites. We are always keeping together in touch with most of our seniors,lectures and batchmates. It feels great to be in touch after so many years out of college life.

Exam Structure

For every 5 months there will be 3 internal tests and one main External VTU exam. So indeed it was hectic. These all including the Lab exams.

Faculty

3.5

Most of the faculty were minimun M.tech level and top most were Ph.d level. Very few were BE during that time in a brief the lecturing was detail oriented and very strict in internal exams.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I have been from diploma background, after diploma I joined this course as later entry (direct admission to 2nd year). In diploma also, I have studied the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) course. As I know the basic concepts about this course, it is easy for me now to understand the concepts.

Likes

Yes the first thing I liked is the campus and the environment there is no harrasment and strict action will be taken.
And second thing is faculty members are so helpful and they always help to students and different festival
And also the campus provide all facilities and make helps to sports and ration is almost equal of boys and girls

Dislikes

Yes some things are there which I disliked first is the campus is very strict and no function are organised yearly ones or twice is very sad thing as compared to other campus
Second thing is food students facing some problem with the food which hear prepared so outsiders facing lot of problems
Third is about hostel facility is good but very strict only once a week the students should go out side and write leave letter to go there native places.

Placement Experience:

Students got opportunity to eligible after 3rd year mainly in 7th semester students get opportunity for campus interview. In my college the company which came to hire is congizent and microsoft and amezon and dell nearly 80 to 90 company are came. The company offers is highest is 40 lack per annum which google provide and minimum is 4lack . Mainly 80 percent of the students are placed every year but due to war happened in the global impact in placement I want to do masters in abroad and then go to the company

The great review

Likes

very first thing i like in the college is the wifi network,
the library which is very peace and silent
average places to take photos and nearby there is nandi hills to visit

Dislikes

i dislike the distance of the college, its too large, should walk soo much
the cost of stationaries in the general store
i dont think so faculy are that much expertise , only countable people worth it

Course Curriculum Overview:

see i have choosed this course because it is very relatable to CSE, coz my ranking was not sufficient to get this course. the course which i took "Information Science and Engineering" is really a good course. they make us real world engineers. the area they shld actually improve is, hiring worthable faculty.

Likes

Canteen is fine has nice and tasty food and quite a lot of options
Library is also good has every book related to my course and few others as well
Lab facilities are also very nice and the college has a nice crowd

Dislikes

It's nothing like I expected, they don't let students use the ground or turfs. Facilities are pretty bad.
They charge money for everything and has zero facilities for college students. Everything is for there school students.
College is very small and the faculties are rude to students. (Mostly the case)

Placement Experience:

Student are eligible for placements from there 7th semester but I wouldn't recommend relying on college for placements. Not many companies come to this college so placements are really bad. If u have skills it would be better to apply to companies on your own. I don't have details on how many students gets placed but as much as I know it's about 30-50 % And average package is also very low. I plan of gaining skills and certification on my own and job hunting myself in 4th year through my connections and internships. Or maybe go abroad for masters As I'm a first year student I don't know much about which companies come and how much they offer.
