Academic Excellence:- Rigorous curriculum, expert faculty and very good opportunities for research
Campus life and social interactions :- vibrant extra curricular activities, Asia’s largest cultural and technical festival and also social fest like Mood Indigo , Abhuday and many tech teams
Placement:- Very high placement rate, strong industry connections and good alumni network

Dislikes

Academic: Sometimes you will feel you are having a lot of work load
Hostels - Old hostels are not good you will feel like it’s very dumb area
Faculty- they are not much interactive many of them are very strict

Course Curriculum Overview

Courses are very good , in first year you will get a lot of projects that will help to enhance your thinking ability but I feel from 2nd year onwards courses becoming more tough and tough . And you don't have to worry about curriculum in every 2-3 years they are making a good curriculum which is directly inclined toward industries

Class Size: 150Course Fees: INR 300000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Yes you will get a lot of internship opportunities like our placement team is working all the time for placements and internships and also we have a club which is called entrepreneurship club as E-cell from there you will also get a lot of opportunities and and also from the social club of iit Bombay

Placement Experience

In the end of 7th sem you will have to sit for placements and on that you will be eligible, the placement date is fixed it starts from 1st December and percentage of student placed is around 90% every year And highest package of last year was 4 crores around and the average package was 16lpa

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes they are giving a lot of scholarships and financial assistance , there is a alumni association for the financial assistance for poor peoples and scholarships also available on the basis of CPI for general students also

Campus Life

Mood Indigo- Cultural Fest happens in end of December Techfest - Technical fest also happens in the end of December and the gap between both the cultural and technical fest is around 7-10 days every year There is lot of social groups , tech teams and also you will get a lot opportunities in sports also

Hostel Facilities

4.5

In the first year you will get new hostel and in 2nd and 3rd year you will get old hostels which is not good as compared to new hostels and the you will have to live as 2 person in 1 room and in last year you will get a single occupancy room

Hostel Fee: INR 20000 per year

Admission

You must have 75% in 12 board exam You have to first give jee mains and after that if you qualify then you have to give jee advance and jee mains will be much easier than jee advance , you will get 2 attempts in one year for jee mains , cutoff for general students in jee mains is around 90%ile And in advance the cutoff will be around 90-100 marks out of 360

Faculty

Faculty's are very good in knowledge but they are not that much co-operative and but their teaching styles are very good they'll give a lot of problems before exams and in many exams maximum questions will come from tutorials only

My perspective about my college!!

Likes

Such a huge campus and it is located not far from the city so bus and autos are always available.
Our canteens serves Misal Pav which is next level.
For a city like Amravati and a college like ours, having a tech fest is a dream but since 2022, we have been hosting a tech event called Techlons.

Dislikes

Crowd is not that amazing as most students are non-serious over here.

Placement Experience:

TCS trains us in the third year and L&T Infotech and TCS are the ones who hired students. Almost half the students were taken by these two companies with an annual salary of 6 lakhs or so. For a freshers to work in such companies is a privilege and I am glad, we get this opportunity at our college.

A Brief Theory Round Of Aissms College Of Engineering

Likes

The campus is quite big and there are proper laboratories for every subject , also the faculty is quite helpful and helps student to settle up and get along so that the teaching and doubt interaction is built up from the starting
We have metro station right outside the gate of college so the travelling is quite simple
It's also good to have a college stationary right inside the campus and with discount too!

Dislikes

The benches are small which kind off makes the students uncomfortable to sit for more than 2 hours in that space
Canteen hygiene is not maintained at all
There's no underground parking for students and lack of space for parking of two wheelers

Placement Experience:

Placements are quite good in Aissms College Of Engineering in comparison to the other one institute of Information technology. I personally have even saw seniors getting placements when they were in placement round room. And looking at all the boards the college has put up and I can definitely says that the college does get placements and companies do come

Living and Learning at IIT Bombay: My Review

Likes

Faculty and teaching assistants are so friendly and are with great experience and wisdom.
Other than education many other activities take place like NCC, NSS, sports competitions, inter IIT competitions, etc.,
Ragging, student and gender abuse are strictly banned

Dislikes

sometimes we have to work till midnight for any tech teams, any assignments, etc., if the submission is not done in proper time. But faculty don't keep any pressure or stress on students to do certain tasks

Placement Experience:

Job placements starts from 3rd year 2 nd semester or 4th year 1st semester. Many Multi National Companies, like Amazon, Google, Sony, etc.,, come to hire students. Almost 70 % of the students get jobs. Atfer completing graduation, few people begin their startups and other businesses with the knowledge gained in the university.

Some departments here were really great like ETC and Mechanical with a unique culture going on
AIML and AIDS being new branches here are still doing their job very well for the students

Dislikes

The Students section not really tends to help ,as i saw many financially weak students facing the problem of 1 time payment fees and their request for part payments option is always rejected
Infrastructure is decent but in summer season the water coolers are just useless there ,no cooler will give you cold water

Course Curriculum Overview:

Some courses were to the point like IOT was well designed and DSA too with java programming side by side ,still as i said AIML is new branch and needs much enhancements ,the areas where they can improve was always practicals and labs those were always taken casual as i remember
