Course Curriculum Overview

4

Well the curriculum in the first year was just the basics for the course. These will be very useful in the future. As for the exams they are pretty easy completely based on what they teach. You get one and a half hour for the mid exams and two hours for the sem exams.

Internships Opportunities

3.5

You can get an internship as soon as in 2nd year and you have to complete the course then do some projects given by the internship company. Which if you do good they'll start paying you for the internship.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee structure is pretty high to be honest with 2,39,000 being the fees in the first year and it keeps increasing by some value every year for the next 3 years. As for scholarships you get a chance when you write the admission exam. With the condition being that you have to get under a specific rank to get a scholarship.

Campus Life

4

They are many festivals and activities held in the college but the main one is the GITAM Shore fest the biggest fest in any GITAM which is held in the main branch of the college which is in Vizag. It's held every year with multiple activities being promoted and supported including esports which is very rare.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

As for living the college hostel is pretty good but costly as well at 1,50,000 rupees per year. It has pretty good facilities which proves it's worth. The food also being pretty good and overall the maintenance is very neat. Also they are pgs right in front of the college which offer rooms for way less price but at the cost of lack of facilities.

Admission

We have to write an admission exam called as GAT Gitam Admission Test. Which you have to get qualified inorder to get admission in the college. You can find the application form in the gitam website and you have to pay a small fee of 3000 rupees for the application. The applications usually start from March every year.

Faculty

3.5

The faculty is pretty qualified although some of them feel a bit less qualified only in terms of their speaking skills except that the teaching is pretty good. The interaction between the students and teachers is also pretty easy thanks to the whatsapp groups.

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.

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
