What Students Say

Likes

Labs are quite good. Overall infrastructure is good.
Pillai's crowd is very decent. All are well behaved and college's rules are good.
I got my valuable friends there. I love them.

Dislikes

There Placements are very bad. Average package is of just 4 LPA.

Course Curriculum Overview

It has mixed curriculum, like half of the syllabus from mumbai university and half from there curriculum. Beacuse it recently turned into Autonomous. You will not get the hands on study material you have to make notes on your own and study. They should provide printed notes of complete syllabus in there curriculum. And afterall this, they will give questions for univeristy's paper.

Class Size: 71Course Fees: INR 130000 per year

Placement Experience

1.5

There placement ratio is so bad. Like so so bad. They brough less tech companies, which offer only 3 to 4 LPA only. At my time, not even TCS , jio, accenture visited our campus, no mass hiring, Nothing. And they blame it on Recession (they thought other college not having recession just our college have it) Most of the students placed or got the jobs on their own.

Fees and Financial Aid

Year wise fees are 1,20,000 I didn't have any quita so I paid complete fee for obc - 81000 approx. for sc - 15000 something other fee strcuture I don't know Then there is a scholarship called DBT, You should have family income below 8 lakhs to avail it.

Campus Life

Their events are top Notch. That's the best thing in PIllai. The world famous ALEGRIA fest. The Best time in entire year. But they don't give inhouse quota for passes, You have to pay same amount just like others visiting the fest.

Admission

I got 92% in diploma, but I was from corona batch. So I got this college. I don't know about eligibilty. Usually there cut off close at 85 something. Rest process is deafult thorugh DTE. If you have income below 8 lakhs, you will get scholarship benefits.

Faculty

The teaching and non- teaching staff both are so good. Well Behaved with students. I will rate the teaching as 60%. They teach well but if you're from tech background or a stream where you need more practical knowledge, you will not get that here. They focused in tehir method and more therotical knowledge and not industry related things.

The reality check

Likes

The college professors are very particular about attendence and they will always keep there eye on your attendance and according to them attending is very important.
The college infrastructure is very good and there is vast space for students to chill and study library is also very spacious.
The teachers are always eager to solve our doubts and interact with us , the want the more and more students should approach them ask there doubts and discuss the syllabus etc.

Dislikes

I didn't like that sometimes over priority is given to the attendance I think a student can study well at his or her own sometimes only regularly attending lectures can't make you score more self study is important
The college don't have big ground earlier there used to be a big ground but it has gone for the construction work so, we only has a turf and a small ground.
The approach towards the teaching should be changed slightly and more practical based learning should be included.

Placement Experience:

The campus placement start from seventh semester and from third semester only students are enrolled in TPO Training and Placement Organisation where they train students withe various technical skills to acquire a good job. Various famous companies visit our college. Highest pakacge is of eight lakh per annum by Nice solutions. Percentage of student getting place on campus is less. After degree I will do a job.

Location of college is best near to juhu beach.
Placements of college is good also internship opportunities are there
Teacher's teaching is average but their behavior towards students are good

Dislikes

Infrastructure of college is bad, need to renew also there is so much pigeons in college
If you want to work on your professional development, college will not much help you, you have to build it by yourself.
My personal experience in this college is boring and mostly I experience difficult to make friends may be the reasons because it is only girl's college, but it depend on person to person

Placement Experience:

College provides Placement opportunites, Average placement is nearly 4.5laks. College will help you after the graduation for one year for the job opportunities if you didnt got job in final year. there are 25+ companies visits in our campus.

Staffs were quite supportive and helpful.
Good faculty. They helped throughout semester and taught well.
There were placements from beginning of 4th year. So, it was quite good for me.

Dislikes

I don't liked the college campus. It's under construction. Hope will become better some day.
No events , no tech fests. No excitement
Good companies offering higher packages not visited college.

Placement Experience:

Companies started sending their placements form to college groups from starting of the 7th semester. For particular branches, particular companies visited. Many companies send their placement forms this year. But each selected a max of 2-3 candidates only. In the strength of 76, 15 got placed on campus this year. Selection rates or placements criteria were too low.

One of the best colleges in Maharashtra

Remarks:

Focusing on student's attendence rather than focusing on students concepts. College is not focusing in development of students only paperwork is done. No conceptul teaching nor practical. By doing this stuff we can get a btech degree but not the knowledge a btech student should have.
