Remarks

The campus is tiny. I won't recommend anyone to take admission if they desire a college life. But if you want a degree from a decent college with internal support then this is the college you will need in Ahmedabad. The student Development programs are very nice and effective.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Mechanical engineering is supposed to be the evergreen branch and the curriculum is supposed to be tough. The curriculum will be easy for those with interest but will not be for the one who is taking admission unwillingly. Exam structure is followed according to the GTU curriculum. Two mid semesters and a end semester exam. It kind of is easier than other universities. GTU is a well known and recognized university.

Placement Experience

2.5

Job opportunities according to the college are good. But its hard to believe. The college says big companies come to the campus for selection. But i have heard from seniors only 40% of the strength gets the job. Yes this college provides internship. Stipend may vary according to the companies. It also depends on the size of the company. Overall the placement facility is nice but not up to par.

College Events

This college is active in all the events possible. Take it from college days ( themed days for dressing like character day, professional day etc) to cultural fest to technical fests. The events are decent and moderate. The events celebrated are high budget and the college spends a lot. Other than that the college spends a lot on student development programs like ASME HPVC, SAE Baja etc.

Fee Structure And Facilities

It is feasible. The overall cost is 3 Lakhs keeping aside the examination fees books and all. The fee structure may differ from 70000 to 80000 per year. It can be paid in installments like 35000 a semester. If paid in total a 10% discount is also offered.

Fees and Financial Aid

The college offers scholarships to merit students. It may differ from 50% to 70% according to your merit or even more. International students are offered scholarships too. Even the ACPC offers scholarships if economically backward then the fees is just 1500/- per semester.

Campus Life

Extracurricular activities in this college are kinda good. The SAE team is a well known team in the country which has won various titles, the ASME HPVC team stood first in the continent. Comparatively the extracurricular teams in this college are better than any other colleges in this country. The win ratio for this college is ridiculously high. The college clinches at Least one trophy from each event. And all of them are prestigious events.

Hostel Facilities

1.5

No i haven't. There are no hostel facilities offered which are decent by the college. There are some hostel facilities around the college as it is located in a posh area. The infrastructures may differ place to place

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

I don't think there is a alumni network in this college. The seniors are helpful though. They will help in every possible way. Required is the proper choice of senior you ask to. The seniors help in every event you take part in. They are helpful.

Faculty

3.5

Faculty in this college can't be categorized in one section. Some are very knowledgeable and very well behaved and nice. But some are very strict and don't really care about what happens to the students. First and second years are struggling ones but the pre final and final year faculties are very knowledgeable and nice. As the well experienced faculties are kept for the important time period of engineering. Overall its a 50/50, either they are very nice or very bad and unsupportive.

The campus is really well built and has good classrooms with air conditioners in every class ensuring student comfort.in
Decent facilities for extra curricular activities like sports and metro connectivity as well.

Dislikes

Same old rigid curriculum that is still being taught in Tier 3 engineering colleges through out the country
Some of the faculty even though they may be knowledgeable themselves, fail to deliver their thoughts in an efficient way to the students
Attendance criteria is relatively strict at around 80% on paper but you can still do with 70+ percentage.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for placements from the 7th Semester and companies start visiting at that time. The no. of companies that visit are around 30+ and the highest package offered last time was around 25+ LPA. The average package is 7-8LPA. Some of the companies that visit are Accenture,TCS, Infosys, JP Morgan(students got placed from a Hackathon)

The campus view is awesome we all will see new things everytime and it feels fresh at the morning.
The personal development of particular students have been in focus of every faculty which is awesome.
The behaviour towards students of every professor is the best all are understanding and calm towards students.

Dislikes

There is a system of gate pass means whenever u need to go out of main gate with the permission we are not allowed to go.
In hostel the washrooms are not so clean for the students with common washroom hostel
The mess food are boring sometimes and the food of the food seems to be same everytime

Course Curriculum Overview:

- I have a great interest in coding and this field is based on coding so i choosed the computer field. -The curriculum of the college are based on the things which will help us in future for real world application. -The way they i based on pdf means they make a full note of a subject in pdf and explain that and which makes clear to us so I don't think they should change. -There is a enough time to study for exams it depends on us how me manage it and the difficulty level is medium it is based on what we have understood till now in studies we have studied.

The collage infrastructure is really good and vibrant, it is well developed.
Campus life is really good, there are food courts, playground, libraries avaliable.
The whole campus has wifi avaliable, they've got atm too.

Dislikes

there are quite a few restrictions like no roaming allowed after 9:30pm.
mess food is not so good, its managable but sometimes it feels miserable
for every small thing to be done, lots of paperwork is required whether you need to go outside the campus or needs a NOC

Placement Experience:

in my unversity, proper placements usually start from 7th sem, however after 4th sem, the collage provides the opputunity to go for impact traning if youve got more than 60% in your 10th, 12th and throughtout the semesters from that traning top permorning student get a chance to sit for product-based companies. as of now (jan 2026), the highest placement recorded is 60lpa at microsoft, the average is aroudn 3.5 lps to 6 lpa, most of the recruiting companies are service based such as capgemini, infosys, tcs etc. around 200-250 students gets palce after heavy filtering, i plan to go for higher studies,

The campus life is great as the atmosphere it consquires is way better than the three experiences I have had at Maharaja sayaji rao university of vadodara, Vishwakarma government Engineering college and Parul University respectively. The atmosphere
The atmosphere cultivates studying and friendly competition Between the peers,it doesn't quench that competitive Nature and rather it amplifies it, also the boy girl ratio is good.
The faculties are the best, and it's not just me all the students feel that way as some faculty are from IITS and some are very experienced and have had decades of research experience in that field.

Dislikes

I think here you focus a lot more on studies rather than extra curricular activities so I think that can be improved
There are too many lectures in a day, conpared to my friends in svit I have around 2 hours worth more of lectures
The wifi and connectivity and there being counsellors is stated but it not implemented intensively

Placement Experience:

The placement are one of the best in Gujarat for chemical engineering as the average package is on the higher side, at 6,50,000 and the highest package has reached 16,00,000. - students are eligible from the 7th semester for placement - some companies that have visited are Reliance Atul Bear L&T G.S.F.C Etc - around 70% of the batch was placed last year. - my plan is to prepare for Gate examination after/around my graduation.
