Course Curriculum Overview

3

Course curriculum needed to be more up to date. For example, they were teaching 8085 microprocessor which was an obsolete technology. Communication Engineering was bland and boring. Teaching methods could have been better. They must have encouraged us to learn and explore on our own instead of just spoon feeding. Interactive learning was missing.

Placement Experience

5

I had excellent placement cell in my college. Several good companies like Tech Mahindra, Mu Sigma etc. visited my campus. People were also sent to off campus interviews. I received the highest offer in my college which was 6 LPA in 2015. Average was around 3 LPA.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fees is 48,000 per year excluding the semester exam fees. I got two scholarships i.e., one from Ministry of Defense for Wards of Ex-Service Men and one from Tamilnadu government for being a first graduate. So, my tutition fees was nill.

Campus Life

2

There were no clubs. Though there were no restrictions on boys and girls talking, the environment was quite conservative. We had very good badminton courts in our campus. Library was also decent. Student led cultural activities were not at all permitted.

Admission

I applied to S.R.M University, Vellore Institute of Technology and SASTRA University. But, these universities were costlier and far from home. So, I didn't join. My college admission took place through Anna University counselling based on my 12th Standard marks.

Faculty

3

Many faculties are quite knowledgeable. Especially Tapas Bapu Sir, Nagaraju Sir, Menaka ma'am, Valli ma'am were all excellent teachers. I particularly didn't like a faculty member called Gurram Susheela because she was so arrogant and had zero knowledge. Faculties are generally accessible. Exams are held weekly and monthly. They were of medium level of difficulty.

Night Life

1

Absolutely pathetic night life. Just go home or be in hostel. No public areas or libraries were open in nights. Even laptop was not allowed in hostel. Gym in campus was pathetic. There are no famous hangout places near the college

Placement Experience:

Students are open to campus placements from 2nd year onwards. There are many companies who visit such as Delloite, Accenture, Cognizant, TCS, Amazon, NatWest, Nokia, etc. Highest package offered is 42 lpa and lowest is maybe 2-4lpa. Around 90% of students get placed here. My plans is to get a job through campus recruitment. Currently I got an internship through campus recruitment in Cognizant so the recruitment is quite nice here.

Placement Experience:

One thing I really need to appreciate at CIT is its placement training program. The placement team conducts regular sessions on 1. aptitude 2. coding 3. communication skills 4. group discussions and 5. interview preparation which helped me feel more confident during placements. The trainers were friendly and always encouraged us to improve our skills step by step. They provide continuous guidance and feedback throughout the training process. Mock interviews and one to one assessments helped me to understand my strength and weak areas and I work on improvements . These sessions not only improved my technical and communication skills but also boosted my confidence . The placement training team played an important role in preparing me for career opportunities and industry expectation
