The Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) department offers a highly qualified faculty, most pursuing or holding PhDs, with Dr. Divyalakshmi praised for her teaching and supportive nature. Despite a low faculty-student ratio, faculty members are approachable and knowledgeable, although some partiality exists. The assessment includes two to three internals and a semester-end exam per semester, with a strict but fair marking system under VTU Centre Belagavi standards. Placement opportunities have been limited, with the COVID-19 pandemic impacting job availability.
Around 50% of students secured placements, with starting salaries ranging from INR 2.5 to 3.5 lakhs annually. Out of 33 students, only 4 were placed, primarily in IT companies. Internships are mostly unpaid, and students incur fees, like the six-week VLSI internship by Mavleon Solution. The college offers minimal official support for projects and internships, relying on faculty. The fee structure varies significantly: management quota students pay around 1 lakh annually, totaling 5.14 lakhs over four years; CET students pay about 25,000 per year; and general merit students pay approximately 90,000 annually with a 2,000 increase each year.
Scholarships like the SSP, providing 18,000 to 20,000 rupees annually, depend on parental occupation and caste. Total fees for four years range between 3.40 to 4 lakhs based on admission category and scholarships.
