Tkm College of Engineering-My Experience

Sometimes work pressure is high and curriculum is hard

As i am a merit student the fees are government alloted only. Opportunities for scholarships is good as this is a government college. Hostel fees is a bit high though. But the total cost of education will be around 3 lakhs i think. Name of scholarship I applied is egrantz.

I gained a seat due to merit. I was given a fee reduction due to my being an Other Backward Christian member

Course Curriculum Overview:

Teachers here were qualified, but there was no much communication between teachers and students because their native language is Bengal. Their teaching quality is below average. The course curriculum is outdated, and it is not relevant to today's industry demands. There were no club activities and high tech equipment to explore in the electronics field.
