Entrance Preview
I had to appear for GATE 2014. I scored 267 in it. As SPCE is one of the best colleges in Mumbai, it wasn't a difficult choice to make.
Course Curriculum Overview
Course curriculum was on par with the level of difficulties. Some of the subjects offered were -Construction management and organisation. Safety engineering.Project planning and scheduling.Project monitoring etc.
Internships Opportunities
Though there are various opportunities for bachelor's course, the internship offers for master's courses are in scarcity. Only one company came to offer internship this year. The company did not offer any sort of stipend. Instead, it put forth an offer to give full time job offers at the end of 1 year internship to students that were selected.
Placement Experience
Placement records are pretty strong for B.tech civil engineering and M.tech structural engineering. Compared to that, M.tech Construction management has a weaker placement records. Nonetheless, the few companies that came to hire M.tech students were AFCONS - package approx 6lakhs p.a, L&T infra - package approx 5.5 lakhs p.a, Aker solutions - package approx 5 lakhs p.a.
