What Students Say
Likes
- There are certain professors who are really good at engaging the students. They are pretty approachable.
- The college is in the city right next next to the metro station. Plus theres also a mall next to it.
- Although not enough, the college conducts many programs and events.
Dislikes
- The classrooms are not maintained (the projectors have issues, they aren't centred properly).
- There's an attendance criteria of 75% for credit and non credit subjects.
- There is no extra curriculars at the college since 2/3s of the college campus is SIMS hospital and medical college.
Course Curriculum Overview
I had a bit of interest in AI which is why I took up the specialization. You can take CSE core and choose subjects later if you want (is cheaper too, we learnt it late). The curriculum keeps updating every 3 years but some subjects like chemistry, physics and biology were there in first year (which went way too deep). Lab hours are limited and no one takes it seriously so the college doesn't "prepare" us for the industry I'd say.
Fees and Financial Aid
The fee structure for B.Tech is around 3,15,000 rupees per year out of which 2,75,000 is the base fee plus books fee (15,000) and CDC fees (25,000) both compulsory. Scholarships are provided based on merit, although competition is so high that you need a cumulative GPA of 10 to get it.
Campus Life
There are major events like Ubertech, Technozzare etc. arranged by college clubs year-round. they also organise hackathons and competitions. There are dance/music clubs too. The library is small for sitting as there are probably 60-70 chairs (or even less) the book choices are fine. you'll see books for all topics. There's a projector in classrooms that sometimes doesn't work, or it's crooked. Sports is non existent. sports events happen sometimes at a different place or main campus.
Admission
I applied to VIT, and other private colleges since I didn't get a good JEE score. I gave the SRMJEE too and got in. at that time I joined because it was the only college I got into. I did not clear other exams (I gave the MHTCET too) The admission process was pretty straightforward, after clearing the exam we were given a login where we could see the eligible courses and branches. After that we were added to a group (after paying an admission fee of 10000)
Faculty
The faculty to student ratio is fine although in some situations where we had to choose an open elective, there was just one teacher and so many people signed up for it that few had to choose a different one. There are some good and approachable CSE faculty. Mathematics faculty is the chillest.
