KJSCE- Learn Engineering with hands-on experience

Overall its a thumbs up for college KJSCE. Its has best infrastructure, good facilities, well equipped laboratories and industry relevant curriculum. Placements are not 100% but college is striving hard to achieve it.

Course Curriculum is updated every year to accommodate upcoming trends. Since KJSCE has private autonomy status, it can design its own curriculum as per industry requirement. Also, the best part is feedback from all students is taken every semester and course is updated based on feedback.

College does provide internship but there are less positions available against number of students. But faculties are trying their best to get new projects. If can get internships through your personal contact, college will easily provide approval letter. I got internship with a manufacturing company in Mumbai. It was a great learning experience. Had experience on shop floor working on CNC machines and part making.

Placements are good for computers and IT branch. Mechanical branch suffers the most in placements to get placed in core branch. My year 54/135 got core job offers and rest either opted for masters or secured IT job offer.Few were unplaced. But things are improving with time.

Cultural fest Symphony- Symphony is the annual cultural festival of K.J. Somaiya College of Engineering and has grown in leaps and bounds ever since its initiation as Jamboree in 1987.

Infrastructure and facilities wise Somaiya is the best college in Mumbai. Well equipped labs, gymkhana, football, cricket grounds, lawn tennis, badminton court and many more facilities are available in college.

Alumni of Somaiya are very well connected with college. Many past students have set up their engineering firms are come to recruit or provide internships to students in college. Alumni cell is working great to connect students with alumni helping them make better career decisions.

KJSCE has private autonomy status, it can design its own exam timetable. There are two semester exams in a year and each subject exam has vivas, 2 unit tests, practical and final exam.
