Remarks

The college life is not very good. but for career building and financial aspect it is the best.

Entrance Preview

The entrance is via IIT JEE, U get placed directly into ISRO at the end of the course and there is no fee for the four years in the college.

Course Curriculum Overview

4

The course is same as mechanical engineering for the first three years with a few extra electives like navigation, guidance and control, etc. the fourth year introduces new subjects and electives related to space mission design, aerospace vehicle design etc.

Internships Opportunities

The internship is offered over various isro and external centres. The topics provided are wide and diverse. I did mine in robotics and image processing and it was great.

Placement Experience

0.5

The placement is directly into Indian space research organization. A new placement cell has been opened too. this allows placement in various private companies. l

College Events

3

The college has students from all over india. The strength is small as only 150 students are chosen every year. There are still many and really good events like the techfest Conscentia and the cultr fest dhanak.

Fee Structure And Facilities

There is no fee. Education, boarding, hostel, food, etc is all free. The books used in a semester are provided by the collg. on top of all this there is also a 3000 per semester book allowance for your favorite books.

Campus Life

3.5

Campus life needs significant improvement. the freedom is not all that much. students have to follow strict rules. Labs are great and well equipped. extra curricular activities are great.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

The facilities are great, all kinds of sports equipment and events are available in the college. people get to pursue sports of their interests. The mess food could use a little improvement in variety as the north indian food is not all that good.

Alumni/Alumna

Alumni network prevails on facebook and is not very mature as this is a new college. It will take time for the alumni to spread and reach a position to help the people out.

Exam Structure

The exam structure is slightly hectic aznd takes a little effort from your side to cope up with. The exams are recurring but u get ample opportunity to get through the whole thing.

Faculty

4

The faculty is great and really helpful. the faculty is basically scientists from ISRO who are still serving ISRO and are posted to the college as professors. They are current with the technologies of the indian space program.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would rate the EEE course curriculum around 8-8.5 /10 in terms of relevance.The curriculum provides strong fundamentals in core electrical engineering subjects and prepares students well for core jobs and higher studies.The course curriculum was revised in 2023, and our batch is the 1st batch under the new curriculum. however, there are still limited coding ,AI and data science subjects in EEE ,which could be improved. Exams are conducted times per semester and are generally moderately difficult.
