which college is good placement gct , kumaraguru ,ssn

saad ali 26th Jan, 2020

Hello,

Going with rankings, SSN is ranked higher compared to the other two. Placements are totally dependent on the person and differ accordingly.

SSN is quite great in terms of placements and gives a good competence to CEG and PSG college. There are a lot of product based company in the recruiters list with packages ranging from 4 LPA to 39 LPA. Few bright students even get offers from international firms with packages as high as 80 LPA.

Hope it helps!!

Which college is best CIT coimbatore or GCT coimbatore in terms of placement? Can i get scholarships for hostel fees in CIT?

ojaswiyolo Student Expert 1st Jul, 2019

Hello

For CIT Coimbatore college provides good placements, but the number of students getting placed is gradually decreasing every year. Companies that are visiting (including ELGI, Hyundai, and Bosch )the campus are offering low salary packages. However, I am pretty sure that many students succeed and pass out from the college.

Some departments even secured 77% placements including placements in core, management and IT companies. The highest package offered to one department was around 9 LPA. Graduate engineer trainee is the role offered in case of core companies, and analyst's role offered by the remaining companies.

As for the scholarships - Institute provides various government scholarships such as Adi Dravidar Welfare Scholarship, Backward class Welfare Scholarship, Chief Minister’s Scholarship, Merit- Cum- Means Scholarship . For more details click on the below link:

https://www.cit.edu.in/admission/financial-aids/

Now for GCT The placement statistics stand around 60% which is pretty good considering this as a government institution. The highest packages are often offered by IT companies such as PayPal. There is a handful of IT and core related companies visiting the campus too. Regarding placements, the students will get the opportunity but the chance of getting placed lies in the hands of the students. Good companies like ABCO, Bosch, and Zoho etc., offer a package of 12-13 LPA. Almost 95% of the students from every department get placed. And the minimum package offered by companies are 2lakhs. It has placement cell and it is useful.

Now as far as scholarships are concerned Scholarship 1

Institute offers various scholarships. For more details, please go through below mentioned URLs:-

Scholarship 3

Which college has good infrastructure, lab facility and placement -CIT or GCT

Ranveer Yadav 29th Jun, 2019

Both colleges are good and both provide the facilities that you want however there is a small suggestion of not chasing the facilities rather you should chase down the faculty because after all its the only thing which will make you successful in life.

I hope my answer have helped you and hope you do well in future.
