Amazing in terms of extra curricular allowance

No attendance compulsion!College adopting new tech and ways like using google classroom and submissions done in softcopies!......... Some exams are also taken online ! ........Amazing amazing campus and people! With a lot of exposure to other activities workshops sports etc. ......Jobs placements are okayish! ........Though the institute tries to get new and updated job and internship opportunities for the students.....

KJSCE is great college but bit expensive!!

Campus is really cool so are the placements (if your aggregate is good). Profs (ETRX, my branch) are learned and experienced while some of them are useless. Labs are totally well equipped and infra is really good. The downside is its autonomous. attendance is not the issue here. The most amazing thing of KJSCE is it always gives us new thing every time.. fab place with different people but still feels amazing to be here. the placement is almost 90% but for b.tech only in case of m.tech u dnt get much opportunity This college is mostly popular because I think the students here are given freedom to do extra-curriculur activies so much like robotics, blood donation camps, competitions, etc . Whenever you will come to the campus you will find something going on. There are n-number of events here throughout the year. If you get admission here don't have any second thoughts, just take it study, enjoy, get placed and not to forget memories with friends.

Worth the penny paid

The infrastructure of the college is very good. We have well-equipped laboratories to conduct practicals. It's just that some machines are way old and need replacement. Some practical exposure on the subject taught will be beneficial for the students as theoretical life is a bit different from practical life. The people in my college are very friendly and helpful, they are very sharp minded which makes you enjoy their company. Placement for the Mechanical branch is a bit old school. The college needs to invite more Core Companies to provide satisfactory jobs to Mechanical Engineers. The mess food in the college is very hygienic and tasty and the facilities provided are good. The professors have good knowledge about the subject, they just need to learn to deliver that knowledge to the students properly.

Semester exams are not stretched for span of 1 month like other MU universities. Faculties are not great though except mechanical branch.

Starting point

I've always wanted to do engineering as a kid. Somaiya was a starting point for me where I could learn all I needed. In the second year, i co-founded the aeromodelling team. In the third year, we won 3rd prize in IT Kanpur national level competition. I am still in touch with the college and I'm happy to see a steady growth every year.

A great launch pad for careers

Starting of with the experience this college carries in generating high quality engineers. In my year of graduation, this college completed 25 years. Spread over a vast campus in Vidyavihar area of Mumbai, this college has one of the best infrastructures in the city. Large and comfortable classrooms and importantly, several open areas for physical development as well. The college has great quality faculty and several visiting faculty to nurture its students. Along with these, the college also provides learning capabilities in terms of better libraries, approachable staff and the required machinery to it's students. This college also has several widely recognised fests and tech events held on its own campus which brings out the better from students and makes them ready for more challenges that are to come after college. The campus, the crowd, the extra-curricular all combine to boost the confidence of students, making them fierce for more strategic jobs in the future. Having done that, the college has a very efficient and prolific placement cell which ensures success for all of its students!

It is just there.

I am a very enthusiastic student who wants to learn a lot of new things and I personally believes its college's to job to provide faculty and facility to meet my learning demands. There not a single research going on in the college. But yeah if you are an average person who just wants degree this is one of the best colleges for you with above average infrastructure and facility.

Great industry exposure with fun college life

This college offers the best campus possible. the infrastructure of the building is spot on. hostel facility is also decent. the faculty is also good. the hostel facility provided is a downfall, not extremely poor but requires some scope of improvement. the industry exposure is pretty good with a lot of industrial visits taking place throughout the year. real time projects are also a big plus point of the college. the college offers decent placement package. will recommend this college to all the aspiring engineers

Funfilling experience at Somaiya

My experience at my BE was really awesome since I was in one of the best colleges.It provided the best infrastructures a student would ever want.It provided the required amenities like the projector in the class to display presentations and notes through computers,WiFi,Ethernet cables ,A library which had books as well as e-books that we could access from our home.The best part of it was that they provided all kinds of extracurricular activities like sports,tech fest,festivals etc which made our life fun filling.They provided a lot of placements.Companies like L&T, Delloite,Zycus,Accenture,Infosys etc visited our college and recruited a lot of students from the Campus .Only the thing, I personally feel the college should improvise upon is the exposure to the industry.Thers should be more industrial visits to more companies like Microsoft, Intel,Siemens etc.I received placement offers but I did not go for it because i wanted to pursue my masters.I was never a hostelite so cant say anything much about it.Each professor was exceptional.The student crowd was huge.

Its good ! Its bad ! Its Life !

College Life @KJSCE is peaceful If you don't mess with the faculty. There is an amazing campus with a lot of facilities but If you crave for chicken Somaiya is DEFINITELY not your spot. You will find half of Gujarat in here, so yeah it's more of "eat sleep the planned repeat" ! Placements are decent and you could call it an average degree life.

Kjsce - A college That lacks many things

The faculty student approach and understanding is hardly 1% teachers do their job as if students are being paid . Other activities like some council for robotics and electronics is not at the threshold level. Writing an experiment is just for the sake of submission ,no teacher tells its significance .
