      Academics

      The academics are exceptional with IIT and Anna University Ph.D. professors. Their subject knowledge, placement training and research motivation are top-notch. They are an inspiration always. They were approachable.

      College Infra

      The college infrastructure is five-star, with top notch labs, a spacious campus and comfortable ladies rest area, and excellent facilities. The food can improve, but overall, its outstanding. The spacious campus is an advantage.

      Campus Life

      campus life was enriched by exceptionally supportive seniors from the second year onwards, helping with contests, presentations, and departmental activities. Staff support was also stellar, especially placements, emergency handling, final year projects. This unforgettable experience made our college life truly special.

      Placements

      The college excels in placements with major companies like TCS, CTS, and Infosys visiting regularly. TCS alone places over 600 students, prioritizing those with strong communication skills. The college stands out for its in-campus placement opportunities.

      Value For Money

      Our college offers great value money with three fee categories: merit seat, self-supporting seat, and management quota. Merit seat fees are under Rs. 40,000 per year, which is quite affordable. The hostel and mess fees are a bit higher, so a reduction for financially struggling students could be considered, but overall, it's quite reasonable.

      Great vibes, good college if you are a self learner.

      Academics

      Teachers are knowledgeable for the most part. Library is well equipped with the required academic material. The curriculum on the other hand, is a bit out of touch with current practices, and this is especially true for Computer Science.

      College Infra

      The classes and library are adequate. Labs are outdated and missing crucial systems for heavy workloads. Hostels are good depending on the block but they are well maintained for the most part. Mess food is good enough. General environment of the campus is good, filled with greenery.

      Campus Life

      Campus life was very peaceful. The college had a strict anti-ragging policy, and they enforced it really well. I had never seen a single case of ragging in my entire college life. Sports, gym, canteen facilities are readily available, and curfew times were lenient, with only a 100Rs fine for coming late.

      Placements

      My graduation year of 2024 was a period of recession in the IT industry, but even then, our Placement cell did their best to get as many placement opportunities as possible, and got most of the students placed in either internships or full-time jobs. Placement training was also given by both the teachers and students outside regular teaching hours.

      Value For Money

      As the institution is funded by Anna University, the tuition fees is very economical, especially for someone from the merit quota. Hostel fees was also acceptable, including mess, electric bill, etc. My tuition fees came up to Rs. 80,000 per year, and hostel fees was about Rs. 90,000.

Major recruiters include Microsoft, Infosys, Zoho, Accenture, and Tech Mahindra. The placement cell ensures continuous preparation through coding tests, mock interviews, and aptitude practice.
