CMR Institute of Technology, Bangalore
HELLO ZEESHAN ALI
1. Faculty - There has been a massive revamp in faculty ever since YOU graduated. There are some really good teachers and there are some really bad ones. This is pretty common across colleges. The percentage of good teachers will be anywhere between 20 to 30%. The “OK” ones will be anywhere between 40 to 50% and the remaining are below average.
2. Placements - During 2017–18 period, the largest recruiter in the college was none other than the great TCS :) They recruited just 64 people compared to 110 the previous year. A lot of people were struggling for jobs. Most of the best opportunities went to the CSE and ISE guys. Nobody wanted the other branches. TCS was the only mass recruiter during my time. I have heard that the placements were really good after that and have been consistent since then. Lot of good companies visit these days - Amazon, Nokia, Commonfloor, etc. Lot of pool campus events and off campus events also help in getting students placed. These days they more or less place around 80 to 90% people by the time they graduate. Most of the people from my batch found jobs within 3 to 6 months after graduation.
3. Peer group - The peer group is actually very good. Most of the students here are pretty good, knowledgeable, ambitious and hard working. There are lots of guys who get university ranks every year.
4. Infrastructure - Decent but not too great. They have a good international canteen now and a huge basketball court now. The ground is also pretty good and they have a great auditorium. The hostel is OK
5. Location - It is very close to ITPL. In fact, it is situated in one of the best places in Bangalore. The locality is amazing. There are lots of restaurants and hangout spots all around the college. There is a movie theatre close by as well :)
6. Alumni - I felt that the alumni are more or less disconnected from the juniors. This is a big issue. In great colleges, the alumni are the ones who drive placements, tech talks, etc. This is one area where my college is lacking big time. I think the college needs to do a bit here to bring the alumni back and organize events for juniors. Networking and learning from alumni can do a lot for the students who are trying to get their foot into the industry.
7. Extra curriculars - The focus on this is not particularly large but there is fair amount of encouragement. There are a lot of clubs these days - for the students, of the students and by the students. There are some faculty members who encourage students to take up projects. The Dean is one such person.. The Physics department too has a professor who is obsessed with helping students succeed and take up research :)
So, overall, I wouldn’t say it is amazingly good. It is definitely a good place to be and a good place to learn. You won’t be disappointed for sure.
HOPE IT HELPS
ALL THE BEST
Hello Bharateesh Ananth,
The placement scenerio was pretty good for CS/IT branches at CMRIT
Approximately 25–30 super dream companies visited this year (till Sept). Obviously, this count will increase and we have 5–6 more super dream companies lined up for October. Also, many companies will visit the campus next semester.
Microsoft and Cisco were two super dream companies that hired in double digits (12–16, I guess). Apart from that, another 10–15 students(mostly GDC, 2 for IDC who did internship) got ppo from Microsoft.
Some 20 students will get to do internship at Cisco through their CCNA programme. They will be converted to FTEs based on their performance during the internship period.
.
Now you do the math to find out the number of hires by these two companies. :p
The highest package was offered by Amazon(27lacs -> 3 students).
Directi(26 lacs -> 1 student), Paypal(21lacs -> 7 students), De-Shaw(25 lacs -> 3 students).
Other super dream companies like Morgan Stanley, Appdynamics, ABCO, Commvault, Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, Oracle, Schlumberger, McKinsey etc hired around 4-5 each on an average. There were many other super dream companies that came to our campus. I wrote the ones that I remembered.
Coming to dream placements: Some 60–80 dream companies came till September. The number will reach 100 by the end of this semester. Notable dream companies were Amadeus, Teradata, Netscope, Sapient, Deloitte, Dell, HSBC, ZS Associates, Zoho, Wells Fargo, Blackrock etc. Approximately 400 students got placed in dream companies till September (This number includes all the branches. For CS/IT it may be around 250–300).
And, yeah! Google is coming this time. But, the profile that they are offering is Data Analyst, Trust and Safety with a package of 6 lacs.(base salary. 14 lacs if stock options are included)
I’m not talking about mass placements. Kindly refer to the other answer if you want information regarding the same.

Hello Anurag Singh,
If you consider academics and placement in consideration of computer science branch, CMRIT is far better than Acharya and it is located near ITPL in AECS Layout which can help your personality development in the four year journey whereas Acharya is located in outskirts of Bangalore. Even if you consider college rankings on the internet, CMRIT will emerge to be good one though Acharya is good for extra curricular activities like music, sports.
Hello Akash Raju,
I would say CMRIT, Bengaluru.
Check this link for info on Placements

Hello Manikanta Kaspa,
All of the above mentioned colleges are good at their own level but from my point of view if i would have been at your place then i will go for either SIT(ECE) or CMRIT(ISE). Since KLE is in Hubli which is out of Bangalore so i don’t think i’ll get that much of exposure which is i am getting in Bangalore.Since Bangalore is IT Hub of India so here you will get huge chance of visiting many companies understanding their work culture,attending various Tech. competition,attending many IT events and many more.
Now Lets see each colleges in brief:-
SIT Tumkur
SIT(Tumkur) :- SIT Tumkur is the one of the best college among above mentioned colleges . And It is also ranked under Top Ten college of Bangalore. It is 70 k.m away from Bangalore.
SIT has good infrastructure and also having good faculties who try to give their best to give butter quality of education to their students.
Another thing if you are north indian then you may don’t like the food as it is mixture of both(North+South Indian Recipe) but you’ll find south indian food very often.But No worry you have choice of staying outside of Hostel campus as there are many PGS for both Boys and Girls near by college or you can also look for Flat.
Now, Coming To Placement part which is the major concern of most of the student. Here in SIT Tumkur placement is pretty good for CSE, ISE and ECE followed by EEE and for MECH. & CIVIL by less Core companies comes for placement and also they just pick only 5–10 students from total available strength. so very very less chance of placement for Mech and Civil in core company. But ya they have chance to sit in IT companies placement process and if are good enough to clear that then they can switch their line or else they have to look for Pool Campus.
2) CMRIT Bangalore:- CMRIT is one of the emerging college in bangalore even it is 25 years old but from past few years cmrit is trying hard to make the education quality of best level.
CMRIT has infrastructure which i’ll say is just okay neither too small neither too big.
Faculty in this college are also good and well experienced except few. But also it differs according to the branch.If i talk about ISE branch as you have mentioned then ISE branch having very good and well experienced faculty and they are very friendly with the students.You can contact them at any time within college hour they will be available for you. ISE branch is improving their teaching and curriculum day by day.
CMRIT is in the main city of bangalore so you’ll have huge chance of exploring yourself by going numerous IT events and so on. Here, in this scene CMRIT has also started taking their students at different organisation like-TCS,HAL,Nuclear Power plant,IBM,etc.. to let the student understand the industrial work culture and fill the enthusiasm to learn something new.
Taking about Hostel facilities and food my view is similar to what i’ve mentioned for SIT tumkur.Refer that point.
Talking about placement,something similar to SIT. Here also placement of CSE,ISE is pretty good if u have minimum 60% of aggregate then there is a chance to get placed in some or other company by the end of 8th sem. Again ECE also has good placement number but very less chance to get placed in core company as they visit least. So students have to switch towards IT job. EEE has okay placement but Mech. and civil very very less hope.
3) KLE Tech:- I don’t have any idea about this college so i’ll prefer not to say anything for this college.
P.S :- Choose college wisely as you have to spend your precious 4 years for doing and learning something new,develop new skill, explore your passion & talent and live your adventure.
All colleges are at same level or position.Depending on ur branch , cutoff,fees,travel time,placement and teaching choose the college..
I can tell u the benefits of NMIT
1.Autonomous college
2.happy to say “Good R&D projects” going on-Studsat-2(Student satellite project), Robotics,MEMS and nanomaterials, IOT and many more projects…These Centre of Excellence will benefit students.
3.. 2 months Holidays/Vacations (autonomous.. Supplementary sem)…u can utilize it for enjoying, learning or doing any projects..If u have passed all subjects
Placements and teachings are good.Everything is in your hand and depends on you at the time of placement…
Me being an alumnus of SJBIT, I can say a few things about my college.
Plus points
Good infrastructure.
Excellent placement especially CS and IS.
The college is becoming autonomous.
Good teaching staff.
Minus points
Strict teaching.
Accessibility is problem as the college is located in the outskirts.
The college has a things for fines. They collect fines for even the smallest of mistakes.
Not many extra curricular activities take place.
No good interbranch relations.
From the research that I did before joining this college, BNMIT & NMIT were the better options.
Hello shaik Babu,
If you specifically ask about CMR University, then I regret to inform you in capital letters, that it SUCKS, big time!
I left Mumbai to pursue triple majors there which was well advertised by their admissions counsellor and placement officer (psychology, literature and what Bombay was not offering in BA - Journalism)… within a week I was informed that Journalism was not a major, just a side subject! Leaving Mumbai, all for nothing...
The whole college has a lazy vibe to it, the teachers are present in the college but will never and I mean never come to teach.. instead they’ll ask you to write essays on amateur topics for attendance!!!
I’ll share a funny incident, we had our exams and our Journalism professor didn’t give us any notes (she never came to teach lmao) and the day before she tells us, “what are you’ll so worried about, it’s just a damn 20 marks test” and promises to send the notes by 3 in the afternoon (yes, the day before the exam)! But surprise, surprise she has a family wedding to attend and so doesn’t send the notes at all (delaying all the while, “I’ll send by 5pm, I’ll send by 9pm, I’ll send by 11pm”, and then nothing.. and because she didn’t send the notes everyone in our class got 19 on 20...
That is how great CMR university is! I was lucky enough to leave it in 6 months because as soon as I came to know that they keep your original documents for the next 3 years and don’t return until you pay the fees for the 3 years, I decided to leave immediately while I still had my documents!!!
I’ll tell you one thing, Mumbai University may not be that great but at least you pay 3k for the whole year and don’t learn a lot, instead of paying 90k (excluding the exam fees) and not learning anything at all...
Ps- The library has no books at all, nothing, nada. There are no extra curricular activities, fests or anything held in the college. Each one of my friend is still crying, they got stuck up because of the certificates...
Hello dhanush I
Hands down SVIT.
I am doing my undergrad in CSE from SVIT currently. I have participated in some national/regional level hackathons. Won in some, learnt in all. (Hence, I qualify to answer your question)
SVIT has one of best teaching faculty when it come to computer science headed by MR. Padma Reddy. (You will get used to his name in sometime regardless of the college you join)
I remember, a friend of mine told me that their was one topic in PCD(1 or 2 sem) which no teacher from that college was able to explain it to the students. Mr. Padma Reddy was called to BMSIT to deliver a lecture on the same topic.
Me and a few of my peers have started a programming and design club(P&DC)recently in our college. College has permitted us to use the facilities till 8pm. (This club is a plus point if you are really into programming)
If we see the placements of CSE and ISE in SVIT and ATRIA. I would go for ATRIA. REASON: ATRIA and MVIT has the same management, so the students of ATRIA can go and attend placements in MVIT.
Placement in SVIT(CSE)on the other hand is 6 on a scale of 10. People hardly get placed for a developer’s profile. Almost all are tech-support. Again can't blame college for this, the students aren't good enough for developers post. You work on your programming skills from start and see how...

Hello Mani kanta kaspa,
Yes.
The placement of college is good. Many of the seniors got placed in companies like Amazon, IBM, etc. 85% students got placed. Companies like IBM, Amazon, Synesis, etc. 60-70% students got an internship from the college. Talking about salary, I think it was good enough with highest going till Rs 14 LPA.
Facilities like Wi-Fi, sports, medical facilities are available. The college has 3 types of grounds for football, basketball, etc. The college organizes, as well as participates in, events (technical/non-technical). The quality of labs & classrooms is good. The quality of food in the canteen in good, but not so good in the mess. The hostel rooms are average...
The faculty members are friendly. Some of them are helpful, some are not. Talking about qualifications, some are new, some are well experienced. The teaching method is normal- sometimes on projector, sometimes on board. The course curriculum is useful. Some faculty members are well-qualified and having knowledge, while some are still not so good.Facilities like Wi-Fi, sports, medical facilities are available. The college has 3 types of grounds for football, basketball, etc.
