SRM University Chennai Reviews on Infrastructure, Campus, Placement, Facilities & Faculty

The college Infrastructure is good, there are many buildings and a large campus, with lots of trees and greenery. As per my experience, the wifi works nice. The classes are good and include ACs in it. There are projectors in old and screens in new class rooms. There are grounds for tennis, basketball, ball badminton, cricket, etc. Also there are different general store shopes, food shops, some local but also have subway, dominos. But some times the campus seems to be crowded, lack of silent place. In current state, there's lots of construction in the campus. Some times it becomes difficult to find peace out of hostel, in the campus. If we are some friends and want to jam in peace so it is difficult to find such place. Lots of vehicle are rushing inside and in such times it causes traffic inside.

I am studying CSE with specialization in Software Engineering. I think that the course is good, but there are some non credit or some extra subjects that we have to study, such as Universal Human Values, Constitution of India, Professional Ethics etc. Some teachers are genuinely good but some are really terrible. The college has started the STEP program which focus on making the students job-ready, and the classes are held every week, total of 4 hours. There are many internal assignments and tests that we have to do, fulfilling the components, since there is no mid sem and all. There different tests and assignments throughout the semesters and sometimes, it may feel hectic.

Placements at SRM are mostly average. SRM brings many companies and some like Amazon, Wipro, TCS but the the package most of the students get is not so good and high packages are rare. So, the placements here don't fully satisfy expectations.

The courses in srm are not cheap and they are quite expensive, around 4.5 lakhs per annum for CSE plus hostels or other residential expenses. I think if we want the results and make the investment worth, we really have to work hard, and cannot fully rely on college placements for it.

The campus life is ok, not bad. There are many clubs not only technical, but also non-technical, such as music, dance, drama, etc., where we can get recruited. But I mostly stay in the hostel, but yes the campus life is enjoyable. Also, there is a hospital inside the campus, but it is quite expensive.

SRM has excellent infrastructure with multiple high-end equipment . All the classrooms have either smart board or projector and my campus has a large library with study space and there are also many sports teams which are highly encouraged and funded by the college . All build is the campus has fast Wifi connection.

I'm a 2nd-year computer science student currently pursuing a degree in CSC with specialisation in Software Engineering. The quality of the curriculum is up to the global standards and highly related to the job market. We undertake various career guidance sessions to understand the current job trends and needs, and work on that. The syllabus helps us become job-ready and is updated every few years

The quality of placements has been good, but due to the global recession, the placement percentage has dropped significantly compared to previous years. Around 80% of the students get placed before the 4th semester. The highest salary package as of this year is 48LPA, to my knowledge, for a CSC major. The college is very supportive of the placements, and the average salary package is between 3.5 - 5 LPA

My annual fee for my course is 4.5 lakhs. I don't feel that it is worthy, as we don't get books or anything else from the college side, even though they have amazing infrastructure

The campus life is good; there are multiple clubs, both academic and non-academic. It is a pretty safe campus located on the outskirts of Chennai. Everyone is highly encouraging and supportive and aims for better future development

Infrastructure is modern and expansive it offers well equipped labs etc you get everything what you need from mac labs to all electrical and mechanical labs, cnc machines everything is fully equipped.

Decent with good resources but overall teaching quality is just average and heavily depends on your own effort mamke sure to have a good relation with your FA as he/she's GONNA help you a lot through internship and placements.

decent placements with some high packages but outcomes largely depend on your cgpa and personal skills rather than college and projects that the companies see although somethimes selection can be based on luck must with these most of times you'll get ...

reasonable value for money as you get good infrs and moderate exposure but returs(academics,placements)vary widely on effort but srm does provides good companies but hostel fees and clg fees seems a bit on higher end

campus life can be vibrant and lively if and only if you find a good group of people though there are lots of clubs,events I'm sure anyone can find his/her type of group but due to crowd there are a lot of unnecessary and bad groups also

the infrastructure is really huge with multiple buildings, keeping the diversity of each field in the college, its got spacious places which is very relaxing as well, the labs are well equipped and classrooms are occasionally well maintained. Wifi connectivity is all across the buildings and are in good network speed.

I'm studying in my second year of university with the course in B.tech CSE w/s in IOT, the teaching is pretty good here as the respective lecturers are highly knowledged with many years of experience hence making it easier to learn the subjects

The quality is fairly good with many well based companies coming for placements, the percentage is notably high with the highest lpa coming close to 50-60lpa,average comes close to 15lpa,and the process is seemingly easy for the students aswell.

my course is 3.5lakhs per year, and so far i do feel my money is being spent well enough for the knowledge am gaining.

The campus life is the best in SRM, with a diverse community of people all across india studying here, you get to meet alot of new people.

no

My college does have all the necessary infrastructure facilities and equipment and everything is really well maintained Classrooms are nice Labs are nice and have all equipment required Sports centre is average can be better Hostels is maintained Wi-Fi and smart boards are also good Living spaces are clean till some extent food is not so hygienic

I’m studying B.Tech in Computer Science with specialisation in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning My curriculum is not so upto date according to my course right now but it does have some relations What I study makes me kind of job ready

I don’t have any idea about placements But what I’ve heard from others like my seniors quality of placements is luck dependent as well as skill dependent and that’s how it should be I think the highest package was of 1.5cr but I don’t know which course it went to

My course costed me near about 5 Lakhs per annum for two semesters I don’t feel it was worth that much amount But since my course is also future related literally I feel it’s okay and it’s kind of expected from a private institution

Campus life is amazing genuinely Had lots of fun in the past 2 years I never saw it coming Location is perfect Everything you need is a walk away or a blinkit zepto away Staff is good and friendly and responsible

NA

Considering the amount of fees they take , the infra is not up to the mark . You will get all the basic facilities all the important study related stuff all that is pretty good but if you are someone who got your admission from sports quota don't expect much in sports facilities .especially indoors and also grounds and also wifi is mid , kinda depends on your hostel or your room locations as well but that's something you can work with.

I think its better then most of the tier 3 colleges but as always not very relevant to the job you will do , for the basics it makes sense but latter also its not something that would help . Engage in college clubs for experience.

The college is overcrowded so don't get a very high expectation ,you have to work very hard for an average mediocre package and be prepared to have a fight with that banglore crowd for placements as they will just be miles ahead of you , What you might be starting in college they would have already done a=,but at the same time realistically you can grab a 50 lakh package.

Look from an ROI perspective it might be a big no but there is a good chance that you will be placed somewhere .If you are really a clown that doesn't do anything have no sense of seriousness then there are enough people to beat you.

Well there are not many places in the campus you can go , On holidays the college looks beautiful because of less crowd but ya hostel life is fun and will be a cultural shock in the start but you will adapt things and will become better in dealing with stuff.

Consider it as your last option and if you can spend 20 lakhs then this college might just be a good private pick behind VIT

The infrastructure is very nice, specially the new tech park 2.When I was in first year the university building was also very nice. Hospital inside the campus consist of every facility and the playgrounds and swimming pool is also very well maintained. College Library is one of the best i have ever seen.

i am pursuing BTech CSE w/s Software Engg. which one of the best degree in terms of placement and academics here in this college depends on your internal marks, if you maintain good marks in your internals you can easily score in your end sems according to your preparations.

I will give it as average because what i have heard from seniors its not very good or very bad. It totally depends on your skills . You have to work very hard to get placed in big companies. If you are average student placement in big companies is hard.

College consist of many scholarships according to your entrance exam marks & different criteria. Return of investment according to the fees you are paying is not that good if you do not have any good scholarship

Campus Life is very good , very good infrastructure , good hostels, every facility from food to hospitality is provided by the college inside the campus by college. In time for hostels is also decent i.e. 9PM for boys and 7PM for girls

The crowd of college is so nice , you can find students from almost every state that makes it even better

College infrastructure is really good and has nice connectivity from college to City and has lot of places nearby including from shops for everyday needs to places to hangout within campus and outside campus

Academics is very serious here you have to be very serious about attendance and cycle tests here you have to be very good here as it is easy to score good here and you have high competition around you

Depends on your hardwork entirely depends on cgpa you have to make sure you don't have any back in your resume as they filter on the basis of your cgpa and side project and your club contribution rest good

Decent

Very fun you evolve a lot

College is good

Srm Main Campus is packed with all the best infrastructure like Central library, massive classrooms and modern teaching aids for a great learning experience Every classroom has open wifi with great connectivity for academic purposes, and almost every classroom has projector with soft board for presentation purposes The buildings are not the most aesthetically pleasing but are very functional even thought some are under maintenance at times. Srm has one of Asia's biggest air conditioned Auditorium that has been used for a number of international and national conferences, events and other things.

As a B.com Corporate Secretaryship student at SRM, the staff are as encouraging as any other deemed to be universities and our class average mark ranges around 60~70%. The departments are supportive for extra curricular activites outside the college and inside the college too, with academic fairs and monthly conferences held at the many auditoriums. The curriculum is updated yearly and revised for every new batch entering, with extra curriculum subjects being included for almost every course. Language subjects are included for the first year, while our batch(2023-2026) had elective subjects for two years.

As a final year student the, SRM is providing the best placement training and preparation with partnership with T.I.M.E institute, but at extra cost over the course fees unfortunately. Placement opportunities are very good and on par with other top institutions of chennai, and the college staff are helpful with the placement process.

As far as course fees cost and other college fees goes it's affordable for most students and each course are reasonably priced with no hidden costs mostly. The only downside is the Transportation fees if you opt for college bus facility(which is air conditioned) it is very expensive for the inflexible bus timings and bus comfort, other than that it's a good college to choose if You are looking for a mid range under graduate college.

Campus life varies hugely depending on a lot of factors, for instance a day scholar like myself lose out on initial college life opportunities like events and tournaments due to after college timings , and department exclude entry for high level events are also there so it is not really great in that aspect, but over all there are multiple huge events, roadshows, stall/bazaar happening every week which is available for the students , the campus is massive and packed with canteens, hangout places, parks, etc.

Srm has a lot of reputation for a number of reasons, but as far as big campus universities go in chennai, srm has the optimal balance of all things with the right pricing and convience albeit while lacking few features and stuff. It is a good college

SRM IST Chennai shines with its remarkable infrastructure—offering world-class academics, extracurricular spaces, and student amenities all within a thoughtfully designed campus. It balances scholarly needs with comfort, convenience, and community, making it a compelling choice for those seeking a vibrant campus experience.

Academics at SRM IST offer plenty of opportunities through diverse programs, global collaborations, and a well-qualified faculty base. However, actual experience depends heavily on department, faculty, and how actively students engage—some praise the manageable workload and placement prep, while others call attention to lapses in academic rigor or institutional priorities.

SRM IST continues to perform strongly in placements, particularly in engineering streams. The overall metrics (offers, package averages, recruiter diversity) remain competitive, with top performers achieving standout packages. Personalized outcomes vary by department, preparation, and batch performance.

SRM offers great value in CSE with strong placements and global exposure, but high fees and average returns in other branches make ROI highly dependent on student effort and stream chosen.

SRM Chennai campus life is vibrant with active clubs, fests, sports, and cultural events. The large, green campus fosters a friendly atmosphere, promoting overall growth beyond academics.
