What Students Say?

Likes

3 years (6 semesters) after diploma and 4 years (8 semesters) after plus two, University exams are held at the end of each semester. Industrial visits take place after 3 years. Campus placements occur after the 7th semester. There are good academic facilities. There is an excellent training program. The infrastructure is good. There are good entertainment programs.
Students may also pursue internships by applying on their own, and the college will provide duty leaves for them.

Dislikes

College does not provide internships; we have to find them ourselves. If we request permission from the principal, there is a small chance we might be granted it.
College has no mens hostel; only girls hostel is available on the college campus. They have shared accommodation with lower rent and an average mess facility. The colleges infrastructure is also average. Since there is no mens hostel, boys have to search for private accommodations

There are many things that you would like about the college, for me it was the supporting faculties that had taught us during the due course. Their affection towards our class as a whole along with their thorough mentorship iwas so sholesome.
Men's Hostel facilities were not available in the campus .So we had to stay in a rented house .It was the foremost thing I liked about being in a college.The memories and its musings are still nostalgic.

Dislikes

There is no playground in the campus due to lack of alloted space.The cultural events are hence held on other grounds.
The lack of men's hostel in the campus can be considered as a huge setback for the campus. students occassionaly face challenges in finding proper places to stay.

Placement Experience:

Placements are conducted during the seventh and eighth semesters of the course. There is a dedicated placement cell on the campus to ensure credibility and authenticity throughout the recruitment. Placement pre-talk sessions are also conducted by various MNCs and tech institutions.

2.8Helpful

Likes

Friendly atmosphere and teachers are very helpful and interactive
Culture fests and arts in the college is vibrant

Course Curriculum Overview:

I think the duration for each semester is very short and is tiring. Students may not be able to cope up with the pace of this curriculum. I think each semester should atleast last for a period of 5 or 6 months. Extra curricular activities should also be promoted

College through my eyes

3.9Helpful

Likes

It is a small but a beautiful college. Because of the reduced area, students can interact with each other really well.
Portions are completed by the faculties of every departments. Doubts are cleared through extra classes as well as online classes.

Dislikes

Personally i wanted to be in a college which is really spacious with lots of grounds and all.
College is approximately 1 or more kilometers from pmg junction. There is no bus stop in front of college.

Course Curriculum Overview:

As per me personally, i am interested in aerospace engineering. But there are no government colleges via keam entrance where aeronautical engineering is present. So i chose mechanical engineering which was my next option. I am interested in studying about mechanisms inside the machines, vehicles etc. Im really interested in space technologies also. Thermodynamics, fluid machinery, mechanics, solids are all seemed interesting for me rather than civil or electrical subjects. I also am interested in the manufacturing of missiles, and machines there in defense field. So overall mechanical engineering seemed approachable for me. Coming to my college ,the mechanical faculties here are really supportive. They are always ready to provide information regarding our doubts. Recently they even conducted a session with well known scientists who have worked in VSSC. It was an interactive session where students were able to clear there doubts regarding aerospace fields. Mechanical faculty is the best.
