Ours is autonomous college and I can easily say that our course is better than that of Mumbai University.
Advanced classrooms and advanced labs have made our college among the most looked upon college by the students.

Dislikes

Everything is updated here but the library as it still carries some old stock.

Placement Experience:

Ever since it has turned autonomous in 2018, we have more and more companies coming and the highest package in 2023 season was 58.4 lakhs. From Coforge, Amazon to Cognizant there's not a single IT company that doesn't visit our campus for placements.

The best thing in this college is it's large campus which is neat and clean all the time.
Other good thing is updated syllabus. They have industry ready subjects to study

Dislikes

Examination cell of this college is worst. No proper planning. No timing for exams or for any important work. They do whatever they want to . They give the results very late. And have very complex structure in system. And very rude exam cell head.
Infrastructure is like 40 50 years old. They should really work on it

Placement Experience:

After 6th sem mostly students can sit in the placements and they shouldn't have any backlogs for it.many companies visited but the number is decreasing i guess every year. Good companies like jp morgan and Deloitte and other has visited here. Highest package in the college for last year was about 58 lakhs annually but it was a dubai based company. In domestic highest was nearly 25 lakhs. Average for computer engineering and it branche might be nearly 11 to 13 lakhs

K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering - [KJSCE]: 6 Answered Questions

Why is K.J. Somaiya so famous in Mumbai when I can’t see any mechanical placement there?

Even if you don’t land a high package you might learn better skills than at any other college. The same is the case with KJ Somaiya, it offers the following advantages which overlook its average placement statistics

Comprehensive curriculum: The curriculum here is vast as it covers versatile audit courses like Entrepreneurship, Business Analytics, Sales, History of Mumbai.

Is the EXTC at KJ Somaiya good for placements?

Carolyn LionelB.E. Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering (2019)

KJ Somaiya has a great bunch of professors and well-equipped laboratories. They have pretty amazing placement records. Electronics and Telecommunication engineering placements are as good as that of CSE and IT branches at KJSCE.

The following table gives a brief overview of the institute:

Particulars	KJ Somaiya Engineering College
Placement rate	85%
Number of students placed	67
Number of recruiting companies	87
Highest CTC offered	18.75LPA
Average CTC offered	5.57 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Amazon, Infosys, IBM, Deloitte, Voltas, etc.

The placement scenario at KJ Somaiya College of Engineering is pretty good and surely is promising. More than eighty industry giants recruit every year from the EXTC branch alone. EXTC students are allowed to sit in placement rounds of both core and IT industries.

Is the electronics branch at KJ Somaiya good in regards to placements as well as faculty wise?

Saija LuthraAlumni of KJSCE

As you may be aware, KJ Somaiya is autonomous, so the curriculum and coursework are both flexible. Furthermore, the exams will end earlier, resulting in longer vacations that can be used effectively for internships or summer courses. Because of its autonomous status, a large number of companies come to recruit.

If you score 50% overall, you are eligible to apply to all companies. Whatever your field, the same set of companies will come, and if you aren't eligible, you can apply from elsewhere.

What is a salary package after completing a B. Tech in Computer engineering from KJ Somaiya?

Poonam JainStudied at K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering (2017)

The college offers a package ranging from 3 LPA to 12 LPA. The placement process starts at the beginning of the 7th semester till the middle of the 8th semester.

Some companies are categorized as dream and non-dream companies by the students themselves. The companies which offer a package of 5 LPA or above are termed as the dream company and the one that offers a package of less than 5 LPA are termed as the non-dream companies. Companies offering a dream package for CSE and IT are aplenty.

Categories	Computer Engineering at KJ Somaiya
Course Fee	11.44 lakh
Placement Percentage	80-100%
Highest CTC	13 LPA
Average CTC	5 LPA
Recruiting Companies	Microsoft, Capgemini, Accenture, Wipro, Info Edge, IBM, TCS, Infosys, etc.

Furthermore, if you end up being the lucky one among all the students and get selected in any of the dream companies in the first attempt itself, then you cannot sit for any other company and will have to take up that job. But if you are selected in two non-dream companies, you are no more eligible to sit for the placement process any further. You have to select any one of the two companies you have been selected for.

To get a good, impressive package, you need to maintain a good CGPA which is 6.0-7.5 and above. All the ATKTs must be clear, only then you would be able to see the various opportunities that would come your way.

Considering good placements and packages, which branch should I opt for: EXTC or IT in the KJ Somaiya College of Engineering?

Shivaanya KherB.Tech from IIT Delhi

My sister studied at KJSCE and grabbed an offer to work with TCS. So you should not concern yourself about placements because it is excellent. It's an autonomous institute, so more companies are visiting now.

If you're joining KJSCE because your goal is MBA then keep in mind that even if you amass good work experience, it matters from where you have gained that experience from. For example, having experience in the mechanical field won't get you the IT job you aspire to. So choose the branch that interests you because you'll have to spend 4 precious years in that.

Who knows, even after 4 years of engineering with 3 years of work experience making it a total of 7 years, you might notice huge changes in your thought process. And even after its completion, when you go for placements, your field of study in UG will matter. Let’s say you are appearing for a managerial post in an IT firm, then you will definitely have a better preference if you did your UG in IT or CSE.

It’s good to think ahead but don’t just choose a branch based on the placement.

Which is the best branch at KJ Somaiya Engineering, considering faculty and placements?

Arjun PandeyB.E. from K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering (2017)

According to my friends studying there, KJSCE is well equipped with infrastructural facilities, including separate hostels for boys and girls, more than 70 labs, a widespread library, classrooms and seminar halls, a spacious auditorium, sports equipment and infrastructure, and a medical centre.

Fee and Placement

Fee	INR 11.35 Lakhs
Average Package	INR 5.71 LPA
Highest Package	INR 40 LPA

KJSCE has the best mechanical engineering faculty but it has fewer placements. The placements for the Computer Science and IT branch are the highest. The majority number of students get placed from these two branches. These branches are the baggage of opportunities. Even if you are unable to crack top interviews, there are still opportunities to go with mass recruiters like Infosys, Accenture, Capgemini, and others.

To conclude, the branch branches to pursue in terms of return are CSE and IT in KJSCE, but Mechanical Engineering is the best for academic learning.
