- The way of teaching is very poor as compared to private institute.
Course Curriculum Overview :
As it is an autonomous institute its syllabus updates very often as per industry norms. Every course is designed very carefully considering the needs of the industry and can help in competitive exams as well. But there is always room for improvement, rather than being theory oriented teachers should teach courses practical or application-oriented.
Internships Opportunities :
Around 60% of students receive internships with an average stipend of 50000. Most of the students receive pre-placement offers. Some of the top companies are CITI, BNY Mellon, Wells Fargo, Finiq, Deutsche Bank, Barclays, etc.
Placement Experience :
From the 5th sem onwards companies offer internships to 3rd-year students and in the 7th sem the placements cycle starts. Every year around 200+ companies visit campus and almost every student who appears for placement receives an offer. Some of the top recruiters like D E Shaw, and Arcesium offer around 50 lakhs, and others like Wells Fargo, BNY Mellon, CITI, and Deutsche Bank offer around 20-25 lakhs. Overall average CTC offered is around 10-12 LPA for the CS IT branches and 8-9 LPA for non-CS IT.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
COEP is a government institute so its fees are less as compared to other colleges. For the general category, students complete course costs around 4 lakhs (90600 per year), and for OBC/VJNT students it is around 3 lakhs. SC/ST student fees are as low as 5000 per year. As COEP has been given a deemed university status, fees are considerably increased to 1,20,000 per year.

Also, various private and government scholarships are there such as Schindler, Mahadbt(given by gov of Maharashtra).
Campus Life :
There are three main fests Mindspark, Impression, and Zest. Mindspark is considered one of the biggest technical fest in India held in August. Impression is a cultural fest held in December and Zest is a sports fest held in January. Along with these three, there is one more fest called Regatta which is more than 125 years old and also known as the boating festival.

In general, OBC and SC females are around 276, 464, and 4050 respectively. MHT-CET is considered as medium-level exam as it covers only state board syllabus.
Faculty :
Not every faculty is as good as it should be, very few faculties show involvement in productive teaching rather than just sliding ppts. But some are really good, take their job seriously, and show involvement. Everything depends on your enthusiasm. Some teachers are at god level if you approach them, they will help in your research or in personal life problems as well
