3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

A very large campus of 200 acres with greenery.

Placements: A separate staff is there to take care of placement from the 7th semester. We can appear for placement. A total of more than 50 companies visit the campus with the highest package of 7.4 LPA and an average package of 3.5 LPA. The placement percentage ranges from 80 to 90.

Infrastructure: The campus life is very good. Each department conducts 2 symposiums a year. There are around 15 clubs in the college that actively conduct various events for students. The hostel facility is not good, the maintenance is low, and no proper response is given by the hostel management for any issues.

Faculty: The curriculum is not as good compared to other colleges. We are studying core papers in the 5th semester, while others do that in the 3rd semester. We have 3 internals for which they take the average marks. Every faculty member is a qualified staff with great subject knowledge. They are easy to approach, and we can share our insights with them very comfortably. But some staff are different; they are very helpful for students to do real-time projects.

ACGCET, A place to enjoy college life with a decent placement, good facilities, and faculty members.

Placements: 50 percent of the students are getting placed in my college every year through the placement cell. The highest package of up to 12 LPA has been received by the seniors of past years, and the highest package from the Batch 2023-2024 was 8 LPA, with an average salary package of around 4 LPA. Companies like ZOHO, Wipro, WhiteBlue, Schneider Electric, L&T, Saint Gobain, Econ, etc., are recruiting students from our college. Internship opportunities are provided by DOTE (Director of Technical Education) to 50 members of each department in companies like Neyveli Lignite Corporation, NSIC, TVS, Southern Railways, etc. Apart from that, the placement cell is also arranging internship opportunities in companies like HAL, First Solar, Schneider Electric, Rather, etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is quite okay, but it needs some improvement. All necessary labs are available, and apart from that, Virtual Halls, Incubation Cell, IoT Labs, Special Halls, etc., are also available. For organizing functions, we have Murugapa Hall, Sangamam Hall, and the Open Auditorium. When it comes to the hostel, a new hostel has been built and given to 3rd-year students. 2nd-year hostels have been renovated, but still, a few buildings need renovation. Coming to the food provided at the hostel mess, it's decent with a menu repeating every week. No non-vegetarian food is provided in our mess, except for eggs. Wi-Fi facility is available within the college premises. A dispensary is available in the hostel premises. Our college has facilities and grounds for almost all games, including a new indoor stadium. Our college teams have participated in various zonal and state events and won many prizes in various games.

Faculty: All professors who are teaching in our college have cleared government examinations to get their job. Most of them have deep knowledge of their subjects and deliver them clearly. But when it comes to covering all topics in the syllabus, it's a question mark. To gain high marks, students have to learn a lot on their own. But all faculty members are ready to provide any assistance if needed. Apart from permanent staff members, temporary staff for teaching and technical staff for lab assistance are also there. The curriculum in our college is revised every 3 years, and it's completely relevant to the course we do. Fifty percent is the pass mark, and exams are easy to handle if enough preparation is done.

Other: The developing trends in automation and electric vehicles made me choose my course. In my college, good bonding and connectivity are available between seniors and juniors. Major events in my college are Zhagaram (Cultural event), Yaazh (Music Fest), Sports Day, Inter & Intra Symposium by all Departments, Installation, and Valedictory Function by Various Clubs, etc. Our college has lots of Clubs, which includes the Freshers' Association, Music Club, Rotaract Club, Leo Club, Entrepreneurship Development Cell, Build Club, ISTE Niram, etc. These clubs organize events, workshops, social activities, etc. A special thing in our college is that our college has a huge Alumni Support who provide lots of funds everywhere for the welfare of the college and students.
