Our college prepares us for the industrial work by providing hands-on experience and internships, etc. We usually have a higher-order thinking skill question that actually makes us think and analyze the problem and provide solutions.

This college is only good for placement and studies if you want to enjoy your college life try SRM.
Placements: About 90%-95% of students are placed in this college. For our course, the top salary package offered is 15 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 7 LPA. Top recruiters are Tata, IBM, and HCL. Internships are good here and roles which are offered in our course are plenty. I'm not sure what they provide but those are top stuff.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure and Wi-Fi are bad for main campus. Hostel alone is excellent. Wi-Fi is trash. Classrooms are average, similar to those in schools. Not many sports facilities are available. The quality of the food is not the best, it's just average, and not all food options are available.
Faculty: Not every teacher is knowledgeable, but they are helpful, friendly, and supportive. Teaching quality is average. College prepares students for interviews and the for GATE exam from the first year. Semester exams are easy, and pass percentage is about 97%.
Other: I chose this course for my higher education because I want to pursue higher studies in M.Tech robotics. ECE is the base course for all. There are a lot of things to improve this college, such as proper management and proper infrastructure, including the terrain, etc. Events are just way average. They are grabbing money in every possible way. Even for internal assessments, we need to pay for the booklets.

Academic Excellence and Cultural Celebrations: A Review of Chennai Institute of Technology
Placements: Chennai Institute of Technology has a well-structured placement system in place to help students build great careers. The placement cell works closely with the corporate world and provides pre-placement trainings. TCS, Wipro, or Infosys are all top recruiting firms with CIT.
Infrastructure: The academic and hostel infrastructures at CIT are structured to provide an effective learning environment. The classrooms are well equipped with projectors for interactive sessions, and well-maintained lab facilities are available. Spacious and hygienic hostels for both girls and boys are available with facilities like Wi-Fi, laundry, and nutritious mess food.
Faculty: CIT provides quality education with dedicated faculty members, a comprehensive curriculum coupled with an intensive exam system. The qualified faculty supports and integrates the student with modern industry trends and theories, with practical applications by hands-on experience projects.
Other: CIT conducts well-colored cultural events that help foster community spirit among the students. During Navratri, the students entertained the crowd with energetic performances like Garba and Dandiya. Traditional games, music, and a gran fest featuring Kerala cuisine mark the celebration of Onam. Activities like "Pookalam" competitions were conducted. On Independence Day, a flag hoisting ceremony with patriotic speeches and performances that lend national consciousness to the students. These events make campus life alive, cement relationships between the students, and communicate a message that culture is important at CIT.

Mess food is average and consumable for hostellers. College cultural, Takshashila is an emotion for CIT students. Also Celebration events are conducted for various festivals throughout the year. Students are not allowed to move from the class without prior permission from Class Advisor or Program Coordinator.
Faculty: Faculties are very much friendly with the Students which make the Students feel free to discuss with the faculties. They try to teach in a way, in which students understands the concepts. The course syllabus is designed in such a way, that the students start to learn core concepts of the department at first year itself. Up to 95 percentage of students clear the Exams without Arrears, the remaining 5 percentage of students face arrears due to their lack of interest in the subject.
Other: I chose Electronics and Communication because of my interest in the field to develop a new technology and change the world. And I chose CIT especially because of the Scholarship provided for Students from Counselling. Students with good cutoff who visit the campus before Counselling can obtain up to 75% waiver in the fees. Also they provide support for other scholarships such as NSP, TNSSP, etc. Other than Engineering, Students get many opportunities to express their other Extracurricular skills especially during Events, Culturals and so on.
