CEG is a dream college where a student can explore anything he/she is interested in.
Placements: Most of the people from IT department who had no arrears got placed in good companies. Many big companies came for placements. The highest CTC package offered in 2019 was around 23 LPA including stocks. Microsoft, Uber, Myntra and Goldman sachs came for placements.
Infrastructure: Classrooms in CEG are decent. Most of the classrooms are projector enabled. Most of the times, our classes are in the same building. For general topics, classes happen at knowledge park building. For department specific subjects, classes happen in classrooms in department building.
Faculty: In most of the classes, teachers are brilliant. They inspire students to study. They guide the students most of the time. The courses need to be changed in terms of practical subjects. Since I chose IT department, I feel if there were subject where you have to do project by yourself then that would have been very helpful.

It is a very good college, which has good teachers, great placements and great infrastructure.
Placements: I am from the 2017 batch, and our college is providing internships this year for us. Good opportunities are available in our college, so we have to prepare well for them and utilise them. Approximately 80% of the students got placed from our course. The highest salary package offered is around 30 LPA and the average salary package offered is 10 LPA and the lowest salary package offered is 4 LPA. Top recruiting companies for our course are DE. Shaw and Morgan Stanley. Top roles offered in our course are software engineer and tester. About 30% of the students got internships from our course, and companies which offer internships are Samsung, SAP Labs, Expanion, Amazon, FourKites, etc.
Infrastructure: Facilities available for our course are labs with air-conditioning and neat classrooms with projector facility and touch pen supported whiteboards. Wi-Fi facility is provided so that we can learn a lot with the help of internet. The library is a very beautiful thing here, and we can use the books there, or we can borrow by registering. Our college has good hostel facilities for both boys and girls separately. The food served here is good and better than most of the other colleges. The canteen facility is also provided. Our college gives great importance to sports and games the same as academics. There is a health centre for students in case of medical emergencies.
Faculty: Our college has good faculty members and friendly lab assistants. Teachers are very experienced, friendly, helpful, well-qualified and knowledgeable. Their teaching quality is very good. The course curriculum is very relevant so that we can gain knowledge in every possible way. Every subject is an in-depth version of the course. The syllabus is enough to make the students industry-ready.
Other: I chose this course since I am interested in computers since from a very long time. My father is a professor of computer science, so we had computers at our home for a long time. I learnt a lot about computers, and I got very interested in them. I wish that our college should improve the course in ways like it should support the senior-junior relationship so that seniors guide us to prepare well. A lot of events are organised on our campus. Every department has its own inter and intra-college symposium in which many technical, non-technical and workshops are conducted. Cultural activities are awesome here. The campus surroundings are very social, and we get a lot of friends here. The campus crowd is good. Every student who is good at academics will join in our campus only. Scholarships are provided for students who are eligible. Extracurricular activities are highly supported.

It is a prestigious college with good infrastructure and nice campus to learn.
Placements: The placements for the college is good for the computer science and the IT department. But for the department, the chances are less and restricted. The placement cell is not taking necessary steps for the betterment of the placement opportunities for other departments. And for computer science and IT too, they are not negotiating the package. They have the power to negotiate.
Infrastructure: The college has the facility of a free Wi-Fi, a good library, good classrooms, and affordable canteen. On the infrastructure-wise, it is a good campus. They provide facilities which are not available even in the private colleges. The laboratories are good enough to provide practical knowledge, and every equipment is available for use.
Faculty: The faculty of this college are well-experienced. Only some staffs are good enough to teach students. Many staffs are even not eligible to take the exam of the 10th standard based syllabus. This is the only drawback of the college.Among them, very few staffs are highly qualified, and many of them are under-qualified.

Q:   Does College of Engineering Guindy accept JEE score?

A: 
Yes, the Government College of Engineering (CEG) in Guindy, Chennai accepts JEE Main scores for admission to its B.Tech programs
 
However, some colleges conduct their own entrance exams instead of relying on JEE scores. 
 
For Tamil Nadu students, admissions are based on normalised aggregate marks in Class XII PCM through TNEA counselling. For other state students, admissions are based on Anna University counselling. 
 
Other engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu that accept JEE Main scores include: 
 
  • National Institute of Technology (NIT), Trichy
  • Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT), Chennai
  • Shanmugha Arts, Science, Technology & Research Academy (SASTRA University), Thanjavur
