Review of Goa College of Engineering.

Placements: I am from IT batch 2017. Very few top recruitment companies had visited for college placements which includes like Infosys, Persistent, IVP. Most of the job offers were for a software developer post. Rest all the companies were based in Goa. The average salary offered ranges from Rs. 25,000-30,000 per month.

A college which offer great memories. A campus worth studying.

Placements: Placements in GEC are decent. Companies like Bosch and others have frequently visited the campus for placements. Talking out the criteria for placements, students need to have an academic score of more than 60% in all semesters without any backlogs. The salary packages offered are decent enough. Internship opportunities are offered in those same companies, which also helps students to get placed in final placements.

A decent college. Overall, the college provides good exposure.

Placements: Placements of the college are below average. The college failed to place even 50% of students from our batch. Placement figures are inflated. Most of the companies that visited the campus were IT related and the job profiles offered weren't that great. Students were reluctant to go out of station as even the salary packages offered were low.

GEC is good for the overall development, and it teaches you a lot more than just engineering.

Placements: Sesa, Accenture, Cognizant, Nestle, Zoovari, Marine Elec, Buoyancy, Tech Mahindra, etc., companies visit the college. Placements were not much good compared to previous two years. But having said so, the placement office works hard to increase the placements. In recent years, a few more core companies related to mechanical have visited the campus to offer placements.

Learnt more about life than how engineering works.

The average package offered was around 3 LPA. Only students who had 60% aggregate marks got placed, and a majority of the remaining students didn't get campus placements. Regarding internships, college does not have enough time to provide the internships for students. There is two weeks time between semesters to do...

Satisfied with the college, but it could have been better.

Placements: The placements in the college were okay for our batch. The placement percentage of our batch was less compared to our senior batch.

Most sought out college, yet poor placements.

Placements: When it comes to placements in my branch, only 5 to 6 students got placed in the campus placements. Mostly, IT sector companies visit the campus for placements, and some were of electronics background. Similar conditions were present during the last few years. However, our head of department and placement officers are trying their best to improve placement figures every year. The highest salary that was offered for my batch was around five lacs per annum, and the average was 2.5 LPA. Companies l...

A good college marred by some incompetent syllabus, teachers and a sub par infrastructure.
