B.E. in Mechanical Engineering - Batch of 2025

3.6

4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life2Value for Money

The college gives independency to students.

Placements: The Mechanical Department has a 100 percent placement rate. The highest package is 13.5 LPA. The lowest package is 2.16 LPA. L&T, Sona Comstar, and পেট্রোল are the top companies. Fifty percent of our college students get internships. Our top placement is as a manager in Sona Comstar.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good for the students. It is connected to nature. The buildings are old but in good condition. There is a cafeteria for students and also a store on the campus. The cafe has all the food items. There are two hostels, one for boys and another one for girls. Boys' hostel timing is 6-9, and girls' hostel timing is 6-6. The food quality in the hostel is average. There is also a medical center near the hostel office. There is a huge ground to play on.

Faculty: The teachers have doctorates, and the teachers are fully knowledgeable, except for some people. But the teachers expect the students' own interest, and then the teachers are friendly on campus. The curriculum is relevant to the subject. It is based on the old syllabus, so it does not make the students ready for the industry. There are semesters every four months. Fifty percent is the minimum passing mark.

Other: I am interested in this course because of my uncle's suggestion. The course is good. The materials and machines are of the old type. If they were of the modern type, it would be useful for all.

I have really enjoyed studying here at the GCE, Salem, and here some key aspects of my experience.

Placements: GCE Salem has a great placement record. During the last placement season, major stalwarts including Accenture, TITAN, ARCADIA, TCS, Wipro, Cognizant, and Siemens visited campus. The highest package was 7 lakh per annum, while the average package was around 3.5 lakh per annum. The placement cell is quite active and provides students with large-scale training and preparation for interviews.

Infrastructure: GCE Salem features a well-maintained campus with modern facilities. Classrooms are equipped with the latest teaching aids, and laboratories are stocked with advanced equipment. The comprehensive library offers a wide range of books, journals, and digital resources. Students benefit from good Wi-Fi connectivity, sports facilities, and comfortable hostels with essential amenities.

Faculty: The faculty is one of the greatest strengths of our college. They have extensive teaching experience and always assist us with both academic and non-academic lessons. They consistently motivate us. The semester exams are not very difficult; if anyone attends classes regularly, they can easily pass. The passing percentage is always above 70%

My research paradise with Angel.

Placements: Almost 95% of students were placed through campus placements; the rest were not enrolled for placement as they planned for higher education. The highest package stood at 14 LPA from Ford, while the lowest was 3 LPA from Aquagreen with a three-year bond. Most of the companies offered Graduate Engineering Trainee (GET) roles, and some were ready to offer associate-level roles. Companies like TCS, Tech Mahindra, JSW, Tekla Structure, and Nissan played a major role in our placements.

Infrastructure: The college management provides good and commendable facilities like Wi-Fi, a library, and smart classrooms, with well-experienced faculty members. You'll enjoy hostel life, although the hostel food is average; compared to other hostels, it's good for the price. There is no canteen on campus, but there are some shops outside the college.

Faculty: The curriculum is well designed, using both conventional methods to clearly understand core concepts and incorporating modern technology in our final year, where we gain industrial experience. The semester exams are at a moderate level, and the questions focus on understanding, making it easy to clear all the papers if we spend about an hour daily on our topics.

Other: The fest in the college is really awesome and serves as a stress buster for both students and faculty members. Events like the Tamil Mandram, English club function, and department functions provide special relief for students, especially for final-year students.

Review of Government College of Engineering, Salem.

Placements: The placement in this year is very poor everywhere. Even the placement drive has only a limited number of companies. Most of the companies are startups and they offer a very low salary package. The top recruiting companies this year are Infosys and Cognizant. The highest salary package offered is 5 LPA. Last year, the placement drive was really good and we are hoping to get a better placement drive next year.

Infrastructure: The college is well-maintained, and the infrastructure is really good. There are a decent number of books in the library and the college has wi-fi facilities in every department. Hostel food is not that good, but the accommodations are really good in our college hostel. The college has excellent sports facilities and equipment. Many sports events are conducted every year.

Faculty: The teachers are good and well-experienced in their domain. The teaching quality is good, but the curriculum is partially relevant to our job. If the university had taken more steps to improve the curriculum, it would be better. The semester exams are conducted every 4 months, twice a year and the pass percentage is 50%.
