An okayish college experience.

Placements: Haven't been placed yet but from what I've heard from seniors, not everyone gets placement. It depends on our own efforts too, rather than depending on the college. In our field, portfolio is more important, so its better to develop it early on and apply for jobs off campus as well.

I am dissatisfied because of the faculty members, and there were no placements provided in 2018.

Placements: Placements are not provided by the college. But students are able to find jobs on our own. Some of us got to start our own design studios. The salaries offered varies from Rs. 15,000 per month to Rs. 25,000 per month. Almost 100% of the students do an internship because it was compulsory for our degree.

Helping alot to develop us in design and media field.

Placements: As a 3d animator, all the students are getting jobs according to their passion in animation. Even placements in their field is good. Internships are helping a lot for further knowledge and it's a really good field to work with creative and design area.

Saving the life of other students with creative abilities.

Placements: Ironically I don't even know whether there is a Placement department in this college. As far as I have known they don't even care 1% about whether you get placed or not, all they need is money. Once you pay the fees, complete the course you are on your own. I completed my college in July 2017 and I haven't got a single e-mail or call from placement department asking details about my Resume to help me get placed. Thanks to my widened knowledge I got placed in Bangalore in a reputed service based ...

A review on ICAT College, Chennai.

Placements: I am still studying in ICAT, and the best coaching is given here. It is the best college in India. The Chennai ICAT is better than Bangalore and Hyderabad colleges. The faculty here have the good practical knowledge, so they are too helpful for us to acquire knowledge. The admission here is worth.

I am satisfied with my faculty members and yes the placements also.

Placements: The student should get passed from their college. There is no percentage needed for this course. The lowest salary package is around 25 to 30k and the highest is around 56 to 60k. Every course has their different companies. Top roles are art director in the course. There are lot of companies like green gold, sports and lot of companies are there.
