Great place to study but can't enjoy your college days.

Placements: 100 percentage of students got placed in our batch because there was a great demand for freshers post COVID. The highest package is around 5 lacs per annum and the lowest package is 2.5 lacs per annum. My batch students got placed in companies like TCS, Wipro, Emphasis, Intellect arena, Zoho etc. 40% of students got internship opportunities. Roles like software developer, technical support, system engineer etc are offered to students.

The management is concerned only about marks, and a test is conducted every day.

Placements: More than 90% of students got placed, but the companies were not good. The packages were very low, and some companies only offered internships for one year. There were no top companies for recruitment. The roles offered were apprenticeship and trainee.

Real engineers can learn in any way, so they do not need to depend on institutes.

Placements: From our college, only 67% of the students were placed in corporate recruiters, which can offer an average salary package of about 5.5 LPA to up to 7 LPA. They offer the lowest salary package of 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies for the ECE department are Cisco and Amazon. But only 20% of the students got internships, which are not much related to our core field. Overall, it is a good college. Other than college, we can only achieve our dreams through our hard work.

Infrastructure and facilities are good, but dissatisfied with the faculty and placements.

Placements: Since we are the first batch in civil engineering, the placements offered are not up to the mark. Only a few construction based companies with salary package up to 2 LPA visited the campus for placements. Companies from Chennai also offered placements for students, but everyone didn't get any confirmation from them. Placements in the college might have improved now.

Dissatisfied due to infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: In placement, the maximum salary is of only 30000, so it is too difficult to get a job, so I guide you to choose VIT College. There are no jobs that suit you here, only small jobs will be available in placements, so don't think that you will be fulfilled with placements.

The review of Kingston Engineering College.

Placements: The placements are okay, and not bad, but this time, due to software collapsed, not much companies are interested in coming to college for drives, but last year, the placements were good. I hope, next year, the placements opportunities will be good. The college is trying to bring many companies for drives, but only a few of them will get their call letter from the company.

Absolutely dissatisfied with the behaviour of the faculty.

Placements: The placements will get only for those students who don't have any backlogs. Also, limited companies comes to the campus. The salary offered was too low. The companies like TVS, Caparo, Kaza will come for placement activities, and I don't think that placements are useful for students who expect a good pay scale. The core companies are limited in the campus.

This college is the best.

Placements: In the last semester, 3 or 4 companies come for placements. But, the vacancies will be only 3 to 4. Companies HR does not come to our college. We have to go to another college for placements. The companies are not too much good. The students who were recruited have to sign a bond for 2 to 3 years. If anyone leaves the company, they have to pay the penalty.
