Good faculty, hygienic food, and strict rules.

Placements: The placements are good in our college, but this year (2018) it was poor than our seniors batch. However, our college strives hard to bring as many as companies. The various companies which came to the campus are Infosys, CTS, MindTree, Amazon, Zoho, Tata communications, etc.

In college, a good training given for placement and there is good infrastructure.

Placements: The placement was good for our seniors batch. This year 2018 batch placements are still going on, and many companies are visiting the campus. The college gives good training for placement, and on an average, the overall placement percentage was around 80%-90% for our seniors.

the college have some good and bad reviews.

Placements: In our college, the placements are better compared to other colleges. The management itself provides the placement training for the students during the course. It helps us to achieve more during the placement session, because of this many students were placed in the MNCs.

One of the top engineering colleges in OMR

Placements: Considering the placement of the (2013-2017) batch is good, there will be bulk recruitment from IT sectors like (Wipro, Infosys, TCS, Tech Mahendra, etc.), 70 percent of students will be placed in IT sectors because of bulk requirement and Zoho will be premium recruiter with the highest package considering the above with the minimum number. Apart from that, core organizations like MRF tyres and Sanmar visited and the hired percentage was very minimum. Internships were not organised by the placem...

Time and Tide wait for none.

Placements: The placements are good, which are very useful. Everyone can get placed and do the work. Everyone is offered a job everywhere the jobs are available. You have to put the hard work of getting equipped. Now and then the jobs are available. You should perform well.

Overall review of the college

Placements: More than 60% of the students who didn't have backlogs got placed in various IT companies. The highest salary is around 6 LPA and the lowest is 2.5 LPA in companies like Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, HTC, HCL, etc. as a software developer. Chances for internships and live projects are less since they won't provide time for these kinds of activities.

College rules are a bit strict. Food & hostel are excellent. Good sports. Exam schedules are tiring.

Placements: Companies started visiting our campus in August end. Our batch's placements were some of the best in the last few years. Almost 90% of the eligible students (eligibility criteria being no standing arrears for most of the companies, though a few companies like Zoho, Soliton did not have any criteria and only tested your programming knowledge.) More than 700 students were placed in Cognizant. Cognizant, Wipro and Infosys visited our college on day zero. Around 15 from our department were placed in...

Choose it but keep your senses open.

Placements: Placement is good but the negative point is that only IT industries visit the college and take students who are good in programming in which only CSE and IT student get placed. Very rarely, core students are placed in IT. So anyone who is thinking to take up core stream in this college for good placement, forget that you will ever get a job from here until you are good at programming.

The college is average, but it can be improved in terms of rules.

Placements: Many students got placed, and most of them got their call letter at an earlier rate also. But the companies which visited the college for placements are not very good as most of them were IT companies. Very few or none of the core companies visit the college to offer placements for every department.

Really good infrastructure under VTU University.

Placements: Around 80% students are getting placed. Very rare core companies visit for ECE department. However, many IT companies arrive with an average package of 2.5 LPA to 4 LPA. Placements starts with the companies such as TCS, Tech Mahindra, ITC and Infotech as mass recruiters. In addition many startup companies and growing companies also visits the campus for placements.

You can join this college if you don't get a seat in the top 5 colleges in the state.

Placements: The placement in St. Joseph's is at par with the top engineering colleges in the state. The placement percentage is also good as compared to other colleges. It is a good choice if you want to get into an IT company. And they always take people in bunch. You would be notified of any off campus opportunities also.

The placement of this college is up to the mark but the mess is not good. Faculty is experienced. Hostel is good and workshops are well equipped. Spiritual activities are encouraged. Many activities are being practice which motivates students. The college is situated away from the city.

It has a good campus and infrastructure. The faculty is also good and cooperative. Labs are also well equipped. The support from the management is average. Hostels are within the campus. Foods is just okay. College and hostel staff is strict to certain extend. It is located in a remote place but college bus services are available to all nearby towns. Placements are also average. The canteen is good.

SJCE in OMR is one of the Jeppiar Institutions. It is a good college. Students who excel in sports are allowed to compete in intercollegiate and other sports competitions. As for placements, companies like Cognizant, TCS and Infosys are some of the favourites among the students. Students can easily get placed through placements. However, there are very few companies that are related to non-IT specializations. As for academics, there are very few professors who are dedicated to their teaching...

The College can be rated 6 out of 10. It has good placement record. Most of the students get placed with salary packages of around 4-5 lakhs per annum. But the college lacks in crowd and campus life. You would miss college life here. The Faculty members are mostly fresh in their career, so they lack experience in the teaching sector.

Our College has good Infrastructure. One of the best thing that we got from our college is Food. It has good Mess Facility serving both Veg and Non-Veg food. One would surely miss the food once they left the college. 75% percent of the students would get placed through Campus placement every year. Some of the guys find it very difficult to be here, because the college remains very strict when compared to other colleges around. That would be the only drawback of our College.

The placements are very good and it has a wide number of companies in the IT sector coming for recruitment. The college is far away from the city making it a little difficult to access the city as and when required. The extra-curricular fests and cultural events are a little less in this college.

The college is known mostly for its salary and placements likewise, they are able to delivery in this section. The top IT firms in Chennai come for recruitment here. The college is ranked in the top 10 in Anna university affiliated colleges. The college has early starting hours which can be a little disturbing.
