Absolutely satisfied but some changes can be done for some entertainment purposes.

Placements: Most of the students got placements in different companies. Zoho is one of the companies that will not see the CGPA or HOA (history of arrears). Everyone will get 100% placements in top companies. Top companies prefer top roles like R&D department including roles like manager, etc.

To get placed and be in a protected environment, Velammal is good.

Placements: In the year 2024, 90% of Velammal students were placed. Placement is really good, and everyone gets placed. Some students with backlogs or who are interested in higher studies or business opt for those fields. The top companies that recruit are Zoho, TCS, Wipro, Presidio, and Amazon. Over 50 companies come for placement every year. The highest package was 9.2 lacs, and the average package is around 4 lacs per annum.

Review about my college .

Placements: Maximum number of people getting interns, and sometimes they paid us for interns, and mostly freshmen not getting top roles; they get only freshmen roles in companies, and 80 percent of students getting placements, and not too much difference between average packages and the lowest packages.

Not really good, but I have really good friends.

Placements: I am studying civil engineering. My batchmates and I haven't received any placements yet. All students in my course get internships, but no one in my batch has received one yet. We are scheduled for internships next summer. However, I have currently received an internship offer from Eversendai company.
