I am satisfied with the college, but for our course, there were no placements in 2018.
Placements: Almost 10% of CSE and ECE students got placed in our college, but not from civil, mechanical or other branches. The highest salary offered is Rs. 25,000 per month and the lowest salary offered is Rs. 20,000 per month. For our course, none of the companies offered an internship. But civil students got an internship at NCC under Tamil Nadu housing board, Ambattur and Chennai. We have done one more internship at Polavaram Irrigation Works in Andhra Pradesh.
Infrastructure: We have good and multiple libraries for departments with Wi-Fi availability. We have labs, separate classrooms for seminars, etc. Our hostel is a good place to live in Chennai because the food is very tasty. We have medical facilities for 24x7. Our college ground is huge, and every student will enjoy these activities.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are very helpful for students at any time. They are well-knowledgeable, and some staff members are PhD holders. Their teaching is excellent and understandable to us. Our course curriculum is good, but it offers low salaries at the starting of our career. We have sufficient knowledge to work in the companies.
Other: I have chosen this course because my passion is to be a civil engineer. The best thing about our course is labs and experiments. I wish the college to provide many labs for next coming students. In our college, weekly one fest will happen, which will be very enjoyable. Campus crowd is a bit more, but the surroundings are good. Our college provides scholarships. We have seminars and presentations for extracurricular activities.

The college is good with the good environment.
Placements: The placements are not up to the mark. For my junior's, I heard that some good companies are going to visit the campus. The average package for my senior batch is 1.8 LPA, and the highest package is 2.5 LPA. For my batch, the highest package is 2.42 LPA, and the average package is 1.2 LPA. For any other information about the placement, you can go to the college website.
Infrastructure: Well, coming to the hostel rooms, recently, they kept A/C to some of the rooms, and there are three members in a room. The hostels are well-maintained and had a good infrastructure. There is a Wi-Fi facility on the campus. The classrooms are well-cleaned, and the library is good. We have a canteen with good quality of food.
Faculty: The faculty members are helpful, and you can learn the subject there. Most of then can solve our doubts after the classes. The student to faculty ratio is 15:1. In my branch, some of my faculty have the practical experience, and that is helpful to the students.
Other: Coming to the fests, the college has some good clubs like a literary seminar and much more for their respective departments.

Overall, the study environment in the college is below average.
Placements: In the beginning, it promises that it gives placement in core companies. But in 4 years of graduation, no core company came for the interview. Few BPO companies came for training and services with a low salary package. That too they only hired only CSE AND IT departments students.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is only useful when you have a proper management system for the management team and faculty members. There's a lot of business between north and south students. Most of the teachers speak only Tamil language which is hard and impossible to understand for students from north region of India.
Faculty: Most of the faculty are M.Tech graduates, and even some were pursuing their M.Tech while in the teaching profession. There's some faculty who were helpful to students and making the things understandable in a better way. Overall, the faculty was below average.
Other: The connectivity was good. Events were not properly organised. Mostly the dates of events and programs keep fluctuating.

Good placements and the best college campus ever.
Placements: I got a placement in a big corporate company. My friends also in a good position in the company and we both paid a higher salary. Thanks to MGR University. There are many of my friends studied in my college and are also doing a great job in a good position. This is all because of MGR university founder. I really thank full to him.
Infrastructure: The facilities provided by the college are like 24X7 Wi-Fi, library facilities with air-conditioned rooms, medical facilities, sports quota admissions, and many more indoor games. There is the best canteen ever. The quality of food from the canteens are the best, but it is slightly higher in cost. Poor people cant buy enough food in the canteen.
Faculty: Staffs and professor are very helpful, especially for the slow learners. They give the full support and make us feel comfortable and make us get passed out. We have visited the industry visit many times, and that helped the slow learners.

* Teaching Quality: Most reviewers praised the teachers' qualifications, knowledge, and friendliness. Many mentioned that the teachers are helpful, guiding students to prepare for industry requirements.
* Course Curriculum: The course curriculum is considered relevant and helps students become industry-ready. Semester exams are generally manageable, and the pass percentage is relatively low (around 40%) due to the college's emphasis on academic rigor.
* Infrastructure: The college has decent infrastructure, with good classrooms, libraries, and sports facilities. However, the hostel conditions were described as "average" and the food quality could be improved.

* Career Prospects: Graduates from this course have a wide range of career opportunities, including roles in business, marketing, sales, human resources, and more.

Considering these factors, a B.Sc. degree from Dr MGR Educational and Research Institute appears to be a worthwhile investment for those seeking a strong foundation in their chosen discipline. With a good reputation for placements, teaching quality, and internship opportunities, the college seems to cater effectively to its students' needs.

However, prospective students should research further to weigh the pros and cons, considering factors like hostel conditions, food quality, and potential drawbacks in certain areas. By doing so, they can make an informed decision about whether this institution meets their expectations.
