K. J. SIMSR has a great campus and variety of different courses for the students. SIMSR is now granted autonomous status from Mumbai University for MCA course too. I really liked the infrastructure and facilities provided by the institute to students. Classrooms have all the necessary equipment and utilities for academics. Fully Wi-Fi enabled and digital classrooms, with a great library where you could find any type of books. Now, SIMSR has all renewed their computer labs with new computers with...

All the classrooms are air-conditioned that keeps studying environment to remain conducive. The sports facilities are good, with a cricket and a football ground. The college does provide a hostel. There is no system of donation, admission is based purely on merit, and the system is transparent. The faculty is slightly better for the PGDM course, as compared to MMS, but the syllabus is almost parallel. The campus is an entire complex, which is certainly the biggest campus in all of Mumbai Univers...

Infrastructure of the college is very good. Canteen food is nice, there are two eateries, one is main canteen and the other is a snack-bar which provides all types of snacks such as bhel, pani-puri etc. Some of the faculty members are very good in teaching and some are equally bad. The best part is that there is a R&D lab called riidl where I worked as chief project innovator, here you can develop innovative projects. College fests are decent.

The college has great infrastructure, great amenities & good hygienic campus. The College has a Big Name in Mumbai but the fees is high when compared to other engineering colleges in Mumbai & faculty is just okay. I would recommend my college to students who can study on their own & are not dependent on teaching of the college.

My college has the best campus. The infrastructure is not so good but all practical labs and library are well maintained. So who ever has a Gujarati minority, I suggest you to take admission in Kj Somaiya college of Engineering. College canteen is also good and the teaching staff members are also very good. But only drawback is the fees. It has fees of 1.20 lakhs which is almost the highest in Mumbai.

Very good college with good placement record overall. Especially for Computer Engineering and Extc. Now getting the autonomous grand, the companies would be rushing in. Also the college campus is one of the best in Mumbai spread across 65 acres. The engineering canteen is very famous for all types of food. Especially for cheese, bread pakoda, south Indian delicacies and Chinese.

Best college if you are looking for placements after graduation. Students take admission here because of the placements. Placements at KJ Somaiya College of Engineering (KJSCE) are good and have a track record of placing at least 70% students. Comps and IT being at the top. 95% of the companies are software based companies. Though the average salary is same as any other engineering college that is 2, 50,000/-pa, the highest salary was 9.5 Lakh.

Good faculty, great campus, labs facilities are good. But most of crowd is Gujarati, so if u are an outsider then initially face some adjustment issue. Otherwise it’s a good college. Provides you many opportunities to grow in academic as well as in sports. And the placement is always good of this college. Fee structure is bit on high side.

It is autonomous now!! Placement is good. Faculty is very helpful and understanding. You get to enjoy college life as well. The fees is exorbitant though. Being a Gujarati minority, 50% of the seats are reserved for Guajarati’s though you always see more than 75% of Gujarati minorities in this college. As per engineering standards the crowd is good enough at KJ Somaiya College of Engineering (KJSCE). Fortunately, over the last couple of years, the crowd has been good and you really meet a lot of...

College was great, awesome peer, best two years of your life. But again Mumbai being the financial capital having so many colleges, getting placements become very tough. It’s ideal you start doing internships early on and get skills to go ahead in the rat race.

A college with best infrastructure in the city. It gives the students a chance to excel in their particular domains. The faculty members are both strict and friendly with the students. The college fests grow each year and become huge in terms of public as well as sponsorship. It has now become an autonomous to add a cherry on the cake. Students have a really very good campus life and canteen is also good.

The college, besides having a good educational background, also marks top position in organizing events, festivals, and other extracurricular activities. The best thing about this college is The Principal, who always encourages us to move forward in whatever we initiate. It’s a perfect destination for the new beginning.

The institute has a mixture of pros and cons. The college has an excellent campus. Placements are up to the mark. There are various clubs to join and extra-curricular also. The college is very strict in attendance. Faculties are ok, not that great and since its autonomous now too much power is there in hands of the teachers.

The college has an excellent brand recognition in the market. The college has begun steps to connect the alumni and the current students which is helping the current students to understand what is really required to be in the industry.

Located in one of the central locations of Mumbai, this is one of the very few colleges that treats education as a value and not as business. If you have a zest to improve and enrich your personality along with decent placements, then this is the right place for you. Nothing is forced, but left to the individual. Campus life and infrastructure is top class. The corporate connections of the college are well utilised in terms of guest lectures and placements.
