Those were the rewarding 4 years of my life. Glad to have been a part of this institution.

Placements: The college website would provide more detailed answers and accurate numbers about the placements. As far as I can recall, placements during my last year were good. According to the college website, 126 students (both UG+PG) had placement offers. The senior batch had 126 offers too. Roles offered were mostly in IT companies like Accenture, TCS, Infosys, L&T, Diebold, etc. The highest salary package offered was 7 LPA, the average was 3.54 LPA, and the lowest was 1.80 LPA.

A good choice for your graduation.

Placements: Placements in our college were decent, ample in IT companies and less in core fields. A few non-technical companies also visited the college. The placement cell was helpful, and certain training sessions were organised. Moreover, the alumni help us a great deal. Overall, the placements were very satisfactory.

Good infrastructure and faculty, amazing cultural activities.

Placements: There are not much placement opportunities. 2-3 companies come for bulk hiring but the profiles were not exactly related to the course. However the companies are good MNCs so it's a good start for anyone who wants to give a try in that particular field. Companies I can remember that placed good number of students were ICICI Prudential and Wipro. Package can be somewhere around 1.5-2 lacs pa.

K. J. Somaiya - Proud to be part of this college!

Placements: Placement for Computers and IT were awesome. 95% of the students in the above branches did get placed. Average salary - 3.5 LPA and top 40-50 students get around 4.5 LPA. However, the scenario in Electronics and Mechanical was okay with only 50% and 35% students getting placed respectively.

One will enjoy their campus life, but don't go only for placements.

Placements: Placement opportunities were not that good because there would be a mix of BMS, B.Com, BAF, etc. The job profiles offered are also not that attractive. The main reason behind this is most of the students go for masters degree or professional courses like CA and CFA.

The students gain good learning experience with ample opportunities.

Placements: Every year, core placement has been a difficult task, and students opt for non-core jobs in such case, and the same was the scenario in our batch. However, you would get a job, but getting the core profile is difficult. Some good companies like Godrej, Mahindra, ThyssenKrupp, Mukund, and Bluestar visit the campus and hire the students.

It is a highly recommended college.

Placements: One cannot expect more placements at our college. There are few firms which recruit candidates. However, the response for internships is very good. There is an internship fair which practically hires interns. One can do well and perform better in our college. There is a placement cell in our college.

Good College with a decent placements.

Placements: Placements were decent for internship but many had to find from outside the campus as towards the end of the year not very good companies came to campus. At the beginning of the year companies like DE Shaw JPMC etc. Came but after January companies with almost no stipend and not so good profiles started coming.

One of the best engineering colleges.

Placements: The placements for my senior batch were really good. Nearly 80 percent of the students were placed. The highest CTC was 9 Lacs per annum and the lowest being 2 Lacs per annum. Multinationals like Colgate, L& T, Godrej were a part of the placements. In my batch, almost 70 percent of the students were placed and the entire batch had undertaken internships with support from our seniors. The placement cell is very cordial and turned out to be very helpful. However, I would like to mention that most ...

Good college with a great ROI.

Placements: The placements are decent in the college. There are many companies coming on campus. Few companies also recruit in pool campus organised in SIMSR. Most marketing students get placed in sales. Finance has a diverse profile to offer. The star attraction is the consultancy placements followed by BFSI and FMCG. Some start ups have also started recruiting recently from our campus. Very good in terms of ROI.

Impressive campus, good facilities, can only get better with time.

Placements: Good placements especially if you're in the IT field or the computer field. Mechanical people will have experiences with companies like L & T and Godrej. There's a good chance of getting a job on campus. Also, people from Mechanical field are allowed to take part in jobs involving IT background which offers as a plus for the Mechanical students.

The best in return on investment among other private colleges.

Placements: The placements for our senior batch were almost equivalent to the previous trends although GST and demonetization troubled the economy. They were offered an average package of 9.19 LPA. A lot of PPOs were offered for our batch compared to the senior batch. The placements were better in terms of the number of companies hiring and packages but low on the usual plethora of various core companies coming at the end of Q3. The average package rose to 10.05 LPA, thus I can say placements were on a good...
