Q:   How is SRM Chennai in terms of faculty, infrastructure, placement, etc.? Is it worth going to SRM if you want a bright future?

A:
  • College Infrastructure: SRM has a well-defined layout in terms of infrastructure. The campus is spread over a large area, with all the basic facilities provided. There are huge grounds and indoor courts for sports; the gymnasium is made for the students of the college. The library is technically advanced and has a good collection of books. The classrooms are well maintained with smart boards installed, and the washrooms are clean. The canteen has diverse varieties of food that are hygienic and affordable.
  • Academics: CSE has proven to be a good course for me as it aligns with my interests and liking for computers and programming. The course is well updated, and even the curricula followed in college fall in line with the skills required in the job sector. The course has a lot of research and practicality, which definitely makes one job-ready. The teachers are cooperative and experienced, and they mentor each student at every point.
  • Placements: Approximately 70% of the students get hired in the recruitment drive held by the college. The placement drive is held in the most efficient manner. The average package is around 5 LPA, which is a good kickstart for any student in their respective fields. The college has a placement cell that is responsible for inviting firms to the college and guiding fellow students in getting placed, hence making the college supportive. The placements must be inclusive of all the courses, which is a demerit.
  • Value-for-money: The annual tuition fee structure was a bit on the expensive side, as my yearly fee was around 3 lacs p/a, which might not be affordable for many students. But the quality of services and education, with all the basic amenities, make SRM worth the investment. Personally, SRM is making each penny count.
  • Campus Life: Though the college is isolated from the main part of the city, it is glorious from the inside. There are sports activities in the college and many cultural societies, like dance and music societies. Moreover, there are various clubs that keep on participating in educational competitions. Various seminars are held and several festivals are conducted throughout the year, making college life happen. There's a medical room to handle any emergency as and when it arises!

SRM is best private university for higher studies in South India.

Infrastructure: Campus is attraction of this institute. College campus is filled with greenery and there is Wi-Fi in whole campus. SRM has a cultural fest called Milan and other' technical fest too. Many events and shows were organised throughout academic year. I have stayed in girls hostel for two years and it is good with gym and tennis and basketball court. Mess food is dissatisfying sometimes.

Good infrastructure and very good placements, but placements are only for those who perform well.

Infrastructure: Labs are very good, with high-quality equipment and good infrastructure, but the network is slow. Hostels are good, but not worth the money. They charged 2.5 Lakhs for my ECE course in the first year, and now they are charging 3.5 Lakhs for first-year students. College fees are very high at this university.

Only join this college if it is your last resort.

Infrastructure: The only decent thing about SRM is only the main campus (not sure about the other campuses). Classes in the University building are air conditioned but it is the only building with air conditioning as of now. The library is really good. with plenty of places to sit along with a vast variety of books. Only issue is that you might not always find a place to sit that has a plug point, in case you want to use your laptop. The Wi-Fi is available within the university and in the tech park buildings.

Good college, with ample opportunities to enrich skills. Placements are good.

Infrastructure: SRM has good infrastructure with classrooms (air-conditioners rarely felt) and a two-floor library. Wi-Fi is available in college. Hostels are safe with strict security and no ragging. The hostel food is good with a daily new menu. There is a pool and two large grounds.

Life of a girl in SRMIST.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is great. Wi-Fi is available all around the campus. Buildings are very well-maintained and built in such a way that looks real. However, the same can't be said for all hostels, some are well-maintained while others are neglected.

The worst college for subjects and placements. I don't recommend you to join this college.

Infrastructure: The facilities are average but the fee we are paying is higher. Facilities like Wi-Fi is available but it won't work properly, labs have systems but AC doesn't work properly. There is always some maintenance work going on. Library is often cool compared to the remaining infrastructure. Classrooms are not well maintained. Hostel is good but the security was very strict, at times they conduct checking in the rooms disturbing the privacy.

There are good facilities and infrastructure in our college.

Infrastructure: Good facilities. Good hostel facilities and food is okay in our hostel. And in our hostel, there are more conditions and rules. If we break the rules, then we need to get a punishment, whatever they say. So, the students obey the wardens' words so that they won’t get any punishment.

Absolutely dissatisfied with the high tuition fee as compared to the placement scenario.

The chemistry lab, engineering graphics lab, semiconductors lab, and various other coding core subject labs were all well-equipped. The campus has Wi-Fi, and the classrooms have projectors and centralized AC. The hostel facilities are good, and the quality of the food in the mess is average.

The college is good. But you should only join, if you don't have any other option.

Infrastructure: The campus is gigantic. It's beautiful. The class is spacious. The library is amazing. The hostel is good and nutritious. The canteen is good and is filled all the time. They have various sports here and national-level chances if you are good at that sport. They have recently opened a swimming pool, so it's good.
