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!

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 infrastructure and facilities.

Infrastructure: So SRM has top-of-the-line infrastructure and labs (for example, labs like the "MAC LAB" - it's a lab for high-end computing, classes have ACs), and as for hostels, they are pretty good. There have been no issues till now. There is water 24*7, high-speed Wi-Fi, cleaning every day, laundry service, etc. Mess food is also okay; some days it's good, some days it's not.

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.

SRM thoroughly reviewed by a second-year student.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure for my branch is pretty good and world-class. It is one of the best reasons for doing Biotechnology from SRM. The laboratories and equipment are all up to the mark and modern, which is essential to give us hands-on experience, which is vital in our field. The hostels, on the other hand, are average at best. The first-year hostels are clustered to fit in as many students as possible, but at least there are rooms available, which reduce drastically for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th years. T...

Great faculty with high experience at SRM.

Infrastructure: SRM has a huge and attractive campus with different buildings for different branches like Law, Biotechnology, etc. There are two main buildings - the University building and Tech Park. On other websites, you will mostly SEE the Tech Park building displayed and it is the center attraction of the institute. Hostel rooms are not bad. One can comfortably live in two, three, or four sharing rooms with or without attached washrooms. Cleaning is done daily and all the needed furniture is provided.
