Perks of being a KMKCPite.

Placements: 30 to 40% students get campus placements. The highest package offered is 35 INR per month and the lowest is 25 INR thousand per month. Top recruiting companies are HDFC BANK, ICICI BANK, IQVIA and many more. Internships provided by the college are 100%. Each and every student gets internship. Roles offered are in sales and marketing, quality control department and many more.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is quite good but there is no college campus as such. No playing ground of its own but internal is well maintained and it has a big library. The college has its own auditorium which is air conditioned and best. Good laboratories are there but always lack in chemical ingredients. There is no canteen in the college. There is a games room where students can play carom, chess and table tennis. There is also a quarantine area and medical rooms for students.

Faculty: Faculty is good and with well qualified teachers and are very supportive. Teaching is the best and there are many co curriculum activities are performed for the students.

Best and supportive faculty.

Placements: 92% of the total students were placed in my Ph.D. The highest package offered was 38 LPA, and the lowest package offered was 4 LPA. Many top companies recruit students from JBIMS, University of Mumbai. The recruiting companies are IBM, Cisco, and many top IT companies. 85% of the students have internship opportunities.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is amazing. More facilities are provided for our convenience. We have proper 24x7 free Wi-Fi in the hostel, and classrooms are cleaned every day. Hostels are kept clean, and labs have all the necessary equipment. The campus hostel mess food is excellent, offering many special food options during festivals. Sports are given a certain importance.

Faculty: Our teachers are the best. Yes, the teachers are very knowledgeable and treat the students very carefully. Exams are easy because of the faculty; almost all the questions are covered in the internals, making semester exams hard to fail. We are very thankful to our teachers. They prepare us for facing industry problems.

My college Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute.

Placements: The placement opportunities here are in abundance if you are a computer or IT student. Surely, you will be picked in for the on-campus interview. The internship process here starts once a student completes their second year of the curriculum, and there will be lots of companies who will be visiting the campus for the processes here.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure which is provided here is not that satisfactory, but the time is changing. In the coming years, I am sure that the college labs will have the latest technologies possible. The classrooms in some of the departments such as civil, mechanical are air-conditioned.

Faculty: The teachers here are not that much knowledgeable. There are also some faculty members who are very much qualified, and one can easily approach them for any problems, but the overall quality of the teaching staff was poor. The industrial exposure here is none. Those opportunities aren't provided here.
