Did NIOS students get admission in Kongu Engineering College Erode? How much percentage do I need? I studied PCM.

Yashwant Rajendra

08 Sept 21

The eligibility criteria are different in all the private colleges according to their rules and norms.

The National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) doesn't cater to the open education system and it seems that it doesn't have value but that's not true.

Although, in general terms, to get admission to Kongu Engineering College, Erode, you should have at least 50% aggregate in your 12th standard with the subject as physics, chemistry, and maths as the main subjects. At least 45% marks if you fall under the reserved categories (ST, SC, OBC, etc.).

Soham Kaushik

According to some of my friends studying at Kongu Engineering College, there are four networks available here. They include:

BSNL (Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited) - It is the soul of the internet at the campus of Kongu Engineering College as they are the service providers for the internet.
Airtel - With the good signal and speed, the second most used network of Kongu Engineering College is Airtel.
Jio - When we talk about bandwidth, Jio has earned a point here as it has better bandwidth than the other networks.
Aircel - It is the last network that is hardly available on the campus of Kongu Engineering College as the college itself is situated in a remote area. It has a lower bandwidth and a poor network.

These were the four networks available on the Kongu Engineering College's campus. A person can choose any of the above-mentioned networks but don't opt for Aircel as it has a very poor network and is not beneficial. Rest BSNL, Airtel, and Jio three are all decent options.

Which college is better, Kongu or MEPCO?

Aria Ghose,

02 Nov 21

One of my friends studied at Kongu Engineering College. According to him, it will be a better choice than MEPCO.

In MEPCO there are times when students have to abide by certain petty rules and regulations, like using mobiles, being unable to attend symposiums, etc.
In Kongu, you have the freedom to learn new things. You can learn about both software, the ones in your curriculum and not.
All the professors are knowledgeable and highly experienced. They are extremely cooperative as well.
You will socialize with lots of people through clubs, Entrepreneurship cells, organizing committees, etc.
You learn leadership, working with a team, organizing, conducting a function, etc.
These things are not offered in MEPCO.
In Kongu you can improve your communication and language skills.

Kongu, unlike other colleges, keeps you updated every day. Even some of the top recruiting companies take part in their placement program, recruiting many students.

Therefore, if you want to build yourself up as an individual and also excel in your career opt for Kongu Engineering College.

Can you rate Kongu Engineering College with Sri Krishna College of Technology Kovaipudur?

Nalini Ranjan,

02 Nov 21

Both the colleges are equally good. Though it can be compared on the basis of the following factors:

Location: Kongu College is in Erode and Krishna College is in Coimbatore. So, location matters a lot while choosing a college. In this case, the former is better.
Strength: Krishna College has low student strength and fewer departments compared to Kongu College. During placement, you get fewer competitors.
Staff: Kongu College has better and experienced staff members than Krishna college. The staff of Krishna college though freshers are known to be very cooperative.
Lab Facilities: Kongu College offers better lab facilities compared to Krishna College.
College Fee: Krishna College is a bit costlier than Kongu. Krishna College doesn't have any scholarship scheme for toppers, unlike Kongu.
Hostel: In Krishna, you have to pay nearly 85,000 for a hostel. But In Kongu it is 55,000 to 60,000. But when quality and facilities are considered Krishna definitely wins.

Krishna is known for having good placements compared to Kongu. Also, the overall environment at Kongu College is very strict, whereas Krishna College shows leniency towards their students.

Yes, Kongu Engineering College is best for EEE, and faculties are well stuffed to mentor throughout Engineering.

Most probably on the core side, you will be getting an opportunity for some good companies like Robert Bosch, Vedanta resources, Soliton solutions, and some small scale companies.

On the other hand, you will get opportunities from IT firms like Accenture, Zoho, Wipro, Infosys, Harman, Cognizant, etc. But keep in mind that if you are dreaming of joining a core company then you have to be very much strong in your EEE subjects both theoretically and practically.

One of my friends is an alumnus of Kongu Engineering College. In my friend’s batch, only 5 students got placed in core companies out of 100+ eligible students. Others including him got placed in the IT sector.
