An honest feedback of a second year student
Likes
- The way of teaching is very comfortable for me.
- Main teaching method is through ppt which helps very much in understanding concepts.
- The college makes us to attend workshops, webinars, hackathons, internships, etc
Dislikes
- The infrastructure of the main building is very poor. The building is very old and definitely needs renovation
- The chemistry lab is very old and the apparatus are in very poor condition
- There are only single seater chairs in the college. It is very uncomfortable to sit and to take notes. Normal benches would've been better
Remarks :
I cleared JEE Mains (86 percentile) and waited for JoSAA counselling. I didn't apply for many NITs and so didn't get admission in the selected NITs. I took repeaters course for JEE Advanced but got seat in this college through TNEA counselling. So I joined here as I wanted to study Chemical Engineering. My cutoff was 85.5
Course Curriculum Overview :
I didn't know about the curriculum at the time of admission. As a chemical engineer, we need knowledge on electrical devices and machines, biology, basic chemistry and physics, instrumentation, equipments in chemical process industries, ideas on process calculations, mathematics, C programming(for MATLAB), AutoCAD(designing), Aspen Plus, etc.... and the curriculum focuses on those things. Frequency of the exam is moderate. We have a lot of time to stduy and learn new concepts. The timings of internal exams are 2.5 hrs and end semester exams are 3hrs. The exams seems to be hard. It requires the student to apply every knowledge on the concept to answer the qns.
Internships Opportunities :
I do not know anything about companies offering internships. I've heard that seniors would attend internships in companies around their place of living. Seniors would complete their projects in companies or esteemed institutions like NITs or IITs.
Placement Experience :
The students are eligible for campus placements from 3rd year in the month of October. For chemical engineering, Asian paints, PETRONAS are some companies I remember. Last year 12companies visited and 20offers were made. Highest package: 12LPA and Average package: 6LPA. Students with no standing arrears are mandatory for placements and some companies want candidates with no history of arrears. Percentage of students getting placed is around 15%. I currently do not have any plans
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
I'm currently in the second year. The year-wise fees I paid in my first year was Rs.27900, and the second year is Rs.27000. I got admission in this college through TNEA counselling (merit seat - OBC). Tuition fees-4000,Admission fees-10,Special fees-1500,Development fees-3000,Caution deposit fees-500,University fees-1850,Administration fee-2000,Marksheet verification fee-50,(YRC,NSS)-40,Accreditation incentive-2850,Association fee-700,IDcard-300,Library fee- 800,Off-college hour services-5500,soft skill training-2500,students safety insurance scheme-300,university affiliation and augmentation fee-2000. Frnd1 who got merit seat through management paid an extra donation of Rs.7L Frnd2 through counselling(SS seat) pays around Rs.80k per year Frnd3 got management seat paying Rs.16L donation + Rs.80k per year Frnd4 is a first graduate in his family has no tuition fee(4000rs less) Frnd5 got 7.5% reservation-tamil medium Scholarships available. Join only merit seat is offered.
Campus Life :
Nakshtra - an event organised especially for 1st year students was conducted on May 9 and 10. A Hackathon(ChemEHack) is to be organised August 30. Most of the events will be conducted during the even semesters. There are enough books for us students to refer and learn. Students can access library till 7pm on working days with their ID card. Sports and extracurricular activities are considered as one credit mandatory courses. Many social groups and clubs are existing here. Eg: Dramatix club, Martial arts club, Rotaract club, NSS, Music club, etc
Faculty :
Faculty to student ratio would be approx 1:6 Most of the faculties are easy to approach in case of academics and career guidance. I don't have a favorite faculty as it may change with time. Most faculties are friendly. I like all faculties I've met. For a semester, there are two mid semester exams (internals) and an end semester exam. For lab sessions, 2 CAT exams. 70% of our class opted for their parents' sake. They didn't want to study this course, and they are uninterested in the subjects. 60% of our class has arrears. The course curriculum (2023 regulation) is very relevant to our course compared to the previous years

Overall my college guide
Course Curriculum Overview :
How do you perceive a good curriculum? Do you think your curriculum is good? Why or why not? Curriculum is essential to guide teachers in what to teach, how much depth of knowledge is needed for that grade, and a a timeline to follow so the year will be completed. Curriculum needs to focus on what you can do with information rather than the information itself. I wouldn’t eliminate content, without background we cannot form good, rational, and educated conclusions. We are still giving timed tests in math facts! I know that’s traditional, but it just isn’t as important. My era had no calculators and we needed to be proficient at paper and pencil solutions, but now, perfect calculations are available to everyone. We should focus on what kinds of problems can be solved with mathematics. Spelling is equally less important. Vocabulary should be stressed. My sister years ago was taking a test for a personal assistant position where she was asked to type a large number of words per minute err
