Knowing that Kj Somaiya is one of the greatest colleges in mumbai. I live nearby in Navi Mumbai. I didn't want to leave my family and friends yet. So as per my cut-off and my marks I had many options to choose from but this college had my heart since childhood as if I have manifested it. The college is good, faculty is good, the campus is the best part and placements are also more than any other engineering college in my cut-off. The college has a huge fest. I must say my college life is wonderful here. I had admission here through Pera cet where I scored 91%ile They accept exams matchet, jee, sat, per cent. The only syllabus is What You Prepare for Jee that's it.
Course curriculum is best I must say. They provide us large number of options to choose from not only in the IT field but also in other fields like mech aerospace etc. They also offer exposure course that are related to our hobby almost 70 exposure courses to choose from. Faculties are very well trained and friendly. They teach us everything theoretically and lab experience too. Term exams are very easy to pass because they offer us unit test+term exams for passing and it is also relative grading which brings students at ease and concentrate on other things as well and not be a book worm. Ik the college fees are high but they provide the quality here. I have got a financial aid scholarship. In which I got 30% off on total college fees.
I am in 1st year yet so I don't know about jobs and placements but yes about intership we have an internship cell as the campus runs an startup school. We have a lot of opportunities for internship. Most people get placed later in the intership company only. Highest salary is CTC 52Lpa and average is 7-9Lpa. We have a choice to either sit for placements or complete our further studies in abroad through exchange program From the last 2 years, 100% of students who sat for placements got into placements. Also, the eligibility criteria is to earn 10 credits throughout the 4 years to sit for placements. 1 credit means 40hrs of work in college campus teams or internships. My plans right now are to sit for placements and get job asap.
As I live nearby I don't need a PG or hostel but I have many friends who live in a hostel inside the campus. The campus is HUGE. Such big place in Mumbai is not possible. We have lots of fest such as tech fest, sports fest and the greatest cultural fest. Tech fest is the first fest Sports fest comes after And cultural fest is the last fest College has 10 to 15 clubs 70+ exposure course and a separate sports complex for Som students. Libraries are the beauty of this college. We have 3 floor library itself in the engineering college only. 1st floor readding room 2nd-flo book issue 3rd-floor big library for study College has 5 canteens 2 mess and 2 different hostels. Mess food is best I personally when don't bring tiffin we have to pay 60 rs for 1 time unlimited food. We friends always love their chole bhature we go there every Friday just to have chole bhature. Mess food feels like home.
I haven't reached my placement stage yet but from what I have seen the college doesn't wait until the final year to start preparing students. We have coding sessions, skills building workshops and career guidance from the beginning. Seniors also share their experiences which gives us a better idea of what to expect. I feel the college is helping us build the right foundation for internships and placements. At the same time, I think getting a good job also depends on how much effort we put into improving our own skills. So far I feel I am on the right track
no placement data is present now but many of students are working on their own projects and few are cracked the internships and now currently serving their period on the companies and it's really great opportunities.
The college does have a placement cell. It provides some in campus placements . Rarely 2% students get in campus placements. Rest have to find jobs pn their own. You wi have to do alot of interships and gain practical skills to be placed
Diffrent companies have different criteria, limited companies comes in campus such as bootcoding Pvt.Ltd , and some small companies arrived. Highest package giving by companies is 4 LPA lowest package is 3LPA and average package is 2.5LPA. about 20% of students got placed. Searching a job after my course computation.
The faculty members are supporting but inexperienced the experienced professionals have left the college long time ago. This is one of the old colleges in Pune. The semesters are generally proactive extracurricular activities are less and are given not much priority .
There are the placements are done in the final year of college, You are eligible for the appear in the placements drive you have to score good scores in the semester exams. There are the lowest 3LPA and highest 6LPA packages are offered by the companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, BOAT, SBI , Ultra Tech, Mahindra, Capgemini etc. Students have to maintain their SGPA up to 8.0 CGPA.
engineering course curriculum is very old specially for university batch students my batch get admission in 2022 at that our college is not get autonomous status. passing semester exams is little hard in university compare to autonomous batch. faculties teachings methods are very old. And not practical learning provided.
there are lots of mnc company visted college every year, most of companies have there eligiblity criteria is 60% and above overall from 10th, the biggest tech companies like tcs, wipro, accenture, deloitte, infosys, the average package is around 3lpa, every year 50 to 70% students getting placed.
The placements are nice. Majorly Hafiz contractor firm take students. But a lot of firms do come fruit placement. Take interview and hire students. Last year a lot of students got placements based on their portfolios and skills And got salaries ranging from 2,50,000-6,00,000 Annually.
The placement and job opportunities in college is good the MOU's signed by company are good almost 40-50% of college gets placement remaining go for off campus placements there are companies like TCS , Accenture etc
