I have just completed my first year in Fr. Conceicao college of engineering Bandra, Mumbai in the mechanical engineering department. Due to fewer admissions in the branch, I got admitted to the college through the institute quota (NO ILLEGAL DONATIONS) only a 1500 rupees form was an extra cost for the institute quota. No group discussions were taken it was a very smooth and simple procedure.
I chose mechanical engineering because I am passionate about automobiles and machinery. About the faculty in Fr.crce, the professors are highly qualified and the teaching methods are great as most of them are experienced in teaching for 2 or more decades, the exams conducted are usually 2 unit tests a semester which consist mostly pics from MU end semester papers and MU end semester papers for the first year, But this year the college has achieved autonomy and the next batch will get the benefits of autonomy. The cost per year in this college is 1,75,576 rupees which is pretty reasonable and comparatively similar to every other good quality college in Mumbai. There were 2 scholarships provided by private banks and the govt ews and tfws seat facilities are also available.
No, I currently haven't but I was previously a member of the E-formula racing team internship and the team is very disciplined and well-working. However, the scope for internships is very high as there are a lot of clubs and college societies for different fields.
The employability is pretty good as the placements for our branch have always been at the top and verified companies recruit in the college. companies like Godrej and IBM have hired from our college.
College life is very luxurious as the crowd which mostly are admitted to the college are from posh Mumbai localities and the college being in Bandra, social clubs, cafes, and hanging spots are very close. We also have a lot of fests and the 3 main fests are Euphoria sports, crescendo (tech fest), and Euphoria (entertainment), held in march. we also have a good canteen with mostly non-veg food due to the catholic crowd and catholic culture in the college. We have a lot of college societies and clubs which are very helpful for technical knowledge and there's a wide variety of them.
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
