College Internship Opportunities :
While I'm still in my third year, I've heard that companies like Berger Paints come for placements in my department. SRM Chennai provides decent internship opportunities, especially for computer science students. It's a good starting point for gaining practical experience.
Course Information :
B.Tech Computer Science at SRM Chennai is pretty decent. The curriculum covers a lot, but some of us feel the teaching methods could be more engaging. There are a few standout faculty members who make the subjects super interesting, but overall, there's room to make it more effective and exciting.
Fee Structure :
The fees are a bit on the higher side, around 2.5 Lakhs per year just for tuition. During the pandemic, it felt like they could have reduced the fees since we weren't physically on campus. With reduced electricity usage and maintenance, a significant cost reduction should have been possible. They still charge hefty exam fees without providing basic supplies like pen and paper.
Faculty :
Some faculty members are really good and make the subject interesting. However, there is room for improvement in making the teaching more efficient and qualified. More qualified and engaging faculty could significantly enhance the academic experience.
Campus Details :
The campus is huge with great facilities like a theatre, sports complex, and a good food court. We have various labs and smart classes. Shuttle buses run every 10 minutes to the station, which is super convenient. However, AC classrooms are only available until the first year.
