Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering B.Tech Review By Aghav Aditya

So basically, the college is known for its placement record. Recently, our college got about 1000 students placed in different companies with the highest packages of 63 LPA. The college is best for students who might have not been able to crack IIT or NITs but wanted to be placed in the best companies with their sincere efforts.

I am student of Civil Engineering which is right now the "Not So" relevant branch for many students in this AI led job market. But still our college makes sure that we are taught all the industry required skills and they try to organize programs and seminars apart from academics which help students to regularly keep up with requirements of the recruiters.

The faculties are great in terms of teaching and assistance in other co-curricular activities. Many of our faculties are Ph.D holders or are pursuing them. While teaching their subjects they also explain us about the future scope of our industry and the skills we will require to sustain in it. It's all upon the students to explore their potential.

Right now, I am in my third year of Civil Engineering, and it is the least favored branch in terms of placements in IT industries. But I've heard from our seniors that the department and placement cell of our college still tries to bring placements for students of our branch who are interested in getting jobs. This year, the highest package in Civil Engineering was about 6 LPA in the core companies which is still great compared to the other branch’s average packages.

Yes, we have hostel facilities for students’ right from first year of college to the last year. The hostel facilities are great and the hostel is right in the campus which is just away by a walking distance. The hostel facilities are available for both boys and girls. The interesting thing is that the hostel facilities in next years of college will be provided upon CGPA basis. So students with less CGPA and backlogs will not be allowed in the hostel and the cutoff goes on increasing until 4th year.

The college infrastructure is good. All the classrooms are equipped with projectors and computers for teaching purpose. College has 2 lawns for sports activities and a newly built badminton court. Also it has about 3 seminar halls for conducting seminars and other events.

The campus life is great as from the first year itself students are indulged in various activities and events which help them to meet new people and collaborate with others. For example, I am a Civil Engineering student, still I made whole bunch of friends from other branches in the first year. We also have many cultural and other events like Bollywood Days, annual event called Sthapatya, and more. Every branch has their own student’s organisation that organises events in the even semester, so it is full of events and life.
