    College Infrastructure

    We have a decent library. Students need to get permission from the HOD to access journals and papers. We have a recording of lectures, so we can rewatch them later, but no one uses it. We have a lot of clubs ranging from photography to entrepreneurship.

    Academics

    The faculty is good and well-graduated from different universities. Some are average. They change when we complain about them. They do fastly by management. They teach in English and it is very good. There are campus recruitment classes which are very helpful for students.

    Placements

    Placements in our college are very nice. During the recession period, REC provided many placements for students. Average students can get placements easily here. Students who are toppers in their class get placed at Google, Amazon, etc. The university has collaborations with numerous national and international companies.

    College Infrastructure

    We have open Wi-Fi all around the campus and many labs for all departments. The hostel food quality and room are pretty average. Classrooms and labs are good enough. They don't give much importance to sports, but they give importance to events, symposiums, and hackathons.

    Academics

    Yes, teachers are very friendly, not that strict. We have 3 CAT exams each month for 75 marks and a semester exam for 100 marks. Exams and question papers are not that tough; we can clear them easily. The pass percentage is 50, which is pretty high, but you can score easily. The curriculum actually meets industry needs, and B. Tech CSBS is one of the best syllabi because it was designed by TCS. So yes, you can join REC

    Placements

    Almost 80% of them got placed in the 7th semester. The eligibility criteria to attend placements are no standing arrears and a CGPA > 7. In the 6th semester, placements will start. Top MNC companies like TCS, CTS, ACCENTURE, AMAZON, GOOGLE, and BNY MELLON came for recruitment. The highest package offered was 28 LPA, and the lowest was 3.5 LPA.

    My experience at Rajalakshmi Engineering College So Far

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    From good facilities like classrooms and well-equipped labs, learning spaces such as the library and student lounges, every aspect contributes to academic growth and collaboration. The extensive amenities including sports fields ensures holistic development. Overall, the college has been a mark of good infrastructure and an ideal environment for academic sucess and personal growth.

    Academics

    Academics wise, the college promotes diligent learning and widening your thinking capacity. It promotes everyday applications of theoretical knowledge. Although, the slight overload of records and assignments are to be seen, that's a hard bullet to dodge as engineering students everywhere have to deal with this problem. Otherwise, academics is excellent at REC.

    Placements

    A good percent of students have been placed in core companies and other companies from past data with a good package and scope. Although I cannot share my personal experience due to lack of it thereof in this matter.

    Value for Money

    There has been a huge value for money. Since I joined REC, my interest in the field has grown and there have been many opportunities to widen my knowledge. Highly recommended among engineering colleges.

    Campus Life

    The campus life is hectic, and there might be a lot of assignments, records, internal exams dumped on you. But with the right set of friends and a support group, college life at REC should be exactly as you dreamed for watching all the films growing up.
