Good placements but expensive.

Admission:

I had taken the entrance exam of gitam which is known as the GAT exam. I secured a rank of 1111 for which I got a scholarship of 25%. There are even 100%, 75%, and 25% scholarships for the students who secured better ranks. The entrance exam was written in online mode. There are some improvements in the entrance exam. Now the exam is conducted offline. The application when I applied was 2,500.

Course Curriculum Overview:

As I am interested in AI & ML I have chosen this course. The course structure is quite good and there may be a slight difference in course structure compared to general CSE. The faculty is quite good. They are well qualified and well trained. Boys are more in ratio than girls. The exams are conducted frequently and the difficulty of the exam is moderate.

All about my university

I have already into gitam University by writing a gitam entrance exam which is GAT. Gitam has a website called glearn, in that website we can view the application form, fees, dates, etc. And yes I have a reservation benefit as I got a rank of 5,000 I got a good seat in the gitam University entrance exam, I feel it would be better making every to understand the admission process because there may be people who are uneducated

I choose b tech because it is very interesting to me, and the faculty at gitam University are great, they are so patient with the student and children even listen to them, my class consists of around 58 students in the class which was a great number, And teaching method in gitam University is great, they teach very well, and they explain each and everything until the student gets it. The teachers were great and their teaching too and it is likely to pass

List of companies offered in the university.

I didn't take any entrance exams. The application process is online and offline. You would need all original certificates at the time of admission for verification, TC is obviously mandatory. Take photos of any application process documents provided by the person handling your admission. Later you need to enroll in classes corresponding to your degree, it's an online process, and getting your learning portal access, can be a real pain most of the time, you may need to visit a few offices after your admission.

The course curriculum is questionable, even after getting into 3rd year 2nd sem, you may have to study for subjects that won't interest you. Skilled faculties are few, and even if they know their subject really well, the way they teach is questionable.
