Remarks :
I had taken a KCET entrance exam which had of cutoff ranking of 2000 for qualifying in pes electricity campus for computer science engineering. The admission process requires you to show your kcet marks sheet which needs to be asserted along with your 10th and 12th-grade mark sheet. Once the required documents along with passport photos are submitted I had to pay a fee of 1,10,000 in the form of a demand draft to the admission office. Once done they assigned me a unique roll number and some goodies. Later I had to collect my id card on the day PES university starts. Improvement that can be done is to pay fees via online neft (which has been implemented now).
Course Curriculum Overview :
I love computer coding so I went towards the domain of computer science engineering. There is sufficient faculty to handle around 1k students each year. It would be better if more teachers are present. Some teachers have a qualified doctorate and some teachers are very good in the subject they teach. There are few teachers whose teaching is the worst. I had to learn some subjects on my own. There is 5 internals for each unit which is MCQ based and trust me that is not a good way to conduct exams as we face a problem during our final which is theory-based. With the burden of projects for every subject, it is a lot to handle for a student. The difficulty of passing is medium as it is a relative grading based on the highest marks scored.
Internships Opportunities :
Various companies like Walmart, American express, fractal analytics, Goldmann Sachs, and morgan Stanley come for internships ranging from 50k to 1lakh per month for roles like software engineer, technology analyst, application developer etc.
Placement Experience :
Students in the final year are eligible for internships and campus placement. Students in the third and second years are eligible for only internships. Various companies like Infosys, cisco, morgan Stanley, Goldmann Sachs, Samsung and around 200+ companies come to campus for placements. The highest package that has come in my batch was around 30lpa and the average package of 9lpa. Around 90+% students are into some or the other companies. My plans after getting a degree are to have workable experience at it companies and then pursue a master's.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
Fees are a bit high for students who don't come via kcet. For kcet people, it is around 1,10,000 rupees which include 48,000 for university infrastructure (actually the PES university looks good). Apart from that you do get three types of scholarships i.e 1. CNRao Scholarship(25% of your fees)- Top 20% of students in terms of GPA (every semester) 2. MRD Scholarship(20% of your fees)- Students achieving 8.5 + cgpa per semester. I have mrd scholarship for a few semesters and remaining semester I didn't receive it because of covid it was removed. My dad had sufficient money to pay for my college so there was no problem with financial assistance. I got a job at Unbxd via campus placement offering me a stipend of a 15lpa package.
Campus Life :
Life on campus is good. There are various circular activities like hackathons, quiz maina etc. It will be more fun if you are at our campus (they have lot more events than ec campus). We have an annual fest held during the month of October-November. There are a sufficient number of books at the library for reference and you get access to the digital library (containing books, research papers, and previous years' qps for every course) if you are a PES university student. Every classroom had a large tv to project slides presented by the professor and large blackboards. It has also sufficient benches (three students per bench can suffice the entire strength of the classroom). It has many cupboards for you to keep some extra accessories (not your college bags). There are a lot of sports activities going on every semester like table tennis, cricket(a large cricket ground), football, volleyball, badminton court etc. There are a lot of social groups run by students you can check the pes university link for more details.
