Remarks :
I got admission to RVCE through the Karnataka common entrance test (KCET). I had a rank of 225 and during counseling, I opted for Aerospace engineering in RV. After the counseling results are announced, one has to accept (or reject and go to the next round) the seat and pay the government fees to the given bank account number. After that, one must visit the college with 4 copies of all the mentioned documents and might need to carry a DD of the specified amount. The cut-off varies according to the branch and categories. The aerospace department has a mediocre cut-off for CET.
Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose this course because I am passionate about it. The faculty-student ratio is quite good (66:6) as every course has different faculties. There are also a few visiting professors and inter-departmental course-handling professors. The faculties are well qualified and the teaching method is neat with a proper balance of theory classes, lab (practicals), and Experiential learning projects. There will be internals almost every month and the tests are quite interesting with application-level and theory-level questions. If one invests a good amount of time in academics, it'll be easy to score.
Internships Opportunities :
The college provides a 2-3 month window for internships after the 3rd year and many companies visit to take interviews and provide internships. For example, Boeing hires interns from the aerospace and the mechanical department with a stipend of 30000 per month. There are also many unpaid internship opportunities available for students from the 3rd semester itself.
Placement Experience :
Students become eligible for campus placements from the 3rd year. In the aerospace department, companies like Boeing and Airbus visit, and an average of 9-10 LPA offers are made. The highest offer in the Aerospace department according to my knowledge is 14LPA. Almost every student gets placed in RV, but students in the Aerospace branch mostly opt for higher studies. I too plan on doing higher studies in a good college after BE.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The fees remain almost constant throughout the 4 years of engineering. The hike or drop in fees is almost insignificant. There are no particular scholarships awarded by the college as such (at least to my knowledge ), but the college does support and provide the required documents for applying for scholarships elsewhere. Campus jobs are not something the college provides, at least to BE students.
Campus Life :
The most annual fest is 8th Mile which happens around June. The best tech fest is conducted by the Aerospace department in association with AeSI called "Aeromania" which is a 3-day aero-technical fest in which students from colleges throughout Bangalore participate. The library is very huge and one can find almost any book needed easily with the smart search system. Classrooms are spacious with many benches, projectors, lighting, and fans. The encouragement of sports and extracurricular activities meets every student's expectations. Cricket, volleyball, baseball, basketball, badminton, tennis, archery, etc. Many cultural clubs (Rotaract, Raag, Aalap, footprints, etc) and technical clubs (Antariksh, Ashwa, Jatayu, Vyoma, Helios, etc) are always active.
