 “When I decided to join for M.Tech, many colleges were in my mind and after some deep thought process, I decided to join in Amrita. Right now, at this moment, I completely realize that, it was the best decision. I’m pursuing my M.Tech course here at Amrita with a big smile and a great sense of accomplishment. While joining for masters, I had two major things in my mind. First one – To get in- depth knowledge in my domain or the subject and Secondly, to get a good placement in a core company. In Amrita, these two are provided at its best. Due to Covid Pandemic, our first two semester classes were online mode, but the quality and efficiency of those virtual classes were marvelous. Here in Amrita, We are getting high class training in major hurdles of a placement program such as Interview skills, Aptitude, Group Discussion and Resume building. Our CIR departments contacts are so vast such that all reputed core companies are coming here for placement. Getting a good placement from campus is really a big achievement since the competition is very high at outside market. We can chase our dreams and fulfil them here at Amrita with great satisfaction”

I have done both my UG and PG at Amrita School of Engineering – Coimbatore campus. The lab sessions were very tough and demanding that I learnt my basics from these lab sessions. I was also given a free hand to try mini projects on my own and the professors and lab assistants were equally encouraging. Added advantages being the serene campus and friendly behaviour of the professors, I am very happy that I chose Amrita for my professional studies.
