College of Engineering, Guindy (CEG), Anna University Campus
Location:
CEG is located in Guindy campus of Anna University. Anna University is well located when commuting is considered. There are many buses connecting Guindy to many other parts of the city. The campus has many other education governing bodies as its neighbours. Nearest railway station is Guindy but not many use it.
Infrastructure:
Anna University campus is huge and beautiful. The campus is well maintained with aesthetic beauty added by the lawns. There is a lot of open space in the campus which is marked with students almost all the time of the day.
The college labs are not the best and don’t live up to the Anna University brand. The equipment doesn’t work many times. The library is good with all the floors having AC. Book renewal process is easy and much appreciated by students.
University is Wi-Fi enabled including the hostels. Hostels are not very much liked by the students. Hostel charges are Rs 15,000 per semester including the mess charges.
Fees:
Rs 15,000 per year
Faculty:
Students have no complains about the faculty. They are very well experienced and highly qualified. The EEE faculty is said to be the best. Core branches have a better faculty compared to the newer branches. Many of the faculty members are alumni of the institute itself.
Although being so qualified, the professors are approachable and students do go to them with their doubts.
Attendance and Discipline:
Attendance is very strict. Students are expected to maintain 75% and when they say this they mean it. The defaulters are not allowed to take the exams. 2 days in a week students have labs where they are expected to wear only formals. ID has to be worn all the time.
Crowd:
Majority of the students are from Tamil Nadu, of which students from Chennai form a majority. Surprisingly, girls outnumber the boys. Students don’t have a problem getting along; they do have a good junior senior interaction. Although the college gets the top scorers of the state, they are not bookworms. They are into other extra-curricular activities.
Canteen:
Anna university campus has 3 canteens. Students usually go to the CEG one which is spacious and the food is good. A variety of juices are available which are hot favourites among the students.
Festivals:
There are many festivals happening on the campus. The intra-college cultural festival is called Agni, whereas Techofes is the inter-college festival. Each department conducts its own symposium.
Placements:
Great placements. CEG is one of the few engineering colleges in Chennai who could boast of 100% placements. Most of the students go for IT companies. Mining branch has only core companies coming and has great placements.
Some of the renowned companies visiting the campus are Microsoft, Qualcomm, Amazon and Caterpillar. Microsoft is said to have offered 12 LPA.
