Around INR 1 lakh 20 thousand. 50-60 people in a batch, Loans art not needed. If there is a need, there are many banks which offer education loans.

No internships yet. IT, Marketing, finance, and sales company hire from our college. The average salary is INR 600000 lakhs per annum. 60% placements in batch. (Others pursue higher studies). Best alumni network.

I took admission in the year 2015 and during my time there was minority quota. I had 70 percentile. The cutoff was around 50-60 for the minority. For general cutoff was 92. I took JEE Mains. And HSC board exams.

There are a lot of sports committee, cultural committee, media, publicity etc Main festival is Ganpati. The life is bearable in this college, if not the worst.

There are no hostels nearby. Although there are rented rooms available. Rent is around 10k for 1bhk. Food in the college is really nice, but a little costly.

The college runs from 9 am to 5.30 pm Monday to Friday, timings and days are subjected to changes. The professors are not up to the mark. The students have to study on their own before the exams.

The fees are ₹1,17,000 approx per year. EBC, SC, ST, Students are awarded scholarships.

The placement for mechanical is very poor, as compared to PPT, CE, EXTC, IT. College is new for Mechanical Engg.

The admission procedure was CAP round and Institute quota and minority. The entrance examinations were JEE MAINS and CET. The cutoff for mechanical engineering is close to 93 percentile.

There are lots of student societies active in our college like EDC, SAE, IETE, CSI etc. There are literature clubs, music clubs, theatre, dance etc. There are 2 main fests that happen once every academic year cognition (tech fest) and TML (cultural fest). Life in college is pretty chilled and fun

There is one hostel inside the campus and it's not that huge and generally, no one stays at the hostel as all the students come from nearby areas. Pg options vary and so does the price. There are hostels in the vicinity of college too. The food at the canteen is pure veg and on an average will cost you INR 50 to 70. Classrooms are big and can seat 80 students comfortably. No wifi for students. Labs are resourceful and the library has an abundance of books of every branch and year.

The Daily routine is pretty well organized and it varies from year to year. Teaching is really good and the staff encourages participation in extracurricular activities. Overall experience is pretty great

INR 1lakh to INR 1.2 lakhs per annum or INR 10,000 or INR 20,000 per annum depending on your caste and other factors. Scholarships are often awarded to students with low income based on merit. Loans may be needed depending on the financial situation of the student. The loan amount is easy to get from any bank.

No internships inside the college. IT and CS have the highest placement. Salary varies according to the branch and the CGPA. For mechanical the salary package averages between 2 lakhs to 3 lakhs per annum. In every branch out of the no. of people sitting for placement more than 60% get placed.

The Institution is located in the midst of an educational hub in Navi Mumbai. It is situated in congenial environment over a 6-acre plot of land at Nerul, providing an ideal setting for academic pursuits.

Fees:

Rs. 90,560/year

Faculty:

SIES has good faculty. Students understand what they are taught.

Very helpful as well (except some teachers). The faculty in a short span has raised the academic level of the college to be a leader among the similar institutions in Navi Mumbai and is about to catch up with the most leading engineering colleges of the University of Mumbai.

Attendance:

Minimum requirement of  75% has to be fulfilled. Very strict. If the requirement is not fulfilled then papers are to be solved, the number of papers and their length being proportional to the lack of attendance.

Crowd:

A mix of crowd (majority is South Indian, but doesn’t matter).

You’ll find both kinds of people here fun-loving and books-crazy. A very energetic crowd makes the college environment vibrant and active.

Canteen:

SIES has a good canteen. Enough room and nice food. The South Indian is (obviously) really good, but even the 'lunch' is quite tasty.

The downside of the canteen is that it’s common for all the other coursers like MBA, BSc, Commerce, 11^th and 12^th.

Hangouts:

On Campus: Auditorium/Amphitheatre, around the canteen

Off Campus: Malls, some Restaurants

You may find good places in Vashi which is a little far from here.

Verdict:

Overall, a decent college with the only disadvantage for Mumbaikars being its location. A good one though for those who stay close from there or those who don't mind traveling.

Use of mobile phones is prohibited anywhere in the campus. And if you're caught with mobile in hand, then there's a fine of 5000Rs.
