MY JOURNEY IN IIT MADRAS

Course curriculum is quite good. We have relevant courses those are related to our courses . Many of my mentors who helped me to crack JEE suggested me this course . Mechanical engineering is all rounded course . We can go to any sector from this so job opportunities are more. In few courses they teach us about the how machines work and how the things are really made. These are very useful courses in further academic pursuits. There should be improvement in courses of earlier semesters like some are not so relevant. Teachers should give more time in class and in students We have our semester exams in 3 steps Quiz 1 , Quiz 2 and then end semester exam . So exams are not hectic if a guy regurly attend classes and do studies on daily basis .

We have internships facilities in our campus .
