The verdict
Worth considering
At ₹6 lakhs total, this is a budget-friendly private B.Tech ME option in a major metro. The 2025 batch saw 70% placements with a ₹3.5 LPA average — decent, but not life-changing ROI if you're relying on a heavy loan. The curriculum is practically aligned (CAD/CAM, Robotics, Automotive), and recruiters span both core (L&T, Ashok Leyland) and IT (TCS, Infosys). It's a solid, realistic pick if you want an engineering degree in Chennai without a crazy fee tag, but keep salary expectations grounded.
