Acharya Institute of Technology provides good placements within the ECE department. Mostly the IT companies visit very often and recruit ECE students only. Around 90 - 95% of the eligible students get placed. And many students get off-campus placements too.

Placement Stats - ECE (2021):

Students have a relatively higher chance of getting placed if their aggregate score is maintained above 60% and they have good knowledge and communication skills. Since multiple companies visit the college during recruitment drives, all students have to do is appear for these campus interviews and perform exceedingly well by giving it their best shot.

The institute observes a good blend of ECE core companies as well as IT companies, for students who may be interested in getting into the software sector.

Apart from this, your skills, individual performance in interviews, and overall CGPA will determine the results of your placements at Acharya Institute of Technology within the ECE branch.

From the given list of institutions, NITTE Meenakshi is highly recommended over the rest of the institutes.

Following are some reasons why you should choose NITTE Meenakshi.

• It has a great campus with decent placement records, an excellent crowd, and above-average faculty.
• The fact that it is an autonomous institution is like a cherry on the cake as the students don't have to face problems faced by VTU students. Being an autonomous university, it offers a great curriculum, student diversity, and modern infrastructure. 
• The only con is the location which is away from the city, but there is good connectivity to the college.

Given below is a brief overview of the five institutes. 

So, on the basis of the above-highlighted information, it is safe to say NITTE Meenakshi is a better alternative.

Acharya Institute of Technology is an average college. The student population on campus is fantastic and robust. The students are the university's lifeline. It's them who will make Acharya livable. Without the crowd, it would have been a dull place. It conducts an international festival, which is once again organized by the students.

The table given below shows a brief overview of the institute:

Infrastructure:

• Acharya Institute is renowned for its green environment and infrastructure and this is what makes it fresh for students. 
• The rooms of the hostel are good but a bit more expensive. It would be advised to stay in PGs located outside the campus. 
• Infrastructure is good, be it sports, classrooms, and dedicated laboratories. But for a college at this level, the library is too small with a lesser collection of books and reading materials. 

Faculty: Teachers here are very helpful and willing to assist you in your academic and personal problems.

The overall institute is not bad, but the exams are entirely based and studied for the semester assessments and internals. It is far less helpful if you intend to import anything for your profession. Exposure is even smaller and the faculty has more practical expertise than Theoretical Knowledge.

Hope the details discussed above would help the students to acknowledge the college.

This information is for AIT and institutes that are similar in ranking to AIT. However, the faculty and placements of the institute cannot be compared to others like RV or MSRIT.

A friend of mine stayed at the HKG Hall of Residence at Acharya Institute. Some of the important aspects of the hostel life at Acharya Institute according to his experience are as follows. 

• The double sharing hostel rooms are priced at INR 1.1 and INR 1.47 Lakh per annum respectively.
• The rooms are spacious and come with attached bedding, storage facilities, and lights. 
• The quality of food available in the hostel mess can be better. 
• In some cases, the food items either get over within 15 to 20 minutes of being served, and at other times a huge quantity of food gets wasted.
• However, not everyone comes here for wasting food and recouping money thereafter.
• The majority of the occupiers of the hostel are students of 1st year, whereas most of these students move out of the hostels into individual accommodations or PG room services once they are through 2nd year.
• The hostel environment, room-mates, and fellow students will have a direct impact on your study and personal experience.
• It is essential to learn to develop your own skills while living in the hostel and studying at the institute in order to ensure progress.

However, considering all the above factors, you should make a firm decision while choosing the hostels. As your main aim is to study & develop new learning skills for career growth while living in the hostel and wasting your money should not be your priority.
