From mentoring me to win the "National Award" to become a Gold Medalist at State Level Research Convention, going beyond the typical working hours and guiding me throughout even if it's 2 AM. The whole department has been very supportive of whatever I wanted to pursue and achieve and I'm very thankful to every faculty, lab staff and especially HOD ma'am as well as Principal Sir and the Institute for giving me the opportunity and shaping me to be a better engineer and learn something everyday, every moment.

WHY KJSIEIT better than others ?

Overall: Myself Ritesh Sandbhor student of KJSIEIT IT Department Final year. Kjsieit has a nice campus full of greenery and a cheerful environment. To get here there are two options either from Sion or Chunabatti. From Chunabatti it is a 10-minute walk whereas from Sion it is a bit far, you can take a rickshaw or walk for 20 minutes. The best option is Chunabatti. Talking about academics, all teachers have highly qualified most of them to have a PHD and they are very down to earth and we can approach them anytime. They will always welcome us and clear our doubts. Also, the placements are quite good. If u have a decent pointer u can easily get placed. Accenture is the mass recruiter. Many other companies like LTI, Infosys, TCS. Also, various communication companies like Reliance Jio and Vodafone also hire here. So if u are decent with ur studies placement won't be an issue. Overall it's a great college with more future opportunities.
