Over the last 5 years, the college has trained around 560 students. Tiruttani's Dhanapal graduated from the college and is now placed in a well-established automobile company. "I took up Mechatronics because it teaches you everything. The course has taught me a lot about the industry and the people who work in the field, apart from the subjects. I will be working in the system evaluation department," he said.
Swetha from Chennai, one among the 7 girls who graduated said, "In a degree course, you learn more theory. I'll be joining a MNC in March," she said.
A non-semester courses in Mechanical Engineering and EEE will be stated by the college. A S Ponnusamy, correspondent of the college said, "In the semester pattern, students spend six additional months on industry training and hence have to lose one full year if they want to pursue higher studies. So, from next year we are starting non-semester courses. Students who have passed out from our college are all well-placed in TVS group or other leading companies."
