I have spent 2 years in this institute and I can say that these were the most fruitful years of my carrier. Here we can explore our ideas and bring them to innovation with the help of facilities like Research Laboratories, Innovation Centre. It has improved my technical as well as managerial skills and helped me to get placed in MNC."

My two years in PCCOE were transformative. PCCOE has opened my eyes to the limitless educational possibilities and helped me to build a winning attitude.”

I will treasure the memories of my time in P.C.C.O.E forever. I am graced with most helping teachers who have transformed my mind towards research and developed never say die attitude.

What our students say

Pursuing a master's degree from a private college is always like keeping one's career at stake. Now, when I see those two years of my post-graduation study in PCCoE. In these two years, I worked on research projects and also on TIFAC- a DST project as well. TIFAC helped me to provide solution for MSME companies which in future help them to increase their work efficiency. College as a whole improved academic knowledge and motivated me to work for society. In PCCoE, I also got groomed as a person with the help of one of the best teachers. The college life was a memorable experience and combination of study, fun, knowledge and an attitude towards research.

PCCoE has provided me the best of education throughout my PG course. Faculties are dedicated to the improvement of the quality of the students which is quite lacking in many institutes. I had the most memorable days in my life which I will cherish forever.

What our students say…

• PCCOE is one of the best engineering colleges in Maharashtra. I would rate this college next to IITs.

• Faculty: The professors here have expertise and are proficient in their field. They make sure that every student has understood the subject. Professors here do not believe on spoon-feeding; on the contrary they believe in generating thirst for knowledge. Regular assignments, open-book tests, tutorials, etc. (most of them need to be solved by applying our own mind i.e., copy paste doesn’t work all the time) are a common practice here. Seminar and project assessments are tough which ensure the candidness of the work done by the students.

• Infrastructure: Infrastructure and labs are good and well-maintained. A computer lab is kept open 24x7 for students doing research. Canteen facilities are also commendable.

• I cherish the moments at PCCOE, especially with the Professors. The project I did here as a part of curriculum was first-of-its-kind in University. It helped me develop a decent research perspective. I can handle critical situations in my organization serenely; play a team-player in the team, etc. This was possible because of the good and holistic education imparted at PCCOE.
