Later talking to reporters, Mr Pachamuthu said it was a proud
moment for the college for being accredited by the TCS. ''This
accreditation has put the college in the elite level as leading
institutions like Anna University and IIT have also been accredited
by the TCS.'' Of the 268 engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu,
74 were accredited by the TCS, of which 16 colleges were selected
by the company for the awards. Easwari Engineering College was
inducted only last year.

evolved by the TCS for the awards. Dr Muthukrishnan said the
main aim of the award was to promote the spirit of competition
among the student community, as part of the Academic Interface

every year. From 11 colleges, the TCS has added five more last
year with Easwari Engineering College being one of them. - Bureau
