The rapid advancement of technology in recent years has become essential in many domains, particularly higher education. This research discusses the availability of resources and the use of social networking sites (SNS) in Coimbatore zone engineering education. These days, students and the younger generation use social networking sites as one of the most efficient ways to talk to their peers about their educational needs. In order to share knowledge and information with teachers and students, the majority of engineering institutions have established a special group on social networking sites. Multimedia systems are used in the teaching process to convey information. The use of various SNS by engineering colleges for their educational method has been analyzed.
