Remarks

Need improvement in many areas. Most positive thing is that their is freedom in college students are free to come and go. When comparing with other private college freedom is next level. Need improvement in canteen ( for past 4 year most common complaint). College Election is most stupid one.

Course Curriculum Overview

We were the first batch of Kerala technical University (KTU). Internal Mark and external marking scheme are very bad. Valuation is not done right when exam paper is given for revaluation by paying extra 500 grade will improve mostly. No mark is published only grade is available.

Placement Experience

Nope. Nothing as per my knowledge till now there is no sort of internship and placement happening in my college. In civil engineering and mechanical engineeringcampus placement zero. Coming to other branches it is about 10 percent.

College Events

1.5

College fest ,Onam celebration, independence day and republic day. This are sone of function celebrated in over college. From past 2 year college fest conducted as inter college fest. Fund for the program is collected from student. No backup from college officials. Holy unofficial celebration from students.

Fee Structure And Facilities

When I took admission the fee structure was expensive for management seat. Currently due to new University and less admission happening in our state due to new University schemes fess had reduced drastically.

Fees and Financial Aid

Scholarship is provided for top rank students and loan facility is available. Under students risk only. Some times fees reduction is available that is very rare case. According to over college they are getting more profit from school than college.

Campus Life

Games event is there. Their is a fun fact when I took admission they where building a basket ball court. And new building for school also stated same time. School infrastructure is completed still basketball court remain unfinished ( reason no budget)

Hostel Facilities

There is no hostel facility available in our colleage. They are spending more money in purchasing land but no hostel facility. Student from far away area take accommodation as paying guest near by homes etc.

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

No alumni network. No reunion also. Some people will be touch through social media like Facebook Whatsapp etc. Only unofficial get together from the students in some hotel etc. Some of the old boys are helping for getting job etc

Admission

Got call from different college after entrance exam. I got admission in management seat sice my entrance rank was low. Taking Admission is easy pay the full amount and seat is given. News about admission came in newspaper.

Faculty

My college is having 5 branch in engineering course. Some Faculty and students are not in same page. Some of them make student under ( he or she will have to repeat entire year with junior class). Fight between teacher and student is very common.

College was at a beautiful place. It was not a city but a beautiful place.
Hostel was great. I got many friends from there.
These are the only things that I can think of.

Dislikes

Teachers, they are horrible one one teacher named aparna was professional and ethical. My HOD was the worst.
Principal is the worst. She does not hear students side. She is money minded. I had a fee pending for not more than 2 week. When I went to her for signing my medical report she demanded that she will sign only after I paid that fee
The college does not encourage extra curricular activities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is the worst. Teachers rush through the portions so that they can finish at the earliest. It may be because the university has a unjustifiable timetable. There is very little practicals given. The ones that are given are just for namesake.

Decent infrastructure. hostel infrastructure is also clean and better than most colleges

Dislikes

Very poor campus life. No importance for cultural programmes and activities
Very poor and degrading environment for women. Faculties and other staff are very judgemental.
Very low packages for average students. Placement training is regularly being provided, but it is too hectic to be managed along with curriculum.

Placement Experience:

students become eligible for placements after sixth semester. Major companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, e.t.c are recruiters. about 5-10 students are recuited on average by these companies. highest package was offered by south indian bank in 2023 (10 LPA). average packges are around 2 to 3 LPA.

Likes

Our seniors passed out with flying colors joining different companies or starting their own. There's a good focus on peer learning and student communities which is pretty nice. Canteen food is decent and labs are great
Most people and professors are friendly and they encourage you to try out new things.

Dislikes

Hostel water , busses are pretty fast. Sometimes roads are a bitt rough

Course Curriculum Overview:

Course curriculum is under KTU syllubus do it's fine. There is a change in curriculum coming 2024 which i assume would make a lot of good changes. The curriculum gives you a head start For most of your work, you need to on your own but the faculty is there to help. The frequency of exams is weekly tests + monthly exams. Its not too difficult of an exam.

Review of TOC H institute of science and technology

Likes

I feel like staffs in my department are pretty good, atleast they fullfill their duties to cover the portions in right time
We have placements training, offered free of cost by college itself
Notes and necessary materials for studying are provided from college itself, and most teachers don't force on buying textbooks or other materials

Dislikes

College is located in aarakunnam, which is a bit remote area hence for various needs we often need to travel a few kilometres even for basic necessities
The road to collage entrance is a steep road, and currently it's under construction (it's been a yr)
Students are required to park their vehicles outside the college, as there is no parking facilities for students inside campus

Placement Experience:

Currently placements are bit low, due to inflation, but compared to other colleges like KMEA, etc we have better placements similar to Muthoot and all. We have placement training, and other supports which can help us crack aptitude exams and prepare for placements Almost 70-80% students are placed every year, with an avg package of 4LPA

Review about Toc H Institute of Science and Technology

Likes

When it comes to the campus life, I enjoyed all the 4 years
The infrastructure was okayish Could've improved.
The faculty was really friendly and I was able to approach them without any hesitation.

Dislikes

The road from the junction to the college is not at all maintained. Students coming up the hill find it very difficult to reach college
The bus fees are increased every year. But these people can't find a way to provide seats for the students after paying their bus fee.
Some other campus offer many varieties of food in their canteen. This has to be done here too

Placement Experience:

The students usually start appearing for campus placements in their 6th semester. The training for the campus placements is started for all the students from the 4th semester. Many companies visited for campus placements. But one main problem is that most of them were low packages. Around 4LPA. Some were between 4-6 and a very few between 6-10. Most of them got placed in our batch in some company.
