Remarks

There are many positive vibes in our college. The big greenery is the main attraction of campus. Since our college is the best engineering college in Kerala, every front line companies are came here for recruitment. So we got good placement facilities. We have good freedom in the campus. Totally I like this college.

Course Curriculum Overview

Course curriculum is good. There is 6 semesters. Each having 5 theory paper and labs. Internal marks of 40 and external exam mark of 60 total out of hundred. Internal marks are calculated by the 2 series exams and the assignments.

Placement Experience

4.5

College of Engineering Trivandrum is the first engineering college in Kerala. This college have a very well known former students. Most of them are well known in their field and they good designations in different companies. So opportunities to do internship in their companies.Here we get lots of India famous multinational companies.

College Events

4.5

There are mainly three fests in our college. Disha, Drishti,Dwani. And there are many technical competitions. We get opportunities to participate in all events. These events are led by the students. So students can improve their organisational skills.

Fee Structure And Facilities

MCA course have 7000 rupees fee per semester. It is very comfortable , since this is a government college, there is no other academic expenses. And students also get scholarships and stipends through various government departments. So fee structure is very comfortable.

Fees and Financial Aid

Government of Kerala and Central Government of India are providing many scholarships. The notifications of these scholarships are noticed in college. So we got aware about the scholarships. Banks are also gives loans to students. The amount of money is depended on the fee structure.

Campus Life

We are getting many stages to express our extra curricular activities.Here we have indoor stadium and physical education. Different clubs are very actively working. Cycling club,film club, entrepreneur cell etc. College have good lab facilities.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

I didn't opt hostel. I think hostel facilities are not good. and I joined in a private hostel. College hostel is not large enough. It only contain a limited number of students. There are only 5 percentage accommodation for Post graduation students

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

Since college of engineering Trivandrum is the first engineering college and top one engineering college in Kerala,we have good collection of alumnis. There is an actively working alumni association. Called CETAA. Every year there is alumini meeting. And alumni also give donations for many programmes in CET.

Admission

There was a entrance exam conducted in july first week.This entrance exam is conducted by LBS centre Kerala. Then got 12th rank in MCA entrance exam. Then I got allotment in CET.When I got allotted , I have to pay a fee of 7000 in bank. After that I came to college and joined here.

Faculty

Educated and skilled. They got the job through the teachers exams. So they are very talented qualified. But they are strict so students get freedom to express their views and get opportunities to improve their personality skills.

College at the heart of kuttanad

Likes

Academic structure is pretty good. Exams will be conducted earlier and the results will also be published at the earliest.
Value of the university is pretty good. Placement options are also comparatively better.
Classes are arranged daily and the teachers are always available there with all support

Dislikes

The infrastructure is not that good. It's just average
The campus itself is said to be in a very rural area and so there a some drawbacks. Reaching the city area is a lil bit time consuming.
Internship option is not provided. Only project submission is allowed. But main campus (CUSAT) allows both the options.

Placement Experience:

Placements are pretty good. Well reputed companies are offering Placement options. Cusat is providing a personal email to it's students and this even help us while applying for jobs and Placements. After covid pandamic placements become comparatively lower than before.

Nirmala College Muvattupuzha - A Good Campus

Likes

I liked that the college has a large campus situated on top of a hill with trees on both sides of the 500m long paved entrance. The college is nature friendly.
The college is a well known college in the district with 17 Undergraduate and 14 Postgraduate programs. The college has NAAC accreditation with a high CGPA score of 3.73, one of the highest in the state of Kerala.
The atmosphere is vibrant and friendly with a good balance in academics and extracurricular activities.

Dislikes

The college doesn't really encourage students in sports.
The college has a students union, but they are pretty much useless.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choosed MCA at Nirmala College due to several reasons: • It is a course which is open to anyone who has passed any bachelor's degree with a minimum of 50% and above. The only prerequisite is that one need to attend the annual LBS MCA entrance examination to secure admission to this course. • The syllabus of MCA in this college is affiliated with that of MG University, Kottayam. It is a vast syllabus covering various applications of computer science including programming in various languages such as C, Java, PHP, Python, data structures, algorithms, statistics, data mining, machine learning, software engineering, networking, etc. • The course is theoretically good but practically it doesn't really equip all students with enough knowledge and understanding to be placed in a good IT company. Some portions could be excluded from various theory subjects such as Networking with TCp/Ip and Algorithms Analysis.

Placement Experience:

As all other Professional colleges, they are offering placement support to get students placed in the top companies around Kerala. If a student is appearing 3rd sem or 4th sem they will automatically be considered for a placement chance. The top companies which recruit from this college are Technopark and TCS.therevare approximately 50 placements are currently made. Even they recruit people the salaries are low for a fresher, as they're below 25000 rupees. Currently, I am thinking about looking for a job in foreign countries after getting my degree completed.

This college is the best government college in Kerala. It has been consistently first in KIRF ranking. It has very cheap fees. The campus is very beautiful and spacious (about 200 acres). My best choice of colleges very IITs and NITs like most people. I couldn't crack JEE. I only applied to this college because I had very high ranking in KEAM exam and was confident of acceptance. KEAM exam is a lot easier to crack than JEE. It has basic higher secondary school syllabus. To get my course you would have to be around 700th rank. To get other courses in my college you can have rank as low as 20k....Read More
