Remarks

There are only positives to say about our college.There is unexploited freedom in the air and constructive time for the students.Leisure activities and academics in a line makes our graduation go in a right and pleasant way.only negative to depict is the hostel and space,which is negotiable.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

There are 6 theory subjects and 2 labs/workshops from first semester to sixth,in 7th sem,6 subjects with seminar and project preliminary and 1 lab.In 8th sem,there are 4 theory subjects and Project.This is based on the old scheme of ktu,new scheme (from 2019 admissions) is a bit different.Two series tests will be conducted and one university exam in each semester.

Placement Experience

SCTCE is well known for its placement cell.Its very active and every year many students are getting jobs from the campus placement to reputed companies like TCS,Infosys, Tata elxsi,amazon etc.We have to do two internships during the course.

College Events

It is the main or the popular thing about our college.Almost every programmes or events are conducted by the students(us) ourselves.Main events include arts day,sports day,technical events and our prestigious cultural event 'Cult A Way' which is one of the biggest college fests in Kerala.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is based on the university criteria.As given above fee structure is divided as three,Government merit,Management,and NRI quota(Since our college is under the transport ministry of kerala KSRTC quota is also in the scene) 35000,75000 and 100000 fees for each seats respectively.

Fees and Financial Aid

There are loans available with the college.Since our college is under the board of directors from the transportation Ministry of kerala,there are special quotas and loans available based on that.Further details can be availed during the admission time.

Campus Life

3.5

There are labs in every semester as pointed above.All labs will be based on the courses they've selected so far.There are many extracurricular activities inside and outside the college like arts day.Unofficial and official sports events are conducted in every semesters.Arts fest,Techno-Cultural events,workshops,etc.are there.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

At present there are no hostels running by the college itself.But there is one for female students, a hostel under control of the college approx 500m away from the college.Many private paying hostels and rental houses are near the college.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

The Alumni of our college conducts meet ups and other function every year.They are also so active and are contributing to the college also.Almost all of them are proud and happy to say about their alma mater.

Admission

After the final allotment (based on KEAM rank and plus two marks) I got notification from the college to join in a given date.There were instructions about the procedures to be followed during admission.Certain certificates and documents should be presented during admission.There are three types of fee structures,Government merit,Management*(based on KEAM ranking),and NRI quota.35000,75000 and 100000 respectively excluding university fees and other extra special fees.

Faculty

The faculties are well experienced and many have doctorates.They are helping and have good knowledge about their subjects in and out of the syllabus.We can approach at most everyone seeking help in academic issues or personal ones.

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.

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.

All the teachers are well qualified and equipped to teach but the quality of teaching differs as per individual.

Dislikes

The say of students in matters concerning them or others is nil. We have very little say as the management takes all decisons.
Teachers have ego and superiority issues between themselves which might affect the children in 4th year,project phases.
Fests,events and functions are not upto any expectations.Schools in trivandrum have better events than our college.

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible from 7th semester to sit for interviews. The pod.ai app helps us in making the resume and calculating a cgpa to appear for the intwrviews. The pod.ai registration fees is 500?. Companies such as nissan,infosys,commandtech,bimlabs,gulfasia etc has visited . And the highest package was 11 LPA and lowest was 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.

An honest college review

I choose this college because it has vibrant campus life and freedom.It also has good placement records,good pass percentage. I also took due to distance advantage.This college also has good faculty, teaching. Although the campus is small, the infrastructure is well maintained. It has well structured labs.I also looked for cet, Trivandrum but I didn't get it because of my keam rank. The exam accepted for the course is keam and most of the students prefer it. Students can also join this college by nri quota without any entrance exam by giving more fees.I got admission in ece in sctce in the keam 1st allotment itself....Read More

A look inside Sct - Campus life, Academics and more

The main reason I chose this college was because this as under the Government of Kerala. It is held jointly by both government and ksrtc. This the standard of teachers will be better than other private colleges and campus life would be better as well. I have gotten confirmed admission from Amritha University and FISAT. I chose Sct because of the above given reason and also because of its location in trivandrum. I had applied to both Cet and Gect but I didn't pass the cutoff. The admission price for SCTCE is through KEAM which is held by the government of Kerala. If you have a valid rank you can apply to any college and can get selected according to the ranklist....Read More
