Amal Jyothi College of Engineering Kanjirappally, B.Tech, Electronics & Communication Engineering

Reviewed on Mar 19, 2020

Remarks

Its an above average college. Considering the physical aspects. It is certainly the best looking college in kerala. Coming to academics it is an above average college. But the thing is they make us work hard and the schedule is hectic. Its like a golden cage

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Its a vast curriculum. But the engineering curriculum of kerala technological university is very hectic. It is a book based teaching method rather than a practical one. The exams requires you to byheart and mug up stuff that you would never use in your life.

Placement Experience

Placement and job oppurtunities are better in comparison to other colleges. The only draw back is that the college is situated in koovappally which is an hour away from the main district kottayam. Other than that many software and hardware companies recruit from amal jyothi.

College Events

3.5

The biggest event that occurs here is the azure cultural fest. Other than that many technical fests like IEDC, Azuretechfest etc occur. Also culutural fests occur during onam. Although there isnt a hige number of fests in comparison to ither colleges the ones that occur are well conducted.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee for a semester is around 60-80k inr/year for ECE and around 80K per year for CS. In comparison to other colleges this is very affordable considering the college architecture and beauty. I think this is an affordable and right price.

Fees and Financial Aid

Our college as per my knowledge doesnt offer scholarships to students. But you can go for government scholarships with your university marks and avail them. I dont think the college gives out any loans.

Campus Life

The gender ratio is pretty solid for computer science, ECE, , chemical, civil branches. Almost all sports are played here. Football, cricket, basketball, volleyball, handball, chess, badminton, table tennis are some of them

Hostel Facilities

The hostel food is of very good quality and not bad in terms of taste but you get bored of eating the same rice and curry everyday. Coming to the infrastructure the hostel is well built with a basketball court in the middle. Also the hostel is connected to the college via a bridge which makes travelling to college much easier.

External Expense: Rs. 2000 - Rs. 4000

Alumni/Alumna

The seniors are very friendly and give good advice. The college has an anti ragging policy. You might be asked to sing a song atmost. Nothing beyond that. My seniors are supportive and friendly and I can depend on them whenever I need to.

Admission

I wrote keam entrance exam and qualified. Also amal jyothi has no merit seats. All seats are either management seats or Nri seats. I got in through management. There was a small counselling session. All other procedures was done online.

Faculty

3.5

The faculty members are supportive and highly qualified. Though some of them may be arrogant most of them are above average. Overall the faculty is well qualified and capable. Also a cousellor is available incase you have any problems.

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

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.

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.
