Remarks
Best College in Kerala for CS students. The college infrastructure isn't much good. The college is small to be honest. But the quality of students in technical knowledge and tremendous placement stats outshines it completely. That's why I opted this college even though I had a good rank
Course Curriculum Overview
The college follows Kerala Technical Universities curriculum and so it's not the worst in my opinion. But still not the best. As I am a first year student, I would say the subjects are not very interesting. I opted computer science and I have to study all the subjects the first year including Mechanical, Civil, Chemistry, physics, Electrical, Graphics etc. That's the only problem I guess. And about Lab, Model Engineering College (MEC) isn't the best at providing tools. And like all KTU colleges, there's a lot to write in your record book
Placement Experience
Model Engineering College is THE BEST college in Kerala in terms of placements for Compute Science and Electronics department. Literally. Last year, the college had almost 100% placement in the CE department. This is because the quality of students. They have impressive technical knowledge in the field. Big names like Google, Microsoft,Nvdia, Adobe etc have hired from the college in the past years. If you're looking for a college for good placement, MEC is the place
College Events
Excel is the techno managerial flagship fest of the college and it's first of its kind in India with the first edition held in 2001. With a lot of technical competitions, events an fun, Excel days are the best days in the college. Layatharang and Chakravyuh are the Arts and Sports Fest of the college which is also nice. It's an intra college event
Fee Structure And Facilities
Since it's a Govt Self Financing College, the fees for State Merit seat is Rs. 35,000 per annum. For Management seat, it is RS. 65,000 and nearly Rs. 100,000 for NRI seats. Compared to other Govt Colleges, it is higher for the merit seat.
Fees and Financial Aid
The College offer fee waiver for Top ranked students. Also the college helps to worthy students to claim scholarships by making them aware of it. Laptops are provided for scheduled class at free/ discount rates
Campus Life
Labs (except EC and CS labs) aren't at par with the other colleges in my opinion. It's not the worst but still not the best The college gives a lot support to sports and have Sports Fest in which College houses compete. They college also have social welfare societies like NSS, Thanal and Bhoomitra Sena which gives a sense of humanity to the students
Alumni/Alumna
Yeah. One of the best things about MEC. Seniors helps the juniors a lot in developing their technical knowledge. Ex MECians play a major role in the fantastic placement stats of the college. They influence a lot to bring placement drives to their beloved college
Admission
I had appeared for KEAM which was held in May 2019, after my CBSE board exams. Then after getting the results, I submitted my +2 results to KEAM website. After normalization of KEAM marks and CBSE marks for PCM, I was given a KEAM rank. Then I had to list down my preferred colleges in order at the KEAM website and I was allotted a college according to my rank (There are a total of three allotments). Then I took admission at the college
Faculty
Faculty of the college are nice and does their best. They teach with passion. Atleast most of them. And the faculty does a lot support for the placement cell of the college which is the best part of the college
