As it's state run we cannot say there's zero corruption. Some professors and staff may not seem to be the most sincere. Some many have ego problems. But most of them are generally supportive and caring.

The college comes under KTU which is a university for technical institutions only. The curriculum is research driven but we also have a fair share of industry relevant courses. But some of the courses have a bit outdated syllabus. Also we can't take extra credits of our choice. We can only choose from a very small list and it's only open to students with very good CGPA. We also get placements training occasionally and as I'm a sophomore we don't get that many. But internship and placement oriented session are conducted quite often for 3rd and 4th students by the college and respected departments.

Placements are excellent. Companies like Amazon, Arcesium, ABB, Texas Instruments, Analog Devices, Redpine Labs, Cypress Semiconductors, Siemens, Robert Bosch, Nissan Digital, Rolls-Royce, BPCL, Fleet Management, MRF, Royal Enfield, Hyundai, EY, Allianz, SAP Labs, Intuit, Flytxt, Saint Gobain etc come for recruitments. Many other start-ups and service based companies like TCS, Wipro, Infosys, Accenture etc also visit our campus. The institution gives good assistance for the students to procure placements.

Both electronic and cash payments are accepted. The college has a very moderate fee structure. Apart from tuition fee, PTA fund, caution deposit and other necessary payments no other charges are needed. The college is state run therefore there's complete transparency in all monetary aspects.

The college, state govt and the national govt gives many scholarships for the disabled, economically weak and meritorious students. The eligibility criteria ranges from annual income of family to entrance ranks, board exam score, CGPA etc. The alumni association CETAA also give a lot of scholarships for the needy. There is a scholarships department in the administration department for giving assistance to the students.

As any engineering colleges the gender ratio favours boys. But it is better than most of the colleges in the state. There's a healthey social culture. Occasionally the political parties cause a little issues. But studying in a politically active college has it's own unique perks. All the problems of the students are addressed fast. The student council, club heads and execom members are all really supportive and helpful. Tech culture is excellent in the campus. There's a lot of peer to peer learning of industry relevant cutting edge technology happening here. The different clubs and student societies conduct workshops, lecture series, competitions etc very often.

The rooms are spacious with 2 or 3 sharing a room. The food is of good quality. There's no restrictions in our PG regarding the night outs if permission taken beforehand.

The alumni network of CET, namely CETAA is one of the biggest in the world. It has chapters all around the world. They give both economical and intellectual support to the college. Some of very commonly heard names in the fields of architecture, aerospace engineering, management, academia and even art including film directors music directors, musicians, script writers, intellectuals are from CET.

Admission is based on the rank list of KEAM. CET is the primary option for any candidate taking admission through KEAM. There are many factors that made me choose CET. It is the first engineering college in Kerala, and among the best. Some of the best minds in the state study here. A vast and beautiful campus. Awesome labs. Excellent tech and social culture. Some of the best technical and cultural tests in the country. Best placement stats in the state. So many opportunities in all the curricular and non curricular fields. Research opportunities are also good. Once the KEAM rank list is out(rank is based on your board marks and KEAM score with 1:1 weightage) the allotment process starts. We can fill out our preferred colleges in the required order in the website and the best college available for our rank is alloted after 4 rounds of allotment. For circuit branches in CET it is preferable to have a rank below 1.3k. Once alloted we can go and take admission at the college with the datasheet and allotment memo provided in the website for each student's profile.

Almost all the permanent faculties are highly educated and have their master's and PhDs from reputed colleges IITs and IISc. Many of them also have done their PhDs, Post Doc's and master's from internationally acclaimed institutions outside of India. We have around 45 full time faculties in our department. Majority of them have PhDs. Average age is 45. Most of them have very good insights in the topics that they cover. Many of them are part of the ongoing research programs and projects funded by CERD, DRDO, ISRO etc. They also have very good industry experience as they provide consultancy services for the industry.
