Likes

The college provides numerous opportunities to participate in hackathons, technical events, project competition, and cultural activities. This gives students a chance to explore their interest.
Faculty members are approachable and students can interact with them comfortably regarding academics, projects, and other college - related activities. Good staff interaction makes it easier to clarify doubt and seek guidance.
The availability of both technical and cultural events gives students to take break, socialize, discover new interest. Students can improve their problem-solving, teamwork, communication, and presentation skills by participating in competitions.

I liked so many club events which is happening once for each and every year
I love to play some management games based on the management studies
I liked to attend many club activities which was conducted by our academic clubs

Dislikes

Most of the time, they were exposing unnecessary fine
Due to some issues for the student, they will expose the fine immediately
suddenly so many kinds of irrelevant penalties were exposed

Course Curriculum Overview:

the areas for the improvements that in the course curriculum and teaching methods are give some PDFs, PPTs, and as well as some google links based on the anna university syllabus. Especially, the timing level should be change. because, in the CIA examinations, there are totally 1:30 hours only allocated to write for totally 50 marks. So, the management wants to extend the time for minimum half an hour i.e., totally 2 hours.

Nit Trichy B.Sc. B.ed. student review

Likes

girls to boys ratio is 1:1 is we consider all three branches with some courses with more male while other having for female.more or less the ratio is near 1:1
the most important thing for you is there is close to zero discrimination for you , whether you want to join any club or perform anything you are equivalent to students with others bachelor degree
octagon and library are the two things which are good as library is considered the biggest library among all nit's while octagon having 800 computers for students.NSO ground is also well maintained with the beautiful mig fighter jet to take cool phot

Dislikes

for first years hostel are well maintained if compared with others but don't expect much from hostel atlast this is a government college.in first year 3 to 4 person sharing room are there which was build to carry 2 person.
Quant and entrepreneur thing is not there as you might expect by seeing the nirf 9 ranking but it is not zero .they are growing clubs like profNITT and Sigma are young and they could do better
curfew timing for girls are 9 or 9:30 pm i guess be it any year. for boys ,only freshers have curfew with timing 9:30 pm.other than that any student can't step outside the college after 10 pm without the sign out form.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose this course as maths is the mother of all science and quite related to other fields so it opens a lot of door for me like mba ,mtech ,phd or any other things. this course is specifically designed for becoming teachers so keep that in mind before taking this course as they are not flexible in changing curriculum or adding something for the sake of students as of now. also you will be having more working days compared to other courses with 80 percent mandatory attendance.after first sem you will get 1 week holiday and after 2nd sem you will get 50.days holiday and after first year you can expect 20 days holiday for winters and 50 days holiday for summers. you will get a lot of time to study for exams. before ct 1 you can expect 2 months and then atleast a month for ct 2 and endsems. cons are that you don't have the right to choose minor or electives like btech students.you have to compulsory study all three science .i.e. maths , physics, chemistry.
