Remarks

Excellent college, great atmosphere, good labs, well experienced staff and good curriculum. The college mainly lacks a good hostel. College bus facility is also limited to a bare minimum. Labs were equipped with the latest and best equipment.

Entrance Preview

KEAM entrance exam. My rank was around 6000.I wanted to do engineering from a Government college. I had many options in mind, but with the score I had, the only option I would get was this college. Also, I was very much interested in the programme I chose.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Curriculum was revised just about 2 years before i joined. So the syllabus was up to date and contained all the required latest technologies of that time. The teachers were also quite equipped as the new regulation was in place for the last two years.

Internships Opportunities

Internships were compulsory and we had to find it on our own. No stipend was given to us for the internship. Some industries gave stipend to those who got job there.

Placement Experience

3.5

Mainly software companies came to our college. There were no core jobs on offer. Only one company came with core job and I got it. Some students in mechanical engineering department and chemical engineering department got core job.

College Events

All festivals like Onam, Christmas, Holi etc. We had college day celebration, union inauguration celebration etc. Then there was college election and the celebration for that.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Government college fee was Rs. 6000/- per year.There was a monthly college bus charge which was not too much. Main expense was for hostel which was private.

Fees and Financial Aid

None that I know. There were some for the low income students and backward community which was offered by government.

Campus Life

4.5

Extra curricular was limited due to the lack of initiative from the faculty who were already overloaded. FOSS group was active and many activities were carried out.

Hostel Facilities

External hostel. Nice food, good facility, but too expensive. Lack of college hostel was a big problem.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Most senior students got job in core industries. They were our inspiration to try and get a core job. Alumni chapter is quite strong conducting frequent meets which are well organized.

Exam Structure

We had two internal exams for 100 marks, which would be taken into the final internals on 50.A university exam for 100 marks.Lab was assessed internally

Faculty

Excellent teaching faculty with quite a lot of experience in teaching as well as industry. We had teachers from other branches who taught domain specific topics giving us a feel of an interdisciplinary course.

Placement Experience:

Upon reaching s7 students are invited for campus placement but they have to pass different criteria to become eligible for attending the interview, a minimum cgpa of 7.5 and academic skills a these are the basic requirements and an aptitude test will be given and in further selection these criteria are looked. I plan on pursuing a job after completing by btech. More than half the students in a batch are getting placed usually.

I chose this course because the curriculum covers key subjects like Python, Machine Learning, Data Science, and Deep Learning right from the early semesters. The inclusion of electives such as IoT, Cloud Computing, and NLP made it future-relevant and versatile.

Campus, comparing from nearby college this college had good visual beauty may be because of the college been part 2-3 movies. Visually the college are too good with nature

Dislikes

The Placement is weak as there is no opportunity to get a proper core based job from what you studied mainly job opportunities come from call centres which doesnt require Btech to study. This personally felt too sad to be here to get placed in core.

Course Curriculum Overview:

As of the college comes under Ktu syllabus it has already has demerits of the university. Curriculum basically doesnot provide a realworld application uses. Just creates a knowledge on the course (and thats doubt) We need to courses outside the college to get the core jobs outside

The college provides a good atmosphere to truly get a job in the competetive world if we are willing to work for it.
They heavily monitor attendance to make sure that you take your classes so that you perform well in your exams
The facilities provided by the college are good as there are several labs and workshops for hands-on experience

Dislikes

The campus life can get boring and it feels like we are in a rat race.
Some teachers can be a bit apathetic towards the students.
The number events that encourage social interactions in not many

Placement Experience:

The students are elegible for campus placements from the 7th semester and almost all students get placements provided they don't have any subject yet to clear at the time of placement. There are several companies that visit the college for recruiting including but not limited to TCS, CTS,etc,.

Placement Experience:

From the 6th semester students become eligible for campus placements. So many companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Gst Global, etc. are visited for placements. These companies provide placement for all the branches of the college. 90 percent of the students get placements. I prefer to go for higher studies after getting the degree.
