Remarks

I think overall college was a good experience for me till now. The area of the college is very less and as such many activities are restricted there is no proper auditorium and we have to sort outside places to exhibit our events

Entrance Preview

The entrance exam I wrote is KEAM. I wanted to get into one of the reputed colleges in Kerala. No ,as I was admitted based on my score just a meeting with the principal was needed. I was always interested in studying the working of stuff hence I thought engineering would be most suitable

Course Curriculum Overview

It was great .honestly there wasn't must practical learning. Not any research initiatives. We have electives from fifth semester onward

Internships Opportunities

No, we mostly go outside for internship. Overall the experience was good with the one internship I had. I got to learn things outside the course and apply them in real time

Placement Experience

The placement is good almost 3/4 of the students get placed. The major companies are Infosys, TCS,wipro,Mahindra, Tata elxsi. The average package is about 3lakh per annum

College Events

"CULT A WAY" is one of the highlight of the fest and is one of the best fest in Trivandrum . workshops are conducted . Autobahn is an automobile fest. There was always fixed amount given from the colleges but mostly students who organised this went outside colleges for getting sponsorship

Fee Structure And Facilities

Yes it was affordable . I was admitted on government merit seat. The fee is 35000 per annum including all other expenses such as exam fees, lab fees etc it can be up to 42000. For management seats price is 75000

Fees and Financial Aid

There was notifications about scholarship frequently during first year. I didn't avail any scholarship. The college's help in getting loan was very less

Campus Life

The extracurricular activities was given good promotion and students were given freedom to make use of the facilities. There was enough opportunities for activities in the college. The facilities available are less cause the area under college is very less

Hostel Facilities

Yep there is no hostel facility with the college. Hostel are maintained by private individuals but under college supervision. Most hostel rooms we're sharing as it saves a lot of money. Nop there aren't any PGs. The food in most hostel were average

Alumni/Alumna

There was proper interaction with the alumini. There are often sponsorship provided by the alumini

Exam Structure

Yep , our semester structure is very packed with exams almost every month but however lab exams are conducted efficiently

Faculty

The faculties are very qualified and most have completed their MTech from reputed institutions from all over the country. Help is sort out is assured by the faculties. The standard of teaching is good, but however the time limited semester constraint the teachers from imparting all their knowledge

Is engineering here worth it?

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

The teachers here are very friendly and very helpful
The climate here is also very peacefull and very good atmosphere to study
The students here are from everywhere so there is a big diversity in the culture

Dislikes

There is a lack of public transportation system like railway station here
There are lots of insects and others things here which is very disturbing during summer season
The main problem the students here are going through is the bad quality of hostel food that we get here

Placement Experience:

Our college is a NAAC accredited college and lots of companies come here to recruit our students . Last year one of a students who studied here got a really big placement of 48 lakhs per annum and there is a placement cell available here in the campus which tries to get all the students placement like these !!

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

An honest college review

I choose this college because it has vibrant campus life and freedom.It also has good placement records,good pass percentage. I also took due to distance advantage.This college also has good faculty, teaching. Although the campus is small, the infrastructure is well maintained. It has well structured labs.I also looked for cet, Trivandrum but I didn't get it because of my keam rank. The exam accepted for the course is keam and most of the students prefer it. Students can also join this college by nri quota without any entrance exam by giving more fees.I got admission in ece in sctce in the keam 1st allotment itself....Read More

A look inside Sct - Campus life, Academics and more

The main reason I chose this college was because this as under the Government of Kerala. It is held jointly by both government and ksrtc. This the standard of teachers will be better than other private colleges and campus life would be better as well. I have gotten confirmed admission from Amritha University and FISAT. I chose Sct because of the above given reason and also because of its location in trivandrum. I had applied to both Cet and Gect but I didn't pass the cutoff. The admission price for SCTCE is through KEAM which is held by the government of Kerala. If you have a valid rank you can apply to any college and can get selected according to the ranklist....Read More
