What Students Say

Likes

Fresh and calm surroundings, we wake up with peacock and sunrise, sunset, clouds, stars are at the best view from CUTN
Get to interact with people from different states, learn their languages, get to know their culture as well.
Facilities for physics lab is good, if we have interest everything is useful

Dislikes

Infrastructure is good but i wish it is well maintained

Course Curriculum Overview

Physics is one of my favorite subjects as it includes mathematics and imagination which made me choose physics as my core subject. We all know that our real life is based on physics even if we don't know the exact scientific terms for it, which makes us wonder and incite our curiosity.

Class Size: 28Course Fees: INR 20000 per year

Internships Opportunities

We have some summer workshops, and if we want internship we have to contact faculty through mail or in person, as a student in 3rd year I'm not sure about the companies and placement details, projects can be done from 3rd year itself.

Placement Experience

From last sem of 5th year placements will be offered, students go through interviews for various companies, I'm not sure about the packages. I would recommend the students to study even after getting placements in here because we aren't sure about the assurance they give

Fees and Financial Aid

Our fee is around 9000 per semester. So for a year, it's around 20000. This is great for the facilities that are available in our university while compared to other private universities. We have hostels as well with beautiful surroundings and nature. Placements are also available.

Campus Life

Infrastructure are all so good in here, But unfortunately its not well maintained. Our university is in the Village side so we get to have a peaceful life while compared to the city life, we mostly wake up with a peacock sound in the fresh breeze. We also celebrate various festivals celebrated in different parts of India, we'll get to interact with other state peoples and get to know their languages and cultures. Basketball, football, kabadi, badminton, kho kho, table tennis, cricket various sports are also there.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Right now I'm in OGH, where 2 person per room is allotted we have plenty of space for ourselves, mess is okishh if you want a healthy meals just go with mess food,hostel applications will be available in CUTN website.

Hostel Fee: INR 5000 per year

Admission

I wrote an exam called CUET 202. The eligibility to write this exam is 12th pass with a minimum 60% in physics, chemistry, and maths. The application form and updates will be available in Samarth portal website. We have CUET UG and PG 2 exams which is conducted once in a year, questions are quite easy in ug level as it's based on 11th and 12th syllabi. During my time we were not aware of this CUET exam even my friends don't know about central university that are available in India, it would be better if it reached everyone who suffers for education.

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.

HIMT COLLEGE REVIEW

Likes

The faculties are very well experienced and there are captains who stay in the campus itself, so if there’s something we need they will be available all the time
The facilitieslike labs, ship in campus, DB tank facilities etc are top notch
The classrooms are fully air conditioned. There’s smart board. Overall everything is really good and also neat and clean

Dislikes

Galley food can improve a little and canteen is comparatively small for such a big campus
They are not conducting intra- college events and inter-college events is very less

Placement Experience:

Placements are really good in HIMT. I got placed in 1st year itself in MOLMI. All faculties try their best to prepare us for the placements and it shows in the placement interview also. Usually companies come for placements from 2nd year but there are some companies who want to take girl cadets 1st year itself. MOLMI, MOLTA etc came to our college for placements. After completion of the course, company will call for induction and accordingly they will call for joining the ship. For finishing the cadet ship , we have finish 12 months of sea time. After that a lot courses has to be done for appearing in 2 nd mates exam.
