Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The course is fine, with less focus on practical knowledge, more importance is given to theoretical concepts. Many research initiatives have been taken by the Institute covering a wide range of topics. For 5th semester some of the elective options provided for different branches include Soft computing, biomedical engineering, signals and systems, optimization techniques etc.

Internships Opportunities

No, the College doesn't provide Internship facilities but few departments help to recommend students.

Placement Experience

There are very few core companies coming for the placement.

College Events

3.5

CONJURA was a 3-day national level technical cum cultural fests which involved students from various colleges participating.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The institution is very affordable. Admission Fee is 16000 and KTU exam fee is Rs 1775

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes, the College provides the scholarship for different economically backward classes like SC, ST, OBC, OEC and for girl students.

Hostel Facilities

Yes, we resided in the hostel. The rooms were provided on a sharing basis. Most rooms had 4 inmates. There were a few private PG that provided accommodation at reasonable rates nearby the college premises.

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

We have a strong alumni network. Various interactive sessions are organized for helping the students.

Faculty

Most of the Faculties have a masters degree in their respective field. The experienced faculty including the senior advisors and HOD also hold Ph.D. The advisors are very interactive and look into both personal as well as academic matters of every student. Most of the faculty is of helping and dedicated nature. The standard of teaching can be improved a bit more.

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

TIST , Great college , fun events and more

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

Review about Toc H Institute of Science and Technology

Likes

When it comes to the campus life, I enjoyed all the 4 years
The infrastructure was okayish Could've improved.
The faculty was really friendly and I was able to approach them without any hesitation.

Dislikes

The road from the junction to the college is not at all maintained. Students coming up the hill find it very difficult to reach college
The bus fees are increased every year. But these people can't find a way to provide seats for the students after paying their bus fee.
Some other campus offer many varieties of food in their canteen. This has to be done here too

Placement Experience:

The students usually start appearing for campus placements in their 6th semester. The training for the campus placements is started for all the students from the 4th semester. Many companies visited for campus placements. But one main problem is that most of them were low packages. Around 4LPA. Some were between 4-6 and a very few between 6-10. Most of them got placed in our batch in some company.
