Course Curriculum Overview

All the courses are well planned and organized, and classroom lectures closely follow the curriculum, We have the separate course on various laboratory in different departments. The objective of every course is to provide exposure to practical and daily life problems. We have PhD/research scholars working under faculties on different areas. Research areas include microbiology, Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) ..etc {actually I am not very much aware of research going on, in other departments ... as they tend to keep it secret ! :-) } Every department offer Electives courses in its specific areas(like CFD, Machine learning, mathematics courses etc ) , which is open to all students irrespective of their department. Additionally, we have humanities electives as well (like Economics, Western Philosophy, German A1 etc).

Internships Opportunities

The institute provides internship according to research requirement in departments. Also, It sends students to other institutions for internship programs. The experience of Engineers much more fascinating in the field than in the lectures during Internship.

Placement Experience

Since this institute started in year 2015, the first batch is yet to graduate. Therefore no details regarding placement is available. However we have a separate team working in contacting companies and other institutes for placements.

Fees and Financial Aid

We have scholarship programs. I did not avail of any scholarship till yet.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Every student resides in Hostel. Currently there are 3 hostels and every two students share one room. The details of the hostel fees can be found on the document shared earlier. Food here is quite good. Actually, north Indians find it little difficult to adjust with south Indian food and culture but it can be adjusted with time.

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

The first batch (of 2015) is yet to graduate. However, we have an alumni network from other IITs.

Faculty

All faculties here are well experienced and are engaged in some research work. All students are free to interact and give their ideas to all faculties. Faculties are very helpful. The teaching is based on conceptual learning and practical applications. It's all about self-learning rather than spoon feeding.

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.

Review of TOC H institute of science and technology

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.
