What Students Say

Likes

The main think i liked is nothing but i can interact with many friends from different parts of india.
One thing i liked in college is they are trying to develop infrastructure day by day

Dislikes

There is no enough shops near the college purchase anything
The mess food is almost a worst and it is compulsory to pay the mess fee
Their are many rules to take a leave and to go outside

Course Curriculum Overview

I am very much satisfied about this curriculum actually our exam structure was like 2 mid sem exams and then followed by end sem exam but now it is changed to 1mid sem exam and then direct to end sem exam.And one more important thing that i liked here is eventhough i am ece student there are many subjects related to cse students so we can get knowledge for that subjects also..

Class Size: 60Course Fees: INR 240000 per year

Internships Opportunities

Actually n number of companies are there and as first year i am not that much aware of internship right now and i am feeling like i need to learn some skills related to my area of interest in the first year vacation time.

Placement Experience

4.5

I think from third year onwards we can sit for that company interviews and one placement cell is their in our college and they will guide us to approach companies and highest package of our college is 58-59LPA and at that time all students were placed in jobs and you can just find more details by just checking our college website

Fees and Financial Aid

Actually our tuition is 120k for 1 semester and there is difference of 11k compared to second years till now i don't know about the increasing policy.And we need to pay for hostel&mess fee along with the tution fee.so total amount would be min.170k per sem.if you have any financial issues then college will arrange bank loan and that procedures.

Campus Life

Actually i am feeling happy here and as first i participated in many club events related to different topics and all.we have our technocultural fest named apoorv usually it is happening on march and we also have sports fest pradva and arts fest adavya

Hostel Facilities

4.5

First of all i don't know about college hostel facilities becuse for first years they are providing outside hostels and all hostels within the range of 5km from campus.Almost all hostels have good facilities also each hostel have their specialities for us it is like 3 person in a room and attached bathroom and almost 1km from campus.

Hostel Fee: INR 50000 per year

Admission

The admission is based on the ranks of jee exam 2023 eventhough there are reservations in admission procedure there is no such reservations in case of tution fee.The admission procedure was cool.many of us are not even aware of where these process are going on and all.so some senior students and other staffs were there and they guide us to reach there.

Likes

The campus is well maintained and is clean
Teachers are willing to give individual attention if needed
Above average food is provided in canteen

Dislikes

Lack of campus life as college is strict
Majority of the staff members are the type to hold a grudge against you
Spoon feeding students and not allowing them to think and improvise accordingly

Decent infrastructure. hostel infrastructure is also clean and better than most colleges

Dislikes

Very poor campus life. No importance for cultural programmes and activities
Very poor and degrading environment for women. Faculties and other staff are very judgemental.
Very low packages for average students. Placement training is regularly being provided, but it is too hectic to be managed along with curriculum.

Placement Experience:

students become eligible for placements after sixth semester. Major companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, e.t.c are recruiters. about 5-10 students are recuited on average by these companies. highest package was offered by south indian bank in 2023 (10 LPA). average packges are around 2 to 3 LPA.

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

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.

I cleared JEE MAINS and on the basis of my rank, I applied for many colleges. I was specifically looking for the top two engineering branches that is Computer Science and Electronics and Communication Engineering and have applied for many but could not get into it due to higher rank category. Earlier I got Civil Engineering in NIT SILCHAR then I got Electronics and Communication Engineering at IIIT KOTTAYAM. I preferred IIIT KOTTAYAM over NIT SILCHAR because of the branch since Electronics and Communication Engineering is considered the second best branch after Computer Science Engineering. Yes, I got rejection from other colleges because the eligibility criteria for those colleges were securing high rank but my rank was not up to the mark. To get into such colleges , students need to clear Jee Mains and secure a good rank to get into such colleges. For general category , students need to get the rank under 30000 to get admission to such colleges. Colleges are listed via Josaa Counselling. Admission procedure is the student need to bring some of the important documents such as 10th and 12th board marksheet , category paper , jee rank and other such important documents to get into the admission procedure. The process starts in the academic section....Read More

The only reason I choosed this college is because of it placements but now they are worst for my batch almost 70 percent people are unplaced. and i choosed this college because i wanted cse and either i could get lower branches in top colleges or top branchs in low colleges. so i preffered choosing cse. i applied for NIT Suratkal, NIT Warangal mechanical BUt i felt CSE Would be much better so i end up landing here. the other reason why i preferad my college is because of its beautiful campus. yes i got rejected from nit surathkal cse because my jee rank was low...Read More
