What Students Say

Likes

Natural Beauty: The college is located in a region famous for its natural beauty, including forests, mountains, and rivers. Providing a good atmosphere for studying.
Faculties:They are vey supportive and encouraging.
College activities:Arts and Tech fest days are the best days.

Dislikes

Placements: Comparatively placement opportunities are less. Why because the college is on the top of a hill.
Hostel:There is two hostels for girls. Bt there is no any good boys hostel.
Wifi range : Wifi range is poor at some locations of the college.

Course Curriculum Overview

2.5

The course curriculum is not so good. Why because, noe the course is theory oriented. So that the students are not getting proper practical experience in software field. Moreover, the way of studying is exam oriented. Only two projects are there:in S4, mini project and in S8, main project. I think it's better to add more practicals in the curriculum.

Class Size: 62Course Fees: INR 13000 per year

Placement Experience

2.5

The placements are average. There is orientation classes on Placement drives. You need to pass the course without any backlogs. Then only u can attend the placement drives. However, there is some companies that are giving placements for students having 1-2 backlogs. The average package is from 3- 4.75 lpa. This year only 10 students out of 62 are placed from CS department.

Fees and Financial Aid

Since this is a government college, the course fee is around 13k per year.On the admission day we have to pay the full amount.But there is extra exam fee around 2k depends on number of subject per semester. And the hostel rent is 310/- per month and Mess fee is around 3k depends on the number of days you are having the food. Several scholarships and fellowships are providing.

Campus Life

I have a good experience. As a college student, I was so excited for college arst and tech fest. But unfortunately, in these 4yrs(2020-2024) there was no tech fest in my college. I have gained a lot of knowledge in this field. So, it is good to participate in hackathon competitions. And there is NSS, IeEE, Technoship Cell, Movie club, Dance club, Music club, Oasis (paliative care unit)...

Hostel Facilities

4.5

I am a hosteller. There is 2 hostels for girls ,which is inside the college campus.For boys, hostels are 1-2 kms away from the college. There college bus facility. And there is another stay facilities for boys in cheruthoni. In girls hostel ,rent :310/pmonth, mess bill around 3k aand Hostel development fund :100 per sem. Food is comparatively good(7/10) .

Hostel Fee: INR 3000 per year

Admission

The admission is through the KEAM exam. In 2020 the last rank was 12k something.Cut off varies with the cast.If yur are lookng Btech admission, then you have to qualify the KEAM entrance exam, mainly t3 subjects:Physics, Chemistry and Maths. Admission is besed on the score.

Faculty

3.5

They are so supprotive. The way of teaching is good. But some of them are not giving propernotes on the subjects.Provide good guidance on our projects. And also give support for extra curriculae activities.

Upon reaching s7 students are invited for campus placement but they have to pass different criteria to become eligible for attending the interview, a minimum cgpa of 7.5 and academic skills a these are the basic requirements and an aptitude test will be given and in further selection these criteria are looked. I plan on pursuing a job after completing by btech. More than half the students in a batch are getting placed usually.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because the curriculum covers key subjects like Python, Machine Learning, Data Science, and Deep Learning right from the early semesters. The inclusion of electives such as IoT, Cloud Computing, and NLP made it future-relevant and versatile.

Campus, comparing from nearby college this college had good visual beauty may be because of the college been part 2-3 movies. Visually the college are too good with nature

Dislikes

The Placement is weak as there is no opportunity to get a proper core based job from what you studied mainly job opportunities come from call centres which doesnt require Btech to study. This personally felt too sad to be here to get placed in core.

Course Curriculum Overview:

As of the college comes under Ktu syllabus it has already has demerits of the university. Curriculum basically doesnot provide a realworld application uses. Just creates a knowledge on the course (and thats doubt) We need to courses outside the college to get the core jobs outside

Placement Experience:

From the 6th semester students become eligible for campus placements. So many companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Gst Global, etc. are visited for placements. These companies provide placement for all the branches of the college. 90 percent of the students get placements. I prefer to go for higher studies after getting the degree.
