What Students Say

Likes

Good faculty in Mechanical department and good studying ambience.
High technology labs and experienced lab staffs.
Other than studies, many techno-cultural programme at collegee

Dislikes

The strictness which we face at college due to their autonomity.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The curriculum is based to nurture us into future engineers and I have found it extremely important for mechanical engineers especially. Our curriculum provides us real world scenarios of machines, tools and others that an engineer might use in future. Conducting the series exams between the semsters have found to be very helping for our final exams.

Class Size: 65Course Fees: INR 10000 per year

Placement Experience

3.5

One other attracting feature of our college is that they provide huge placement opportunities. Many companies like TATA, MRF, SHOBHA,L&T,etc are regular to our college. Highest placement offered to my knowledge is SHOBHA around 12LPA. I also hope to get placed after my degree completion. If not higher studies is my plan B

Fees and Financial Aid

Per semester we have an expense about 10000 including all the tuition fees, exam and semester registrations. A caution deposit of 17000 was paid for enrolling into the hostel which will be returned at the end of degree completion. Concession for other category students are provided at college under e-grantz.

Campus Life

4.5

Other than academics, our college has various clubs like NSS, Sports, SAE, IEDC,IEEE,IEI and so on... I am a member of NSS which gives me opportunity to interact socially with people and grow myself. We have a literacy club at our college supported by our own library with a wide variety of books and other sources. Events like sports day and techno-cultural fests are taking place at our college every year.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Hostel facilities are not bad when compared to other goverment college hostels. We have a room of five including two fans, beds, pillows, tables, chairs, etc.. Our hostel food is managed by an outside catering crew. The food is not bad but not as good as homely good. Registration processes were easy and simple. Hostel Life helps to interact with more people and socially build you for a college life.

Hostel Fee: INR 6000 per year

Admission

I chose this college for my engineering degree because I found out that it has one of the best mechanical engineering department in Kerala. I also got admission in MA college but when I compared the departments I found TKM more appealing. I enrolled in this college based on my KEAM Entrance marks so did other students except management students.

Faculty

3.5

One of the best faculty members for the Mechanical department in Kerala. They have good and vast knowledge on their field of study and are friendly with students. Per semester we have two series exams out of 50 marks and an internal lab exam. At the end we have our final semester exam.

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

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

Likes

The teachers here are very friendly and very helpful
The climate here is also very peacefull and very good atmosphere to study
The students here are from everywhere so there is a big diversity in the culture

Dislikes

There is a lack of public transportation system like railway station here
There are lots of insects and others things here which is very disturbing during summer season
The main problem the students here are going through is the bad quality of hostel food that we get here

Placement Experience:

Our college is a NAAC accredited college and lots of companies come here to recruit our students . Last year one of a students who studied here got a really big placement of 48 lakhs per annum and there is a placement cell available here in the campus which tries to get all the students placement like these !!

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
