What Students Say

Likes

Overall environment was good and gave the college vibe
The geographical placement of the campus made it beautiful
The staffs were friendly and supportive and were good.

Dislikes

The management was strict of useless stuff.
Fests and events were also less prioritised

Course Curriculum Overview

2.5

The coding section was more prioritized and made me choose this course. The curriculum is too outdated and all the preparation needs to be done by the students and help from the staff. Teaching methods need more Innovation and more training sessions. The time limit was too low for each semester's exams.

Class Size: 54Course Fees: INR 350000 per year

Placement Experience

1.5

From the 7th semester, students are eligible for placements. The companies that came were Quest Global, UST Global, Sutherland, Innovature, etc. overall Students placed 102. The highest package is 5.4LPA and the Lowest is 2.5LPA. 40% Students were placed. Take a short-term course to know the Industry well and then take a job.

Fees and Financial Aid

I couldn't attend the KEAM exam so got admission in the NRI Quota so my yearly fees were 80k and my bus fees were 20k per year A caution deposit of 10k should be paid at the beginning of the admission which will be given as a refund when we graduate. There is merit and management quota with fees of 30k and 60k respectively. Scholarships are available according to the minority and marks basis.

Campus Life

Annual fest and Tech Fests are helped mostly in the even semesters. The library is easily accessible and has a large collection of books and journals. Classrooms and facilities are good and each department and lab has wifi connection. Sports and extracurricular activities are too low and not prioritized. There are a few clubs like FM club, Sports Club, Music Club, etc.

Admission

I had applied to a few colleges nearby like Saintgits and Amaljyoti but the fee structure was too high so had to opt for this college. Few colleges I got rejected as I couldn't attend the qualifying exam due to corona. KEAM exam-qualified students can get admission to the college.

Faculty

Faculty to student ratio is low as faculty were really outnumbered and the CS dept had friendly staff most of them and were really supportive Most of them made the journey easy. Each sem had 2 module exams and 2 series exams and finally sem exams The course curriculum is not at all relevant and needs to be modified immediately.

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

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible for campus placements from semester 6 onwards. But campus placement for civil engineering is fairly low. But companies like Aarbee Structures Pvt Ltd has offered jobs for my mates

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

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.

SEEING STCET THROUGH MY VISION

Candidates who have passed 12th examinations with physics, mathematics, and chemistry as their compulsory subjects with an aggregate of 45% are eligible to apply. I Got admission through the KEAM entrance exam conducted by the government of Kerala and the category allotted to me was state merit (SM). So the tuition fees were fixed by the government as INR 5O, OOO per yr and as it was a self-financing college they had many other fesses like special fees, placement training fees, etc. and at the time of admission, we had to pay 1000 Rs as admission fees and caution deposit of INR 10,000 (Refundable) and the 2023 year cutoff was 48567 for KEAM. 50-50 merit and management seats are available and at STCET a class comprised of 60 seats for each branch....Read More

College Life well spent at STCER

The admission process was quite simple. On the day of counselling based on your rank, you will be provided college. Suppose your rank is above 5000 you may have been called for counselling on day 2. Now there is the opportunity of selecting another college. I particularly followed this college since what I have heard from my seniors who used to study in this college is that here placement facilities were really outstanding .plus since I am from the outskirts of Kolkata I could reside anywhere in Khiddderpore where this college is situated.In simple terms, the location of this college is really good. The quite easy transport is also available here. To get CSE over here your rank should be above 6k. In my time anyone below 6k didn't get an opportunity to study over here....Read More
