College Events

We celebrate onam every year. Exmas is celebrated only by the freshers. We also got a intercollege fest called tejavi. Its an art and technical fest.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Since this is aself financing institition fees is a bit expensive nearly 1 lakh rupees.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes scholarship/loan facility is offered by our college. A friend of mine is studying with an educational loan which i guess Will have to payback after the course.

Campus Life

3.5

Campus life is too strict. I found it really hard to be there at first. Later i started adjusting with the conditions. There is not much entertainment other than onam celebration, college day and sports day.

Exam Structure

We got 3 series exams in a sem. A model exam is conducted before the university exam. By the end of the sem it gets a bit tight. There is time for only 2 series exams still the managemnt conducts a 3rd one which makes the end of sem tight along with compl

Placement Experience:

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.

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

The college provides a good atmosphere to truly get a job in the competetive world if we are willing to work for it.
They heavily monitor attendance to make sure that you take your classes so that you perform well in your exams
The facilities provided by the college are good as there are several labs and workshops for hands-on experience

Dislikes

The campus life can get boring and it feels like we are in a rat race.
Some teachers can be a bit apathetic towards the students.
The number events that encourage social interactions in not many

The students are elegible for campus placements from the 7th semester and almost all students get placements provided they don't have any subject yet to clear at the time of placement. There are several companies that visit the college for recruiting including but not limited to TCS, CTS,etc,.

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.
