What Students Say
Likes
- Unlike other engineering colleges in kerala,especially government control ones you get hell alot of freedom.there is no uniform nor you have to get permission to go outside.student union is also available for helping you when you need any help.
- Another positive thing i feel about this college is campus politics.Some may see this as negative thing but campus politics is vital for college students.You get the right to choose the union leaders.
- Transportation feasibility .The location of this college is a major plus point.It is only 4-6 km from the trivandrum central railway station and public transportation is availible 24x7.Further this college is located in the highway side
Dislikes
- Campus is a major con of this college.It has a small campus consisting of four to five buildings including main block.All classes are packed in the main block and other buildings are used as labs for variius department
- Since it has a small campus the campus life is also boring.there is no much place for chilling togerther with friends. Campus is usually crowded in the evenings in the one or two socialising space available
- Professor's may not be supportive as u think they are at first.Student centric Professors are rare.Most of the staffs are taken on contract basis .Most of the staff's come in with a tom of ego.
Course Curriculum Overview
Sadly current curriculum i am in doesnt prepare you for real world.They just test you work ethic by forcing you to mug up for exams.exams are long and also can be crowded together to a week or two.Also semesters are too short .So each students don't get enough preparation time. The curriculm gives no exposure the industrues .s Physical education and some changes in the syllabus has been brought in the new schemes .But other things remain unchanged
Fees and Financial Aid
The clg has 4 types of seats.First one is lower fee merit seat which is selected on the basis on keam rank.It costs about 50 -55 k.Then there is higher fee merit seat which also taken on the basis on keam rank.It costs about 85k to 1L.then for nri the fee will more thn 2L.For nri seat it is first come first serve criteria. For those who come as lateral entry(after finishing diploma) need to pay the fee almost same as merit fee structure. So sunming up Merit seat- 50-55 k Higher fee merit- 80 to 1L Lateral entry- 55- 60k Nri- more than 2L The fee has been increasing each year by small amount.The student union has been trying to voice against that throughout these years but no action has been taken by the management.
Campus Life
Cult a way is the annual tech fest of sct.Due to the limitation of campus area it is conducted on nisagandhi auditorium. Along with cult a way other programmes like arts , freshers,union day, demo day are also conducted. The above programmes are conducted inside the campus only. Various clubs in the college include ieee,evogen,mekartians,velocetors,cse club etc.other non-engineering clubs are also active like 1. film club 2.music club 3.sct MUN club 4.Fashion club sct 5.under 25 sct 6.fine arts club 7.abrupt dance club From above film club conducts film fest and other campus activities.

Eventhough there are campus area and infrastructure limitations social aspects and club involvement doesn't diminish with that excuse.
