Very peaceful college the surrounding is full of tress it looks so good.
There is one advantage that is the staffs are alumini of the same college.
Food provided by the mess is likely good

Dislikes

There is lot of writing work to do its so hard.
We want to maintain discipline in every inch of the campus
We want to dress like a gentleman going to the interview

Course Curriculum Overview

There is an english course and some other clubs that improves our personality language confident and the acedamics gives us a lot of knowledge rather than a job teaching method is good and the course duration is 4 years with lot of outdoor classes.

Class Size: 1000Course Fees: INR 70000 per year

Internships Opportunities

There is a club called rotaract club which offers project from outside companies to do as I am 1st year student I do not undergone any project but its a useful club that makes our resume much better for future purpose.

Fees and Financial Aid

There is not yearly fees we want to pay fees semester after semester.As I am first graduate my semster fees range from 15000 to 20000 and there is a community scholarship opportunity.My other batchmates those who not first graduate want to pay around 20000 to 25000. Scholarship provided by here is community reservation scholarship for merit students.

Campus Life

There is a event called muthamil vizha the wonderful event with lot of cultural event conducted for 2 days and pongal celebration club inauguration and many more events that gives joy and there is much more importance for sports by conducting sports day and inter college tournaments and facilities in our college is much more good.

Hostel Facilities

Facilities in room is somewhat good and food provided by them is awesome I stay in college hostel is you want PG or rent room its available easy in this area and the registration process is very simple as it is a government college fees is very low.

Hostel Fee: INR 45000 per year

Admission

I applied CIT,Chennai for computer science course its my 2nd choice I like forest very much and explore the forest. The admission process is through counseling and through entrance exam ICAR and 185 out of 200 cut is best to join the college.

Faculty

There is the new method called ward counseling for every 5 students there one staff to consult if there is any problem.I like all the staffs in the college their teaching caring and etc... there is lot of model test conducted by the staffs If we study hard we could crack the system.It is the wonderful course that relates what we expected.

Night Life

There is gym library with lot of books and food court offers food in low price and college timing is 7:30 am to 5:00 pm only sunday they allow outing there are some animal movement in campus so night time is not safe.

Other Applied Colleges

Chennai Institute of Technology - [CIT] | Bachelor of Engineering [BE] (Computer Science and Engineering)

Nit Trichy B.Sc. B.ed. student review

Likes

girls to boys ratio is 1:1 is we consider all three branches with some courses with more male while other having for female.more or less the ratio is near 1:1
the most important thing for you is there is close to zero discrimination for you , whether you want to join any club or perform anything you are equivalent to students with others bachelor degree
octagon and library are the two things which are good as library is considered the biggest library among all nit's while octagon having 800 computers for students.NSO ground is also well maintained with the beautiful mig fighter jet to take cool phot

Dislikes

for first years hostel are well maintained if compared with others but don't expect much from hostel atlast this is a government college.in first year 3 to 4 person sharing room are there which was build to carry 2 person.
Quant and entrepreneur thing is not there as you might expect by seeing the nirf 9 ranking but it is not zero .they are growing clubs like profNITT and Sigma are young and they could do better
curfew timing for girls are 9 or 9:30 pm i guess be it any year. for boys ,only freshers have curfew with timing 9:30 pm.other than that any student can't step outside the college after 10 pm without the sign out form.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose this course as maths is the mother of all science and quite related to other fields so it opens a lot of door for me like mba ,mtech ,phd or any other things. this course is specifically designed for becoming teachers so keep that in mind before taking this course as they are not flexible in changing curriculum or adding something for the sake of students as of now. also you will be having more working days compared to other courses with 80 percent mandatory attendance.after first sem you will get 1 week holiday and after 2nd sem you will get 50.days holiday and after first year you can expect 20 days holiday for winters and 50 days holiday for summers. you will get a lot of time to study for exams. before ct 1 you can expect 2 months and then atleast a month for ct 2 and endsems. cons are that you don't have the right to choose minor or electives like btech students.you have to compulsory study all three science .i.e. maths , physics, chemistry.

HIMT COLLEGE REVIEW

Likes

The faculties are very well experienced and there are captains who stay in the campus itself, so if there’s something we need they will be available all the time
The facilitieslike labs, ship in campus, DB tank facilities etc are top notch
The classrooms are fully air conditioned. There’s smart board. Overall everything is really good and also neat and clean

Dislikes

Galley food can improve a little and canteen is comparatively small for such a big campus
They are not conducting intra- college events and inter-college events is very less

Placement Experience:

Placements are really good in HIMT. I got placed in 1st year itself in MOLMI. All faculties try their best to prepare us for the placements and it shows in the placement interview also. Usually companies come for placements from 2nd year but there are some companies who want to take girl cadets 1st year itself. MOLMI, MOLTA etc came to our college for placements. After completion of the course, company will call for induction and accordingly they will call for joining the ship. For finishing the cadet ship , we have finish 12 months of sea time. After that a lot courses has to be done for appearing in 2 nd mates exam.
