Course Curriculum Overview

3

Our semesters are not long so we end up running to complete the syllabus in less than 3 months. So students end up learning stuff on their own. There are 2 series exams in a semester along with lab internals after which we have our end semester exams and external labs.

Placement Experience

4

Placements are fine but not that great. For our department I'd say its fine since its IT but for other departments there arent many options so they end up sitting for IT placements as well. There are a decent amount of offers some students opt for higher studies or off campus placements.

Fees and Financial Aid

I am on tuition fee waiver based on merit, so I am excempted from a large amount from the approximately 10000 yearly fee. There was a caution deposit at the time of admission. Scholorships applied by students are usually NSP and Pragati and a few other government funded schemes and there are dedicated sections within the office that direct students throughout the application process. There are a few other schemes like laptop scholorships if you belong to economically weaker sections and so on.

Campus Life

4

Due to no standing college committee due to lack of elections for the past 3 years there havent been events. But before that our college had hosted a large college fest which was one one of the reason why a lot of students opted our college in the first place. Sports does happen once a year. Library is great. There are a lot of technical clubs and startups as well.

Hostel Facilities

3

Only ladies hostel at this time. So men stay at locations close by which are mostly just 100 meters away or like at max 1 km away. Mess food is subpar but its livable. Hostel rooms are fine and there are dorms as well.

Admission

I didnt apply to many others but ours is well known for acad3mic excellence so that is one of the reasons. Also the location is very good since its very close to the hospitals and malls and many other landmarks of our state. The eligibility was KEAM.

Faculty

4

The faculty are very approachable especially IT department and have always been very progressive and supportive of our endeavours. So there are no favourites. The pass percentage is the highest in our department with only a few students with more than 2 backlogs.

Night Life

3

Nightlife is probably not a thing as much since the college closes by 9:30. There are a lot of locations within the campus all named so its hard to point out one. Every corner has a name. There is a canteen and theres a store within the college for convenience.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is the worst. Teachers rush through the portions so that they can finish at the earliest. It may be because the university has a unjustifiable timetable. There is very little practicals given. The ones that are given are just for namesake.

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.

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.
