CUSAT: Students' Opinion

AI-Generated Summary based on 16 Reviews

The BTech degree course at Cochin University of Science and Technology (CUSAT) requires candidates to clear the CUSAT CAT entrance exam. Results arrive in late May, with the admission process running from mid-June to August. Admission is rank-based, requiring ranks within the top 2000 for general categories and top 1000 for competitive branches like Computer Science. Nine admission rounds, including three spot rounds, are conducted, with document verification and fee payment following seat confirmation.

The faculty is well-qualified, but there are concerns about the lack of permanent staff and inconsistencies in teaching quality. Fees vary by residency and category, with Keralites paying approximately Rs. 21,000 per semester and non-Keralites around Rs. 45,000, while NRI students pay up to Rs. 60,170. The annual fee is about Rs. 85,000, with hostel fees charged separately. Placement opportunities are strong in non-core fields like Computer Science and Safety Engineering, achieving nearly 100% placement rates.

Companies offer packages between 3.5 lakh to 28 lakh, with an average package of 12 lakh per annum. Core branches face limited opportunities with packages between 3-5 lakh. The placement process begins in the 6th semester. Scholarships and financial assistance are primarily available for Keralite students and include programs like E-Grantz and MOMA. Non-Keralite students largely depend on education loans. Despite scholarship opportunities, students must be proactive in their applications.

CUSAT: 2 Answered Questions

Which course should I prefer in the CUSAT with a rank of 1,500 (general), and what courses are better in the CUSAT?

Anirudh JoshiStudied at Cochin University of Science and Technology

Your options at CUSAT will vary depending on your domicile. If you are from Kerala, you can expect to get almost any branch at CUSAT with your rank. In that case, opt for Ship Tech or Safety and Fire Engineering. CS is also a good option.

If you belong to some other state, you won’t get Ship Tech or Safety and Fire. You can get the second one during spot round, if you are lucky enough. So, you’ll be left with EEE, ECE, Civil, IT, CS and Mechanical as your options. Out of these, CS and ECE are the best choices at CUSAT.

Consider your options carefully, and make the decision accordingly.

Can I get admission for integrated courses in CUSAT if I have a rank 930?

Sreeja PrasadCochin University Of Science and Technology (2017)

Unless you have some special reservation, your chances of getting admission into the MSc. integrated courses in CUSAT with rank 930 are quite low. The integrated MSc. program was started by CUSAT in 2018. Even with minimum advertising, almost all the seats were filled by students within rank 500 that year.

Only 60 seats are available for this program and each student has to study Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Statistics during the first four semesters. You can choose your specialization for the 5th sem based on your marks in these subjects. If you are planning on appearing for the exam again, I would recommend you to work really hard. In 2018, within rank 200, around 29-30 seats got filled and within rank 500, more than 55 seats got filled. The seats are expected to be filled within rank 200 in the coming years. The exam for B.Tech and integrated MSc. is the same, but you need to register separately for both the programs and the rank list for both is also separate.

Basically, with rank 930 you can not get admission into CUSAT for an integrated MSc. You must maintain a rank lesser than or equal to 200-500 to get an admission without any difficulty.
