Admission: The teachers at our college are really helpful and knowledgeable. They are well-educated and qualified. The exams at our college can be tough, ranging from moderate to difficult. The faculty in my department are pretty strict, but they push us to do our best.
Placement: Most students get placed in software and core jobs, like almost 90% of them. The average salary is around 5-6 LPA. Big companies like L&T, Oracle hire from here. About 75% of students do internships. They offer roles like electrical engineer, software engineer, and more. The college's placement record is pretty good.

Admission: The teachers here are awesome and chill. Most of them are great at teaching, but a few can be tough with grading. They stick to the rules for grading set by KTU and are fair. In the new 2024 system, the grading is different. It's out of 100 now 40 for internals and 60 for the exam. You need 24 to pass the written part and 50 overall to pass.
Placement: During our 4th year, which is the 7th semester, we get a shot at campus placements. Big companies like Amazon, Wipro, Infosys, and others come to hire students. There are over 200 companies making 2000+ job offers. The highest salary offered is around 33 LPA, with an average of 6-7 LPA. It's a great opportunity for us to kickstart our careers.
Campus: The ladies hostel has two blocks one new and one old. The old block is kinda run-down, but the new one is nice and has good facilities. The food in the mess is tasty and the place is kept clean. To get a room in the hostel, they look at how much money you make and how far you live from the college. It can be tough to get a room right away, so some students stay in private hostels or PGs at first.

Admission: The teachers here know their stuff, all with Ph.D. degrees. The course content is spot-on, and exams are challenging but fair. They really help you out when you need it. Plus, almost everyone passes like 97% of students!
Placement: The College of Engineering in Trivandrum rocks when it comes to placements in Kerala. Every department here gets good companies for placements. But the Computer Science department is the bomb with the best pay. In 2023, the highest pay was 15 LPA, while the average was 5 LPA.
Campus: The college has really awesome labs and you can get free Wi-Fi anywhere on campus. Plus, there's a gym, volleyball court, basketball court, and a cricket ground for staying active. The hostel serves up some tasty food too.

Admission: The teachers here are super helpful for teaching, training, and interviews. They make learning practical and fun with interactive classes. They are really good at solving problems too. The course matches what we need for the industry. The semester exams are tough, but if you study daily, it's all good. The pass rate was around 80%.
Placement: I really like this college! Almost all students get jobs after graduating 92% of them. Big companies like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, TCS, and Infosys hire from here. The highest salary you can get is 25 LPA, the lowest is 8 LPA, and on average it's 18 LPA. After doing this course, you can work as an Industry Liaison, Learning Manager, Business Consultant, Analyst, or in HR. Lots of good options!
Campus: The college set-up was top-notch for our field of study. The labs had everything we needed, from equipment to safety measures. There were cool extras like Wi-Fi, library, canteen, and a gym for us undergrads. The campus felt safe, and we could count on having nurses around in case of any trouble.

Admission: The teachers here are a mix - some are great, some not so much. But there are some real gems who are super helpful. They're all pretty smart, but not all of them are great at teaching. The courses are okay, but each semester is kinda short, only about 3-3.5 months. It's not too bad for me, but a lot of my friends find it tough.
Placement: About half of students land jobs after college, while others pursue more education or don't find jobs right away. The highest salary offered on campus was around 39 LPA, snagged by a senior. The lowest package might be around 4-5 LPA, I think. Texas is the top hiring company for our department.
Campus: The facilities and buildings are pretty average, nothing special. The Wi-Fi is super slow and the classrooms are just okay. It's not amazing, but it's not terrible either. I don't live in the college dorms, I stay off-campus as a paying guest. But from what I've heard from other students living on campus, the rooms are decent and the food is better than what you'd get at other places.

Admission: The teachers are really good and know their stuff. The classes have lots of assignments all the time. Exams are mostly okay, but the theory of structures is tough. Keep an eye on that one. Don't expect too much. It's like a roller coaster with ups and downs. But overall, it's better than a lot of private colleges.
Placement: I'm not too sure about placements, but I've heard they're just okay for our course. Placements seem a bit low for our group. Around 15 out of 40 students land jobs each year. I'd say about 30% of students get placed, but in architecture, most of us aren't really aiming for jobs after graduation.
Campus: The college campus is pretty old, but the facilities are cool. I live off-campus, but I've heard mixed things about the hostel some parts are nice, others not so much. The washrooms in my department could be better, but the classrooms are fine. There's a department library and store, but it takes forever to get stuff from there.

Admission: The new curriculum is a big improvement with fresh skills to learn. They added more practical subjects which is great. The teachers all come from top colleges and really know their stuff. Some are good at teaching, others not so much. But the curriculum does help us learn skills that are useful in the industry. Haven't taken the semester exam yet, but it's scheduled for December 31, 2024.
Placement: I'm taking Electrical and Computer Engineering at my college, and it's a new course that started in 2024 with around 60 students. Since we're the first batch, we don't know much about placements yet. People are hoping that with our computer skills, we'll get better jobs than students in other courses like Electrical and Electronics. Right now, companies are hiring based on our individual skills, so it's hard to predict. Our department is Electrical, and big companies like Oracle, Schneider, and Texas Instruments come for placements. They offer an average salary of 15-20 Lacs per year. So far, one student got a job at Oracle, a few at Schneider, and many at TCS. We're still waiting for more top companies to come to our college.
Campus: The classrooms don't have Wi-Fi yet, but the library has it. The labs work fine, but they could use some upgrades. Classrooms are okay. I like both the department library and the college library. They're good places to study.

Admission: The teachers really know their stuff and are great at explaining things. The syllabus is kinda outdated, but they've got a new one for freshers now. Some students don't put in the effort, so the pass rate is just okay. The semester tests can be tough, but they're not impossible.
Placement: Our college is seeing more IT companies hiring students, but core companies are not as interested. The last batch (2022) had over 50 placements, but this year (2023) there are fewer. The highest salary offered is 13 LPA, the lowest is around 3.5 to 4 LPA, and the average is 7 LPA. Our course mainly focuses on management, like banking and supply chain.
Campus: The faculty and labs here are really great. I'm a day scholar, so I can't say much about the hostels. College stays open from 9 AM to 9 PM, which is cool 'cause we can work on stuff even after classes. The labs and library are open for us to use. The food in the hostel is tasty, and everyone seems to enjoy it.

Admission: The teachers at this college are awesome! They really go out of their way to help us students in every way possible. They make sure even the struggling students get the support they need. The exams can be tough, but the teachers are always there to guide us through it. Thanks to these amazing teachers, a lot of students pass with flying colors.
Placement: A lot of students end up in the same classes, but it's cool 'cause we get good job offers here. The average salary package is around 7 lakhs and the highest one is 40 lakhs. Most students also get internships at big MNCs, like 80% of us do.
Campus: The campus is well-organized and everything, like Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and the canteen, is kept in good shape. The food in the canteen tastes good and is of good quality. Unfortunately, the sports facilities are lacking because there's no proper ground for games. On the bright side, the medical facilities are helpful and good for students.
