College of Engineering Cherthala Review.
Placements: About half of the students from a batch are placed yearly in companies like Infosys, Wipro, and Suntech, etc., which are not product-based companies, but rather service-based. So, viewing from the perspective of placements, not a lot of good companies are there for recruiting. Even though the placement process is hard, there is a placement cell which prepares students for recruitment.
Infrastructure: I would say the infrastructure is somewhat okay for an institution, and it contains necessary facilities like a library, canteen, toilets for both men and women, sick rooms, labs, classrooms with projectors, Wi-Fi, playground, etc. As the hostel is near the college, students can use the canteen for food and the library to study.
Faculty: Teachers are well qualified, and knowledgeable and know how to teach, but the student-to-teacher ratio is about 1:65, so it might create some issues for attention. The course, is relevant, but as the duration of the course is much less per semester, the students must focus on the subject with exams in mind, which reduces their knowledge to master that paper.
Other: I chose this course as I liked computer science from my childhood and wanted to understand it from a low-level perspective. If I were to improve the course, I would like to implement project-based learning and evaluation rather than exams, which don't evaluate a student throughout.

College of Engineering Cherthala review.
Placements: The training and placement cell does an excellent job in preparing students for placement, and it's working well. Around 70 or 80 students who completed their courses in 2024 got placed in different companies, and many third-year students are receiving offers. The highest package offered was around 20 LPA, and the minimum is 4 LPA. TCS and UST Global are some of the recruiting companies. As a computer science and engineering student, I've seen most of my peers placed as software engineers, web developers, etc. Some also found placements in other fields.
Infrastructure: My college has almost all the necessary facilities, including proper labs, a library, washrooms, and clean classrooms. The college is large, spread over 25 acres, with ample space for students to relax. The labs have all the required equipment, and the computer labs are excellent. The library is well-stocked and allows students to take printouts. It's also a great place for group study. Classrooms are clean and functional. Students can access Wi-Fi through captive portals. I'm not a hosteller, but I've visited the hostel, and it has good facilities. The canteen food is clean, tasty, and offers variety. Other items like books, pens, and pencils are also available. Sports grounds are available for football, volleyball, and badminton. Medical rooms are available with beds for students to rest.
Faculty: All the teachers in our college teach very well. They cover almost 95% of the topics in depth, even if they miss a few classes. The faculty members are well-qualified, with a minimum of 2-3 years of experience. Everything related to academics is well-planned, organized, and executed. The difficulty of semester exams depends on the student's effort. The college prepares students for all kinds of challenges.
Other: I chose this college because I studied in an IHRD school and was impressed by their management. IHRD places prime importance on academics, which helps students achieve high grades. At the same time, they conduct various activities to ensure the overall development of students. This college provides complete freedom for students.

The college has a pass percentage above 95%.
Placements: About 95% of students from this batch were placed in different companies. Companies like Razorpay, Technologies, 6D Technology, etc. hire during this year. I also think the students placed in these companies are offered good packages. I think the starting salary was somewhere like 50–70k.
Infrastructure: There are different hostels for each year's students. The food in some hostels is provided by the hotels near them. The boys from the hostel play football almost daily on college grounds. There are like 4 or 5 hostels. They are close to the college. The Wi-Fi is bad .
Faculty: The staff is great and the teachers actually know what they are doing, except for some. I don't really think the students are industry-ready until the 3rd year, though. I felt like only the 5th semester was a bit tough. There are some teachers who care about us.
Other: I chose this course because I was interested in it. There aren't many events going on. Most of the events are conducted by the students themselves.

An average college has low academic standards and placement.
Placements: There is an average placement, but salary packages are low; the average salary per year is about 2–3 LPA. The major companies are TCS Teachers Book, etc. There are almost 30 percent of students who will get placement. The highest package in college history is 16 LPA by rapzazor company in 2020. placement sometimes goes to 7 LPA also.
Infrastructure: The main positive of this college is that it has good infrastructure. There are lot of computer labs with high facilities, as well as a mechanical lab, electrical lab, electronics lab, etc. Lab facilities are very standard. The faculty members are also nice. The academic structure is bit tough. There is a hostel facility provided by our college. Every year, there are separate hostels. The hostel food is not upto to par; it is below average. Sport facilities are very good.
Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified. They are willing to help in any condition. But due to the tight schedule, some are unable to cover the topics. The course has a maximum 4 months of classes per semester and 1 month for exams. The semester exam is not that difficult for getting a pass mark, but for high marks, you need to study hard.
Other: I chose this college because for my KEAM rank, it is the best college. The college has higher academic facilities, and the sports facilities are also good. Very nice friendly enjoyable college campus. There are lot of events that occur, such as college day, arts festival, sports festivals, game competitions, etc.
