The best college for average students.
Placements: Approximately 80% of the students are placed by this college. The highest package is around 40 LPA, and the lowest package is around 3 LPA. Here, most students are placed in 6 to 10 LPA. The top recruiters are TCS and Texas Instruments. Last year, 14 students were placed in Air India for 10 LPA. Around 90-98% students got internships from Wipro, TCS, IBM, ABB and Accenture. The top roles offered by the course are Software Developer, Data Scientist and Data Analyst.
Infrastructure: The college offers comparatively good lab facilities and other infrastructure. The college has a very good library, which contains a large no of books that are helpful for academics and industries. The college Men's hostel is well-maintained by the officials and students and offers good food.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful and teach in a good manner. The curriculum is not quite relevant. But it offers industry-ready courses like AI and data Science. The internal exams are quite tough, but the end-of-semester exams are a bit simpler. It is quite easy to pass the sem exam rather than the internal exams.
Other: The students in the college organise so many events to enjoy, and other tech fests for students to build their profile.

It is a good college in Kerala with good placements.
Placements: I am currently studying, and approximately 80% of students get placed from this college. The highest package is around 40 LPA, and the lowest package is around 3 LPA. Most students get placed in the 6–10 LPA range. The top recruiters are TCS and Texas Instruments. Last year, 14 students got placed in Air India for 10 LPA. Around 90–98% of students get internships from Wipro, TCS, IBM, ABB, and Accenture. The top roles offered by the course are Software Developer, Data Scientist, and Data Analyst in Computer Science.
Infrastructure: Facilities of the college are average. All kinds of labs are available, but they are not well maintained or furnished. The main hostel is excellent. The mess is controlled by students themselves, so the food is excellent. The rooms are well maintained, and the monthly rate is affordable for everyone. A football ground, volleyball court, basketball court, and badminton court are also available. The ambience of the hostel is very nice.
Faculty: Faculty members are well-qualified and have good experience. Some of them are graduates from IIT. They are very kind to students. The curriculum is okay, not very nice. The exams are a little difficult. For a semester, there are two series exams and an end-semester exam.

The curriculum is old, but campus life is the best.
Placements: In 2025, already 40 to 50% of 4th-year students get placed with packages of about 10 to 20 LPA. The highest package is around 30+ LPA, and the lowest is 4 to 6 LPA. The average package for Computer Science is nearly 8–9 LPA. The top recruiting companies are TCS and Texas. Each year, 70 to 80% of students get placed in my course from companies like TCS, Wipro, Infosys, Deloitte, Oracle, Amadeus, etc. Around 40% of students get internships in companies like Oracle, IBM, TCS, etc. Top roles include software engineer, app technician, and data analyst.
Infrastructure: There is free Wi-Fi in every class. All computer labs are fully air-conditioned and work from 9 am to 9 pm. There is a library in each department and also a technical library for the entire college. The hostel is above average. There are workers to clean washrooms, and free Wi-Fi is available. The mess and canteen are very good, providing the best food at low cost. There are football, volleyball, and various other grounds. Medical services are near the college and easily accessible.
Faculty: Teachers are good and qualified. They clear all our doubts. They teach using boards, PPTs, or projectors. Seminar hall classes are also conducted sometimes. The course curriculum is a bit old, but I personally don't appreciate it. KTU curriculum is the best. Semester exams are easier, but internal exams are of good quality and standard.
Other: I like programming and coding, so I chose this course. I wish the curriculum were more updated and efficient. Events, fests, and other extracurricular activities are good and enjoyable.

A balanced and honest review of CET Trivandrum.
Placements: CET Trivandrum offers good placements with many top recruiters visiting the campus and branches like CSE and ECE receiving strong offers. While the overall placement rate is high the average package is moderate so students aiming for top roles need to put in extra effort. Overall CET is a solid choice for placements if you actively use the opportunities provided.
Infrastructure: CET Trivandrum has a spacious campus with well equipped classrooms labs and a strong library though some areas could be modernized. The hostels offer a decent and student friendly living environment but the buildings and common areas will benefit from better maintenance. Food quality is okay but not very consistent.
Faculty: The faculty at CET Trivandrum is generally knowledgeable and supportive especially in core subjects though teaching quality can vary across departments. The curriculum is strong but slightly traditional and could use more industry oriented updates. Exams are fair and structured provided you stay consistent with the coursework.
Other: I chose this course because I have always been interested in how things work and wanted a field that combines problem solving creativity and real world application. The best part is the strong mix of theory practical labs and projects that help build real technical and analytical skills. Overall it aligns well with my interests and long term goals.

if you can manage studies on your own and need more exposure. Many extracurricular activities.
Placements: Though the actual percentage is not known only some students got places. The highest package offered is about 35LPA from Qualcomm and the lowest package offered is 3 to 4LPA. Many students got from TCS. One student got internship at Oracle not much more is known. Do not know about other roles but SDE is the most popular.
Infrastructure: Labs library is top class. Wi-Fi connection is not available everywhere and is slow. The infrastructure much of it is old but still strong write desks and iron chairs for students and projectors are old to but still work though not perfectly. Hostel is privately arranged. No sports and games not much medical facilities though many hospital are nearby. Food is good. Other facilities of hostel are good.
Faculty: Most teachers are helpful qualified and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is excellent for some teachers and not that good for others. Curriculum is relevant. Sem exams are generally easier but series exams are more difficult. Pass percentage is good.
Other: Top college in Kerala is available via KEAM so I chose it. The first sem syllabus covers so many things that might not be useful like Chemistry engineering and graphics that take up a lot of time. No college organized events but events organized by seniors are vibrant crowded and colorful.
