Good academics, and peaceful atmosphere.
Placements: 78.58 percent students got placed and others went to higher studies, and others went to government UPSC job preparation. One got into IAM. The highest package is around 14 LPA and the lowest is about 5 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Tata Elxsi, TCS, Qburst, UST Global, etc. 70 percent of students got internships in various companies like CDAC, Infosys, etc. The students get all major positions.
Infrastructure: Actually, the infrastructure is comparatively less, that's the only downgrade. But the college offers all the necessary infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, libraries, everything. Actually, the college lacks a men's hostel; no men's hostel is there due to land shortage, but it has a ladies' hostel. Sports and games coaches are there, but it lacks a ground. Mess and canteens are good.
Faculty: Academically, it's the best college. The teachers are well-qualified and determined. They complete the syllabus before the exam. They are very senior faculty members. The course curriculum is relevant and it makes the student industry-ready because it follows project-based learning. Due to good teaching, my semester exams are easy, and the pass percentage is above 90 percent.
Other: I choose this course because it is so relevant in this IT industry boom period, the AI boom period. Nothing to improve, everything is fine. Events, fests are soo good, the campus crowd are good. We get a good connectivity with various people. You know, the college is in the heart of the capital of Kerala, Trivandrum, soo its amazing. Campus surroundings are soo good, clean. So many extra-curricular activities are there.

Excellent faculty, poor infrastructure, no events, fests, and extra activities. Average placement.
Placements: We have a very average placement. The packages range from 4 to 9 LPA, usually. Most are around 4-5 LPA. Not the best, as it feels low considering the efforts students put in. The main role that is hired is an associate engineer. Most companies look for good programming skills and communication.
Infrastructure: Very poor infrastructure. The college is smaller than a school. They only have a ladies' hostel. No means hostel, and there won't be one as there is no more area to expand. Labs have old computers that are difficult to work with, as they are really slow. It is a very small college, so there is not much space for anything. No playground, too.
Faculty: Teachers are the best. Everyone is really helpful and knows their domain really well. Teachers are really friendly and really care about students. The course curriculum is trash, as in the first two semesters, students from every branch have to learn the same thing, whether it's relevant or not. And the syllabus is also very outdated. No real application-level skills are taught.
Other: The course is average. But still couldn't be really better and useful. The only good thing about the course is that the core subjects are relevant. I wish that the syllabus would be updated to the new technology. No events, no fest, very poor campus crowd. Very small campus, so no place for any activities.

True Beauty of GEC Barton Hill.
Placements: In the academic year 2023-2024, we were able to bring 69 companies to our campus, which is significantly greater than previous years. This includes public sector companies like Bharat Electronics LTD (BEL), which came to our campus for the first time. The highest package for B.Tech students was offered by BEL (11.6 LPA) and for M.Tech students, it was offered by Federal Bank (12 LPA). The number of students placed was 132. There were students who got multiple job offers (up to 6). The average LPA offered by companies was about 4.5 LPA. Tata Elxsi was the largest recruiter, with 44 students placed.
Infrastructure: We have labs for various purposes and digital classrooms with projectors in each and every class. The college provides free Wi-Fi to students and also allocates space for various class activities. There are many technical and non-technical clubs and societies in the college.
Faculty: The teachers and other faculty members are really supportive of anything you want to do in the college, whether it may be technical or non-technical, especially the IT department faculty. If we consider pass percentage, our IT department has the highest pass percentage in KTU.
Other: Since Information Technology is a field of rapid development, I decided to take the first step in exploring it, which led me to the best college that offers IT in Kerala under KTU.

A small college but a good one
Placements: Around 70 percent of the students are getting placed. But the thing is, LPA is very low. 7 LPA (Lacs Per Annum) was the highest package offered for the information technology branch this year and in the whole college too, and it was offered by CARESTACK. The average package offered by the company is up to 4.5 LPA. Companies like UST, Tata ELXSI, TCS, Speridean Technologies, SADA, Qburst, Infosys, and Federal Bank have come. Internships are not offered by the college; we have found them on our own in those same companies I mentioned above, and we can apply for any MNC or work under the Kerala Startup Mission.
Infrastructure: Every batch of students has their own classroom with a television and projector; the classrooms are good. Campus Wi-Fi is provided to every student after they have given the request for accessing Wi-Fi. Lab subjects will be done in the specific labs, and there are around 75 systems in each lab that can accommodate the entire class. 75 is the intake of students in each batch of the department every year. There is a department library in the building near the network security lab and a college library where there are plenty of books available. The study area in the library is open until 9:30 p.m. and closes on Sunday.
The hostel is not fancy, but it is not too bad. There are four-person rooms, a dormitory, and dormitory and also a study hall. There are two study lockers in each room and different cupboards for everyone in the room. Mess food is literally a bad one. Sometimes we get worms from sambar, so usually I don't eat it. And some day we have a festival, and it's good. Overall, the food will be rated 5/10. There is a small gym inside the hostel. The hospital is just 5 minutes away from college. Currently, there is a tug-of-war team and badminton team operation in the hostel, and their requirements are met.
Faculty: The teachers in the IT department are so helpful and polite, and all of them are qualified professors and three guest lecturers. Some of the teachers are well-trained to guide us in the right direction, and some of them are just going through the syllabus. The curriculum or syllabus is good, but it is so far from the real world. We can do internships to make a bridge. The semester exams are handled by the APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University. We have to get 40 out of 100 to pass the exam, but the internal marks are also very important, and they are out of 50. The exam level is moderate to tough. Read text to perform better in exams.
Other: I love to create changes in the world. And I think engineering is a better option to do that. This is a college where you get many platforms to show off your skills and grow up. Technical Fest: Aagneya
Cultural Fest: Sargam
Scholarships: any offered by the government of India and also state scholarships.

It is a college with a small campus, but it has great faculty members and placements.
Placements: Our college has a great record regarding placements. In the 2018-22 IT batch, every student got 1–3 offers. The lowest salary package offered was about 3 LPA, whereas the highest was about 14 LPA. Not only the IT department, but other departments also excelled in placements.
Infrastructure: In academic institutions, libraries play an important role in the dissemination of knowledge. The ambience of the library reflects the quality of the education imparted by Government Engineering College, Barti (GECBH). The campus has recognised the importance of the academic vibrations required in the library and has been growing in this direction right from its very inception. The current location of the central library is well planned.
Faculty: Every semester, we have 2 internal series exams of 50 marks each. The internal marks are uploaded to KTU site. The series exam marks are rounded to 12.5 each, and 10 marks are for attendance. 15 marks are for assignments. KTU conducts exams. 40% is the pass percentage.

A great college with great vibe.
Placements: Students pursuing information Technology have a high chance of getting placements at reputed companies, every student of 2018-2023 batch received 2 offers each. In addition, we are the only college in Kerala to collaborate with Mercedes Benz I. e ADAM a course for post-graduation (M.Tech) with three training cars.
Infrastructure: Hostel available only for ladies so if you're a boy you'll have to either opt for Paying guest or a group of people like you and your friends can choose for a house available on rent, which is much more affordable since rent isn't too much, now the hard part is cooking and cleaning that you'll have to manage.
Faculty: It's a government college it overcomes every stereotype related to government colleges by providing the best educational facilities and the latest technology, we have well-equipped information Technology lab, mechanical lab, electrical and electronics lab and also a civil lab. The students are made industry ready, the semester exams might turn difficult for you if you decide to learn at the end moment. Last year the pass percentage was 87%.
Other: Even though we have a very small campus, our campus has a great vibe and a great bond with every other department.

For the last 2 years, more than half of final years students were placed in more than 10 companies, mostly in IT companies. Major companies were TCS, QBurst, Capgemini, Mercedes and more. Salary packages ranged from 15k-25K. So, there are fewer opportunities in EEE.
