B.Tech. in Chemical Engineering - Batch of 2025

4.2

Has the best college life experience.

Placements: Till now in this academic year, the chemical engineering department has received significant recruitment from companies like Hyundai, Sud Chemie, and MRF Tyres. The popular recruiters are Reliance Ltd., TCS, Sud Chemie, MRF Tyres, Federal Bank, etc. Hyundai led the recruitment drive, securing placements for nine students, four at TCS, two at Sud Chemie, and three at MRF Tires so far. More placement programs are on the way this academic year. The college also provides information about internship opportunities. Some notable companies that offered internships to students include Veolia Water Technologies, FACT, KMML, HOCL, etc.

Infrastructure: The college has Wi-Fi availability, but it can be accessed only through a laptop, and certain procedures are required to access the free Wi-Fi. Our department has access to a separate library, and we have a KV Narayanan Reading Room. All the major books related to the course are available in the department library. The labs are efficient and provide the necessary facilities to do experiments correctly and efficiently. Some labs in chemical engineering depth seem faculty, but necessary works are carried out for their repair. Classrooms are good, there are enough facilities, and smart classrooms are available in every class. There are seminar halls and mini seminar halls also available in the department. The hostel has good facilities, like a spacious room where every student has a separate table and chair and space for their things. Mess is not that good, but activities are done to improve the food at college. The government mess's food is decent, but the ladies hostel has a private mess too, and that food is not that good, so provisions are being taken by the college to curb this problem. There are free medical facilities available on the college campus. A large number of students excel through sports and games at the college, and they are provided with good training before the event. There is a physical education department, which has a free gym too. Athletics is not that top-tier here, but other sports like volleyball. Softball, cricket, kho, basketball, football, handball, etc. Training and competitions with other colleges are happening. And our college is also a tight participant in sports.

Faculty: Yes, the teachers are helpful and qualified. Teaching quality is also good. The course is relevant. The first 3 or 4 seem teachers teaching is not that efficient, and of course, it depends on the subject and also the willingness of the students to study. Towards the 5th and 6th semesters, we are made to properly concentrate on our studies. Internships and all should be researched by the students themselves, and yes, of course, the faculty is ready to give guidance, and the labs and industrial visits can make the students industry-ready. The semester exam difficulty is average, and this also depends on the subjects. For example, the IPC question paper last time was difficult, but MTO's was easy, and the evaluation is highly dependent on the difficulty of the exam. Our batch's last semester exam pass percentage is about 80%.

Other: GEC-Thrissur has the best campus life. There are several activities here. Whether it's a teaching festival, sports, art, or politics, everything is celebrated at the college. There is active politics on this campus, which ensures that no student has to face any difficulties. The presence of a strong political wing (SFI) in our college ensures that all the problems in the college are being solved immediately. The peers here are amazing, and there are several clubs here, which give a wide range of opportunities. The main event in the college is the tech fest conducted by the college union known as Dyuthi, and it's really amazing.

Good infrastructure and campus life.

Placements: About 40-60% of students get placement. The highest package is about 15L p. a and the lowest is not specified. Here top recruiters are coco cola, microsoft etc. Internship companies are BPCL-KR, Fact ltd etc. Top roles are environment engineering, energy engineering, chemical plant manager etc.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available in campus, labs are moderate and classrooms are also good. Library is great. In hostel, it's good but it's depends on students that how the hostel is. When we talk about sports and games, it's great and they have a good canteen too.

Faculty: Teachers vary, some are good but some are not enough. But, with the facilities, it's easy to pass. Yes the course curriculum is relevant and we can feel it from 2nd year. First half exams are moderate and becomes tougher when ends. About pass percentage, it's not sure but I think it's 60-70%.

Other: It's a good course and I choose it because I got seat in this course. To improve, they may add some practical teaching methods seen in foreign education system. About events and fest, there would be great events and fest in campus, it would be worthy.

The most wonderful institution.

Placements: On average, 70% of the students in this college got placed this year. An average of 7 LPA was offered to chemical engineering students, and the lowest package was 4 LPA, while the highest was 20 LPA. Many companies accept students, such as Infosys, Puram, etc. Over 90% of students got internships in top companies and industries. Offered jobs included managers, industry supervisors, etc.

Infrastructure: The college is about 75 acres. It consists of many blocks for each department. We can access wifi in any area of the college. Each department has its own lab. All classrooms have projectors or smart screens. The college provides great support for sports activities. The food provided in the college is very tasty and budget-friendly.

Faculty: All the faculty members are well-educated and well-mannered. They teach very well. This year, our syllabus was changed, and it is much more effective and easy to handle. KTU decided to make every student industry-ready. The new syllabus is easier than the previous one, and I think everyone can pass the exam with no difficulty.

Other: I like chemical engineering and its aspects.

A good college, definitely the best option for pursuing Chemical Engineering after NITC.

Placements: The college has decent placements. Companies like L&T, Tata, and Reliance are the usual top recruiters. However, placements depend on the skills of the student. Most interviews include basic fundamental questions from high school and higher secondary level. In chemical engineering, topics like heat exchange and distillation columns are very important.

Infrastructure: The physical labs are in pretty poor condition. The digital labs, including computer labs, are better but still not the best. The research labs are excellent. In the regular labs, most equipment is decades old and barely works. The hostel is good, and the food and room facilities together cost up to Rs. 3,000 per month. Hostel admission depends on income and distance from home.

Faculty: Teachers are actually quite good. Most faculty members are knowledgeable and supportive if students approach them. The course alone does not make students industry-ready. Students need to connect with senior professors and do internships in companies like BPCL, FACT, TCC, and HOCL. Semester exams are generally easy if students study even a small portion of the syllabus. The pass percentage is above 80%.

Other: I chose this course mainly due to my interest in chemistry. I initially planned to go for B.Sc. Chemistry, but then I thought engineering would be better since I can branch out to multiple areas of expertise, basically making my career options more versatile. The best part of the course is that the semester is quite fast. We are forced to figure things out in a short span of time. The main thing I am frustrated with the condition of labs and the exam evaluation by KTU. The college conducts a cultural fest called Dyuthi.
