Nice memorable college.

Placements: Civil engineering has few placement options because it is more relevant in the government field, but the college still provides good placement opportunities. Even students with supplies are considered for these placements. This college is really in front for placements.

Faculty: The faculty members are so qualified, and they are really pleasant with us. They are well-trained professionals, and they know the correct syllabus. The teachers are really friendly with us students, and they really support us through everything. It is actually quite simple compared to other courses. B.Tech is tough, but I feel like civil engineering is quite easy to pass the examinations. Of course, KTU published our question paper, so yes, that is one problem. They only publish the date of the examination just before.

Other: I love this college because the education system is, of course, good, but the festivals there are amazing. This college gives us an amazing nightlife.

Good infrastructure to study and experience life.

Placements: I am pursuing civil engineering in my college. The placement offers coming into the college are from various MNCs as well as many private companies. At least 40 students are placed in a year, with most of them receiving offer letters from the companies with a minimum of 10 LPA per year.

Infrastructure: I was a day scholar, but my friends said the hostels need to be improved. However, other facilities such as food and Wi-Fi are very good. The canteen is also well maintained and offers cheap prices. The library of the department as well as the college is easily accessible.

Faculty: The teachers are well educated and always try to help us, but time constraints make it difficult. The academic curriculum has a very tight schedule. Both the theory and practical classes should have less time to complete the courses. The exams are a little bit difficult but can sometimes be very easy.

Friendly campus; "GEC Thrissur.

Placements: We have a placement cell, and pre-placement classes are organized. Most IT companies come for recruitment, but we also have a few core companies. Each branch has its own core companies, and these students can also sit for IT companies. The number of students selected for each is limited, and tough competition has to be faced. Also, remember that you have to fulfill the eligibility criteria for sitting for placement.

Infrastructure: GECT has a basic infrastructure with an environment-friendly atmosphere. The campus is filled with greenery. The department and hostel buildings are just average and satisfy our basic needs. Every student cannot be accommodated in the college hostel; only a minimum number can be accommodated, so the rest have to stay in private hostels.

Faculty: The classes are well handled by the teachers. Every person may not be the best, but they still try their best, and many doctorate professors are available at the college. Labs are available, and sufficient lab technicians are also there. There will be internal and external lab exams. Two internal exams are carried out before the last semester exam.

Other: GECT is a ragging free campus. You got many people to support you in there.
