B.Tech. in Civil Engineering - Batch of 2021

3Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

Recommended to join some other departments.

Placements: CSG talents, Navartis, Goodwin recruiting, and Davron exclusively sourcing talents from civil engineering. They would hire 22 to 30% of students randomly. Top recruiters were paid off yearly for smooth running of the drive process. Also, placement team arranged skill development class.

Infrastructure: Learners from multiple regions of the country were continuing their academic journey at IIT Palakkad. The overall food cooked in the canteen and hostel areas won't meet the expectations of the students. So, most of the hostel students shifted somewhere and vacated the hostel areas.

Faculty: Overall strength of the students in our department was 32 which was above 40 on the previous year. Teachers were so manipulative and frustrating, especially in the time of fee dues. Teachers won't allow us to write model exams when we had spending fee payment. Teachers were more dedicated to the higher authorities of college.
