The happy Malnad, turning point of your life.

Placements: Our college has good placement, very good companies will approach, it all depends on students if they work hard, surely they get placed. Top companies for our course include Infosys, Wipro, Ultratech, and TCS, which are some of the companies listed above, and are excellent companies.

Infrastructure: As you know, Civil is the hardware course. Here, you get to know about how buildings are built, how the loads are distributed among the buildings, the concentration of materials used in a building, etc. Overall, the course I have chosen is the interesting course that I personally love.

Faculty: There are different faculty members for each subject that they will be taking, faculty members are well educated, and the majority are holding double degrees, so this helps a lot to gain knowledge and advice. They are very kind to students. Exams are easy if we study well.

Good infrastructure, supportive faculty, decent placement with scope for improvement.

Review of MCE - Malnad College of Engineering.

Placements: I am currently in the 2nd year, and I am sharing my experience. Regarding placements, the minimum package for internships or placements are around 7 to 10 LPA.

Infrastructure: The college provides Wi-Fi connections for students. Wi-Fi is high-speed and available 24/7. The library is inside the college campus and has a lot of books, which are divided by branch. Watchmen do not allow entry to the college without showing an ID card. The college has three main gates.

Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified and well educated. They help students become industry-ready and learn extra skills through extra classes. Exams are difficult, and semester examinations are also difficult.

Other: I am in the second year of Information Science and Engineering. I apply for scholarships. The college conducts events and fests yearly and month-wise.

Review of MCE - Malnad College of Engineering.

Placements: We are the last batch in our branch, as placements go down, especially for CS-related fields, due to recession and AI automation. Placements are now at their lowest. This year, only 3-4 students get offers, with an average of 4-5 LPA. Companies like TCS, Wipro, and Infosys are top recruiters, and all are service-based companies.

Infrastructure: The library is decent, but full of old books. Wi-Fi is available, and you have to register to get student Wi-Fi. Classrooms are decent with projectors. Mess is not large, so it gets overcrowded at break time. The sports and games facilities are average. The ground is not good and not well-maintained.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful. They clarify doubts, but the teaching method is not good as they just continuously run the PPT. They do not use the board frequently, especially for subjects like Java and OS. The old curriculum is not relevant in this AI era. Semester exams are difficult. They make 2 papers, one from the branch and the other from another college. Usually, the external papers are hard, and the college papers are medium.

Other: I come here because I do not get CS. I am interested in CS because I love programming. The course focuses on old theory, not relevant to industry-standard skills. They must improve that. They do fests like Jamboree and all, it is well organised, and there are many activities to participate in.

Satisfied with my college and the facilities provided. Good infrastructure.

Placements: 30%-40% of students got placed from my course. The highest package is 6.5 LPA, the lowest is 4.5 LPA, and the average is 5.5 LPA. The top recruiting company is Schneider Electric. 50%-70% of students got internships from my course. Internship was chosen by students based on their interests.

Infrastructure: My department has a library. You need to pay just Rs. 350 and they provide books until you graduate, also there is a computer centre where you can sit and do your tasks. Wi-Fi is available, and there are 4 different labs allotted to individuals as per their requirements. All facilities are available, including bus and food, which can be rated 9/10. There is a gym area in our college, a shuttle badminton court, table tennis court, and large area for playing outdoor games.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, and they are well-qualified. They help us in every aspect, starting from subjects to placement. Many workshops and many programs are held so that students can make use of them. Semester exams are more difficult than normal internals. 40% is the passing percentage.

Other: Almost 10-15 events are held in a year by clubs and students. Out of these, 2 are main events, which are held in even sem and odd sem, respectively. Workshops are held, hackathons are held, and students are allowed to participate in other events. Campus is quiet, and we have a central library, and the best thing about our course is that we get practical skills.
