Good placements, small campus.

Placements: Placements are pretty good at Model Engineering College compared to other engineering colleges. Electronics and biomedical have low placements compared to other departments. The highest placements in core EBE companies are 20 Lacs per annum, according to my knowledge.

Nice faculty members, good college.

Placements: Placements are very low for the Mechanical Engineering branch, as the branch isn't NAAC accredited. The first Mechanical batch starts in 2020. Only about 25% of students from this branch get placed. However, top recruiting companies visit our college, like L and T, Sobha Construction, etc.

Excellent college with placements and skill development but has some infrastructure constraints.

Placements: In EEE last year, almost 80% of students were placed in different companies. Overall placements for CS are very much higher than for other branches. Reputed companies like Visa, Redbus, etc., are regular recruiters from our college. In my course, top recruiters are Kalkitech, Hitachi, Synopsys, etc.

It's a good choice for college in Kochi.

Placements: College offers very good placements compared to other contemporaries. Number of companies visiting for CS is more followed by Electronics. Other branches do have placements but a bit less in core. A dedicated placement cell run by students is one important plus point of MEC.

I am dissatisfied with infrastructure, but our college provides good placements and high packages.

Placements: Almost 80% of students got placed in our branch. The placement rate of our course is above average due to alumni support. It decreased now compared to past years. The highest salary package offered in 2023 to 2 students was 50 LPA. Our college will provide very high competition for placements in the coming years.
