Strong placements, supportive community, and a vibrant campus life.

Infrastructure: At Model Engineering College (MEC), Thrikkakara, students enjoy a vibrant campus with SMART classrooms, well-equipped labs, a central library full of books and digital resources, and fast Wi-Fi everywhere. Sports lovers have space for football, basketball, badminton, and more. The boys' hostel is on campus, the girls' hostel is nearby, and both offer comfortable rooms with tasty veg and non-veg meals. There's also a health center for quick medical help. Life here isn't just about academics. Even...

Good placements, small campus.

Infrastructure: Model Engineering College has a small campus compared to other engineering colleges. The college has both ladies' hostel and gents' hostel. The college has Wi-Fi, and the labs are also good at the Model Engineering College. A better hands-on experience is provided through labs.

Nice faculty members, good college.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is very small. There is a small canteen and a very small library that lacks quality books. But, there are lots of computer labs, a small internal auditorium, a volleyball court, a ground, and ample parking space for students and faculty members.

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

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is not that big compared to other colleges but now new buildings are being built. College provides a hostel inside the college campus and ladies' hostel near college. Canteen facility is good. Sports and games are also great. Usually college annual sports meet Chakravyuh, and arts fest Layatharang happens in the even semester.

It's a good choice for college in Kochi.

Infrastructure: Good academic infrastructure, but a bad hostel experience for girls. Food and accommodation are not that good for college ladies hostel. Library is abundant. One thing that is lacking is lack of space, not much recreational space available in college.

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

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure available in our course are very poor. Despite having limited infrastructure and facilities, the college has increased the number of branches, leading to a shortage of classrooms and labs. The college hostel for women is very bad.

Good college, but don't go for EEE.

Infrastructure: Classrooms have less infrastructure but if you are a KV passout, you will find it much similar. Moreover, the labs in EEE department are so outdated. In other colleges, they use whole set-ups, but here, we create the entire thing from scratch, and cross and equipment hardly even work.

No campus life but hope that placement is there.

Infrastructure: Our campus is kind of small with only 3 academic blocks. There's Wi-Fi in every corner of the college. We have a small library, an amphitheater, a very small volleyball court, and a huge ground. We also have ample parking spots for both students and faculty members.

It is a small campus with better placement.

Infrastructure: The campus is very small. We only have 3 academic blocks. The library is very small and lacks many facilities. The college bathroom is below average. Since the campus is very small, it's super easy to interact with students from other branches. We have a small amphitheatre as well as a very small internal auditorium.

Is mec worth the hype or not?

Infrastructure: All the classrooms are well-equipped with good seating and projectors. MEC also has well-equipped labs. Hostels in MEC are usually not so good, with low food and living quality. MEC offers a great range of sports facilities for students interested in sports, and it also has 50-plus clubs comprising all domains like arts, sports, tech, management, etc.

Nice college life with good and lots of memories and happily satisfied.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is great, it is not like vast areas. It is a building where all the departments can connect with each other. There is also a gym in the hostel and mess is good. The quality of food is excellent. Similar to academics, sports and games are also pretty good.

The college infrastructure is not good enough. Facilities and placements are very satisfactory.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not that good. It has a small area. Wi-Fi is available. 6-7 labs are there. The hostel facilities are good. The mess food is very nice. Medical facilities are not available. Sports and arts are conducted each year, but it does not give that much importance.

Even though the infrastructure is not up to the mark. The placements in MEC are worth joining.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of MEC is not upto the mark. It is not vast like normal colleges. It's more like a high school changed to a college. A new building block and computer lab are finished this year, so it's satisfactory. Also, the classrooms and library can undergo few renovations.

It is a small campus, only placement is good.

Infrastructure: The college campus only includes three buildings. The third one is under construction. We have a small library and a canteen that can contain only less than 80 people at a time, but it has affordable food. There is no place to hang out in the college. We have a huge ground, an internal auditorium, an external auditorium, and an amphitheatre.

Absolutely satisfied because of the excellent placement, faculty and infrastructure.

Infrastructure: Even though our college is small, it provides better infrastructure facilities. We have high internet speed, highly equipped labs, and a well-stocked library. We also have a fab lab and an idea lab for advanced projects. We have a centralized internal auditorium where workshops and seminars are conducted. Our college is a calm and clean space which provides a composed mindset for everyone to learn.
