Review of Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology, Kerala.
Placements: This college does not offer placement with better companies. The companies that come here are just above average. But majority gets placed somewhere. The average package ranges from 4 LPA to 8 LPA. We should train ourselves through internship programs outside the campus. We could get jobs in IT companies, laptop industry, Google, Microsoft, electronics companies, robotics companies, etc.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is above average. The building and all are old. We have Wi-Fi facility throughout the college including government hostels. The labs offer is used by the whole department, and we should form a group in lab session (1 system for 3-4 people). The hostel is very underrated for the price. Hostel is very friendly (money and freedom).
Faculty: Teachers are very qualified and knowledgeable. But some teachers don't put effort to cover the syllabus. Sometimes they won't even come to class but it is not applicable to whole teachers some are really gems. The 2024 curriculum is better than 2019 curriculum. The semester exams are held by KTU University. The papers are so good but they won't address mark to the most of students.
