B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering - Batch of 2029

4.2

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Faculty is good but placements in some courses are low. College has good infrastructure.

Placements: The placement is low in the college. Core companies don't visit often for placements. Branches like mechanical engineering have least placement while computer science has the highest. Students can attend internships and later join companies.

Infrastructure: College has a good infrastructure and includes labs, workshops, library, etc. Campus Wi-Fi is provided for student usage. Classrooms have digital board for teaching. College have limited hostel capacity so first year students are less likely to get into college hostel so they have to stay in private hostels. The hostel food is good. College provides sports facilities including different sports courts and gymnasium.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful in bringing up a good engineering career. Teachers often give short lectures, and students have to refer to studying it in depth. The new scheme of KTU i.e., 2024 scheme is relevant to the current industries but students have to keep up with industry developments through clubs like IEEE, ISTE, etc.

Other: Mechanical engineering department is versatile enough to deviate into many fields. College curriculum can provide more exposure, which could be helpful. The college life is so active and often has fests like RITU, KELI, etc. College have active NSS units. Government scholarships and some private scholarships could be availed for this course. Campus is green and the vibe.

College has good infrastructure and average placements.

Placements: Placements at the college level are average especially in departments like mechanical engineering. The college has strong clubs like ISTE, IEEE etc. You could develop the necessary skills and gain experience. The campus placements are limited to a few companies.

Infrastructure: The college has a good infrastructure including labs and a library. Department libraries are also there. College hostels are good and have a nice food menu. College includes a gym and has courts for different games and sports. The college workshops can be used for doing projects.

Faculty: Here are good resource persons. The college classes offer minimal teaching and rest of the study has to be done by oneself. The 2024 scheme has a better standard but one needs to improve themselves with industry changes. One semester consists of two series exams along with lab exams and at the end a semester exam will be conducted.

Other: The campus is always lively and provides better opportunities to have exposure to the real world. The clubs are active and provide additional experience. The college conducts fests like RITU, KELI etc. This makes the campus life memorable. The college has a strong alumni connection. Updating oneself with the new industry standards is mandatory to get a job after college as colleges have average placements.

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

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.
