Good place to enjoy your college. Aesthetic buildings. Must join a cult in a way.
Placements: For our department, BBE placements are low compared to others, most of the students will be placed in IT companies, and most in Federal Bank. Only a few, like Zifo, etc., come for the biotech department. Training and classes are good. Nearly 20 percent of the students get placed in good companies.
Infrastructure: The college doesn't have a hostel inside the campus which makes it difficult, but offers various hostels in the surrounding area. They have no infrastructure, except the one main building. There is no ground, auditorium, etc., but it offers all kinds of programs at their best.
Faculty: As it is the one and only government college in Kerala with a biotechnology and biochemical engineering department, if you score good marks you will be one of the university toppers which makes sense. As the exams are conducted under KTU it might be difficult for some but easy to score.
Other: It is one of the best courses for one who completed the Biology group in +2. Our college conducts one of the biggest events in Trivandrum known as the cult a way. It is one of the largest cultural fests that includes a musical concert, in which South India's most popular teams perform, and it is a must-watch.

Overall its a good campus. The only negative I felt is that there is no playground.
Placements: Am a 1st year Mechanical Engineer student. For my branch, around 20-40% of the students get placed, which is less compared to other branches. The average salary package for mechanical engineering will be around 6 to 8 LPA, whereas the highest would be around 12 LPA, and the lowest would be around 4 LPA. The top recruiting companies include Tata Elxsi, IBM, Oracle, EY, and several other IT-based companies that hire mechanical Engineers. About 50 - 60% of the students get internships from companies like Tata Elxsi, Accubits, TCS, Infosys, etc. Top roles include design engineer, Quality engineer, etc.
Infrastructure: The college has good infrastructure facilities. This college has one of the largest mechanical workshops compared to other government colleges in Kerala. It has a good lab facility, a good classroom atmosphere, a library with a wide variety of books, clean washrooms, etc. The college canteen is small and doesn't have much variety of food, but the food that is provided is overall good. This college has active teams in almost every sports event, but there is no playground in the college, which is its biggest negative. The college doesn't have a hostel facility. But several hostels and rent house are available in the nearby locality.
Faculty: This is one of the few government colleges in Kerala where all the faculty of the Mechanical Engineering department hold a doctorate. Thus, the quality of faculty is very good. The course curriculum is based on KTU. The syllabus is updated every 4 years. The semester exams have become tougher in recent years. The pass percentage of students in the mechanical engineering batch is around 60%.
Other: The annual flagship cultural fest of the college is called Cult A Way. It's a grand event for which every SCTian is waiting. It's a 3-day event mainly taking place during the month of April or May. It's one of the biggest college cultural festivals in Kerala. For more about it you can check the office Cult A Way instagram handle.

SCTCE is good when it comes to academics.
Placements: Honesty, placements are not that good. Core companies rarely show up for Auto, so most of us just end up in mass recruiter IT jobs. SCT is good at academics, but the degree alone is useless. If I don't grind coding or Machines learning on the side, I'm not getting a job.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is average. Campus is tiny, basically a school with no ground for football. Auto labs are decent, there's alot of KSRTC buses. There isn't any college hostel but college approved private hostels. Facilities are bare minimum but the college is located in a city.
Faculty: Faculty is good. Most of them are highly qualified. Half of them are good at teaching but the other half have massive ego issues. The Auto syllabus is alright. KTU exams are just a scam to give us supplies. I spend more time writing records than actually learning anything.

Affordable government college with strong academics, decent placements and good campus facilities.
Placements: Around 60-70 percent of students get placed in circuit branches. The highest package offered is about 10 LPA, and the average package ranges from 4-5 LPA. The lowest package offered is 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies for our course are TCS, Infosys, and Wipro. About 40 students secure internships. Software engineer and system engineer are the top roles offered here. The placement unit is one of the best in Trivandrum.
Infrastructure: The college has well-maintained classrooms, adequately equipped labs, campus-wide Wi-Fi, and a library. The mess and canteen food is average with limited options. It has well-maintained classrooms with smart boards and projectors. Laboratories are equipped with the necessary instruments and tools for practical sessions. There is a campus-wide Wi-Fi that supports research and online learning.
Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified and helpful. The course curriculum is relevant to the core subjects, but students need to do additional self learning and projects to be fully industry-ready. The overall pass percentage is around 85 percent.
Other: I chose this course due to my interest in core engineering and the reputation of SCTCE as a government college. The best aspects of the course are experienced faculty members and strong exposure to technical knowledge. I wish they had more industry-oriented training and updated labs.

The college has good placement records and a vibrant campus life.
Placements: The overall placement was 35 percent in 2024. The highest package is 34 LPA from a software/IT branch. The median package is 5.2 LPA for B.Tech. The average package is 4- 6 LPA for CS and ECE departments. The lowest package is 4 LPA. Recruitment is largely dominated by the IT sector. Although core electronics and design companies also visit. Top companies include TCS, Infosys, Cognizant, Wipro, UST Global, Oracle, and Tata Elxsi. The college actively promotes and secures internships. Internship companies include Tata Elxsi, bTrizlabs, Accubits, and Infosys. Top roles include Software Engineer and Electronic Design Engineer.
Infrastructure: I am a day scholar. The ECE department is well-regarded for its laboratory facilities, with a focus on both core electronics and emerging fields. The college is equipped with a cutting-edge computer network and internet facility. There is a Central Computing Facility (CCF). Classrooms are generally well-maintained, and some are smart classes equipped with projectors. The Central Library is well-stocked, with a collection of over 30,000 books. A Digital Library is also available. The food in the canteen is cheap but not good. The overall campus area is relatively small, and the college lacks its own full-size grounds.
Faculty: Faculty, particularly in the ECE department, are highly qualified, experienced, and dedicated. Many holding degrees from reputed institutions like IITs and NITs. Faculty members are helpful. They are supportive, friendly, and approachable. The B.Tech curriculum is governed by the APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University (KTU). The course curriculum is considered relevant. The university exams are moderate to difficult. There are usually two series exams before the semester-end exam, and the average of these marks contributes to the final internal assessment. The pass percentage was around 75 percent in 2024.

Absolutely satisfied here.
Placements: Above 40 percent of students are placed in our course. Average package is 8 LPA. Mainly Tata, Elix, other automobile companies, and industrial companies come for recruitment from our college. Above 60 percent of students got internships. It is a better college.
Infrastructure: The college has good infrastructural conditions for studying mainly for mechanical students. It consists of modern equipment using labs and good lab faculty members. More importantly, it only has a limited place for play ground. It also doesn't have an auditorium but it has seminar halls.
Faculty: All teachers who teach here are very supportive and friendly. Most teachers have patent and doctorate. They all have updated knowledge of their subjects. The college is under KTU. The college follows the rules, circular of KTU university. Semester exams are simple if you study properly.
