Student centric teachers.

Infrastructure: Central University of Kerala offers more than 50 courses which is incredible. It has separate hostel facilities for male and female candidates with all the essential amenities. They also recommend some of PG if candidates are not comfortable with hostel accommodation.

Overall, best college for M.Com course.

Infrastructure: Our campus was situated on 50 acres of land. The university was the only college in Kerala with a huge auditorium and a fully equipped laboratory for computer and public use. The dormitory for girls was located outside the school, while the hostel for boys was located inside. Additionally, there was a football and cricket field.

Review of Central University of Kerala.

Infrastructure: The college has a dedicated department building and separate classrooms with good infrastructure. There is a good library with books related to various subjects. Itep students have their hostel named Kabani and a common mess for boys and girls separately. The mess is managed by a private company that provides average-quality food. The sports meet is called Urja, and other games are also organized.

Nothing is there in this college.

Infrastructure: College could have better infrastructure and facilities. Basic amenities like washrooms, water, and Wi-Fi are not up to the mark. The hostel is the worst, don't join there as there are no hot water facilities, no power backup, and no privacy.

It is a campus for students' future.

Infrastructure: Facilities in the hostel and college are good. Each classroom is digitalised and science students have separate labs for physics, zoology, chemistry, and botany. Free Wi-Fi is available in the hostel and department. The library has various books on almost all subjects. A new library building with more facilities is in progress. Hostel facilities are good.

Satisfied with the peaceful atmosphere.

Infrastructure: Hostels are good, especially the boys' hostel, as most of them are newly constructed and have every facilities and neatness. I would recommend the hostels due to their good standard and cleanliness. However, there are sometimes Wi-Fi issues on the weekends. Other than that, you will have a standard and good hostel experience.

Environment friendly huge campus with trees.

Infrastructure: The hostel is average but it's comparatively good as compared to other hostels in the locality. The food in the hostel is not good. They provide college hostel inside the campus and an Annex hostel which is 2km away from college. The hostel is only for girls, and they put high restrictions on movement. It's overall fine, but not highly recommended.

Nice campus, nice hostel, and enjoying the university night vibes.

Infrastructure: In hostels, 3 people are in one room. They provide tables, chairs, beds, table lamps, and board facilities to all students. Meal quality is average. Firstly, students have to apply for the hostel. Before some days of admission, the university publishes the list of students who get the hostel.

The quality of mess food at any university or college can vary over time and is often influenced by factors such as the management, food providers, and student feedback. The experience with mess food can also be subjective, as individual tastes and preferences differ.
