The department of polymer science where the expectations meet the reality.
Placements: Our seniors had a great placement last year. The main companies that came for the placements are Appolo, Reliance, SRF, MRF, etc. We don't need many marks for getting placed. The companies are just asking the students to pass in all the subjects. It is a great pleasure and luck to be here in the department of polymer science at CUSAT.
Infrastructure: We have a great department with all the amenities we need. We have completely free Wi-Fi for the students and the faculty members, well-equipped labs, fully furnished classrooms, a library with all the books for our syllabus, the placement cell, etc. We have a canteen with all types of food including Chinese, North Indian and Indian. There are no issues regarding the infrastructure of the college.
Faculty: The faculty members are very helpful and kind with all the students. They are all PhD scholars and ready to help us all the time. They conduct special classes for those who need. They motivate us always. They show us the right way to go. So, I am happy and lucky to have such good faculty members.
Other: If you are expecting a good job with a salary around Rs. 7 lakhs per annum, then the department of polymer science is the best option you got. There is no competition for the jobs because we have a less number of students studying the B Tech polymer science. CUSAT is a great campus to study. You can enjoy your maximum with the studies. And, the other great thing we have here is our CUSAT central library. You can find almost all the books for your needs here. The library works on all the working days as well as the holidays from 9 AM to 9 PM. It is an entirely Wi-Fi enabled library with high-speed internet. It's a great place to study, read and everything. So, I am happy to be here.
