Well-rounded campus, hygienic food, and great faculty members.
Placements: CUSAT is known for helping engineering students find jobs, while a master's degree in Physics focuses on research and teaching. About 20% to 30% of students find jobs outside of college, mostly in visualization, software, and data analysis. However, most students need a master's degree (about 40-50%) or a research position at a reputable university. Universities provide good resources for students, but if departments could do more to connect Physics students with other disciplines, their chances of finding a job could improve.
Infrastructure: The CUSAT campus has well-equipped classrooms, a well-equipped library, and adequate facilities for all departments. The Science department has advanced research equipment, but classrooms and labs need upgrading. The food is excellent, with vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, and hygiene is excellent. The college has sports facilities, including basketball, volleyball, badminton, football, and a playground.
Faculty: CUSAT faculty is highly qualified and experienced. They have the ability to explain complex real-life examples easily. The courses are carefully structured and tailored to industry and academic needs, which helps students develop new skills. Their clear way of teaching helps students understand basic and advanced concepts, which is why the program has a success rate of 85-90%.

About CUSAT placement, faculty, infrastructure, facilities.
Placements: If your planning to take admission in this course become that prepared that you can clear any round of off campus drive by yourself do not depend on college on. Placement are good only for engineering students for Physics there are less placement I choose to be a teacher and got job in IIT Bombay. College tries but demand of M.Sc. Physics students is very less so nearly 60-70 percent student placed rest are started own venture or doing jobs in other sectors. Internships are need to find by ourselves linkedin is best platform.
Infrastructure: College is located in primary location of city all amenities are easily available. Wi-Fi is available in hostel and classroom. Browsing speed is good but downloading speed is very bad. We not have any common auditorium mostly event are organized outside the college. Classrooms are good having projectors, benches and green boards. Yes I am a hosteller food is terrible, quality is so bad. I frequently order through swiggy and zomato.
Faculty: Teachers are good in teaching but time is so less and curriculum is so big in many cases all chapters are not taught. Course Structure is 2 years duration 4 sem and every sem have 5 subjects and 6 chapters in every subject. It was very big sometimes lectures are very long continuous 3 hrs lectures are also arranged. Semester exam is class tes, mid term and semester exam all are high in difficult level. Our class passing percentage is 85 percent.
Other: College is government affiliated so feels was very less for one year it was only 10k it was huge plus point. The improvement need to done in placement and teaching.

Teachers and facilities are good here.
Placements: We don't have any placements for the students of M.Sc. physics department. Most of the students try for PhD and other research positions. As far as the internships are concerned, around 8-9 students out of 30 students got internships during the first year summer vacation. The stipend offered was about Rs. 5,000 per month.
Infrastructure: Our department has different labs. Some of them have good facilities, and the others were not well facilitated. The labs of our M.Sc department are poor, but our research labs are good with different facilities. They teach different characterisation techniques like XRD, SEM, FTIR, UV visible spectrum, dielectric characterization etc. The college provides average medical facilities, and we also have a good library. The food offered in the canteen is just above average.
Faculty: Our department has about 15 teachers and 6 emeritus professors. All of them are well qualified and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is up to the mark. The college doesn't provide any industry exposure. Teachers are highly helpful with our projects and other curricular activities.
