Satisfied with the overall facilities and faculty members.
Placements: About 80 percent of students got placed. The package depends on the company they got placed at (approximately greater than 5 LPA). The top recruiting company is TCE but many more companies are there. About 95 percent of students got internships. Mainly they go to renowned institutions like NIT, NEST, IIT, etc. Roles offered are environment consultant, scientists, and data analyst.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available. Highly maintained lab facilities are available. Classrooms have enough air and light (suitable for studying). The department has a library. CUSAT has a very large infrastructure library available. Good facility hostels are available.
Faculty: All our professors are PhD graduates. Teachers are very helpful. They are highly qualified and knowledgeable, 10 out of 10 teaching quality. The course curriculum is very relevant and it makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are moderate level not too difficult. If we study well we can secure a good grade and we can maintain a good CGPA. The pass percentage is 40 percent.
Other: Many of them were interested in the environmental field and they wanted to excel in this field. The best thing about this course is that it's not a popular course, it's a rare one. Nothing wants to improve everything is fine. Events, fest, campus crowd, connectivity, campus surroundings, scholarship, and extracurricular activities are awesome.

Best Option for M.Tech Instrumentation Technology.
Placements: Only 60% students got placement. The average package is around 4-7 LPA. Reliance, L&T, and Vedanta Limited are the top recruiting companies. Most of the students got internships in Reliance, FACT, Tata Consulting Engineers, etc. A post-graduate engineer trainee position is the role offered by the companies for our course.
Infrastructure: The facilities and the infrastructure offered by our university is very good. There is Wi-Fi access, structured labs for research works, and the classrooms are very calm and clean. We also have a library in our department, and we have a central library in our university. The facilities are fine, and the quality of the food in the mess and also in the canteen was good, and they are very much affordable, and also we have a medical centre in our amenity centre and sports facilities, and also games are available in our university. 
Faculty: The teachers are very knowledgeable people, and they are very helpful and calm, and they are highly qualified. The course curriculum is relevant, and it is more industry-related. The semester exams are moderately difficult, but a regular class student can confidently clear the exams. The pass percentage is generally high. 
Other: I chose M.Teach Instrumentation Technology at CUSAT because it is more affordable, industry-related, and technically relevant. The course syllabus is more student-friendly, which is the best part of this course. They can improve the lab facilities for M.Teach students. There are so many technical fests, sports activities, university arts, and extracurricular activities in our university. And also we have scholarships like Egrants.

A great campus but it has poor hostel facilities.
Placements: Around 70% of students in CSE have been placed. The highest package is 43 Lacs per annum, and the lowest and average is 6.55 LPA. The top recruiters are TCS, BPCL, Infosys, and HashedIn. The internship statistics are not clear. The top roles offered are software engineer, full stack developer, cyber security analyst, data analyst, and systems engineer.
Infrastructure: While the infrastructure available to the department is very good, the hostels are average at best. The department has at their disposal facilities like at least 6-7 different computer labs, each for different purposes like a networking lab, DSA lab, operating systems lab, etc. Each of these labs is equipped with Wi-Fi and air conditioning. The classrooms are average size and fit around 50 people at a time. Standard stuff like smartboards and projectors are available. The department has one library that contains all the academic materials required for the students. The quality of hostel, food, and sports facilities is not that great.
Faculty: The teachers are super helpful and have a lot of industry knowledge that helps the students become industry-ready. The curriculum is updated from time to time to remain up to date. The teaching quality is really good. The semester exams are not too hard, not too easy. They actually test a student's knowledge. The pass percentage is really good, especially in the CSE department. The course has a pass percentage of 97, to be exact.
Other: I chose this course due to my love for technology. The best things about my course are, without a doubt, the teachers and my friends. The hostel facilities and food require a huge upgrade. But other than that, everything else is manageable. The campus hosts a lot of amazing events and fests with a great crowd for networking. The campus is spread across 180 acres with beautiful greenery. Scholarships are given to very few people based on income and reservations. There are a lot of clubs present on campus where we can learn and explore.

CSE department looks great and strong placements continue.
Placements: This year the placements in the Computer Science department saw a significant rise and more than 90 percent of the students have successfully secured a placement. This year the highest package is reported to be 13 LPA in campus placements, the average is around 6 LPA, and the lowest is around 3.5 LPA.
Infrastructure: We have computer labs and a vast library in the School of Engineering. The Computer Science department is situated in the software Block. The university hostel is allocated based on the distance of their residential address so that priority is given to students from other states. For international students there is a separate hostel.
Faculty: The curriculum is really advanced and the syllabus can be compared to IIT's. The syllabus here changes every 4 years and it is always in synchronization with the GATE syllabus. The semester exams are manageable if one attends classes and shows consistency.

Absolutely satisfied because of good placement, worth every penny.
Placements: All students were placed in the last year. This year it is very good. Reliance, L&T, and major companies have already recruited, but Gail hasn't come for recruitment until now. The highest package is 22 LPA, while 7.5 LPA or more is the average. This year, 19 third-year students got internships at the Reliance refinery in Gujarat. In many cases, the companies that gave internships will recruit them. Many roles are given to students. If you don't have any supplies in the exam, you will get an internship and placement.
Infrastructure: The library is good, and basic amenities are provided. First and second-year students have to take private PG hostel rooms, as the college doesn't provide them. Only a few long-distance students were given the hostel. There's a good canteen and sports facilities, but medical facilities are low and no pharmacy is provided by the college.
Faculty: There are fewer responsible teachers, and the management system is not very good. The curriculum is good. If the students put in some effort beyond the syllabus, it will be a huge benefit to stand out and make them industry-ready. The semester exams are moderate, and if students are willing to put in effort for the exams, they will surely pass.
Other: Events and fests are moderate. There are good placements if you are disciplined and ready to take responsibility. Safety and fire engineering is the best choice.

College ROI is really good.
Placements: The average placement till 2023 was approximately 8.3 LPA. After that, due to the recession and college companies' bond issue, it decreased to 5 LPA. After the placement cell worked along with the alumni network, the placement rates got better, currently between (7.5-8.2) LPA.
Infrastructure: Old college with old infrastructure, but the new buildings are very good. The college comes under CUSAT University. It's a very reputed college on an international scale. You will find a lot of international students, and in our college, we have good libraries.
Faculty: Faculty members are really strict, especially for the Computer Science department. They take a lot of exams compared to other colleges, and the paper evaluation is also strict, but for some branches like IT, Safety, and Fire Engineering, it’s a very high standard.
Other: The college is fully loaded with plenty of fests, but if you're North Indian, you will not enjoy the fests that much because most of the songs are in Malayalam. Still, we have Hindi songs and performances as well because the Hindi audience is both Malayali and North Indian.
