A good college for students who only want to study.
Placements: Maybe, below 10 students are placed. The placement is not much. As autonomous, the chance is decreased. In terms of placement, we have major recruitment from TCS, Infosys, Wipro, etc., with a medical salary of approximately falling between 2 LPA to 3.5 LPA, positioning it as the leading I institution in North Malabar.
Infrastructure: The college doesn't have good infrastructure. The hostel is too strict. Not a friendly atmosphere. The library has technology to record the time students spendere using a barcode of their IDs. We have all kinds of books to refer to, which help to improve academics. Talking about the hostel, the warden and all needed to be a bit friendlier.
Faculty: Average faculty. Some have ego issues. But we have good faculties too. Some senior faculty will treat you very badly. But it's just some. The majority of the faculty members are very friendly and would help us in developing our skills and all. Also, they are ready to help us with academics.
Other: I chose it because of its future importance.

Placements: The college placement cell is not that active. Placements are not conducted for the M.A. English course. Other courses have a chance to get placement offers. In my college, not many companies come for placements. Many different types of seminars are conducted in our college, which help us build our personality.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college is great. Libraries are in good condition and equipped with many types of books. There is a canteen where we can buy items at an affordable price. The canteen provides delicious and hygienic food. The hostel facility is good. In the hostel, we feel at home.
Faculty: All teachers are very experienced and deeply qualified. They help students with doubt solving and problem solving. They are very kind. The teaching quality of all teachers is top-notch.

Review of Vimal Jyothi Engineering College.
Placements: I am currently pursuing my B. Tech from Vimal Jyothi Engineering College. Around 60-65 percent of students are placed in my college. TCS and Microsoft are the top recruiting companies. I think the highest salary package is around 16 LPA, and the average is 4-6 LPA.
Infrastructure: In my college, they provide Wi-Fi, high-tech labs, a library, etc. They provide a nice library for students, which consists of around 20000 books related to engineering. They also give free Wi-Fi in their hostel, and they provide the best rooms for students. Around 4 students in one room.
Faculty: They provide some teachers who have less experience in teaching, but the majority of teachers have more than 15 years of experience. Now I am a first-year student, so they provide fewer industry-based classes. They provide 3 3-series exams before the semester exam, and it was very helpful.
