    It is an amazing college. Everyone should definitely join this college.
    Placements: B.Tech. in Biotechnology is a highly demanded course. There are 50% of students are placed after taking this course. The minimum salary of a biotechnology engineer is 10 LPA. Top companies are Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, etc. It provides skills development. Students develop practical knowledge, critical thinking, quantitative aptitude, and conceptual skills.
    Infrastructure: Our course mainly focuses on agriculture biotechnology. So agriculture-based infrastructure is high. It provides Wi-Fi, a library, different types of laboratories, and facilitated classrooms. The hostel is good. It provides a mess and canteen at food affordable rates.
    Faculty: Faculty members in our college are very superb. The minimum qualification for every teacher is PhD. Semester exams are not that much difficult. We get a moderate-level question paper. 50% score is safe. There are regular semester exams at the end of a semester. There are retakes of exams for students who may have failed or need to improve their grades.
    Other: Biotechnology is a highly relevant and developing course worldwide. In India, it is still improving. In our college, all extracurricular activities are occured. My college gives importance to both academic and extracurricular activities.

    Faculty members are good. Placement is not very much. The infrastructure and hostel are good.
    Placements: To be honest, a very less percentage of students get placed in our college. The main two reasons for this are that a majority of students prefer higher studies and a less number of companies come for campus placements. However, companies will come if we consistently contact them and show enthusiasm for jobs rather than higher studies. Some banks, tractor companies, and irrigation companies are the top recruiting companies.
    Infrastructure: Compared to all other government colleges, I would say our college provides better infrastructure and hostel facilities with good quality food. The college also supports students in sports and games by helping them participate in inter-agricultural national level and South Zone level competitions.
    Faculty: Faculty members are very good at teaching and provide immense support. The curriculum is relevant to the present scenario, as the new syllabus includes courses like artificial intelligence. It also gives students a chance to get a Diploma Certificate if they are interested in leaving the course after 1 or 2 years. Semester exams are quite difficult. But it is not a difficult task even for a below-average student to pass.

    Absolutely satisfied with renowned faculty and infrastructure.
    Placements: Most of the students in KCAET were well placed in food industries such as Hatsun, Jubilant Food Works, Kohinoor, etc. But most of them opted for higher studies in foreign countries such as New Zealand, Canada and Australia. However, it's our honour to be blessed with good alumni. The salary packages offered were decent and ranged between 1.5 LPA to 3 LPA. Students were offered roles such as production executive, quality controller, and also R&D executive. Most of the students got internships in the reputed organisations such as Pepsico, United Breweries, Britannia, Hatsun Agro Products, etc., which nurture to be the future leaders. There is a placement cell in the college, but it depends on us to utilise it effectively and to find the benefit through it.
    Infrastructure: Concerning facilities, you would be amazed by the facilities the college is providing in spite of being a government college. I assure you don't have to worry about the facilities in the college as it's international. The college provides classrooms, library, medical facilities, labs and also high-speed Wi-Fi connection, to students. Labs in the college contain advanced equipment and also offers a handsome experience to the students which reflects the quality of education. The canteen offers delicious food to the students, and it also offers an option to select the food from the menu. Even the hostel rooms are very pretty and quite comfortable. The infrastructure of the campus is out of the mark. The campus is spread over 100 acres. Campus life is good.
    Faculty: Faculty members of the college are renowned personalities of Kerala Agricultural University. All are research engineers, so KCAET students are proud to be blessed with such faculty members who are highly qualified from IITs and foreign universities around the globe. The teaching methods are not confined inside the classroom as all are practical oriented and also conduct an industrial visit for each course. In our case, our batch was blessed to get overseas industrial exposure from National Ilan University Taiwan. The course curriculum of KCAET consists of 8 semesters of classes, including one semester of industrial training. The course curriculum of the college is much useful to the students to learn about the food from the basics.
    Other: About the extracurricular activities, I am not sure whether you'll have these many opportunities in any other college to hang out on the campus fest, surroundings, and to participate in sports, etc.

    Everything is good like teachers library infrastructure etc.
    Placements: Some of our seniors got a job through campus placement. VST Tillers, Kirloskar Pumps and such companies are offering jobs here. In VST Tillers, they treated our agricultural engineers as a Technical Trainer. The salary offered by them is 13,000 and an extra 500 for food and accommodation per day. Almost all the final year students do their internship programme during the last semester as an inplant training. At this time, we get 8,000 as a stipend.
    Infrastructure: 24-hours Wi-Fi is available. But, the computer lab is not much developed while comparing with the other self-financing colleges. The chemistry and physics labs are also very poor, but the electrical lab is sufficient. The other labs like geotechnical engineering lab and HMT labs are good. The library has sufficient books for all the students and a book bank scheme is there for providing individual copies of books to the students at half the price of the original. Really tasty food is served by our canteen, and the hostel rooms also sufficient to accommodate 4 people per room.
    Faculty: Mainly, 4 departments are here. All the teachers are good and qualified, and almost all the teachers possess a doctorate. We have industrial visits related to our subjects, and most of the theory papers have practical sessions in our syllabus. In one department, there are many guest lectures as well.
    Other: Our college is superb because here, we not only doing studies but also all other extracurricular activities like arts festival, sports day, athletics etc. Like the other colleges, our college also has a little kind of politics which makes a student into a social being.

    Really good infrastructure and facilities.
    Placements: Unfortunately, there are no placements that are taking place in our college. But in a year, only 40 students are passing out. So the competition is less when compared to other engineering courses. The students who passed out are now working abroad or some are preparing for more competitive exams. Now the 32nd batch of this course is studying in the college as first-year students.
    Infrastructure: The college is situated on the banks of Bharathappuzha. The college is situated in a 100 hector area and there are 3 buildings for classrooms, one library building and one college canteen. There is also a Krishi Vijnaan Kendra. The computer lab has its own Wi-Fi network. There is a large playground and the sports and games are also given importance as the academics. There is also a ladies hostel and a men's hostel. The hostel rooms are good. Food is also good. All the books are available in the library. There are also labs for each main course and workshops too.
    Faculty: The teachers are very few here. Permanent teachers are good at teaching. Some of the temporary staff members are also good. Most of them use multimedia presentations to teach rather than reading the textbooks in the classroom. Student-faculty ratio is about 25. It is due to less number of students.
    Other: This college will be a variety experience for those who are studying in this college. There are a few students, so each and every one knows each other very well. Most of the students are staying in hostels and only 5 percent of the total students are day scholars. The all-India tour, which is a part of the curriculum and farm and all other experiences may lead us to develop a good personality.

KCAET has a good facilitated library which has different subject books, objective books, weekly and yearly magazines, thesis reports, journals and computer facilities, etc. There are two auditoria in which one is a roof-top auditorium. For physical education, separate courts are available for games such as volleyball court, basketball court, foosball court, indoor badminton court etc. In the case of hostel facilities, two girls' hostel and two men's hostels are situated having WiFi facilities.

We performed well in the arts festival too. Some of our students got selection in university team for Interagri and inter-university sports and games. The campus has a good environment.
