Rajagiri School of Engineering and Technology.
Placements: The majority of the students are being placed in companies like SIB, Infosys, TCS and some other local companies near our college in Infopark. The highest package this year was 13 LPA from a company named Foodhub. The salary packages range from 3 LPA to 12 LPA. I guess Infosys is the top recruiter, almost 150 students got placed there.
Infrastructure: The college is pretty aesthetic. It's near a riverside and in a valley. Lush greenery meets tall buildings here. The garden is well-maintained. Infrastructure is not bad. The classes are not air-conditioned, but we have almost 8 fans in one classroom, so it's not that hot. Labs are also good. The library is resourceful and has Wi-Fi. But hostels are not that good, though.
Faculty: Teachers are pretty qualified and knowledgeable. Moreover, they know how to make the topic reach to you. They know how to teach, unlike a lot of college professors. The course curriculum is pretty relevant. You have a lot of add-ons for employment and AI-related stuff. Semester exams aren't that difficult. The pass percentage is 40%.

Nice college with good vibes, but not good in practicals. Placements are good in 2023 and 2024.
Placements: Only 40% of students get placed in my course. The top recruiting companies are Phoenix World of Engineering, Creative Designs, Paradigm, and Centre for Social and Resource Development. Top roles are site engineer, design engineer, structural engineer, and junior engineer. The average package offered is 6 LPA, with the highest being 14 LPA and the lowest being 2 LPA. Around 60% of students get internships.
Infrastructure: I study civil engineering at my college. Facilities in the civil engineering course are limited, with fewer lab equipment, only one or two permanent teachers, and no proper Wi-Fi. Classrooms are good with projectors. The library is air-conditioned with a silent environment and many books. The hostel is very nice, but the food is not good, especially breakfast. Medical facilities are good. There are many grounds for sports and games.
Faculty: Teachers are less helpful during exams, but they are knowledgeable and very strict. Teachers are well qualified, and the curriculum is relevant to the civil engineering course. It makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are very tough. The pass percentage of the college is 75%.
Other: I choose this course because I love construction work, design, and plan drawing. I want the subjects of my course to improve. There are many programs in the college, and the seniors and teachers are very friendly.

The ground reality of campus life, academics, and placement opportunities.
Placements: In my college, campus placements are fairly good in the software field. Students from any branch are eligible to apply. Companies such as TCS, Grandtley Edutech, and sometimes Infosys conduct campus recruitment. Approximately 50–60% of students get placed through campus placements. Many of these roles are not high-quality positions. Most students are offered jobs such as call-center or small tutoring positions rather than technical engineering roles. The maximum salary package is about 10 LPA, while the minimum is around Rs. 18,000 per month. In Electronics and Communication Engineering, companies like Calvi and Sensor Vision IoT visit, but placements are very low.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is free for all students for one device. Labs are good and well-structured. The library is also very good, with enough books for reference and a vast collection of various subjects. Hostel facilities depend on the hostel. The government hostel has only a few rooms, so others take private hostels. Canteen food is quite good at cheap rates.
Faculty: Teachers are good. Semester exams are conducted by Kerala Technical University. The pass percentage is 75–85%. The course curriculum is updated compared to the 2019 scheme. The 2024 curriculum was good if students follow it and study according to it.
Other: I chose Electronics and Communication Engineering because I have a good interest in Electronics rather than software. I wish the course had more practical content than theoretical. There are several events and fests in the college, with Invento being an upcoming one. Several technical and non-technical clubs help students stay connected. The campus is located in a remote area but is easily accessible and has a very eco-friendly environment.

GECSKP is a peaceful college with so much fun and activities.
Placements: Most of the students in our college have been placed with a reasonable package. Speaking purely for Mechanical Engineering, we have companies like L&T Infotech, Siemens, SP International, Torry-Harries, UST Global, IBM, and HP (Hardware Division).
Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are good. Our college has functional and well-maintained lab facilities. It also has a peaceful environment compared to the city's rush. As for medical emergencies, there are three hospitals near our college. Along with academic studies, our college also encourages us in sports and games.
Faculty: Faculty members are so helpful and friendly. They are patient enough to repeat a topic to clarify our doubts on any topic. With their help and a little effort, it is very easy to score well in our semester exams. The curriculum is well-refined, making the student industry-ready.
