B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering - Batch of 2029

Offered by Marian Engineering College

3.8

4.0Placements4.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life3.0Value for Money

Good placement, good infrastructure, and facilities. Faculty members are okay.

Placements: Almost 30% to 35% of students get placed. The package offered is acceptable for a fresher but not good enough for a skillful student. I think the college should make its placement opportunities stronger. It encourages students to study harder to achieve their goals. The roles offered depend on the selected course.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is okay. The campus is a green campus that is plastic-free and ragging-free. There is a lot of greenery, so we can study peacefully. The quality of food in the hostel and the hostel facilities are very average, but the college canteen is good.

Faculty: Most of the teachers are good, helpful, and well-educated, except for one or two. I think the college should provide more training for the newly appointed teachers. The course curriculum is relevant. The semester exams are easy if we study well. The pass percentage in our college is nearly 90%.

Other: The course I chose is very helpful for the future. The interaction with technology makes it more interesting. It would be even better if the college provided more practical knowledge. The events and fests in our college are good.

Best engineering college under KTU with Kerala Rank 1.

Placements: The College of Engineering provides various placement opportunities. Most students get placed, and others opt for higher studies and research. It is one of the best colleges under KTU that offers a large number of placements in Kerala. The Career Guidance and Placement Unit (CGPU) is available for any kind of help.

Infrastructure: This course, Industrial Engineering, comes under the Mechanical Engineering department. The college has a large technical library facility with more than one lakh books. Hostel facilities are available nearby. All kinds of facilities are provided. Hence, it is one of the best.

Faculty: Teachers are mainly IIT and NIT graduates. They are also good researchers and hold patents. They are really helpful. The 2024 curriculum under KTU is followed now. It consists of more relevant courses. The new curriculum focuses more on application rather than theory.

Other: This college consists of various famous fests like Dristi, Dhwani, Odisha, etc. It is one of the campuses with many fests. There are many other things to explore here.

Review of TKM College of Engineering.

Placements: Placements were very good. Companies from different parts of India and the state came to conduct interview sessions, during which the students performed their best. Based on their talent and skills, the students were placed. The average salary package offered was 3.0 LPA. The highest package offered last year was 18 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Wipro, Infosys, Mahindra, Accenture, TCS, BYJU'S, and HDFC Bank visited our campus for placements. The Software Engineer role was offered to the students. Nearly 70% of students secured internships at various companies.

Infrastructure: The college hostel was very good and well maintained by both the students and the staff. The hostel provided good facilities, including two meals a day. The quality of the food was very good. There were ceiling fans, 24-hour electricity, a peaceful environment with no noise pollution, and a garden where students played with their friends.

Faculty: Faculty members were good. They were well-experienced and taught us well. They were experts in their respective fields. Many were Ph.D. holders with diversified knowledge of core subjects and programming languages. Their experience helped us a lot, and they were very friendly and supportive. The semester system was followed, with each semester lasting 6 months. There was one mid-semester exam and one end-semester exam in every semester. Marks were also awarded for attendance and practicals. Exams were easy to moderate in difficulty and were well structured. The course curriculum was quite appropriate. It was especially for students belonging to a non-IT background. The first two semesters covered the basics of programming languages like C and C++. Later, we learned advanced languages like Java and HTML.

Review of Bishop Jerome Institute.

Placements: Placements were good. Companies like ICICI, Archgate, and others came for placements. This year, KPMG, Deloitte, and Wipro also came. However, most placements are in sales and call centre domains. A job fair was also conducted. Companies like HDFC, Indigo, ICICI, TCS, Tata Motors, participated. Packages were remained similar. Various profiles offered include Investor Relations, Financial Reporting, Management Accounting, Tax, Compliance, Management Reporting, Risk Analytics, Market Research, Capital and Risk Information Services, and many more. The highest package was 28 LPA, and the average was around 4 LPA. Overall, the placement was good enough.

Infrastructure: The hostel facility was available. There were also PG options nearby. The charges were decent, and the environment was good. Hostel rooms were available in both shared and single options. The mess food was good and reasonably priced.

Faculty: Faculty members were knowledgeable, but some teachers were not permanent. If you liked a teacher, there was a chance you might not see them in the next semester. Some faculty members had been in the department for over 30 years. The total marks were divided into internal and external assessments. Internal marks (30%) included tests, presentations, case studies, and group activities. External exams (70%) were conducted twice a year, in May and December. Passing could be difficult if internal marks were not good. The course curriculum was good enough. The subjects were well-structured and to the point, with good offerings. Students had options to specialize in Finance, Marketing, HR, Information Technology, and Operations. Specialization electives could be selected by students. The course curriculum was very elaborate and practical. It was a 2-year full-time MBA program.

Really good campus atmosphere.

Placements: The year 2026 is not a great year for placements in EEE, RIT. Only a few students, fewer than 10, get placed through on-campus placements. Companies like Sobha Industries, L&T, Mitzogo, etc., visit the campus. Roles like GET and internships are offered. Packages are about 6 LPA. Around 15 students get internships during their last semester.

Infrastructure: The department has its own Wi-Fi, which is strong. It also has its own library. Labs are equipped with instruments but lack accuracy. The college hostels provide an adequate quality of living with clean food. The college also promotes sports and games. The college brings together talented students in every field and prepares them for athletic meets and other competitions.

Faculty: All faculty members are hardworking and available to help. The course is relevant in every scenario. Industries always need skilled electrical engineers. Semester exams are a bit difficult in even semesters and have an overall pass percentage of 80%. The last two semester exams are comparatively easier than the other semesters. Choosing the correct elective is also important for getting good marks.

Other: The course provides real-life problem-solving skills. The department could improve its lab facilities. Many cultural events, sports-related events, and fests are conducted every week. The campus has great surroundings and follows an anti-ragging policy.

Good infrastructure and affordable fees, but placement needs improvement.

Placements: Placements are average. About 15% of students are getting placed. The salary range is around 1.5–3 LPA. Most roles offered are entry-level positions. Internship opportunities are limited. Overall, only about 15–20% of students get placement opportunities in the college.

Faculty: Faculty members are helpful and qualified. The teaching quality is satisfactory. The curriculum covers basic concepts of the course but could be improved with more industry-oriented topics. Semester exams are moderately difficult. Students who attend classes can pass without much difficulty.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest in this subject.
