They provide quality and hygienic food to everyone, including teachers and students. They provide everyone with the same food. Varieties of food every day. Sports are average in our college. It's a 2-day programme.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful in the case of teaching, qualifications, they have almost passed out from NIT, IIT, etc. They make the students industry-ready.

Other: In this field, we can choose many job offers. It's a completely computer-based course that we can also go along with business. We need to improve more programs in college, like any fest, etc., related to technologies.

Balanced CSE academics with great labs, tight schedules, and decent campus life.

Placements: 80 to 90 percent of students are placed. The highest package is 17 LPA, the average is 6 LPA, and the lowest is 1 LPA. Recruiting companies are Infosys, TCS, Wipro, Accenture, Capgemini, Popular Hyundai, and Barath Benz. Roles offered are Software Engineer, Developer Trainee, Associate System Engineer, Full Stack Web Developer, QA Test Engineer, Cybersecurity Analyst, and Data Associate.

Infrastructure: There are AC labs for OS/DBMS, smart classrooms, campus Wi-Fi, and a vast library support the CSE department. Hostels offer clean and secure rooms. The mess serves standard Kerala cuisine alongside a varied canteen. Basic medical aid and sports fields are available.

Faculty: Faculty are qualified, helpful, and follow the KTU curriculum which covers core concepts like OS and DBMS but requires extra self-study for industry readiness. Semester exams are moderately difficult with a strict evaluation. Pass rates are around 60-70 percent.

Other: I chose this course for its vast career scope. CSE thrives on coding labs and logic. The KTU syllabus can feel outdated needing a more modern tech focus. Campus life is lively with fests and teach events though strict academic schedules limit extra activities.

Overall, the college is good. The campus is a little compact, and we will get good faculty.

Placements: Biotechnology and biochemical engineering offer a wide variety of opportunities. Above 75% of students got placed overall in the college. A minimum of 70% of students get placed from biotechnology in top companies like Zeta, Biocon, etc. The highest package is 8 LPA. The lowest package is 5 LPA. We get internships from companies like Zeta, Syngene, Biocon, and other top biotech industries. We will get exposure to outstanding lab activities, etc., so it will be a great experience for students.

Infrastructure: In our department and in our college, we have free Wi-Fi access, an outstanding department library, excellent lab facilities, and digital classrooms with excellent facilities. We have separate boys and girls hostels with 1 to 4 sharing rooms, Wi-Fi access, and quality food. There is a gym for both girls and boys. It has a garden, canteen with a variety of food, emergency medical facilities, etc.

Faculty: Many teachers are PhD holders, and some are doing PhD work, so it will be very helpful for us. Teachers help us with our projects and guide us properly. The quality of teaching is somewhat very good. However, semester exams are difficult, as exams are conducted by Kerala Technological University. The syllabus is vast, so it is a bit hard to study. It is interesting. The course curriculum is relevant, to be honest. It helps students understand everything and get used to the lab. There are good faculty members to guide us.

Other: If you are very interested in Biology integrated with tech, then biotechnology is a very good option for you. I had an interest in engineering and also Biology, so I chose biotechnology as my career. I think it will be much better if the syllabus of each subject in every semester is reduced because the syllabus is so vast, and it makes students more stressed during exams. The college conducts arts, sports, cultural, and technical events every year, and I think it's so relaxing for students after studying. I think the college is a little compact.

Other: I chose this course to follow my passion.
