B.Tech in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science - Batch of 2027
Offered by Sreepathy Institute of Management and Technology
2.2
Only a few students study here. One good thing is that no donation fee is required during admission.
Placements: Placements are occurring, but mostly with small companies or in unrelated fields such as call centers and skill development centers. ECE students receive good placement opportunities, but the situation is not as good for other departments. Most of the placements are not provided through the college, and students find them on their own.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is very average or below average and looks more like a higher secondary school with a low budget than a college. Wi-Fi is slow and cannot be used effectively by everyone. Only one lab has better computers and technology, while the other labs have old computers and a poor environment. The seating arrangement in labs is also not good. One of the male library assistants is very rude and ill-mannered. He behaves as if he runs the college, but no one care because of his arrogant and rude nature.
Faculty: Some teachers are good, while others are not. College does not seem to select teachers based on their teaching ability but mainly on their qualifications. Many teachers do not have a proper understanding of their own subjects, while some faculty members are good. The course curriculum is very outdated compared to current technologies.
Other: There is a very low number of students in the college due to limited seats and space. The college is located in a very small area and does not provide the environment of an average college campus. However, events are hosted with a good budget. The college also provides good scholarships and sponsorships.

3.4
Value for money. Fees are low, and faculty members are very friendly and supportive.
Placements: Around 20–25 out of 60 students get placed in this course. The package ranges from 3 LPA to 9 LPA. Companies like Infosys, Ai Kyro, Inker Robotics, etc., recruit students from the college. About 30–40% of students get internships in companies such as Ai Kyro, Inker Robotics, and others. The roles offered include Data Analyst, Data Engineer, AI Engineer, etc.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available almost everywhere on the campus, not just department-wise. Labs are pretty decent for computer-based departments. Classrooms are average. The library is vast, but only study-related books are available. Entertainment books and novels are not available. Decent and clean vegetarian food is available all the time, while non-vegetarian food is available only under certain conditions. Medical support and supplies are adequate. Separate restrooms are provided for both boys and girls. For sports and games, there are teams for almost every sport.
Faculty: Very selective but qualified faculty members are available, with a mixture of inexperienced and experienced professors. The current curriculum is a little outdated, but the syllabus for junior batches is updated. It is quite relevant and beneficial. Semester exams range from easy to difficult, depending on the subject. The pass percentage is about 65–70 percent.

B.Sc. in Mathematics - Batch of 2028
Offered by St. Aloysius College
4.0
The college, St. Aloysius, is very good, and the facilities are also good.
Placements: Around 60% of students are placed in our college. The highest package is around 6-9 LPA for certain courses/students. Average packages are lower for a general degree. Students who build skills independently tend to get better internships and off-campus jobs.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are available only for girls, there are no hostel facilities for boys. The food in the hostel is really good. There is a large library for everyone. Classrooms are clean. There are a lot of facilities to help with certain courses. Also have labs for specific courses.
Faculty: Teachers are good and have many years of experience. Their teaching skills are good and understandable. The 1st semester and 3rd semester paper evaluation is at our own college. The pass percentage is high, and there are fewer people who fail in every semester.
Other: The course I chose is B.Sc. Mathematics, because I love to study Maths-related things. Teachers of the Maths department are very helpful and skilled. Facilities are good in the Maths department. There was a Maths fest for the Maths department last year, and other college students also came for the fest.

The great campus of EMEA.
Placements: There is no placement in my college. In my college, there are no placements, only internships. There is no percentage needed to get internships, it's based on the semester. Top recruiting companies are Cochin Logistics Pvt., Unicorn Pvt., Hapag-Lloyd, Maersk, etc.
Infrastructure: The course is great, but the classroom is very poor. There are 60 students in a small classroom. There are no lab activities for our course. We have a library that's really great and neat. The canteen is neat and has a good ambience. Medical facilities are good. Sports and games are more important in my college.
Faculty: Teachers are good, and the teaching quality is not bad. The course curriculum is really relevant. But the industry is so weak. Exams are simple, and there are only 26 marks to pass in our course and internal marks are also included in this mark, etc.
Other: I chose this course because of the scope and job opportunities. The best thing is that we get more practical experience, such as an internship. In the 2nd semester, I got an internship for 1 month and also in the 4th semester. Then there's also a huge internship for 6 months in the 6th semester, a semester full of internships. The course is great, but our faculty members and mentors need to improve. The campus is really good, and fests, events, etc., are really great. I love that, but the only thing is our block is situated so far that it's like off campus.

Other: The best thing about college is its standard learning and teaching. Christ College also engages you more in real-life practicality like national-level management fests are conducted in each department and immense support from the department for participating in fests at other colleges.

The college provides good infrastructure, supportive faculty members, and attractive placements.
Placements: The majority of the students who apply for placements get placed. Even though not all of the packages are that huge, most of the students get placed in top companies. Some of the companies are Cognizant, Deloitte, Accenture, and banks like South Indian Bank and Federal Bank. Top roles offered in my course are in the IT field.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is top-notch. There are multiple buildings for different departments, and the college also provides many computer labs and other practical labs. Also, our college has a big two-story library facility with all kinds of books. Speaking about hostel facilities, it is the only downside of our college. The hostel facilities are very poor with high fees, and the hostel food is also not very hygienic.
Faculty: The faculty members here are very qualified and supportive. Most of the teachers here are Ph.D. holders in their respective subjects. We follow Calicut University FYUGP curriculum, and it makes the students industry-ready up to a limit. The difficulty level of semester exams is moderate to hard, and the pass percentage is close to 100%.
Other: My course is a Bachelor's in Math and Computer Science double major, and I chose this course to get the best of both worlds. By learning math, you will get the analytical reasoning capability, and CS gives you that logical reasoning capability. Also, our college conducts different programs every day. Our college auditorium has programs every day, even on Sundays, and the college has multiple clubs for the students for their extracurricular activities and development.
