Govt. Model Engineering College - [MEC] Thrikkakara, Kochi
What Students Say?
Likes
- It was well good in every sense under the Cochin University of Science and Technology, CUSAT, Cochin. I will recommend you this as one of the best universities for your better future.
- College did not provide internship opportunities; students had to find internships themselves. However, placements were good, with a placement score of more than 90%.
- We are proud to have hosted the biggest names in the industry as part of internships and recruitment drives.
Dislikes
- Scholarship and loan facilities were offered by my college, which I knew of and availed. Furthermore, since it was a government college, the fees were less.
- The campus here is so disgusting that there is not enough space to accommodate all the students in the college.
- But I was disqualified since the college hostel only hosted a very limited number of seats, and it was so untidy to lead our daily life.

MEC: 1 Answered Question
Why is MEC Thrikkakara opted for by Keralites more often than CUSAT SOE?
Having friends studying in both institutes, I can say that MEC has a better (on-campus) placement record than SOE CUSAT.
- CUSAT is also good overall but passing papers is such a difficult challenge. Only a few candidates are eligible to participate in placements.
- As a result, most of the companies hesitate to visit campus for placements. But students are doing well in off-campus placements.
- This institution was originally part of Cochin University, and it was regarded as one of the university's best colleges in terms of amenities, location, and excellent faculty.
- However, this college, along with many others, has recently merged to become Kerala Technical University, resulting in a drop in demand for admission.
This has improved the facilities and educational quality and certificate value for CUSAT at both campuses. The top scorers tend to opt for CUSAT rather than KTU.
