What Students Say?

Likes

The syllabus is very impressive and worthy; most of it is from the IIT curriculum.
Many companies come to our college, and students who are eligible and perform well in interviews get selected.
The highest placement was from Amazon, offering about 12 lakhs per annum. Many students got off-campus placements in reputed companies like Ola, Ola Search, etc.

Dislikes

This is not mandatory in case we want to intern; the college is not granting leave either, so the college administration sucks.
Basically, there are no other extracurricular activities in which we can indulge. The only alternative is sports, which is also not supported by the college. Labs are inadequate, and students from certain branches have to go to Cochin to attend labs due to the poor facilities here.
There are many negative things, like dirty politics and bad company, but you only get involved willingly.
