The cutoff marks vary from year to year and also depend on the category of the candidate. Another major factor that determines the cutoff is if you are a Home State Student or Other State student. Home-state students require lower cutoffs so they are at a certain advantage. These cutoffs decrease in subsequent rounds depending on the seats left.

Here is the NIT Calicut Engineering Physics cutoff for various categories

How is NIT Calicut for North Indians?

AK
Arannya Kapoor Posted On : August 20th, 2021
Studies C.S.E at NIT Calicut (2020)

The answer depends upon whether you are a girl or a boy. Girls from North India are very few in number. Apparently, the number of North Indian girls is almost around 12 or 20, out of 200 girls per year. So, you will have a good bond with them. 

The South Indian students are amiable and can assist in times of need. The major upside is that the institute does not have any ragging complaints. However, the food is not up to the mark. 

The number of boys in the institute is comparably higher. However, there are complaints of ragging among the boys in NIT Calicut. 

So, it depends upon the companions you have in the institute. Having said that, NIT Calicut is an extremely good place otherwise. It has a bunch of helpful and supportive people. Other than that, it comes with amazing cultural and technical fests. You should be open to making friends, despite cultural differences.

How is the industrial power and automation for an M.Tech at NIT Calicut?

DS
Devesh Saraf Posted On : August 21st, 2023
Studied at NIT Calicut

NIT Calicut Industrial Power and Automation branch is a perfect mix of Electrical Engineering and Instrumentation/Automation. It comprises important elements of both fields and is a great choice for students interested in the field. 

  • However, if your primary goal is to get placed , then you have come to the wrong place. Most companies visit NIT Calicut to recruit BTech students and they are given preference to MTech students. A few exceptional cases get placed in huge firms though.
  • The faculty pool is very small and the most highly regarded professor of the branch is Dr Ashok S.
  • The branch has excellent lab facilities and is therefore a great choice for research enthusiasts. The IPA labs are highly advanced labs with modern equipment. The labs have PLC, SCADA, DCS, VFD, BLDC setup, and DSP setups too.

Overall the IPA course at NIT Calicut is a great choice if you are interested in the field and want to pursue a career in research.

Which is better, EEE of NIT Calicut or ECE of NIT Durgapur?

Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : October 13th, 2023

NIT Calicut is the better possibility because of its efficient academics, infrastructure, and placement backing. Let us have a brief look at both institutes.

EEE at NIT Calicut

  • Electrical Engineering is one of the most demanding courses, which opens up an eccentric career, especially for the zealous and hardworking ones
  • Broad avenues for an electrical undergraduate include competitive exams like GATE, ESE, Defense Engineering Services, etc.
  • NITC has an exuberant competitive culture as it follows the prospectus and pattern of IIT Madras. This ensures a healthier learning environment for the students.

ECE at NIT Durgapur

  • Most of the students got settled as coders in the IT sector without any specialized knowledge about coding.
  • NIT DGP ensures good infrastructure, academics, and placement for the students, just like other NITs

In defiance of this, the top students opt for EEE at NITs over ECE. So, you can go with the choice of EEE at NIT for an upright career

What are the major holidays/breaks at NIT Calicut?

JS
Joy Sarkar Posted On : September 13th, 2021
Studies Mechanical Engineering at NIT Calicut (2023)

NIT Calicut equally puts preference to most of the major festivals shared by different kinds of religion. 

Whether it is Christmas, Onam, Id, Diwali, or other major festivals, NIT Calicut usually offers a one-day holiday to students. But, since the majority of students at the institute belong from the South Indian area, Onam is naturally the biggest festival. It is one of the major and biggest celebrations at NIT Calicut. Other than that, students also obtain holidays for the festival of Dussehra. 

Apart from festivals, students usually get holidays by the end of their semesters, on national holidays, or on national emergencies, if any.

Compare and contrast life in SOE, CUSAT and NIT-Calicut?

AR
Arnav Roy Posted On : August 9th, 2023
Lives in Kolkata, West Bengal, India

I couldn’t get admission at NIT Calicut and ended up pursuing my B.Tech from SOE, CUSAT. I have many friends who are studying at NIT Calicut currently and on the basis of the gathered information, here is a comparison of life at SOE, CUSAT and NIT Calicut-

  1. As compared to other Kerala Engineering Colleges, CUSAT has a vast syllabus with in-depth study of various topics. The NITs, however, have an even more vast syllabus and the difficulty level is higher. At the NITs, the syllabus is spread across semesters in a proper manner, but the CUSAT students feel burdened when their exams approach because of an overwhelming syllabus and lack of proper guidance.
  2. If an NIT student fails an exam, they have to attend the classes for that subject again and if they do not limit their backlogs, they have to spend another year completing their degree. CUSAT does not take your backlogs as seriously and many students end up with multiple backlogs as a result. 
  3. At NITs, your grades play a huge role during the placement season. At SOE, CUSAT, no one gives importance to your scores.
  4. Core companies visit the NIT campuses in great numbers, offering high packages to the top scorers in the batch. At SOE, CUSAT very few core companies visit the campus and only a handful of top scorers are allowed to sit for these interviews.

Thus, without a doubt, I would say that NIT Calicut should be your first preference for a B.Tech as it is better than SOE, CUSAT on different parameters.
