Very satisfied college, top level faculty, placement and college life.
Placements: CET is one of 3 colleges from Kerala in the NIRF ranking. With such eminence in academic and curricular activities, the college is the most sought-after engineering college by applicants to engineering degree programs in the state. While talking about placement, almost 90% of students got placement offers from the mechanical 2023–24 batch. Many core companies, like Ford, Bosch, MRF, Nissan, etc., recruit students from CET. CET has an effective placement cell that assists the student throughout our journey by providing all the necessary help in order to prepare the student to face the placement interview and to secure a good career. In 2024, the mechanical department already had 177+ offers. The average package for the mechanical department is 10 LPA. The top offer I got in the 2023 batch was 33 LPA from the 2024 batch.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the mechanical block and labs is not too good. The mechanical block is the oldest block in the college, and the situation in the lab is bad. The machines in the lab are very old, and the computers in the CAD lab are also very old and less in number. Even though there is Wi-Fi in the department, it is not sufficient for the students requirements. Many classes don't even have proper lighting and fans. The condition of the library and hostel is good. The library has a good collection of books and a large collection of reference papers and books for students. The library also has a good space as study corners for students with Wi-Fi connections that are open to students. The hostel facility is also good. Good rooms with proper lighting and ventilation and a good study atmosphere are provided in the hostel. Also, the food is average.
Faculty: The faculty members of CET are well qualified and very helpful. Their way of teaching and quality of teaching are outstanding. All the faculty members are very helpful in academic activities and other curricular activities. Students can approach the faculty members for any needs at any time. Faculty members provide their best for the improvement of each and every student in the college. The syllabus provided by the university is outdated, but the faculties are doing their best to provide the current application of the things included in the syllabus. There are 3 exams in a semester, including the final end-of-semester exams. The pass percentage is about 50% to 60%. The papers are comparatively tough compared to some other branches.
Other: I chose this course because mechanical engineering is my interest area. Even though it has some tough papers, it won't matter if it is studied with interest. I wish the syllabus would improve. Many things in the syllabus are outdated and have no application in the current scenario. The events and festivals conducted at the college are among the top festivals in South India. The technical festival 'Drishti' is one of the top technical festivals in South India and the top technical festival under KTU. The cultural festival 'DHWANI' is also a top-level festival in South India. Students are getting many scholarships during their courses. There are many cells working in the college to inform the students about all the scholarships available to them. The location of the campus is easily accessible. Within 45 minutes of traveling from the main city, we can reach the campus. The college is located in a non-crowded area where buses are always available from the town.

This is very satisfying because the faculty is good.
Placements: Various campus placements are brought up by the college. Main companies such as USB Global PCS access instruments come here for placements. Almost 12 to 13 LPA is the average salary package. 75 to 80% of students get placements from here every year.
Infrastructure: Every department is there on Wi-Fi and the classroom is clean and big. There is a General big library near the mechanical department and an old small library in every department. The hostel is good and is clean and with good food and medical facilities. Sports and games are important in hostels.
Faculty: Follows the syllabus put out by Kerala Technical University which is also known as APJ Abdul Kalam Technical University. The faculty members are very good qualified ones who are very supportive. The question papers are moderate of the university and we should get 75 marks out of 150 for passing the exam.
Other: The main thing about the college is that the Vibe. The campus has two main festivals known as Rainy and Drishti. I joined this college because it's the number one college in Kerala.

College of Engineering Trivandrum will be heaven.
Placements: CET is among the Top most engineering colleges in Kerala. Here placements are very good. Around 1000+ placement offers are there on every year. In mechanical Core jobs are comparatively low. Higher package is cynlar with 10 CTC lower is feom 3.75 onwards. But KTU only allow internship for 2 months on S8. That is not enough for many companies and hence the offer will be lost.
Infrastructure: We have Wi-Fi connections in every building, But the connection speed is low. Many others computer labs are there for studying. The other workshop labs are good, But old machineries. Men's Hostel facilities are very good, and the food is in top most level.
Faculty: Faculty members are good. But the curriculum and course are not up to the level. Not updated syllabus, Relevant subjects are very low, even in the 2022 also we are studying and doing the very traditional procedures Semester exams are some what easy. If you studied 2 nights before exam, you can score well.
