B.Tech. in Electronics and Communication Engineering - Batch of 2027

4Placements4Infrastructure3Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money
Great college life with not so great academics.
Placements: Around 50-60% of students get placed and the rest go for further studies or don't get placed on campus. The highest package was around 39 LPA which my senior got on campus and the lowest would be maybe 4-5 LPA I guess. Texas is the top recruiter for our department.
Infrastructure: The quality of facilities and infrastructure is like any government college, nothing to hype about. Wi-Fi is slow and classrooms are okay I would say. Not the best but not the worst also. I don't live in the college hostel. I stay outside as a paying guest but as far as I have heard from the college inmates, the rooms are decent and the food is better than any other outside hostel.
Faculty: Some teachers are good. Some are not that good also just like any school or college but some are really wonderful and helpful. All the teachers are highly qualified but all of them know how to teach properly I would say (not someone to judge but that's what I would say from a student's perspective). Course curriculum is relevant but the time allotted for one semester is very low around 3-3.5 months which I don't find very tough but I hear many of my college mates complaining about it.
Other: To be honest, everyone was taking engineering and maybe that's why even I took it. Or maybe I didn't have much idea about my own interests which led me to engineering but after 1.5 years of engineering I am slightly getting an idea of what I want to do in life so probably after 4 years of B.Tech even if I don't know what I want in life, I'll definitely know what I don't want in life (that is engineering?).

Review of College of Engineering, Trivandrum.
Placements: College of Engineering, Trivandrum, has the best placement list in Kerala. Each and every department has core company placements. Comparatively, the Computer Science department has higher package offers. The highest placement in the academic year 2023 is 15 LPA.
Infrastructure: The college is large compared to other colleges in Kerala. It is one of the richest in lab equipment and facilities. The college also has a large library, open to everyone, and provides hostel accommodations for both men and women at a nominal rate.
Faculty: Teachers are good and have proper knowledge about our topics. The syllabus is a little bit old, but now a new scheme has been installed for new students. The pass percentage is average because many have a lazy mindset and are not working properly. Semester exams may be difficult, but they may not be too difficult.

Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) - Batch of 2029

Best college in Kerala, but don't have high expectations.
Placements: I am not sure about the placements, but I have heard they are average because of our course. Placements are comparatively low for the batch. At least 15 out of 40 people get placed every year. I think about 30% of students get placed, but architecture is a course where students don't really focus on getting placed.
Infrastructure: Our college infrastructure, though old, is really good. I am staying outside the college, but I've heard that some parts of the hostel are not that great, while others are really good. In my department, I am not satisfied with the washrooms, but other classrooms are good. It has a department library and also a department store, but getting something from there is kind of a long process.
Faculty: Most of the faculty is great and very knowledgeable. Course urriculum is based on continuous evaluation with never-ending assignments. Exams are comparatively easy, except for the theory of structures. One have to look out for that subject. Also, don't have high expectations. It's a roller coaster of highs and lows. But from what I have heard, it is better than most private colleges.
Other: I chose this course because I like to learn something creative. As of now, we do fewer things related to architecture, but it will surely come in the years to come, so let's hope it will be more fun then. Think a lot before choosing this course because we can regret it many times. College life is pretty chill, and there are loads of extracurricular activities, be it sports, dance, music, etc.

The average experience at CET.
Placements: The highest package offered was by Texas Instruments at 36 LPA. The lowest package was from companies like TCS, which were mass hiring at 3.3 LPA. Top companies are TI, Bosch, and Schneider Electric in my domain. Most companies are non-core, and those are the companies most people got placed in.
Infrastructure: There is a department library and the college library. The college library has more facilities and books than the department library. Wi-Fi is available for each class, but you need to register your device beforehand. There’s also Wi-Fi availability in other spots around the college.
Faculty: Teachers are qualified and knowledgeable but not very helpful. The teaching quality is average. It's all self-study; do not expect to be spoon-fed, even when it comes to labs and workshops. The curriculum is relevant. Semester exams are not difficult, and the pass percentage is high in the college.
