Good Placements, Plethora of Clubs, and Good Hostel Facilities.

Placements: MEC is run by a very active Placement Cell that coordinates placement activities and drives in the college. Companies such as Microsoft, Yahoo, Nvidia, Cypress Semiconductor, Open-Silicon, GE Healthcare, etc. form the top recruiters with the average salary package coming to 8.1 LPA and the highest being 52 LPA. Some students have done internships in companies such as Keltron, Oracle, Ansys, and Deloitte.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is average. However, it has been improving recently. All departments have separate labs with necessary equipment. The college provides Wi-Fi facility throughout the campus. The college library is equipped with textbooks, magazines and journals, previous year question papers, project reports, and novels (English and Malayalam). There are hangout spots like Elga, Casa, Figa as well as a volleyball court, basketball court, and open ground within college premises. Hostel mess and facilities are good.

Faculty: All teachers in the department are well-qualified and equipped with expertise in the field. The teaching quality is good, and the syllabus is relevant to the electrical and electronics industry. However, the duration of a semester is very short according to the KTU calendar which has made it hectic for both students and teachers. Often portions are not covered completely before the semester exams. The latest pass percentage recorded from MEC is 64.19%.

Other: There are many clubs in the college that host a plethora of events all through the year (Technical and Non-Technical). Technical clubs include IEEE MEC SB, TLE MEC, FOSS MEC, TinkerHub MEC, while Non-Technical clubs include Bharatham (Music Club), Thudi (Cultural Club), The Book Thieves (Literary Club), and NSS MEC. There are other special events conducted such as Arts and Sports Days, Excel Tech Fest, Ethnic Day, College Day, Onam and Christmas Celebrations, etc.

Best placement records, below average college life.

Placements: MEC has one of the best placement records. This year, the highest package was 52 LPA. The average package is 4-6 LPA. Last year, two students got the highest package of 32 LPA. They were placed at Ansys. Top recruiting companies are TCS, Infosys, Cognizant, Deloitte, and EY.

Infrastructure: The only drawback of MEC is its lack of space and infrastructure. They have AC and Wi-Fi in the computer lab, but some computers will not work. Also, there is a lack of space in the computer lab. At times, it gets crowded. I am not staying in the college hostel, so I don't know the food quality of the hostel.

Faculty: MEC has the best faculty. They have good qualifications in the teaching field. They also know how to handle their students. Most of the teachers try to build a good student-teacher relationship. We follow the 2019 KTU syllabus. It's a bit old. They do not teach Python. But the new 2024 scheme focuses on relatively new fields. The difficulty of semester exams is moderate to hard. It depends on the level of your preparation. Commonly, in the CS branch, very hard question papers are not given.

Go there for placements and disciplined study.

Placements: In my course, the percent of students placed is a bit low compared to CS and EC because software companies are coming. About 70 percent of the students placed in my course. The highest package can be 20 to 25 LPA and the lowest is 3 to 4 LPA. IBM, Bosch, TCS, Siemens, etc. are the top recruiters. Top roles can be designer, analyzer, etc.

Infrastructure: Facilities and other things available for our course or department are less compared to other colleges. Libraries and Wi-Fi connections are there but only on a small scale. The food available is good and hygienic in both hostels and canteens. Facilities for sports and games are not enough for a game or a sportsman.

Faculty: Teachers are really good and helpful and they are also very supportive. Students can choose this college for proper lectures from teachers and this course is relevant. Semester exams are not very hard but competitive. This college is under KTU University.

Absolutely satisfied with the faculty, campus, feels. Placements are very good in 2024.

Placements: There is no pass out yet for vlsi branch. However, there is a very high placement Statistics here. A total of 273 offers were made during the MEC Kochi placementsin 2023, with leading recruiters such as Cognizant, Deloitte, and EY visiting the campus. Among the branches, CSE received the highest number of offers at 106, followed by ECE with 97, EBE with 38, and EEE with 32. The highest package offered during the 2023 placement season was an impressive INR 52 LPA, marking a significant milestone for the institute. In comparison, 416 offers were made during the 2022 placement session, where CSE also emerged as the top-performing branch. Renowned companies such as ZOHO Corporation, Schneider Electric, and Rockwell Automation participated in the recruitment drive, offering diverse opportunities to students.

Infrastructure: The Course offers very good faculty for teaching. There is availability of Wi-Fi and separate labs for each department. There are labs for Electronics, Electrical, Chemistry Physics Computer Science, Mechanical engineering, and more such branches. When it comes to Hostel, I think MEC did a very good job. It is affordable and the food is the best thing there. Usually in hostels the food is not that good. But it is an exception here. There is also a gym, basketball court and many more sports related arena near and inside the hostel.

Faculty: The teachers at Model Engineering College (MEC) are highly qualified, knowledgeable, and approachable, always willing to help students both academically and beyond. Their teaching quality is exceptional, combining theoretical depth with practical insights to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the subjects. The course curriculum is meticulously designed to be industry-relevant, equipping students with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in their respective fields. With a strong emphasis on hands-on learning, students are well-prepared for industry challenges. Semester exams at MEC are moderate challenging, requiring consistent effort and a clear grasp of concepts. Despite this, the college maintains a high pass percentage, reflection the effectiveness of the teaching and the dedication of students.

Other: The reason I chose this course is because MEC promises a very good salary package. However I think it would be better if there are more programs conducted. There are scholarships and whatnot. In my opinion the extra curricular activities should be given more importance than it is getting now.

I'm satisfied with the choice I made and where I am now.

Placements: Percentage of students who got placed from Computer Science branch is about 95%. The highest salary package offered is about 45 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is about 1 LPA. Top companies approach our college for students. Companies like Microsoft, Infoxy, etc. approach our college for recruitment. Roles offered are analyst, project creator, etc.

Infrastructure: In our college, infrastructure does not have a big structure but placements are excellent. College has good Wi-Fi, classrooms, and library. In hostel, the quality of food is good and clean. However, canteen serves non-vegetarian food at high prices, even though it is not good in taste. Sports facility is available for both women and men. Our college encourages students for sports.

Faculty: Teaches are very helpful but they overlook students' careers. The quality of teaching is good. If we don't understand any topic, they take extra classes to clear our doubts. Overall, teachers are great.

Other: The course I chose is B.Teach in Computer Science and Business Systems (CU). I choose this course for placement. This course is better for future as compared to a normal B.Teach in Computer Science, as there is same old subject but in CU (Computer Science and business system) there is new syllabus and advanced maths. That's why I chose this course.

Boring College Life!

Placements: Top recruiting company is Kalki Tech, which is a core company for EEE. A package of 50 Lakh per annum is offered, and many students get placed with a good salary package. A 100% placement rate is achieved, with every student securing an internship from this course in various companies.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure available for my course/department, such as Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and the library, are very good. However, the quality of my hostel and the food available in the mess and canteen are not satisfactory. I am not aware of the medical facilities in my college. Sports and games are conducted.

Faculty: The teachers are well-qualified and helpful, providing good teaching quality. The course curriculum is relevant and prepares students to be industry-ready. Semester exams are tough, and university exams can be difficult, resulting in a passing percentage of less than 100.

Other: I chose this course for career building. Unfortunately, there is not an enjoyable college life or campus experience in this college.
