Placements: Our college is among the top choices for placements as it offers 100 percent placement. It is the second-best college in Kerala for placement. We have a separate training cell and placement cell for enabling the students to sit for placement by improving their knowledge. They will conduct tests which will make us evaluate ourselves and work for the better.
Placements: About 70-80 percent were placed in the previous batches. Most of the placements are for Computer Science and EC students. Last year, the highest package was around 50 LPA. The lowest may vary around 3-4 LPA. Talking about internships, the people who actually get paid internships are relatively few.
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.
Placements: I think about 80% of students got placed by both on-campus and off-campus selection. The highest and the lowest packages were 12 & 8 LPA. Core companies coming were less; many of them were related to the IT field. 40% got internships in many core companies. Clinical engineering and service engineer were the top roles offered.
Placements: I am currently pursuing my third year of college, and I can definitely say MEC provides better placement offers than most of the colleges in Kerala. Last year, 137 students got placed only from the ECE department. Companies like Harman Motors, Synopsys, and others were some among them. Also, MEC has the best placement cell and a strong bond with alumni, which makes it the best for placements.
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.
