B.Tech. in Naval Architecture and Offshore Engineering - Batch of 2022

1Placements2Infrastructure2Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life2Value for Money

Dissatisfied with management of college.

Placements: Only one batch is out now. Some companies are visiting our college, but not core companies. Internship is available for the students like NIOT, Hindustan, Kochi shipyard. Regarding our course, our passed out batch doesn't get job through the campus interview. They doesn't provide any campus placement.

Infrastructure: Vast library is there but the books related to our course is very limited. There is no proper labs for software as well as for other labs like dynamic labs etc. Food in hostel is not much bad. Other than sports and medical facilities are there.

Faculty: As it is deemed University, the teaching is only based on exam point of view. Now the college running with the AICTE syllabus but it doesn't teach any industry knowledge.

Other: I'm very interested in naval architecture. It has good scope abroad. I selected this course here because the course fee is less here comparing to other colleges. This is the only reason.

Our college is neither too good nor too bad.

Placements: There are no placements for my department yet, but for other departments, many companies came for campus interviews; this is because the course was started just three years ago. As far as my department is concerned, we are told that we might get a few companies this year.

Infrastructure: Our college has a vast campus. Auditoriums are good. The library is very neat and user-friendly. The classrooms are not good; they are very hot. Hostel rooms and the food available are very bad. Labs are also bad. There is no Wi-Fi provided on the campus. The conference rooms are also good. The canteen food is good and healthy.

Faculty: Faculty have a good interaction with the students. Some of the teachers are not very good. Teaching methods are satisfactory. Continuous tests are organised to keep the students up to date with the current technology. Most of the teaching is done in regional language as most of the students don't understand English.

Decent and Good, faculty members.

Placements: The placement rate for this college is around 70%. The management should have to look after internships and placement matters.

Infrastructure: The hostel, mess, and canteen are average. The library is too good. The infrastructure is decent as compared to other reputed colleges. Wi-Fi facilities and classrooms should be more advanced.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and very knowledgeable. Courses and curriculum should be concentrated more. Semester exams are not so difficult. The pass percentage is too high.

It is the best college if you want to achieve your dreams easily.

Placements: I think during my placement session of our college, many of my friends got placements except for a few who have started their own business later. So, nearly 78% of the students from our batch got placements in good companies. CGI, Microsoft and Google are the top recruiters for our course. Engineer and tech consultant are the top roles offered in our course.

Infrastructure: Our college has all extra facilities like neat and clean classrooms and well-equipped library, but there is no Wi-Fi connection. The hostel of our college was quite huge and clean with all sorts of basic facilities like proper washrooms and bathrooms, and proper rooms are allotted. Even the mess was quite better than the mess of other colleges.

Faculty: There were qualified teachers from all over the world in our college, and they used to teach really well. They used to interact properly with all the students in the class, and they used to focus on all the students. The course curriculum makes students completely ready for the industry.

Other: I got 80% scholarship from this college through the scholarship test conducted by the college. I suggest our college to give some freedom to students. However, all the events were used to be organised successfully with the special chief guests like APJ Abdul Kalam, etc.

Our facilities are okay some of our staffs are rude. Hostel is good. Food is okay. Sports and games are good. We having a good medical facilities inside the camps.

Faculty: Faculty were helpful, qualified and knowledgeable but they should be more to the students. They want to hear our problems and to solve that. The only thing they should be friendly with us. The teaching is not bad. The course is curriculum relevant and it makes the students industry ready.
