CUSAT SOE: college of dreams.

Infrastructure: As a general category student, it was difficult to get a room in the campus hostels. Rooms are allotted based on distance from your hometown and your reservation category. The campus hostels are pretty great, and they have a variety of food options. Students from outside India stay in a separate campus hostel called the International Hostel CUSAT.

Only for placements, this college is good; for other facilities and infrastructure, it's very bad.

Infrastructure: The overall infrastructure and hostel facility are very poor. There is no proper sports facility and it's a very food-prone area. The financial condition of the college is very poor compared to the main campus. The college doesn't have its own hostel facilities.

College with bliss of nature. Satisfied with faculty, placements.Infrastructure needs to be improved

Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the college is not that good. As this is a rural campus of CUSAT, it does not meet the expectations. The library is good. It is easier for MCA students to access the library facility as it is just near the classroom. The canteen is fine, not that great. The sports facility is average.

Nice college with pleasant vibe.

Infrastructure: Hostel facility is very poor, but the ambiance and vibe with friends give so many memories. The faculty in charge of the hostel is also very nice and friendly, but the main problem is the mess food; it is very poor. The curries are like flowing water, but the atmosphere is very nice.

Choose CUSAT because it's a good option and you are going to get a great exposure.

Infrastructure: The classrooms at this university are equipped with smart boards and Wi-Fi, which makes learning much easier. The labs are also very good. The Mech lab, which every student in the mechanical, civil, and safety departments has to go to in the first semester, is very well-equipped. There is also a fully functional thermal lab and machine shop.

Good placements till now.

Infrastructure: The students are allotted hostels. You will get all the facilities in the hostel. You have Wi-Fi, safe drinking water, a TV room, carrom, table tennis, etc. inside the hostel. You will also have a mess in the hostel. The food is average, and there is a university library available. Students can use the student lounge in the library till 11 PM, which is a very good thing.

Satisfied with the college life. But dissatisfied with the lack of a competitive environment.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, digital libraries, physical libraries, and software such as Manupatra and Grammarly are provided to students, and bus facilities for students in Kochi; however, Manupatra remote access is not given. Hostel facilities are also provided with only RS 400/month. The quality of food is good as the mess is run by students.

It is one of the best colleges for MCA.

Infrastructure: Overall infrastructure of the college is poor and requires improvement. Classrooms are spacious, but cleanliness needs attention as there is dust present. College is situated in a hilly area with pleasant weather, but it lacks proper connectivity to city life. Wi-Fi and LAN internet facilities are provided for students.

Review of Cochin University of Science and Technology, Kochi.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average as it is a new building. But many plants are being implemented to make the infrastructure very good. A library is available with a lot of journals and books. If it is not enough, we use the university library as it contains more number of journals and books. Wi-Fi implementation is at the starting stage. The software block has a full Wi-Fi facility. Labs are good. Many lab sessions are held.

Great placement with world-class facilities.

Infrastructure: All hostels in our college were good. Our university had good services. Each room had three beds, a desk, and a ceiling fan. Food in the hostel was good. There were no special dishes, but the food was very delicious and hygienic. The registration process was simple. Priority was given to hostel accommodation for students from remote areas. Hostel cost, including meals is Rs. 2300 per month.
