Sree Narayana Mangalam College Maliankara in the year 2025-26 for M.Sc course admission.

Absolutely satisfied with facilities, good placements, other crews, and faculty members.

Infrastructure: Facilities at this college are good. The usage of Wi-Fi, labs, and library helps us in every department. We have UG and PG lab with many facilities, and research work for the final project is helpful from our labs. Canteen is good in our college.

It's a very strict college and has a quiet atmosphere making it a good place to study.
Placements: 20 percent students were placed through campus interviews and other offers which the college offered. SBI is the top recruiting company. 20 percent students got internships and 20 percent of the students got placed as financial managers, Bank employees, CA, and in marketing sector.
Infrastructure: The labs and library are very cool but do not have enough space. The labs are tiny and it should be expanded according to the needs of the students. Classrooms are very nice and well furnished along with being smart classes. The campus is too small but it's filled with greenery.
Faculty: The teaching quality is very good. The semester exams are conducted under the regulation of Mahatma Gandhi University so it's hard from my point of view. The passing percentage is 70-80%. It's easy to pass the exams but you need to study hard to score well.
Other: It's a good course to get better jobs. The events and fest are so beautiful and the best. You can see it all on the Instagram pages.
