In terms of the research field, there are almost no placements opportunities in Engineering Physics at NIT Calicut. The only companies where you will be are allowed to apply for the placements are in the Consultancy services, Sales, etc. 

Basically, we can say that NIT Calicut has nothing to offer to the students of Physics. If you want a decent job, then you should work on your coding skills else, you will have to do the basic 8-7 jobs.

You can also apply for IIT JEE coaching institutes as these companies offer better salaries and less workload. If you wish to pursue higher studies in the future, you can get a side job at one of these coaching institutes and prepare for your entrance exams. This way you will be in touch with your subject and earn part-time.

NITC MBA hostel is one of the newest hostels on the campus. The MBA hostel is exclusively for boys, and the rooms are large enough for two people. Each room has two beds (no mattress), two tables, two chairs, two almirah, one fan, one tube light, and two windows.

For every two rooms, there is a shared bathroom. The hostel also has a good laundry service. The mess is close to the hostel. Overall, it's a very nice hostel with good facilities and lots of greenery. The hostel has the capacity to accommodate around 300 students, including visiting faculty.

A separate ultra-modern hostel facility for girls is also available. The girls' hostel has a mini-canteen, an indoor shuttle court, a gymnasium, and an extension of the co-operative society store.

IIIT Hyderabad CSD would be a better option between the two if you like to study Computer Science as per the standards of US Universities. Otherwise, you can go for NIT Calicut CSE.

• IIIT H has a good brand name in the industry and this will definitely help in your career. Even if you wish to pursue higher education, you can get into top colleges because of the tag of IIIT H. 
• The institute focuses more on research as part of their curriculum, therefore it will definitely help in the higher studies. 
• Exclusive companies visit the campus during placements such as Tower Research, Rubric Inc, Apple, etc. 
• Google also hires interns at IIIT Hyderabad based on your GPA.

However, you should make the decision on your personal preference.

Yes, there are various scholarships available for OBC students studying at NIT Calicut. There is one scholarship called MOMA, it is a Merit cum scholarship. It is of national level Central government funded scholarships. State government funded scholarships are also available. 

All OBC students are eligible to apply for this scholarship. The notification for this scholarship will be displayed in the academic building. The student can ask the dates for the form from the seniors.

For all the information, one can visit the district welfare department website and get the required information. One can also talk to a fellow senior student and know all the requirements and information of the scholarship.

First of all, you need to understand what you want. Do you want higher education or a placement? Then ask yourself whether you want only computer science because you love the subject or simply because you want a good placement.

• If you love computer science, then do not worry and join NIT Calicut. You will learn it in an elaborate way and can then pursue a master’s or doctorate degree. 
• The fee at NIT Calicut is also lower than that of BITS Pilani.
• However, if you are like the majority of people who want CSE for placements, then I would suggest you consider BITS Pilani or any of its other campuses. 
• You have to understand that a CSE degree is not compulsory to learn to code. 
• If you join ECE or ENI programs and learn to code yourself. You can easily land a job in any IT company. 
• The salary package you will receive at BITS Pilani (any campus) will be better than that of NIT Calicut.
• The college life of BITS Pilani will also be very good. 
• You will not have the pressure of attendance. 
• There are lots of extra-curricular activities you can participate in also.

ENI and ECE are technically different branches but they are almost the same. Except for the high fee of BITS Pilani, I do not feel BITS Pilani or Goa campus is anything less worthwhile than NIT Calicut. In fact, if you want only placements, then BITS Pilani any campus should be your choice.

I have friends studying at NIT Calicut, and according to them, the classes usually begin from around 8 A.M. However, it is not mandatory to have a class during the very first hour when the institute commences. Depending upon your timetable and batch, the classes can accordingly vary. 

You can have a total of 3 to 4 hours of class periods and it might still commence from around 10.15 A.M, depending upon whether or not you have been allotted the slot with other members of your class.

Microsoft has introduced a program namely DreamSpark by partnering with more than 80 institutions. With this initiative, the students are trained on Microsoft tools so that they can completely understand everything. Students enrolled in these institutions will already have hands-on experience in the industry.

NIT Calicut, however, has its policy where most of the software is used from the open-source domain and students are encouraged to contribute for the same through FOSSMeet activities. 

If Microsoft hires students from FOSSMeet it would be a great loss as the entire time would be wasted to train them.

By not being trained according to the norms and policies of Microsoft, the company usually does not visit NIT Calicut for placements.

NIT Calicut is far better than Hyderabad Central University. At the university, you will find most of the students from nearby states whereas NIT has a multicultural atmosphere with students coming from every corner of the country.

The climate is also very soothing in Calicut that will help you to grow and study. NIT Calicut has well-qualified faculty members providing quality education. Not only education but it will also help in your overall development and to lead a better life ahead.

The placements of NIT Calicut are also very decent. According to the recent placement statistics of following data can be tabulated:

Last but not least we can say that choosing NIT Calicut is a better option over Hyderabad Central University due to its diversity in various fields.
