Remarks

Positive remarks includes the beauty of place where the college is situated. Yes our College is situated in kuttanad, Alappuzha which is a low lying area surrounded by backwaters and other water bodies which enriched the beauty of the place, Kuttanadu is also a tourist spot. Students are happy and peaceful due to these merits. The only negative remak that I personally felt is the unavailability of necessary infrastructure and a Hostel

College have a well organised and well maintained placement cell for knowing current placement offers and also they provide aptitude and skills training. But college does not provide any internship offers a student have to attend internships provided by governmental or non governmental organisations outside the campus

Campus Life

1.5

Extra curricular activities are abundant arts, sports, tech fests are common, college have different clubs which organises various events on various occasions or they conduct events regularly for improving additional skills of students

Hostel Facilities

Our College does not have hostel facilities offered by the college itself, one has to depend upon private hostels owned by third party private owners. It's very difficult situation existing here. Private hostel owners charges high monthly rates for stay and sometimes it seems un affordable

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

College has an alumni association which helps in knowing the status of our beloved seniors and they appears as a god's hand in many occasions where raising funds for an event or a program to be conducted

Faculty

3.5

There exists permanent and temporary faculties temporary faculties are working on a daily wage basis. Temporary staffs are well qualified and permant ones are well experienced. When it comes to helping a student in academics, all faculties are of very much help. As For every bright side have a hidden dark one, still there are teachers who are unable to clearly express the overwhelming knowledge they have.

Likes

College was at a beautiful place. It was not a city but a beautiful place.
Hostel was great. I got many friends from there.
These are the only things that I can think of.

Dislikes

Teachers, they are horrible one one teacher named aparna was professional and ethical. My HOD was the worst.
Principal is the worst. She does not hear students side. She is money minded. I had a fee pending for not more than 2 week. When I went to her for signing my medical report she demanded that she will sign only after I paid that fee
The college does not encourage extra curricular activities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is the worst. Teachers rush through the portions so that they can finish at the earliest. It may be because the university has a unjustifiable timetable. There is very little practicals given. The ones that are given are just for namesake.

Dislikes

Very poor campus life. No importance for cultural programmes and activities
Very poor and degrading environment for women. Faculties and other staff are very judgemental.
Very low packages for average students. Placement training is regularly being provided, but it is too hectic to be managed along with curriculum.

students become eligible for placements after sixth semester. Major companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, e.t.c are recruiters. about 5-10 students are recuited on average by these companies. highest package was offered by south indian bank in 2023 (10 LPA). average packges are around 2 to 3 LPA.

Likes

Our seniors passed out with flying colors joining different companies or starting their own. There's a good focus on peer learning and student communities which is pretty nice. Canteen food is decent and labs are great
Most people and professors are friendly and they encourage you to try out new things.

Dislikes

Hostel water , busses are pretty fast. Sometimes roads are a bitt rough

Course Curriculum Overview:

Course curriculum is under KTU syllubus do it's fine. There is a change in curriculum coming 2024 which i assume would make a lot of good changes. The curriculum gives you a head start For most of your work, you need to on your own but the faculty is there to help. The frequency of exams is weekly tests + monthly exams. Its not too difficult of an exam.

Likes

I feel like staffs in my department are pretty good, atleast they fullfill their duties to cover the portions in right time
We have placements training, offered free of cost by college itself
Notes and necessary materials for studying are provided from college itself, and most teachers don't force on buying textbooks or other materials

Dislikes

College is located in aarakunnam, which is a bit remote area hence for various needs we often need to travel a few kilometres even for basic necessities
The road to collage entrance is a steep road, and currently it's under construction (it's been a yr)
Students are required to park their vehicles outside the college, as there is no parking facilities for students inside campus

Placement Experience:

Currently placements are bit low, due to inflation, but compared to other colleges like KMEA, etc we have better placements similar to Muthoot and all. We have placement training, and other supports which can help us crack aptitude exams and prepare for placements Almost 70-80% students are placed every year, with an avg package of 4LPA

Likes

When it comes to the campus life, I enjoyed all the 4 years
The infrastructure was okayish Could've improved.
The faculty was really friendly and I was able to approach them without any hesitation.

Dislikes

The road from the junction to the college is not at all maintained. Students coming up the hill find it very difficult to reach college
The bus fees are increased every year. But these people can't find a way to provide seats for the students after paying their bus fee.
Some other campus offer many varieties of food in their canteen. This has to be done here too

Placement Experience:

The students usually start appearing for campus placements in their 6th semester. The training for the campus placements is started for all the students from the 4th semester. Many companies visited for campus placements. But one main problem is that most of them were low packages. Around 4LPA. Some were between 4-6 and a very few between 6-10. Most of them got placed in our batch in some company.
