Remarks
The College is the first Christian community college in Kollam. That doesn't mean that Christians are preferred. All religions and caste are welcome in the college. The main problem was the timing. 8:30-4:30 but now the timing have changed. Neat dressing is compulsory. We have uniforms. Clean shave is a must.
Course Curriculum Overview
I studied B. Tech under Kerala University. Its not good. The exam times are all messed up. The exams usually takes place afternoon. Its provides us with some time for study or revision. The results take too much time. Sometimes almost 6 months.
Placement Experience
During my time there was no placements. The college tried for it. But the institute being new and all, the companies were not particularly interested. The college allows students to go for internship. We have to find the companies on our own. It will usually be unpaid internship. No stipend.

Admission
I got admission through merit seat. I opted for B Tech,ECE( Electronics and Communication ) engineering. I love electronics and thought i could expand my knowledge. B. Tech was not at all what i expected it to be. It is more of a theory study. Practical knowledge is low.
Faculty
Like all institutions, this institution also has good and bad. This college was relatively a new college compared to other B. tech institutions. Bishop Jerome Institute also provides MBA from KTU. The teachers are fresh with not that much experience.
