Remarks

Good thing is that we are lucky to have studied in a reputed college and in a good location. Bad thing is that we had lost a semester due to water shortage.

Entrance Preview

I have written All Kerala Entrance Exam and I got a rank of 738. I got an option to choose between 2-3 Colleges, of which i have chosen NSS college of Engg Palakkad, Kerala.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

There were 8 Semesters and there were internal exams for each curriculum. A total of 52 papers. Also there was a course project and seminar which needs to be submitted in the eight semester.

Placement Experience

Since the early 2000's was a kind of recession period not much companies came and the recruitment cell was also not that great. So we tried outside and registered in some external agencies.

College Events

We had the Annual celebration each year which is a cultural event. Also we had some technical fests each year to enhance the curriculum knowledge. We were the active participants in those.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fees structure were those described as per the Govt standards. it was around 1200 Rs every year with a total course fee of below 5000 Rs. The exam fee needs to be paid extra.

Fees and Financial Aid

I have availed a scholarship of 2000 rs as per my merit on the SSLC board exam. But it took a lot of time for getting that since its a Government college :)

Campus Life

The gender ratios were 3:1 in my department which is Electronics and communications. There was politics though due to which we have lost some of the days.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

The hostel facilities were average and the Mess food was just OK. Non vegetarian dishes were there twice in a month. The average rentals paid during that time was 500 Rs for a room with sharing.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

We are having a nice relationship with our college seniors. Even now we are maintaining the relationship through Email groups, facebook and whatsapp. We are organising several get together parties as a part of it.

Exam Structure

The exams were a kind of hectic as we are looking into the subjects at the last moment and were sleeping for 4-5 hours before the exam day. The labs were cool.

Faculty

3.5

The faculty was good and the standards were ok. Since it was a Govt Engineering college the lab facilities were not that good. But the teaching standards were good.

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.

Decent infrastructure. hostel infrastructure is also clean and better than most colleges

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.

Placement Experience:

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.

Review of TOC H institute of science and technology

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

Review about Toc H Institute of Science and Technology

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.

Doubt on admission?? Read this

I had applied for top colleges in Kerala for Engineering studies. I got admitted to NSSCE. I'm so glad that I'm a student of NSSCE. Admission to NSS College of Engineering. Mainly through KEAM Entrance examination conducted by the government of Kerala: General Quota, Reservation Quota are through KEAM Entrance examination of that year. You should have good marks in PCM subjects in the 12th standard. You should perform well in the KEAM Entrance examination of that year. Try solving Objective questions as many as possible. You definitely have to work hard to get admission to premium colleges like NSSCE. Management Quota admission: Should have good marks in 12th standard. Should quality KEAM Entrance examination of that year. Should have a good academic performance history. Admission to NSSCE is highly competitive. Since NSSCE is one of the colleges with a very high placement rate. Big MNC's like TCS, INFOSYS, WIPRO, CTC, ALSTOM, EY etc are always major players in the NSSCE placement drive....Read More

JAHFAR SADIQUE's Review On NSS College of Engineering - [NSSCE], Palakkad

I had studied my higher secondary course in a subject combination of Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology(science). Along with the higher secondary course I went for entrance coaching in a coaching centre. I was more interested in mathematics than biology so I focussed on engineering entrance exams. After entrance admission to engineering colleges are based on allotments set by our priority and merit. I opted NSS college of engineering since it is good academics and facilities among the engineering colleges in Kerala and also it is the closer my native district. The college has a nice ambience, qualified faculties, better facilities and very active in academics and co-curricular activities. Also, I opted for the mechanical engineering course since I am an enthusiast in automobile engines and working. Also, our college provides better laboratory facilities in all departments with experienced lab assistants....Read More
