Remarks

Excellent college, great atmosphere, good labs, well experienced staff and good curriculum. The college mainly lacks a good hostel. College bus facility is also limited to a bare minimum. Labs were equipped with the latest and best equipment.

Entrance Preview

KEAM entrance exam. My rank was around 6000.I wanted to do engineering from a Government college. I had many options in mind, but with the score I had, the only option I would get was this college. Also, I was very much interested in the programme I chose.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Curriculum was revised just about 2 years before i joined. So the syllabus was up to date and contained all the required latest technologies of that time. The teachers were also quite equipped as the new regulation was in place for the last two years.

Internships Opportunities

Internships were compulsory and we had to find it on our own. No stipend was given to us for the internship. Some industries gave stipend to those who got job there.

Placement Experience

3.5

Mainly software companies came to our college. There were no core jobs on offer. Only one company came with core job and I got it. Some students in mechanical engineering department and chemical engineering department got core job.

College Events

All festivals like Onam, Christmas, Holi etc. We had college day celebration, union inauguration celebration etc. Then there was college election and the celebration for that.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Government college fee was Rs. 6000/- per year.There was a monthly college bus charge which was not too much. Main expense was for hostel which was private.

Fees and Financial Aid

None that I know. There were some for the low income students and backward community which was offered by government.

Campus Life

4.5

Extra curricular was limited due to the lack of initiative from the faculty who were already overloaded. FOSS group was active and many activities were carried out.

Hostel Facilities

External hostel. Nice food, good facility, but too expensive. Lack of college hostel was a big problem.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Most senior students got job in core industries. They were our inspiration to try and get a core job. Alumni chapter is quite strong conducting frequent meets which are well organized.

Exam Structure

We had two internal exams for 100 marks, which would be taken into the final internals on 50.A university exam for 100 marks.Lab was assessed internally

Faculty

Excellent teaching faculty with quite a lot of experience in teaching as well as industry. We had teachers from other branches who taught domain specific topics giving us a feel of an interdisciplinary course.

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.
