Remarks

NIT Calicut has one of the best Computer Science and Engineering Department in India. It has 100% placements for the CSE students. Lot of MNCs visit and hire from NIT Calicut. Started in 1961 as REC, it bolsters a large number of alumni all over the world which can be leveraged at any point of time.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Faculty student ratio is about 1:25. Almost all of the faculty are Phds. We had two mid terms and and End semester. The exams are moderately difficult but some courses are really hard. Normally the end semester carries 50% weightage and all other exams, assignments, quizzes etc carries the other 50% weightage.

Class Size: 150Course Fees: INR 125000 per year

Placement Experience

NIT Calicut boasts one of the best placements among the NITs. Students can sit for companies in their third year for internships and in their final year for full time opportunities. Almost all of the students are placed and the rest are opting for higher studies at reputed institutes. I will be joining a product based company after my graduation.

Fee Structure And Facilities

There was no free hike during the time I studied. The fees were a nominal 125000/year. But you only had to pay either 45000/year or 5000/year depending on the income of your family. There are a lot of scholarship opportunities available for the students.

Campus Life

4.5

NIT Calicut has one of the largest number of students in any NITs. It hosts almost 6000 students at any time. This leads to having numerous clubs in the campus. The college fests, Ragam, the cultural fest and Tathva, the technical fests are considered to be the largest in South India. There are a lot of opportunities for students with different interests be it sports or other stuff.

Experiences so far

Likes

My experience at lissah has been mixing of challenges. Psychology depart has supportive teachers and classes is good
Campus is peaceful and it’s so greenery there are opportunities to take part in different academics
I also like that the psychology department has its own lab and practical exposure and Lissah is well known for psychology itself

Dislikes

I feel that there could be more programmes activities and opportunities for students to make college life
Location could feel like quiet and it’s not in town area
Those who prefer more active atmosphere I would not recommend here

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose bsc psychology because I was interested in understanding human behaviour. The curriculum covers different areas of psychology along with subjects such as major psychology minor statistics and physiology then English mdc . Since I am still in my first year I have only experienced the initial part of course

Faculties are good. Most them are very friendly
Class rooms and canteen are also good. Not the best
Fees are very low comparing to other collages

Dislikes

Not giving good placements. Only 1 or 2 good companies good. Others are average
I'm not interested hostel. But my friends in hostel always saying that the food is not good.
Some faculties are not treat all the students equal. Not every only some

Placement Experience:

Placement are not the best. But EY , federal bank, TCS are some the prominent companies that are coming. The negative thing about placement is most of them are offering marking jobs. So if you are someone who is interested in operations this is not the collage you want to in.

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.

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
