Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

I'm currently studying in 4th year of Btech biotechnology. I was interested in genetics since 10th grade. So I opted for biotechnology here.Our class size is 28.There are around more than 15 faculties in our department.Each of them teaches different courses.There will be a faculty advisor for each class. Most of the faculties are taken PhD from abroad universities.There will be a mid term examination before the end semester examination for the evaluation. Also, there will be assignments and quizzes for internal assessment. There is sufficient time for studying.

Class Size: 28Course Fees: INR 62500 per year

Internships Opportunities

2.5

Kalliyath tmt with a stipend of 6000 per month Goldman Sachs with 1 lakh per month Many other companies also provide internships within the campus as well Online internship is also provided There is a main project in the 4th year

Placement Experience

The placement starts from the 7th semester onwards. A minimum CGPA requirement is asked for by some companies. TATA and BAJAJ offered company placement the previous year Goldman Sachs offered internships this year The percentage of students differs according to the branches. Computer science has 100% placement. But, In lower branches like biotechnology has no branch placements. I'm planning to go aboard for MS.

Fees and Financial Aid

Here the fee structure varies based on the family income of the student. The student with a family income of more than 5 lakh wants to pay semester fees of around 62.5k.If the income is between 1 lakh and 5 lakh the fees are around 25k (approximate). if the income is below 1 lakh the semester is around 4000. There are many scholarships are provided. Egrants(for OBC and SC/ST students) are one of them, which reduces the hostel fees and mess fees. There are many companies that offers internship with stipend like kalliyath TMT, nestle etc

Campus Life

There are two main fests in our college. One is ragam which is South India's largest cultural fest. Which is conducted in the month of March. It is usually a 3 days fest with different art forms like kolkali, and duff mutt. Also, there will be shows of celebrity singers. Our tech fest is tattva. Which is usually conducted in October for 3 days. There are many technical workshops during Tathva.WHEELS is the important event that takes place during Tathva. Our classrooms are nice with enough air circulation and light. There are some classes with AC. College give importance to outdoor sports like cricket, football.as well as indoor sports like chess, boxing.There are many clubs for students entertainment.Some of them are Dnd,TAC,Lnd,ica.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

For 1st year 4 students want to share a room. For 2nd & 3rd 2 students want to share a room. And for final years seperate room will be provided for each student. All rooms contain fans, lights, an almirah and a bed. The bathrooms are too good. There will be south Indian as well as North Indian food in the mess. breakfast, lunch, and supper will be provided. The registration is within the campus in the hostel office.

Hostel Fee: INR 52000 per year

Based on the jee main entrance exam score, you can get admission at nit calicut. I had 96.5 percentile in jee main. There will be a cutoff for each department in nit calicut. The cutoff may vary. you can check their official site nitc.ac.in for application purposes. The information about reservation benefits is also there. I got an OBC reservation seat. There are reservation quotas for SC/ST and OBC students.

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.

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.
