What Students Say

Likes

Food and travel are free. Nice teaching facilities.
Campus is big enough. Friendly seniors and juniors
No ragging is allowed in college. Overall a good place

Dislikes

Lab facilities are not too good .Can be made better
Construction of college is done on lake .
Not a student friendly place . That can be made a bit better

Course Curriculum Overview

I choose this course as I was interested in research. However,the faculty strength in our department is a big low. But all the faculty members teaches well and had done their phd. Semester exams will be 4 months once the semester starts. Cae 1 and 2 will be conducted with proper timing. There will be lab exams also. Passing will be easy if you listen lo class properly and read

Class Size: 63Course Fees: INR 71000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

Fees is 71000 for 1st year and 66000 for remaining 2 years. Cost friendly. Scholarship will be provided if you are the top ranker . I am not sure with stipend and all since we never got . Not sure about financial assistance too

Campus Life

3.5

There will be culturals once a year. Rather than that nothing else. Books will be provided according to you choice. there are plenty of them. Classrooms of our department can't be as said as excellent but moderate. There are sports which I am not aware of . Cubs is one of the club activity regarding science and research. Other than that there are maths club ,sports club, music club ,dance club , etc

Admission

There was an exam but I didn't write . I took direct admission for my course. But students writing and qualifying the exam should have better cut off in tuition fee . You need 10+2 (maths, physics, biology, chemistry) . Application can be done online by visiting college official website or done offline.

HIMT COLLEGE REVIEW

Likes

The faculties are very well experienced and there are captains who stay in the campus itself, so if there’s something we need they will be available all the time
The facilitieslike labs, ship in campus, DB tank facilities etc are top notch
The classrooms are fully air conditioned. There’s smart board. Overall everything is really good and also neat and clean

Dislikes

Galley food can improve a little and canteen is comparatively small for such a big campus
They are not conducting intra- college events and inter-college events is very less

Placement Experience:

Placements are really good in HIMT. I got placed in 1st year itself in MOLMI. All faculties try their best to prepare us for the placements and it shows in the placement interview also. Usually companies come for placements from 2nd year but there are some companies who want to take girl cadets 1st year itself. MOLMI, MOLTA etc came to our college for placements. After completion of the course, company will call for induction and accordingly they will call for joining the ship. For finishing the cadet ship , we have finish 12 months of sea time. After that a lot courses has to be done for appearing in 2 nd mates exam.

THE IDEAL COLLEGE LIFE!

Likes

The opportunities to meet new people and interact with a whole new circle of people by Club Activities as there are quite a lot of clubs according to the student's interest.
Many places to showcase our singing and dancing talent once we join the club or take part in any of the department events.
They have multiple labs for a single department so that the students get a lot of hands on training for coding and as well as hardware.

Dislikes

4:3 Ratio of Girls to Boys in my class and i hope it's the same for all the departments as well.
The college timing can go from 8:30 AM to 5:10PM.
The 75% attendance is kind of doable and maintainable to an extent.

Placement Experience:

about 70 to 80 percent of the students get placed afdter the colleg and the ones not placed also gets placed after the college with high network and communication from other contacts within the college, ZOHO Corp does take placements and i am preparing for my CAT exams as i am planning for My highers at IIM, 5th semester is when the students become eligible for the campus placements and the seniors are a good connection who help to get places and get a job after the completion of degree.
