What Students Say

Likes

My college have higher placement rate than colleges
They provide many opportunities for my career building and skill enhancement
Very attending nature and ragging free environment in my college

Dislikes

My college is smaller in size comparing to other campuses
Lack of teacher student communication in events and planning
Lack of ventilation and cooling in summer times

Course Curriculum Overview

Curriculum provided by our university in very bad and not a one that consider teachers and students needs and opinions. They are theory based and do not provide skills for real world experience. But I heard the new curriculum provided for the new commers in 2024 is pretty good and it's an improvement .

Class Size: 70Course Fees: INR 70000 per year

Internships Opportunities

I am a electrical major and my department provides a vast number if internships from many companies like IBM, KSEB, Kalkitech etc. I had an internship at KSEB and had a great experience with the employees and improved my skill set

Placement Experience

As I say my college has the second highest placement rate in Kerala and it offers many multinational companies like Apple , Google ,Twitter, Tata etc. you will be eligible for the placement from 6th semester onwards and average pack is 100000 rupees. You should atleast have a 8.5 cgpa to apply for placement drives as many companies have a cgpa cuttoff

Fees and Financial Aid

I am paying 70000 rupees yearly. I am studying in my college in management quota so I have to pay more while my classmates who are in merit quota have to pay 40000 yearly even though I have higher rank than them. I have applied for scholarships but I didn't get any of them.

Campus Life

My college is known for the number of clubs we have . I'm a member of NSS in my college and it has improved my experience and skills a lot. Our techfest named Excel is in January this year and it's the second largest techfest in south india. We have a great library with many books and big ground for sports events

Admission

I applied several colleges with this college but I selected my college because it's closer to my home and have second highest placement rate in Kerala. My parents wanted me to be day scholar so I focused on getting on a college that is closer to me. Admission process is through University allotments and you should pass the KEAM exam.

Faculty

Faculties and other staffs in my department are good and very helping. But the curriculum and syllabus provided by the University in very bad and it is affecting their abilility to teach. The syllabus provided only 3 months for studying in a semester and it causes rushing and skipping of portions. Personally I like all our faculties. Exams are not proportionate and are rushed .

My Experience at NIT Calicut

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would rate the EEE course curriculum around 8-8.5 /10 in terms of relevance.The curriculum provides strong fundamentals in core electrical engineering subjects and prepares students well for core jobs and higher studies.The course curriculum was revised in 2023, and our batch is the 1st batch under the new curriculum. however, there are still limited coding ,AI and data science subjects in EEE ,which could be improved. Exams are conducted times per semester and are generally moderately difficult.

CSE student at JEC

Placement Experience:

The placements here are quite good, but not great. Because only 50% of students in a class are getting placed. From S7 onwards the placements have been started for our department. But for other departments, from S8 only companies have arrived. For CSE department, many companies are coming which include Cognizant, SOTI, Mitsogo, EY, 6D Technologies, etc. Our senior batch students have placed at many companies in this. But comparing with other senior batches, the placements at our batch is really bad.

MEC EEE REVIEW

I applied to cet, tkm, gec for branches eee and ec My first option was cet for which i couldn't get admission due to my rank. Cet requires rank below 1000. And my second option was mec (my college). I choose this college over gec and tkm because it was in my home town itself and it had better placement opportunities. But cant compare mec with gec and tkm in terms of college life, campus area, facilities....Read More

Good for social life but very minimal infrastructure and facilities

The reason I chose this college over other options were due to the prime location in which it is present and due to the city it is present in . MEC is renowned for the placement opportunities available in this college and is placed in the top 3 colleges in Kerala in terms of placemenets . The admission is based on the student's KEAM rank and this rank decides whether you get the Merit seat or management seat . For others you also have an NRI seat . One other college i applied to was GEC Thrissur and i chose this over GECT was due to placements and location ....Read More
