What Students Say

Likes

The labs are well established and maintained. Old but good.
Library has more than enough copies of the books referred in the syllabus.
Chapters like ASME, SAE, IEEE and IEDC are very active and are participating in national level competition and winning.

Dislikes

Some faculties are not at all sincere about teaching.
Eventhough the association has a volleyball cum basketball cum badminton court facility in the auditorium just in front of the college, they will never allow volleyball or basketball to participate there.
The events are repetitive and boring. Need to improve.

Course Curriculum Overview

The core papers are designed to make you build an engineering eye. The exams are hard. There are two internal exams and one end semester examination. Since the new batch is academically autonomous, the syllabus has been widened with more non credit coursesnas well.

Class Size: 120Course Fees: INR 15000 per year

Internships Opportunities

You have to attend two internships before the placements starts. The companies in the ernakulam or cochin offers more internship opportunities. I did an internship at Kochi Water Metro for 15 days in my third semester.

Placement Experience

Students become eleigible for campus placements from the sixth semester. TCS, CTS, Wipro are the main techno companies and Bosch is one of the main core companies. The percentage of students getting core jobs is less but in IT fields it's not an issue.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yearly I hav to pay around 15000 for academic purposes. Other than that there is additional sports and arts fee, PTA fees etc. There is fees consumption for EWS, FWD,SC and ST. There is also other benefits for ST.

Campus Life

There are two festivals. The arts and cultural festival occurs in the even semester. It is called 'Sanskriti'. The technical fest occurs in the odd semester known as 'Takshak'. Clubs or Chapters are a huge part of the student society.

Admission

I applied to Government Engineering College - Thrissur, College of Engineering - Trivandrum, Thangal Kunju Musliar College - Kollam. The reason I didnt get into these colleges is because my rank in KEAM was low. You have to take KEAM exam to get into Engineering colleges in Kerala. If you have the sufficient rank to fill up the seats in tge college you are accepted.

Faculty

The faculties are sufficient but some are not at all cooperative. The faculties in charge of chapters like ASME and SAE are very helpful in our programs. There are 2 internal exams and one external exam. The internal marks add upto 50 and ESE 100, giving a total of 150 marks

Night Life

For the men's hostel the timing is from 6 in the morning to 9pm in the night. For the ladies' hostel it is fro 6.30 to 7 pm in the evening. There are about 4 gyms in a 500m radius from the college junction. The town is only 1 km away from the college. It has hotels, electronics shop, mobile service, theatres etc

This college is not what it seems in the first look.

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.

Navigating MACE: A student's journer Through Campus Life, Academics and Oppurtunities.

I chose this college over other colleges primarily for its autonomous status. This allows MACE to have more current and industry relevent curiculum unlike colleges with fixed university syllabus. Admission to MACE was based on keam rank. Although I had a good rank, it wasnt high enough to get my preferred branch in NIT calicut or CET. Rather than settling for different course at these colleges I chose MACE because of its reputation and specialized curiculum were a better fit for my goals....Read More
