The hostel fee is 3500/ month. We get a feasible 3 time meals which consists of different menus. In sundays there will be a special menu. Hostel registration is based on the cat rank and distance from college to our hometown

Admission

I chose CUSAT since it is a very famous university since 1971. A lot many renowned personalities graduated from CUSAT. There are lot of opportunities waiting smoothly students from CUSAT. Before joining CUSAT, I got admission in gec Thrissur and model engineering college Thrikkakara. But I opted out those since they are centralised with ktu which is not that better than Cochin university. I have not got any rejection from other colleges. The admission process is based on the rank we get in the CUSAT common aptitude test. Through that exam the university selects around 15000 students for the admission procedure

Faculty

There is a strong bond between student and faculty. The faculties are really friendly with the students. All the faculties are best and it also depends from person to person Talking about the exam criteria there is continuous assessment exams out of 30 and end semester exam which is out of 50. Then there is lab exams out of 25 each followed by viva.

Placements cells are supportive in terms of networking with different companies and are readily active for the students competing in getting internships and placements. The college has a tie up with different companies like Infosys , Wipro , Deloitte , IBM , NVIDIA , Deshaw Private Limited etc. Students become eligible from semester 5 onwards for on campus placements. The offers made by these companies are 8 LPA to 9 LPA by deloitte , innfosys , and IBM but the highest package is being offered by Deshaw and NVIDIA that is 60 LPA and 47 LPA. The average package is around 11 LPA and the percentage of students getting placed are above 80%. My plan after getting the degree is to work for an IT Company to get the hands on knowledge about what the current technologies demand and get experienced in that and work further upon it.
