The hostel atmosphere is comfortable for studies and student life. The mess food is average with both vegetarian and non vegetarian options.

Admission

I choose Cochin University Of science and technology for Mtech Instrumentation Technician beacuse of its good reputation, affordable fees, and experienced faculty, and better focus on core technical subjects. I also got admission to Delhi University, but i prefer CUSAT because it was more affordable and better suited for instrumentation and automation studies. Admission to CUSAT is mainly based on GATE score and eligibility in a relevant BTech degree.The admission procees include online application and a exam DAT , rank list based on DAT , documenr verification, and fee payment. The overall process was simple and smooth

Faculty

4

The faculty members are experienced and technically strong. Most teachers are friendly, approachable and helpful for academics,projects and research work. The faculty student ratio is good since Mtech batches are small , so students got better interactions with professors. Some faculty members are very supportive and teachers explain concepts with practical examples are usually liked by students. However, a few faculty members are very theory oriented and strict im evaluation, which some students may not prefer. The course curriculum is relevant and covers subjects like industrial automation, process control, embedded systems, signal processing and research oriented topics. Labs,seminars, project works , and a final year thesis are also included. The exam system is moderately difficult and includes internal exams , assignments, seminars, and end semester university exams. Marks arr divided between internal assessments and external marks. Students who attend classes regularly and study consistently can clear exams and failure rate is generally low in Mtech batches

Course Curriculum Overview:

Data Science is a rising field in computer science. It has lots of oppurtunities in todays world and easy compared to other fields, which made me choose data science. The curriculum consist of various computer programming languages including Python, R and so on which are vital in the field of data science. There are also experienced faculties for teaching of the programming languages. I personally felt that lab hours are not adequate and also the available hours are also not properly utitlised by some teachers. At the end of each semester we have exams and results are published soon as the exams are over, no lagging compared to other universitites.

They are good in many things but need to be improved in some areas. They must keep mineral water or drinking water in every block for students that's an essential thing and the notification to students in every area need to be improved.
