How Rain rainwater Harvesting is done in CUSAT?

The South-West monsoon usually arrives in Kerala by May-end, it is time to devise effective strategies for rainwater harvesting and conservation. The initiative undertaken in this regard by CUSAT is a classic instance of how nature's bountiful resources can be put to optimum use to tackle water scarcity. In 2012, the Cusat campus faced a grave water crisis and had to rely on tankers to meet its water requirements. The issue prompted the university to look for solutions. Later, a decision was taken to construct a pond on the campus. Ever since the pond - constructed by the Engineering Department of the university - became a reality, water shortage became a thing of the past. The pond, with a top diameter of 47.5 m, a bottom diameter of 32 m and a maximum flood level of 8.5 m, was commissioned in 2017. The pond, which has a natural base, also acts as a groundwater recharger.

The message fees per month is around 4000 rupees. Those who are hindu OBC have almost no fees a year, like around 40,000 a year and those OBC students also get Egrants scholarship since they are Hindu OBC Since I am Christian OBC, I will not get any feedback lowering or scholarships. Since my field is male dominated, female students get scholarships to encourage more women into this field.

CUSAT: 4 Answered Questions

What is the fee structure of the CUSAT engineering college?

Ahalya BoseStudied at Cochin University (2019)

CUSAT has released the revised fee structure 2023 on the University’s official website. The institute offers undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs in a variety of fields and the fee structures for every course are different. Since you haven’t mentioned the course you are looking for, I have mentioned the CUSAT Fee Structure for the major courses

The fee for the BTech course is Rs. 46,600/-
The Fee for the BSc degree program is approximately Rs. 42,654/- for the first Semester
The fee for the MBA program is Rs. 26,555/- fee

For a detailed fee structure of the specific program you are looking for, visit the official website of the institute.

Which course should I prefer in the CUSAT with a rank of 1,500 (general), and what courses are better in the CUSAT?

Anirudh JoshiStudied at Cochin University of Science and Technology

Your options at CUSAT will vary depending on your domicile. If you are from Kerala, you can expect to get almost any branch at CUSAT with your rank. In that case, opt for Ship Tech or Safety and Fire Engineering. CS is also a good option.

If you belong to some other state, you won’t get Ship Tech or Safety and Fire. You can get the second one during spot round, if you are lucky enough. So, you’ll be left with EEE, ECE, Civil, IT, CS and Mechanical as your options. Out of these, CS and ECE are the best choices at CUSAT.

Consider your options carefully, and make the decision accordingly.

Is CUSAT a government college or a private college? What is its fee structure?

Shivam VermaStudied at Cochin University of Science and Technology

CUSAT is an autonomous government university.

For home state students, the tuition fee is around 25-26k per semester, and for students from other states, it is around 45k per semester. This is the fee structure for B.Tech, for general and OBC category students.

The fee structure may vary from one branch to another.

What are the fees if I take an admission through the spot admission in CUSAT?

Talat AzmiStudied at Cochin University Of Science and Technology (2019)

There is no difference between the fees for general round admission and the fees for spot admission. However, the fees for NRI spot admission are higher.

At the time of admission, INR 55- 60 thousand is charged in a general round admission.
For an NRI spot admission, you will be charged an amount of INR 2 Lakhs, out of which INR 1.25 Lakhs would be a security deposit.
This means that this amount would be returned to you once you finish college.

Talking about the semester fee, there is again a slight difference between general round admission and NRI spot admission. It is INR 43 thousand for general round admission and INR 55 thousand for NRI spot admission.
