The thing is that a degree in MBA has a huge opportunity to do anything individually, rather than the institution. SOMS NITC provides immense opportunities to the students.
The syllabus may be quite similar to the other institutes, but this institute has an exceptional teaching staff quality. Additionally, the teachers mainly come from NITC, in the case of some specific subjects, which enhances the course's ultimate value.
Besides, the infrastructure facilities of this institute are just impressive. Moreover, it is considered the best among the whole NITC. Placement statistics are also outstanding as many students from this institute get placed, although they do not get much higher packages.
The following table shows the placement statistics of the institute:

The infrastructure is splendid and is considered to be the best among the entire NITC. Most of the students get placed, though the packages offered are not quite high. The students of this institute have developed several committees and forums so that the placement statistics can be enhanced and internship opportunities and public relations can be taken care of.
SOMS, NIT Calicut offers good opportunities to its MBA students. The curriculum is at par with other institutes offering this program and you will get a distinguished faculty. Many teachers from the NIT Calicut main campus visit SOMS to teach certain subjects, thus enhancing the value of this course.
The SOMS infrastructure is great and considered to be the best in the entire NIT Calicut. The students are placed with decent packages. To increase the placements, students have created committees and forums to look after placements, internships and public relations.
These are the 2022 placement figures for MBA at NITC-

I would say that an MBA has to do more with you than the college. If you work hard and groom yourself according to industry standards, any college is good enough for you.
Well, the answer is, it is completely depended on the branch that the student selects. However, the students' board examination and caste percentage also matter a lot in this regard.
Thereby, the actual thing is that if the student is from the OBC category and has 92% in the previous board examination, then only 160 marks are just enough to get right of entry in any decent branch, including Civil, EEE, Mech etc. but, if the student wants to get admission in CSE or ECE, then he or she has to score 180-190, at the minimum.
In the following previous year, cut-off (2020) is listed so that the student could find it beneficial.

However, a student can easily explore as well as predict what colleges shall be available on the basis of his or her JEE Mains ranks. If a student scores at least 200+ in the JEE Main, then there is a chance to get a good stream in a good institute.
One of my friends, who studied at NIT Calicut, once told me some overrated things that a student may experience in NIT Calicut. The followings are the most overrated things that the students may get in NIT Calicut.
Everyone wants to join clubs mainly in their first year that is ICA, ISTE, and LnD. In the following, some reasons are highlighted why the students want to join this.
Thus, it can be concluded that these overrated things in NIT Calicut are actually beneficial for the student as it helps them in personal development. Club culture in NIT Calicut helps a student to build a network, which is advantageous for their future career development plan.
According to my brother, these are the best teachers at the Department of CSE, NIT Calicut-
All these professors have immense trust in the integrity and potential of their students. All of them have a great connection with their students which enables them to deliver their lectures in the most perfect manner. Thus, these are the teachers at CSED, NIT Calicut who inspired my brother to work harder for his goals.
One of my friends was a student of NIT Calicut and a relative of mine is an alumnus of the College of Engineering Trivandrum. So the answer will be a comparison of their experiences.

CET students also get a lot of freedom as NIT students. They get ample time to do whatever they want.
NIT Surathkal and NIT Calicut both are considered among the top NITs. According to the overall NIRF Ranking NIT Surathkal has been better than NIT Calicut. Having some friends studying in both these institutes, I can say that It totally depends on the aspect you are looking for.
Categories | NIT Surathkal | NIT Calicut |
Course Fee | 5.4 lakh | 5.48 lakh |
Highest CTC | 17 LPA | 14-16 LPA |
Average CTC | 9 LPA | 6-7 LPA |
Recruiting Companies | Cognizant, TCS, Wipro, IBM, etc. | Infosys, Capgemini, Accenture, HP, etc. |
In terms of education and placement students prefer to go to NIT Calicut and hence it would be the better option of the two.
The campus life of NIT Calicut is quite good compared to other institutes, but cannot be considered as a campus with excellent facilities. The campus life mostly depends on how you want to spend your years and cope up with the pressure and life altogether. A generalized overview of NIT Calicut is described below in points.
Among all, students on the campus learn to adjust to circumstances, make friends, explore the environment and make the best use of available resources in NIT Calicut. The campus life is all about fun and interests, and NIT Calicut is a place worth it.
For EE/EEE, out of NIT Surathkal, NITW, NIT Trichy, MANIT Bhopal, MNNIT Allahabad, NIT Calicut, and MNIT Jaipur, I would suggest three institutes in the following order of preference-
My best friend is studying EEE at NITK and he is quite happy with the department. The teachers in the department are a bit strict. But if you bring up a good project idea and stay attentive in their class, you’ll be in a good position. Also, scoring good grades can be a bit tough, but with hardwork and good preparation, you will surely ace your exams.
In terms of EEE placements, NITK, NIT Trichy, and NITW are all equally good options.
As a NITK student, you will get certain benefits. These are-
Thus, out of NIT Calicut, NITK, NITW, and all the other options listed by you, I would suggest you to choose NITK Surathkal for your EEE.
Students from both these institutes will have a bias for their respective colleges. If you ask IIIT Bangalore students, they will recommend you choose their college. The same is the case for NIT Calicut students.
Reach out to one senior from both these colleges who belongs to the CSE department. Ask them about the infrastructure, faculty, curriculum, placements, and other important aspects of their respective department. Don’t ask an NITC student about IIITB, and vice versa. This is because they might have misconceptions about the other institute.
I would recommend IIIT Bangalore. The institute has top-notch faculty, placements, research facilities, campus quality, and hostels. Moreover, it doesn’t follow any reservation criteria for admissions, unlike NITC.
Try to approach seniors from both these colleges, and research a bit on the IIIT Bangalore CSE department. Also, IIIT Bangalore offers iM.Tech in CSE, and not B.Tech.
