Remarks :
The college is quite small and only 4 different branches are there. It's one of the disadvantage because all other colleges are build on acres of land. Even though the college is small the facilities are of high standards. We have a ground for football and another for basketball and volleyball. Teachers support us for extra curricular activities. They are supportive and helpful. A few teachers are strict but overall they are supportive. The canteen us also small and the food is just ok.
Entrance Preview :
I took KEAM (kerala entrance exam) entrance to get into model engineering college. My rank was 3505 and this made me eligible to join model engineering college. I already planned to chose computer science because I loved everything about computers. We use computers for almost everything now a days and the scope and job opportunities for computer science is very high. Model engineering college is very famous for its placement records and facilities hence I opted for this college.
Course Curriculum Overview :
The course is quite simple and interesting. It's more of practical programming than mugging up notes. Hence it's easier to understand and learn. The new programming languages like python is interesting.
Internships Opportunities :
Many startups have been coming for taking in interns. A month back cognicor held a coding competition for selecting students for internships. A lot of companies offer high amount of money for internships.
Placement Experience :
Almost 95% students get placed in huge companies like musigma, myntra, Amazon, yahoo etc. Placements happen at 7th semester. Average package by myntra is 15lakhs per annum. Almost every week at least one company arrives for the placement drive. Generally a aptitude test and group discussion is done to reduce the number of candidates and then the interview is done. A lot of students from external Institutes come for the interview at times.
College Events :
Our college is famous for its techno managerial fest called Excel. It was one of the first technical fests to be held in india after techfest iit Bombay. It is a 3 day event held in the month of September. More than 10000 students from various part of India arrive to participate for the event. There are like 80+ technical and non technical events and 1 million rupees at stake. It's one of the best technical festival in kerala.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
Loans can be availed from the banks. The government gives scholarship for the students. And 5 students in general category from each branch is given fee waiver ie no tuition fee. There are other scholarship based on caste and reservations.
Campus Life :
The life is very exciting here. There are equal amount of girls and boys in each class. There are many clubs and each month they organise events for the students. There is no politics in our college. Different workshops on ethical hacking, Linux kernels, electrical safety and robotics are arranged. There is no discrimination and the college is ragging free. Parties in dorms are not allowed which is sad but in one way is good because no liquor is allowed on the college premises.
Hostel Facilities :
Only mens hostel is there in our college. The priority of admission is based on the distance of their homes from the college. The approximate cost per month for one month is 3000rs in which food is also included. The food is good and non veg is available at 2 different days of the week. There are other private hostels for girls close to the college.
Alumni/Alumna :
The main reason for the good placement is due to our alumni. Our senior's are friendly and helpful from what I experienced. They help us in our projects if we have any doubts. Many of the startups are by our senior's which come for internships.
Faculty :
The faculty and facilities in our college is very good and is one of the first few engineering colleges to be started in india.
