College Infrastructure

The college does provide necessary infrastructural facilities, but there are few areas where I believe there is need for improvement. The computer labs need to be further improved as majority of the systems are old and need to be changed. WiFi is currently being installed in the campus, so we can expect it to start functioning soon. Every classrooms are provided with projectors for digital learning. Libraries are great with a vast range of books and journals.

Academics

I am currently in my final year of CSE. College has always depended upon the Computer Science Branch for the good results. Quality of teaching is good with what its currently providing, but I believe it should change. The curriculum needs to be updated to include new technologies. I won't say that the current curriculum makes us job-ready.

Placements

Now, the quality of placements at our college is very good. An excellent Training and Placement Cell functions inside the campus due to which the students are getting ample training in technical and non-technical areas to get them prepared for the placement drives. 70-80% students gets placed every year. Our college is one among the premium institutes considered by TCS. Other recruiters include Cognizant, Infosys, Dexlock, Quest-Global etc.

Value-for-money

I am paying 65,000 per year. Yes, I feel its worth it. The college is one of the very few colleges that we would find which has all basic facilities available within 1km around it. Railway Station, KSRTC bus station, Police station, hospitals etc are all situated very near to the college. The college is at the heart of Chengannur town. Other than that, its certain that we'll get placed into some great companies if we put a little effort. stat

Campus Life

College campus has several good things about it. The environment is very pleasant so it makes our minds calm and composed. There are areas where we can go and sit at free times. Activities includes Sports, NSS, NCC etc. An excellent IEEE Student Branch also allows us to get involved in technical activities. Students are all really friendly, teachers and support staff are supportive. Location as I mentioned before is at the heart of the town. Yes, its safe. All emergencies can be handled.

College Infrastructure

College infrastructure facilities are not much affordable at it's peak. But maintanance are being made through it's demand. Hostel facilities are provided with good accomodation and food. Library has a vast collection of books and journels. Students are accssible to all the books according to their needs.facilities are well maintained.

Academics

Btech in computer science and engimeering. Statistical rate shows more demand towars this field. More jobs are being also offered to this course. Computer science in this college is more rated. Provides high efficiency lectures. Teachers are well deducated. Theories and practicals are well being explained and taught. Curriculum needs to be updated very well. Needed to be more updated and well versed with the recent technologies and developments.

Placements

It is one of the best college under the ihrd institution. For the previous year 8 lakh per annum is being offered as the highest salary package. Well training is being provided for the students, making them enough capable to run the organisations by themselves. Placement processes are really preferable. Student organisations are really supportive in any aspect.various companies offer placements to the campus.

Value-for-money

On each year the fee is about 35000 on the merit basis and 70000 under the management quota. Yes the money really worth. Beyond academic studies the workshops conducted as being the part of earning the extra skills is often offered at low prices. If utilising beneficially, best outcomes are being achieved. These are also being undertaken by the students and execom members. Self education is given more priority under proper guidance.

Campus Life

One of the special feature of the cec is it's IEEE studnt branch. IEEE CEC is an exemplary feature which contribute more professionalism towards the individual growth. Through these various oppirtunities students gain personal development and career oppurtunities. NSS and NCC organisations are also another distinct feature of cec.students itself are being really trained and also empover the other members also towards many aspects. College is located at the center of city, so transport is easier.

Anything Else

Cec provides the oppurtunity to explore within themselves. Beyond the educational purpose it provides a real oppurtunity for all students for their professional, careerand individual development. Teamwork spirit and many more. Eventhough infrastructure facilities shows quiet deficiency, the college provides the best facilities for the student progress.transportation facility is better. Being part of cec is a real feeling. Wide oppurtunities are being offered at any field.

Placements

The best quality of the college. The students are given many training sessions on both technical and soft skills during their 4th year.About 82% of students got placed.As it is one of the selected colleges of TCS, many students got placed there.

Campus Life

It has a really good vibe. There are many places in the campus to sit and study in a calm atmosphere. There are a lot of clubs but, most of them are not promoted efficiently. As all fests and competitions are conducted after 5 pm it is difficult for day scholars to participate in it.

Anything Else

It is a good choice if you are a hostler but i don't recommend it i f you are planning to be a day scholar.

Awesome college life. The perfect place to enjoy your college life. Not so bad infrastructure and good faculty. Although the labs are all below average. Not much of ragging. No politics. Although a lot of people have tried to introduce. Not much scope for sports. We have a cricket basketball and football team and hosts our own inter-college football tournament. And intercourse football and basketball and inter-batch football.

Although I've just started my course at this college, it's turning out to be the best days of my life, CEC has everything you expect from a professional college. good faculty,placements..etc. The IEEE committee is very active and conducts regular workshops and programs. Cec was the first college in Kerala to be WiFi enabled and also the first to have IEEE committee. although the college does not have some of the new equipment or a **new stylish campus** but it provides quality of education and will bring the best out everyone, i recommend my college to anyone reading this review .
