    I am indebted to this college for all those memories

    College Infrastructure

    College has all the necessary infrastructure and especially mechanical department has different workshops and even upgraded 3D printing and fab lab. We have smart classrooms. Also both men's and Ladies hostel facilities are good

    Academics

    Quality of teaching is very much good. There are numerous journals published under faculties which shows their knowledge. Inter-state and intra-state competitions make us job ready. But curriculum needs much updation.

    Placements

    College has an active placement cell. Sometimes even one student may get more than two placements. Placement offers never goes below 3.5 lakhs. Mercedes and Shobha constructions packages are among the highest ones.

    I am really happy to have done my graduation from RIT kottay

    College Infrastructure

    We really have a huge campus with well equipped lab and workshop. We also have a good playground and a proper gym for both females and males . The one darkside of the huge campus is that we have to travel a lot for all kind of stuff

    Academics

    Academic wise we have a really good faculty team to support us in our academics. We were also blessed to have proper workshop staffs and assistance from them really helped us in our 4 year journey. I

    Placements

    I passed out in 2022 which was just after the aftermath of Covid 19 , hence we were deprived partially of the placement benefits however the following year students had really good opportunities and they have nailed it too.

    It was a memorable college experience.

    College Infrastructure

    Very good infrastructure.Well furnished lab and workshops for all streams.There are three dedicated buildings for mechanical engineering workshops and labs alone,that makes the college best for mechanical engineering projects ,all over in state.I 've personally seen other college students using the fab lab of our college.

    Academics

    Academics is far better when compared with other colleges. RIT always comes in top 10 among all other colleges in state(which is 140 in number approx) ,in all semester results of APJKTU.Also,since it is a government funded college(among 12 others in kerala),teachers are very much qualified.Most of them has PhDs,and mulltiple citations in different journals.Multiple student technical bodies like IEEE,SAE,IEDC etc..also provides avenues for academic advancement of students.

    Placements

    Placements records are quite good. Top MNCs like Oracle,L & T come evry year,and give decent packages.(Oracle usually offers 14lakh CTC).Along with usual recruiters like CTS,Infosys,TCS come every year.Apart from software companies ,branch specific comapnies also come for recruitment( Sobha constructions and L & T: Civil,Mechanical , VVDN tech ,DC technologies,Mahindra Cerium :-for EEE,ECE)

    Value for Money

    Definietly.It is a state funded college,so fees is just 8500 per year.As it is state funded,no compromise will be there in the avenues provided,like the qualifications of teachers,hostel facilities.Private colleges in kerala usually charge 1 lakh per year.Comparing to that,this college is totally worth of money.

    Campus Life

    As it is a government college,much interference won't be there from the faculty,in student affairs.Students do most of their activities as their own,like student professional bodies like IEEE,SAE and all.That makes the campus more vibrant and active.Active campus politics and cultural programmes evcen make the campus life more colourfull.There are other activities like sports tournaments,quizzing club,dancing club etc....for extra curricular oppurtunities.More details can be found in college website and wikipedia.

    Writing a review about my college fully based on my e.

    College Infrastructure

    The college infrastructure are well maintained because there is a separate buildings for the different departments and they are strongly builted.Also one centralized Library and specific library for each departments.

    Academics

    I am choosen the course of batchelor's degree in mechanical engineering at Rajiv Gandhi Institute Of technology.The curriculum is very relevant because it's not teach only the theory but also make or prepare ourselves to tackle the real life issues.

    Placements

    There are different companies like L&T, infosys, G10X are coming every year to the purpose of placements.The quality of placements are very good and around 51% students are placed in every batch. The highest salary package is around two lakh and average salary is around 1 lakh .

    I can definitely give a clear picture of the college life

    College Infrastructure

    Large college with lots of natural treasure. Lots of area in the college. Each departments separated and farther from each other. Cafeteria for spending intervals. Good canteen and food at cheap rate. Hostel well furnished and girls hostel very neat and clean. Hostel food is manageable with low mess fee. Smart boards in all classes. And fully equipped labs especially the concrete and Geotechnical lab.

    Academics

    Teachers with high qualification are present. Very well behaved and student friendly but strict sometimes. Very much dedicated in completing the portions. Very high quality teaching. Good understanding but sometimes Very punctuality.

    Placements

    Very much placements from IT and Electronics Department. But less for Civil engineers which means core sector. Gate coaching in certain Department also available. About 80 percent placement in certain departments.

    Value for Money

    Course coast just 8500 per year. Very much low compared to private colleges. Worth more than money.

    Campus Life

    Very peace and calm. Very friendly atmosphere, lots of extra curricular activities included in the campus. Friendly and fests well organised and enjoyable. Hostel life also Very enjoyable

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    RIT Kottayam is equipped with its own mechanical engineering lab which is a plus. This has provided me with invaluable hands-on experience, allowing me to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application.

    Academics

    The college is accredited, and the faculty of Mechanical Engineering is one of the best in all the government engineering colleges in Kerala. They were also really helpful regarding the final year projects.

    Placements

    They have one of the best placement committees, which played a crucial role in shaping my career. Thanks to their continuous support and well-structured placement process, I was able to secure two on-campus placements by the end of my bachelor's degree.

    Value for Money

    Since it is funded by the kerala state government, we had to pay 8000 rs approximately as semester fees. This is a lot cheaper and better value for money considering other private institutions which charge way more for less quality

    A Valuable Opportunity to review the institution.

    College Infrastructure

    The College has state of the art infrastructure in certain branches of Engineering including a Fab Lab with 3D printing. However the maintenance of the infrastructure is not so good as indicated by the poor state of many of the laborotories.

    Academics

    The college has competent faculty who inspires excellence from the students. It is one among the Top 5 Engineering colleges in the state and is declared a Centre of Excellence by the APJ Abdul Kalam Technological Univerty. However, the curriculum is not up to date and could be revised to reflect market needs.

    Placements

    The college has considereble placement opportunities especially in Computer Science and Electronics and Communications Engineering with mass recruiters like TCS constantly hiring a considerable workforce from the college. It also has noteworthy placement in other branches like Mechanical Engineering

    Value for Money

    As it is a Government College the fee and expenses are extremely low and hence it yields the highest value for money. The tution fee is as low as ₹13000 per year and with scholarships even these could be covered.

    Campus Life

    The Campus is a little bit less engaging when compared to other Government Engineering colleges. Although, profession related students organisations like IEEE, SAE etc function well, the overall engagement of students in extra-curricular activities is compararively low. However several opportunities await those students who excel in sports as the Campus hosts a wide range of Sports tournaments including the prestigious Kick Off Tournament held by the Department of Mechanical Engineering.

    Others

    The campus prepared me with a great set of skills useful in professional and personal life. Far more than the formal education it imparted I value the lifelong connections it gifted me.

    The best experience in my entire life

    College Infrastructure

    College has the best infrastructure. Each department has their own buildings and labs. All of them are properly functioning. RIT has 2 cafeterias and a big Canteen. College library has thousands of books. And a very large play ground and basketball court.

    Academics

    Rajiv Gandhi institute of technology is pioneer in Kerala engeneering education. It has been at top ten for decades. Some batches made 1st rank too . Students who are joining are the top ranked students.

    Placements

    Placements are plenty. Major companies like IBM, infosys, vipro, TCS, GE, plastic ominum... are came to select our brilliant heads. Most of the students got placed with high pay scales. Some students had more than one placement with the help of our placement cell.

    Great campus to study

    College Infrastructure

    Good infrastructure and campus. All the facilities are adequate like library laboratories and the setting up of buildings... spacious campus and facilities for sports and arts too...still expanding the campus..so it's good

    Academics

    Teachers are excellent...they support really well and understanding...give importance to academics and futuristic...teachers guide us really well...do things in a practical way and everything is taken care of

    Placements

    Placements are pretty good comparatively but need to improve ....they are trying really well to bring placements to campus... Even companies outside India is hiring...using their alumini network to bring placements to campus...

    Value for Money

    Absolutely...as it's a govt college with less fee and good academics....if you are planning for a BTech in Kerala then it is a good option to consider RIT in it...we will even get scholarship and hotels in lesser expense

    Campus Life

    Memorable experience...great.

    Others

    The college has helped me to be a better human being.

    College Infrastructure

    Well equipped classrooms, proper workshops and labs. The campus is pretty large. The auditorium needs to be renovated. it is quite small for a big college like this. Everything you need is available inside the campus.

    Academics

    I studied Mechanical engineering B.Tech at this institution. I chose this institute because of its reputation. The institute has a good mix of young and experienced teachers. Help is readily available if needed.

    Placements

    Top companies including Tata Consultancy Services, Cognizant, IBS software conducted campus placement drives here. Most of my colleagues who attended the drive got placed and that too for decent salary offers.

    Value for Money

    Like all govt institutes the fee you have to pay is very low. For an affordable price you can avail of the hostel and college bus services in the institute. Canteen offers decent food for an affordable price.

    Campus Life

    The campus is very accessible. Bus service is available at all times. The ground is fairly large with a good gallery. The campus has an indoor auditorium and an open theatre. The maximum capacity of the auditorium is very low though.
