CET-A look back to the 4 years

CET was the only college in my state offering a course in Industrial Engineering for my B.Tech degree. Also since the college was nearby my house in the same city, daily commute was not a problem. The college is the most prestigious college in our State claiming the highest pass percentage of students and also have delivered some prominent alumni in the past. Also, being a government college, CET helps students financially as the tuition fees are the minimum amount that is present for an Engineering degree in our country.

The course curriculum is a unique and relevant one which embeds the core subjects from Mechanical Engineering as well as Management studies which can prove to be really helpful for MBA enthusiasts such as myself. The first 2 years of the course focus mainly on Mechanical engineering subjects and gives the student a firm understanding of the theoretical as well as practical sides of machines. Starting from 3rd year, we are offered electives and core subjects in Business studies and Financial Management as well as various Project management subjects. In the final year, there is an embedment of IT subjects and programming languages like R and Python are also offered along with the subject Data Analysis. This was really helpful in my case as I got a job in the IT sector during my final year placements and learning this subject will really help me in my future career.Regarding the Faculties, CET is filled with highly experienced and qualified professors and teachers who are the topmost talents in the State as well as proficient in their field of teaching. The attitude of every professor is very positive and will provide their whole-hearted efforts for any concern faced by the students. Our department in general has some of the most unique and oldest professors in the college since it is the oldest department in the college. Faculties in CET are remarkable in their way of teaching and approach to their subjects. I highly endorse in the skills that can be woven by a student by enrolling in this program.

Life at the campus is the embodiment of excitement and learning at its peak. The students are from various districts across the state and interaction with each and every one of them in unique in its own way. The campus is rich in politics and the students can experience a taste of real world politics and election procedures every year at CET. Annually there is a cultural and technical fest conducted here named DHWANI and DHRISTI. Both of them are the most anticipated events every year by students across all colleges in the state. The hype leading up to them is justified by the fact that it one of the biggest festivals in the whole of Kerala and offers a wide display of cultural and technical events for students to participate in. Classrooms offer all the necessary amenities for students with the inclusion of projectors for embedding presentations and videos into the lectures by professors. There are a multitude of clubs offered in the campus from the moment we join into 1st year. Whatever may be the interest of a student, there is a club present for that. These social and technical clubs help to ignite and boost the underlying skills and talents and passions for every student.
