Course Curriculum Overview

4

I Choose AI&DS just because it is in trending outside. A total of 1000(apprx.) students available and 118 teaching professors is there (all courses combinedly) and some 50-70 TA's is also available. For core subjects , mostly all are PHD graduates from certified NIT,IIIT,IIT and other universities. Semester there for 4 months and in that you'll have 1-2 mid terms.

Internships Opportunities

4

SInce i am in my second year of graduation i didn't know anything about internships.But with the information i get from seniors we will get 3-4 months of holidays just for getting and doing internships.For that teachers will be there through our process so we can do atleast one internship with 10000 of stipend. I dont know any projects and outcomes.

Placement Experience

4.5

As mentioned in the starting college average package is somewhere around 14 LPA. Students are eligible to campus placement from 6th or 7th semester.They will also give 3-4 months holidays for doing internship. Highest package is 58.93 LPA and average package is 14.32 LPA. Internship and recruiters are like- Amazon,Nissan,IBM, Bosch,Infosys, TCS,jio , Wipro , suntech. last year 80% students are placed and this year 100% students are placed. My plans may be getting job of course.

Fees and Financial Aid

For each sem you'll have pay atleast 160000 and it increases semester wise. So, for you'll have atleast 325000-350000 per year for seat. And for accomodation you need pay atleat 100000/year(Both hostel and mess). No on campus and FA.But they'll help you to apply for NSP and state wise scholorships.

Campus Life

5

In college at first you will like it very well as it gods own country.But, once time passes you will get used to it and seems that is also same like other colleges.And it spreads somewhere around 55 Kms but mostly hillish. You will library with required books this year they also added novels and etc. Amenities you'll have seperate cusion chairs and AC is also available. Some fests also conducted but not that much regular like apporv(annual fest). It conatins 4 clubs.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

Hostels are good(3 per room) and you'll get hostel provided by college in 2-3 kms outside the college or within the campus.Each room contains 3 memebers and you will get 3 tables and 3 chairs for studying purpose. meal is not good and isn't that much bad.It is good(Somewhat healthy too). They will provide hostel once verfication is completed directly with free of cost. You will in PG's in pala which is 7-8 Km from here.

Admission

Firstly , We have clear the JEE Mains Exam with atleast 97 percentile for the BC and OC Students. For SC/ST students they need to get minimum of 90 percentile.Then , you can apply for some Course in IIIT Kottayam. After clearing the JEE, Through Josaa we can apply for the college.Josaa contains 6 rounds and for every round cutoff decerases somewhat, if you enough percentile you can get seat. After Josaa, 2 rounds of CSAB is also you can apply through that also.All the information regarding application will be availed from Josaa official website.For college details you can simply check in the official IIIT Kottayam Page. Yeah, you can benefits of reservation as mentioned above.In that ,if you belongs to OC better to apply with EWS.As for admission process is considered since from the application and till getting joined everything is very transperant.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Data Science is a rising field in computer science. It has lots of oppurtunities in todays world and easy compared to other fields, which made me choose data science. The curriculum consist of various computer programming languages including Python, R and so on which are vital in the field of data science. There are also experienced faculties for teaching of the programming languages. I personally felt that lab hours are not adequate and also the available hours are also not properly utitlised by some teachers. At the end of each semester we have exams and results are published soon as the exams are over, no lagging compared to other universitites.

They are good in many things but need to be improved in some areas. They must keep mineral water or drinking water in every block for students that's an essential thing and the notification to students in every area need to be improved.
