Wow.. really I didnt expect to see my colleges name here.. My good old dear GOD I am really impressed... Man really my college has reached such a popularity... Well, in other terms..WHY NOT? AFTER ALL ITS MY COLLEGE...
Ok.. to relax myself and to tell you all about my college... But before that how I got to know about this college....
So five and half years back, when I didnt know which college to join... I was actually studying out of india... in a Indian Community School(ICS) in Tripoli, Libya.. Ya, ya what a place to do ur 12th.. I know but past cant be changed fine... I was eligible as per Indian norms to write my exam only in a place where I was either born or where I did my 10th from...
Taking the above criteria I was eligible to write my Entrance test as its called for Engineering(ya, thats what I wanted) only in Kerala.. I did write IIT, BIT Ranchi and so on.. Ok man, I aint that brilliant so I didnt make it there fine... But to let you all know I got into REC, Calicut, then REC, Trichi(one of the best colleges) then BITS Pilani and few more.. but all of the above were NRI quota.... Now you all know NRI quota is hell expensive... I wanted to get into some college with my own efforts not because of my previous records in school neither because my father had money to spend... So, again the wild search for colleges began as soon as my results for Kerala Entrance exam were out... You know what.. I faired just fine in that... I wanted to get into Electronics Engineering or Computer Science Engineering.. My father didnt want me to go in for the later... So what guess.. As per my ranking in the entrance and my choice I got Electronics in this mentioned college. Before opting for this college my father ran a query on it... and he got results like a good coming up college... The syllabus followed is a tough one as people in Kerala will know, as the above college is affiliated to Cochin University..
So finally I was left with the decision to join which college...Hey, I forgot to mention this college started just 4 years before I joined the college which meant that when I join this college the first batch of the college will be coming out... So Pilani was in one hand, RECs were in the other and finally my good old CEC(College of Eng. Chengannur) on the other.. At then my small head just searched for a place close to home and that turned out to be CEC which was just 3 hours away from home... Other colleges were atleast 12 hours away from home.. So finally I joined the college called CEC..
Now the first day I went to the college I was ragged man.. really ragged.. I still remember those days.. But frankly the ragging done to me and my batch mates can be considered as very minimal to what is done in other colleges... After my batch the next batch which joined faced no ragging as ragging was then on termed to be illegal as per code of conducts of colleges(specially in Kerala).
Now how the 4 years passed... Cool really cool.. I never realized that..
About studies and facilities provided... Lots and lots to say.. This college has only two fields to do your B-Tech in .. Electronics and Computer Science.. As I said I opted for Electronics.. They take in atleast 120 students each year into each branch.. As per the facilities provided as of yet the facilities are the best provided in CEC than in most other colleges in Kerala.. Internet facility is there and all practical labs everything is setup.. As per the faculty is concerned its quite good.. Faculty is better in other colleges than out here.. HEy, that doesnt mean that faculty is bad.. they arent bad they are great but they lack a bit of experience only.. which they have gained as of now.. and I am very sure they can be comparable to any faculty of any other institution...
Lots more to add.. but I am already tired typing... Last thing I would add is the fame of the college and the efficiency of the students as well as the faculty can be very well understood by the popularity the college has gained in the last 8 years.. where in the first 4 years the college was inactive... naturally as the first batch took 4 years to be out.. and all of us out of the college are holding quite respectable posts.. Me as an example am working with Infosys Tech. Ltd.. which I feel is the best S/w firm in India...
Recommend some one .. Yes why not ... Advantage... Lovely atmosphere of college and best suited for studying.. that I feel is common to every college passout.
Cons:- hey, this is my college ok.. No problem with the college... Ya, one is there.. The college building is yet to be completed.. just one block which is on stay since last 3 years... you know Indian politics...thats it...
