This review is quite an Achilles Heel for me.I am writing for my college KCT after giving a poor recommendation to its archrival Amrita.I thought of never writing a review which would picturise myself as a biased reviewer.But I mustered all my strength and courage, and I write this review with the ray of hope that my friends know me better than anyone. Kumaraguru College of Technology(KCT) alongwith Amrita Institute of Science and Technology(Amrita Deemed University of TOday) was one of the earliest established self financing educational institutions in Coimbatore, run by the mangement that comprises of Arutchelvar Dr.N.Mahalingam, one of Tamil Nadu’s leading industrialist. After establishing themselves as a premier engineering college, KCT went into hibernation, and it woke up only when it didnt get a laudable accreditation from NBA in 2000.From then onwards KCT had started to come up with a lot of activities, and decided to go the right way, after learning the lessons the hard way. Results were not a problem of the management, as they were blessed with a great team of students and staff.They would take a fair number of University ranks for granted, garner whole Coimbatore’s attention with the inter collegiate FESTIVITA, and the industrial record of the students were also pleasing.The college got complacent and after some misinvestments and miscalculations sent the right persons out It was here when the poor accreditation from NBA came as a blessing in disguise.


The management got into the act, and alarmed started in the progressive lines.They college started to get into the proffesional mould.They took up R&D activities, enhanced their placement Cell, encouraged the extra curricular activities and started collabrating with the foreign institutuions, organise frequent seminars and conventions, got ISO certification, revived their inter collegiates, developed industry interactions and set their own VSat Centre.The students and staff also rose to the occasion, but yet Kumaraguru College of Technology stays onbly next to Sri Krishna College of Engineering and Technology.The irony is that the SKCET is formed by most of ex KCTians. KCT is all set to blaze the Textile City with its massive Administrative and Management block that is a high magnitude building, of a high grade. KCT is on the up, with a lot of activity but it should take care it dosent go complacent again.
