Thiruvananthapuram has multiple optionswhich college is recognized as the best engineering college by alumni?
As an alumnus, I can confidently say College of Engineering, Trivandrum (CET) is consistently held in the highest regard. The network of CET alumni is incredibly strong and spread across top global companies. The rigorous academic curriculum and focus on fundamental engineering principles prepare you for any challenge. The brand value of a CET degree opens doors during placements and higher studies. It's not just a college; it's an institution that shapes your entire professional identity.
It depends on the branch. For Computer Science, Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) is unparalleled and its alumni are placed in ISRO and space research organizations worldwide. For a more holistic, campus-life oriented engineering education, University College of Engineering, Trivandrum also has a proud and vast alumni network. You should choose based on your career goals, but CET often has the widest recognition across all disciplines.
While CET is the top government choice, many alumni from Model Engineering College (MEC) Thrikkakara also speak very highly of their experience. MEC is known for its strong industry connect and exceptional placement records in the IT and core sectors. The campus culture encourages innovation and entrepreneurship. From my batch, a significant number are now in leadership positions in product-based companies. The alumni network is very active and supportive.
