    I Love CUSAT

    March 4, 2008 by Kenney Jacob

    Author: Kenney Jacob

    Hi, I am Kenney Jacob, love blogging about Education, Media hypocrisy and Social Issues.

    In some of my posts I have written some things against CUSAT. And with my latest post, some asked me why I hate CUSAT so much. Actually I dont hate CUSAT. I love it very much, after all I hold an engineering degree from CUSAT. How can I hate it.

    Here Ill write some of the things I heard about CUSAT before joining CUSAT.

    • The only Technology University in Kerala (Very True)
    • The only university in Kerala, whose name is known outside Kerala
    • CUSAT degree has got more value than any other university in Kerala
    • Companies give preference to students with a CUSAT degree
    • If you want to study abroad you definitely need a CUSAT degree
    • CUSAT Syllabus is the best in India
    • CUSAT will soon become an IIT

    Now I am not going to comment on any of these, Cos I Love CUSAT.

    1. I graduated with an IT Degree. Here is what I heard in addition:

      1. IT department is a research center for DRDO, later realized that its only a division under SOE not even a department and the DRDO contract ended in early 90′s.

      2. CUSAT has professors of international repute. Needn’t say that we struggled for even visiting faculty who were just plain B.Tech(s), mostly from CUSAT itself.

      Realized many more things yet I do not feel like blaming on to CUSAT but on ourselves. Inspite of thousands of students graduating, we lacked visionaries, lacking Alumni network support and many such things.

      Even though we realized the dark side of CUSAT after graduating, what did we do to make things better? We all have some defensive arguments I know, but the fact is that we failed to uplift CUSAT.

      However, I’m hopeful after a cycle when we have some students getting disproportionate success, we’ll be able to resolve few things to start with.

    2. Internal changes can be made only by people with power. I am in no power to change the syllabus of the administrative environment there. Me and a few friends of mine organised a barcamp in CUSAT. Also helping out some students with their projects also.

      Comment by admin — March 4, 2008 @ 12:07 pm

    3. Very interesting, organizing the Barcamp in itself is a commendable task. Din’t know you were behind the effort.

      IMO we perhaps needn’t try to change the syllabus at all but supplement the campus culture, help students become visionaries and extraordinarily good at some one thing, technology, problem solving, strategizing etc.

      If even half the students can develop constructive thought process and be technically strong, this will automatically bring a positive impact on to the top level.

      Perhaps promoting entrepreneurship can bring some positive difference.

    5. I have never seen more Bullshit. REC-Calicut and CET are the best and prestigious engg colleges in Kerala where hte best and brightest come. CUSAT is 2nd tier Univ.

      Comment by displaced — March 15, 2008 @ 12:32 pm

    6. I agree to displaced’s post above. CUSAT B.tech is 2nd Tier. Only those who do not qualify for Kerala entrance get in CUSAT.

      My Kerala engineering entrance rank was 327, and CUSAT rank was ~21 (for ECE).

      Comment by Appachen — March 26, 2008 @ 9:18 pm

    14. It is really happy news to both parents, students , teachers and public that name IIT (Kochi) is conferred on CUSAT out of 200 odd colleges selected in the first place !Its very ideally located to benefit students from Kerala and all the southern most parts of the neighbouring state.All the efforts of CUSAT to achieve academic excellence has yielded the results! Best wishes IIT(Kochi).The Kerala Govt ,CM Oomen Chandy,Ministers MP s,VC cusat,teachers and CUSAT students need to be congratulated!!!The right decision of UPA Govt at the right time is to be welcomed.may the Almighty Bless the new IIT and its students!!

    16. no body spoke about the school of legal studies and its LLB and LLM courses. why? is this course insignificantly placed as compared to the tech courses. in addition there is this private college called NUALS that has sprung up though with the recognition granted by CUSAT

      somebody give me your opinion

      Comment by mcnemara — July 29, 2008 @ 3:27 pm

    17. I am a CUSAT faculty member (Dept of Maths). I found the posts quite interesting although most assume that CUSAT is an engg college. Now the IIEST dream is dead and an IIT looks very unlikely.
      In my opinion CUSAT needs a lot of restructuring if it is to improve.
      But I think it is not worse than some engg colleges in Kerala which have a better reputation! (I’m talking only about teaching, not placement.)

    35. ethu poorimon annu paranjath cusat is good
      its complete shit hole
      all those who want to join this college, first imagine your head stuck inside a toilet pot with shit still floating in it. if you love the experience, come join here.
      ever since i joined this shit university, my life has been a livving hell.

      no matter how hard you study ,they dont pass you.

      people who study much less than you get much more marks in other universities. they have better percentages.

      when the companies come, they just look for the percentages. thats it. they dont care about whose mother’s university u passed from.

      i have supplies, no job. nothing.

      why dont all of you dirty little shitheads who love cusat get me a job between your mothers or your sisters legs…

      then i’ll also love cusat. ok?

    41. hummmmm…………whatever responses have been dispatched so far….i claim for their originality……the thing is that when you are lying inside a sea it does not matter whether the wave comes or whether the tides….the things go on unchangebly…cusat is imposing merely a shit …it’s nothing in itself….yup…it’s a fact that it has rejected the offers of iit and iiest but the thing is that it’s if furious to show it to u all………the resignation of last vice chancellor is a clear indication of the shit politics going on here…..the six senate members forcibly made him to resign just as to safeguard the regional reservation for some people those deserve nothing…..education for them is nothing except a bunch of supples which helps them ride a pool in ocean………it has no infra….11 huts yup,,u cant even imagine but its true………….no labs……no library……..no teachers………and no discipline…….they do things they want to do..
      student unions
      arrange for strikes specially on fridays….since malyaless are in an urgent need of going home…the tore out the vivekanand posters …..so as to search for an exuse,…..bloddy motherfuckers……dey dont have even a right to do so…………….mr joseph kutty the principal now is a great person…..do u know whats his greatness he does not even take a breathe while engulfing all the funds of college…..he is an asshole………

      n u will get ragging (am not talking about good dept.s like maths.) even from pure science dept.s from ur own seniors (who r just 1 yr elder than you…)…

      Its true… it happens even now….

    46. Hiii, friends. don’t take admn in CUSAT. It is filled with fatal problems. I got through CAT2010 with 525 rank. I remain always frustated owing to dictatorship of college.

    47. Hiiii,friends.I am going to tell about the big reality of CUSAT.I had got through CAT2010 with rank 502.I took C.S.E. in SOE(maincampus). After taking admn,I reached college on 18july 2010. I was shocked after knowing the reality of CUSAT. CUSAT IS FILLED WITH LOTS OF FATAL PROBLEMS.e.g. cusat hasn’t sufficiet money for its infrastructure.There is partiality btwn northy & southy.Lack of well educated lecturers.they are just btech holder most of them from cusat.They look like HITLER in classes.They often cut attendence if u ask conceptual questns. Becoz, they don’t have deep knowledge about their own single subject. They give only lots of assignments who make students typewriters not scholars.1st year is year wise not semesterwise which is not so in IITs,NITs,EVEN not in OTHER SMALL INSTITUTIONS. Is it a sign of a modern institution?Not at all.Due to this, u have to study 11 subjects during 10 months which becomes difficult in externls exams.In addtion to it,there are Very low marking-scemes in external exams.U will have to spend money on scrutiny. More than 90% stdnts get Suple. Specially the faculty of EC & CS is motherf*cker from 2nd yr. Their syllabii always remain incomplete. They always threaten students (specially northy).These problems are seen & felt often by me.’IT’ branch is supposed to be easiest branch in cusat. However a 3rd yr senior of IT told me the black reality of cusat. Most of students of IT also get suply easily like other branches.Becoz CUSAT earns 2 to 3 crores per annum from supplementry exams as 25 colleges are affliated to it & it earns 250 Rs. from one paper. Cusat gives only 30-39% results per annum.So only few students get placement & cusat says that placement cell has good percentage record.”are madarch*d cusat, jab kam stnds pass karega to plcmnt bhi to kam stdnt lega jisse % record high hoga hi’.Thus cusat hides its reality. There4 each student remains frustrated always. Students show fake to be happy. So stay away from CUSAT (Chutia Uni. Sci. And Tech.). IRAA UNIT & CUSAT play very dirty politics here. Don’t take admn here.

    49. I am an alumni of cusat

      Comment by aditya22 — December 5, 2010 @ 11:53 am

    50. I graduated from one of the affiliated colleges in ece.I read all the interesting posts above,let me give my opinion which will help all CUSAT B TECH ASPIRANTS.basically many say that it is difficult to pass in exams ,the thing I under stood is i t is not that much difficult to pass,but VERY DIFFICULT FOR AN AVERAGE STUDENT TO SCORE GOOD MARKS,as a result it is very difficult to score a 75+ perc espicially for ece,THE COMMON MISCONception is that cust students get good percentage value then other students ,for eg for ISRO tests the cut off will be 70+ FOR SHORTLISTING,ALTHOUTH 65 THEY SAY,DURING SHORTLISTING ONLY 1 OR 2 STUDENTS OF OUR CLASS WENT IN TO WRITE EXAMS .THEY HAD ACTUALLY 75 %.the main probleM OF cusat IS THE RESULTS COME TOO SLOW AND THE EXAMS ARE FASTER THAN ANY OTHER UNIVERSITIES GIVING LITTLE TIME TO PREPARE,the main thing is that for keralites i think only students with bad ranks in kerala entrance comes to cusat.

      SO MY OPINION IS IF U CHOOSE CUSAT U HAVE TO BE TEDIOUS AND CAREFUL DURING THE 4 YEARS TO GET THE DEGREE IN A FAIRLY GOOD MANNER.(ALSO IF ONCE LOOSE THE GRIP U WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PASS IN 1 CLASS)

    52. Hiiii, to all my upcoming juniors. I’ve got rank 503 in cat-2010. I’m 1st yr student. I would suggest to not to fill d forum of cusat…
      It’s really hell. I’m very regretting that Why I didnt take admn in HBIT (KANPUR). In CUSAT, U will only know how to minimise ur supply not abt knowledge n latest technology. I n my lots of frnds always remain frustrated due to dictatorship of faculty n bloody politics of IRAA unit…
      I n my lots of frnd will again give AIEEE. Some frnds have already left SOE,Cusat who were intelligent n came here after leaving NIT.
      Who told u dat it’s mecca of placements. It’s wrong. My cousin is going to complete 4th yr n he’s 1st topper n have no supply. But still craving 4 placement. Becoz here placement cell is hell… Nobody is happy in cusat, all show that they r happy, but it’s drama.
      In northy students..75 to 85% come here by settingggggg… U can know how is cusat so corrupt ?? while in southy, all r booby n lower rankers n baklol(silly). thus maxm boyz have low mentality…… so dont fuck ur bright carrier… I’ll leave cusat in this month like my friends….

    53. usat is a f**king university in all means and most of colleges under cusat is crap, and in my experience TKMIT is the worst.

      as the page says, it is true with exams. u write for 90, if u have luck, u ll get 45. and it takes almost 1 year for them to publish result and revaluation of this result takes another 9 months and u get only 1 supply chance in a year. that means, irrespective u pass in revaluation, u already have to write the exam in between of the same paper in advance.

      and the worst part is, one will die paying exam fees. they are cheaters and money looters. the exam results of a semester will come only after the last day of same semester’s exam fee last date with superfine, so they will get all the exam fees from those who has slightest of doubt they ll pass or not. in cusat case, if a doubt is there, u can make sure, u wont pass. if u write well also, wont pass, then what to tel about the other situation.

      and i have completed course in TKMIT, i go there to apply exam. its a pain-taking process. after all saga, at last you reach office to pay fees, those morons at office keep panchara-adikals and olipikals to female students, like they have not seen females, and we ve to wait for their extracurricular activities to end up and get back after wasting a full day after going to that forbidden hill on the verge of amazon.

      Comment by cusat student — March 13, 2011 @ 8:56 pm

    54. and just one more thing to add up, waiting for VI’th semester supply results, exam starts on apr 3, and last year result came on apr 13th, a miracle ll make result come b4 dat dis yr. so you have to study whether u pass or not. what a mothafu*kin uni.

      Comment by cusat student — March 13, 2011 @ 9:02 pm

    55. and if anyone thinks cusat will become better someday, it is as simple as making the male VC start his menarache and have menses.

      i have lost all good values as a student after studying in this uni called cusat.

      i will never ever recommend this shit to anyone, even my enemies. think 100 times before u join this shit.

      Comment by cusat student — March 13, 2011 @ 9:06 pm

    56. Who told u that cusat is mecca of placements? it is too false… please go to take admission in north india. Cusat is hell…..
      my brother is topper in eee (4th yr) but yet he is jobless. becoz of weak placement cell.
      Cusat has no tie-up with any company. Just go n ask to any senior in cusat. If u want to ruin ur life, plz welcome in hell world of cusat….
      Actually my rank was 501 in cat-2010. But I discontinued my course, now I’m preparing for Aieee n left cusat. My 5 frnds has also left college this yr whose ranks were within 600……..
      In short, cusat sirf naam pe chal raha hai. Iska naam bihar n u.p. me bahut famous
      hai. But reality is not so….
      one thing more, more than 80% students are admitted through SETTING process…
      North Indian can understand wat is setting…

    64. Usually,a University is evaluated in the number of research publications & number of Ph.Ds produced.In this point of view,CUSAT is first in Kerala and among first 15 in India.Also, 70% of CUSAT faculties are Ph.D holders while there are many Engineering Colleges functioning without a single Ph.D holder.

      We are going through commercialization of education and the students & parents expect return(including liberal marks) for the money spent.If you compare CUSAT with new generation Universities and Colleges, you will get disappointed.

      Comment by Faizal — June 22, 2011 @ 11:39 am

    65. A University is rated by the number of reserch publications and number of Ph.Ds produced.No doubt,CUSAT is number 1 in Kerala and within first 15 in India.80% of faculties of CUSAT have Ph.D degrees while many five star Self Financing Engineering Colleges function without even a single Ph.D faculty.

      CUSAT is state owned University.It is not comparable with Private Universities or Five Star Private Self Financing colleges where the management and faculties stand to please their customers(students & parents) with free marks,liberal exams(open book!) etc because they want to make profit from the educational business.

      The Kerala Government /Government of India should provide sufficient fund to provide world class infrastructure to CUSAT.

    66. Haii guyss,
      I am a Third year CIvil Engineering student of SOE CUSAT…. i guess the above “harsh” commentors should have about some “etiquette” before they do comment on a Respectful blog like kenny jacob’s … move on guyss….

      I am pretty much sad to see these all bad words about CUSAT. I do strongly agree with Kenny Jacob I LOVE CUSAT… i just want to say that if you study well in the cllege you will get marks else you are going too far my friends…. i dont believe the above commentors who told that CUSAT is blah.. CUSAT is blah blah bad….i really do wanna support Shubham They r just trying 2 defame 1 of the best indian universities….
      Almost all the leading faculties are Phd. Holders and they are the best ones available for the teaching… believe me… as faizal said is very much true tht 70% of CUSAT faculties are Ph.D holders while there are many Engineering Colleges functioning without a single Ph.D holder…. the Heads of the divisions are carrying multiple degrees and the knw WTH they are supposed to..

      Only problem in the CUSAT is the bad politics only….politics is getting so much dirty here….anyways we can hope for good in future…
      Believe me… You are going to get lots of exposure in this College… just the best experience and exposure none of the colleges in the state cant provide with…
