Whether you should take admitted to CUSAT or not depends on your personal goals and what you are looking for in a university. CUSAT is highly-regarded in India, known for its strong programs in engineering, technology, and science. Its credibility can further be assessed through the ratio of North and South Indian students on the campus which is almost 50:50. This means CUSAT is well known only among South Indians but also among North Indians.
CUSAT has two campuses, one in Cochin SOE and another in Alleppey - CUCEK. The placement scenario is somewhat similar on both campuses.
Before getting admission here, you need to know that the only key to getting placed is good grades and no backs. You won’t be spoon-fed the professor's notes here and will have to survive on your own. If you are enthusiastic, then only come here.
However, you should research more about its program offerings to determine if they align with your interests and career goals.
CUSAT is better than most of the private colleges that offer admission just for the sake of money. Most of the students join CUSAT for the sake of their affordable tuition fee.
