The verdict

Good fit

If you want an affordable, research-heavy M.Tech from a reputed Kerala state university, CUSAT delivers. A ₹1.3L total fee and 70% placement rate are genuine wins. Just be ready to crack GATE or CUSAT_CAT for only 18 seats. Skip if you’re chasing published median salaries or a massive alumni network.
