About College of Engineering Perumon

The College of Engineering Perumon (CEP) was established in the year 2000 under the auspices of the Co-operative Academy of Professional Education (CAPE), an autonomous society founded by the Government of Kerala. Nestled on the serene banks of the Ashtamudi Lake in Kollam, the college provides a picturesque and tranquil environment conducive to high-level technical education and research. The institution's primary objective is to cultivate a community of engineers who are not only technically proficient but also socially responsible. Spanning a 25-acre campus, the college has quickly risen to become one of the most preferred engineering destinations in Kerala, particularly within the southern region. CEP currently offers undergraduate B.Tech programs in diverse and modern fields, including Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, Electronics and Computer Engineering, and the traditional core branches of Mechanical, Electrical, and Electronics engineering. The academic excellence of the institution is reflected in its consistent performance in university examinations, often ranking among the top colleges in the district. Many of its departments have earned NBA accreditation, a testament to the quality of education and infrastructure maintained on campus. The faculty members are highly qualified, with a significant number holding PhDs and actively participating in national and international research conferences. Beyond academics, the college emphasizes holistic development through its Technology Incubation Cell (TIC) and various student chapters like IEEE, ISTE, and CSI. The campus is equipped with state-of-the-art laboratories, a fully digitalized RFID-enabled library, and smart classrooms. While it serves as a center for technical rigor, the college also fosters creativity through its annual festival, Advyka. With a robust centralized placement cell under CAPE, students from Perumon are consistently recruited by global tech giants, ensuring a bright professional future for its graduates.
