M A College, Kothamangalam, is a Kerala government-aided, engineering institution.
It is affiliated to M.G University, and is undoubtedly, the best among all other colleges affiliated to the same. This college offers a wide range of options and is perhaps one among the best.
Popularly known ac MACE, it was the first college in Kerala to start the Mechanical engineering branch and is considered to be the best institution for the same branch in Kerala. The college has been located close to the town of Kothamangalam, and is quite accessible with private buses running through the route.
MACE has a very vast library with over 40000 books. It provides its students with the best facilities with separate lab departments for each branch.
The students always come up with flying colors in the university examinations. The placement record, as well, is above par. The academic record of students are high. Only the toppers in Kerala entrance exam(on the basis of which selection is done) get admitted here. MACE has been a favorite choice among toppers.
Fee structure is as per the government rules. The fee is really reasonable, compared to what it is in private colleges(7 times!). MACE do not have a uniform though!
