Before jumping to the conclusion, let us understand all the aspects of the college which can make you feel that it is good for you or not.

• Ragging – There is absolutely no ragging on the campus except for some fun interactions and are actually good ways to build up a rapport with them. Physical or mental assault is absolutely not permitted on campus.
• Education – The college has an adequate number of professors but the problem lies in having “good” professors. No doubt that they are highly qualified and are highly educated but they cannot deliver the same in an interesting way 
• Placement – Hardly one or two companies come for core civil engineering jobs and the rest of others offer IT sector or sales and marketing jobs. There are many students who happily take them but if you are one who wants to do a job in a core civil engineering company then it is really difficult.

Other than that Heritage Institute of Technology is a good college. If you have no problem with the above-mentioned things then it is a very good choice otherwise it may not look so attractive to you.

Yes, they are enough but only if you do not miss a single class, and are very serious about every assignment and internal mark.

Your professors and seniors would definitely suggest you the reference books and you should their advice. Everything is not about marks. You should have surplus knowledge about your subjects which brings completeness into the course. 

Due to time limitations, everything cannot be taught in the class. Also, engineering is beyond your semester syllabus.

I have friends from both Heritage Institute of Technology Kolkata and Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology Delhi and based on the conversations that I had with them, I will say the former is a better choice for a CSE degree. 

According to my friends, you will find that after enrolling in Maharaja Agrasen Institute of Technology, all you'll have to do is show up for sessionals and assignments. You must attend lessons or else the HOD will contact your parents. However, this opinion varies from person to person. 

Here is a brief comparison of the two institutes. 

Overall, Heritage Institute of Technology in Kolkata is definitely a better option as compared to MAIT Delhi for CSE. 

One of my friends graduated from Heritage Institute of Technology and according to him, the placements for Heritage Institute of Technology are not that great.

IT students receive an average CTC of around 3-3.6 LPA. Around 78% of students get placed each year. The highest CTC offered last year was 8 LPA. 

Other than TCS, some of the major recruiters at the institute are Infosys, Wipro, Cred, Mindtree, Vedanta, etc. A few core companies also visit the campus placement to recruit IT students.

Seeing your interest in both branches, IIEST has a wide scope of diverse cultures and you will find many students from all over the nation. 

IIEST Shibpur offers great exposure in terms of academics as well as extra-curricular activities along with the interactive clubs and fun happening fests. It comes under the Government of India and is one of the NIT. 

However, Aerospace Engineering is not a trending branch anymore and it was in the limelight a decade ago. To open up more opportunities, you will be required to pursue a Master’s or prepare for the competitive exams to get a decent job. 

ECE at Heritage Institute is more prominent but being a private college, it is not up to the mark as compared to Aerospace Engineering. The placement opportunities at HIT are not good. Therefore, all you can do is to opt for IIEST, get a decent aggregate, and change the branch from Aerospace to ECE in the second year.

In terms of college, IEM and HIT both provide similar career opportunities in the IT sector. Major recruiters like TCS, Infosys, CTS, Capgemini from the IT sector visit both the institutes. 

If you had to pick between the two engineering fields, you should always go with CS. If you select CS, you will be able to apply for a variety of government/public sector positions (ISRO, BARC, IOCL) after completing your B.tech. Only CS guys are qualified to apply for the majority of these government jobs. 

As you will get similar opportunities you can choose either. Also, outside of WB, no one cares if you're from IEM or HIT. Unless you're from JU, everything is the same.

One of my friends studied at Heritage Institute of Technology. Here are some things I got to know from him, which might help you sort your priorities in the 1st year of your college.

• You should be really good at learning programming languages, C, C++, etc.
• Refresh your +2 physics and chemistry fundamentals and conceptual knowledge.
• Try to develop your communication skills as much as possible.
• Most importantly, pay attention to your seniors, especially during the first month of your college days.
• And for your advantage, you may join different technical or cultural clubs, which will help you to gain credit points and also act as an extracurricular activity.

Therefore, keep these points in mind before delving into different things. Enjoy your college life, but also side by side prepare to improve yourself both academically and personally.

The department of Electronics and Communication Engineering at Heritage Institute of Technology is apparently quite good. Here are some significant pointers to offer insight about the same,

• The faculty members of Heritage Institute of Technology are extremely generous and insightful.
• The senior faculty members are Ph.D holders with experience of 30 years.
• Students, generally after completing their course period, go on to pursue M.S from several foreign universities.
• In addition, HIT Kolkata offers opportunities for summer internships at NJIT, New Jersey.
• Most of the top IT MNCs’ visit the campus for on-campus placements, such as Bosch, Sankalp Electronics, and various others.
• Also, the campus is entirely WiFi enabled as well.

Thus, the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering is one of the best to pursue in the institute.

I have a few friends from the Heritage Institute of Technology and according to them, if you belong to the CSE department, JAVA, C, and C++ are taught. You can opt for additional subjects like AI wherein you will be taught Prolog. JAVA, C, C++ are taught in other branches as well.

Having said that, you can learn any coding language on campus if you are interested. The coding culture at the campus is great. You will find many gifted coders there who can help you learn. You can also learn coding languages from open source platforms like Udamy, Coursera, geeks for geeks, etc.
