Amity University Kolkata is a private institution situated in Kodampukur and was established in 2015. The university provides a wide variety of courses in different streams such as Science, Business and Management Studies, Engineering, Law, IT and Software, Arts, etc. BTech in CSE is one of the courses provided by the institute. The following are the factors that one should consider before joining CSE in Amity University Kolkata:
Since the institute is private the fee structure is not quite affordable for the middle class family. The institute comprises students from the upper-middle class and high-class families. The course fee for BTech CSE is Rs 1, 05, 500 per annum.
The students are supposed to attend Amity Joint Entrance Examination and their scores in the 12th standard are also a deciding factor to grab the seats in CSE or in any branch the students are interested in. The scholarship facilities are offered to the students on the Merit list. Those students who scored above 90 percent in the 12th board examination could avail a 50 percent reduction from total fees and those students score 80 percent could avail a 25 percent reduction from total fees. This is available only in the first year. The students should maintain good CGPA to get the fee reduction throughout the course period.
Faculties are quite well experienced and supportive. Most of them either hold a Ph.D. or pursuing it presently. The faculties create an interactive atmosphere and employ different teaching methods which enhances the clarity of concepts taught.
The institute was established in 2015. So, the infrastructure has a freshly built exterior. The CSE laboratories are fully furnished with brand new computers. But the labs are small.
All the placement activities are channeled from Amity University’s Noida campus. The highest salary package offered was Rs 28 lakhs and the average salary package was Rs 4 lakhs. Major companies in which the students placed were Amazon, Byju’s, L & T Infotech, ITC, Wipro, TCS, Infosys, etc.

Let me clarify the fact that NIT Kurukshetra has the CE or Computer Engineering branch and not CSE. While the former deals with hardware concepts the latter is all about software. The overall branch is decent but not at par with the IT or CSE branches of other institutes. The syllabus is somewhat outdated and so are the labs.
As far as the placements are concerned, the campus is visited by several IT companies like Directi, Amazon, Adobe, CDOT, etc Students often receive PPO and PPI from companies like Flookatt and Microsoft. The placement scenario is similar for IT as well.

The number of recruiters varies every year and affects the placement percentage of all the branches of DTU. Approximately the placement percentage of DTU CSE varies from 88 % - 93%. Even colleges better than DTU find it difficult to maintain a 100% record. Students who have poor grades or backlogs usually get rejected while many top graders opt for higher studies generally in foreign universities.
