Remarks :

Overall my college and department is quite nice.It still needs many improvements.There are no hostel facilities,no social life.Teaching and Educational parts are good but not well maintained.The college playground is way too small.The college need a few improvements.

Course Curriculum Overview :

The Course Curriculum is a bit hard as compared to the other engineering boards like MAKAUT and JU.Marks obtained are also less.Obtaining a GPA around 8-8.5 is considered way above average. Exam structure is also very different from others and very scientific.Questions asked in semester exams require in depth knowledge and logical thinking capability.Overall the exam structure is quite advanced and designed in a scientific manner.

Placement Experience :

The truth of my department Optics and Optoelectronics is that its a research oriented department,thereby mainly focusing on making students develop a mindset of scientific thinking and logical reasoning.Placements are less compared to other colleges but still students do get placed with a job package of around 4-6 lpa. My college provides internship.My overall experience was a very learning one as I had worked on the Lighting part and learned fairly.There was no stipend for my internship,but students do get stipend in different projects around 5000 rupees.per month

College Events :

Our college has a number of events to start with.We celebrate Saraswati Puja in college every year which is celebrated in quite a grand way. Then comes the International Day of Light celebration where we arrange various seminars and night sky watching events.Then the annual fest of our college "ALL-GO-RYTHM".It includes a cultural night and various competitions like coding,robo wars,and various sports events like chess, badminton,cricket etc.

Fee Structure And Facilities :

Fee Structure is very feasible.In this current financial year we have to pay six thousand rupees as semester fee and five hundred rupees as examination fee.This subsidised fee is very well justified because it is a government college.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

University of Calcutta offers many scholarships.Loan facility is not offered by our university because the ammount of fee is very minimalistic. Scholarships are also given to the needy students. The University also provides scholarships to rank holders of every department.

Campus Life :

Sports event happens every year.And the most interesting part is every year all the faculty members and the students play cricket together to create a strong bonding.There is physics,chemistry, electronics and humanities lab.Our department includes optics lab with various apparatus that are only found here.We also have an illumination lab and computer lab facilities.

Hostel Facilities :

No hostel facility is available for students admitted in Technology Campus of University of Calcutta. Students either opt for a P.G or rent a flat in Sukantanagar Sector 4 ,Salt Lake City.I myself live in outskirts of Kolkata and thereby live in a rented flat.

External Expense : Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna :

Alumni network is very strong in our department and our college. Every department has their own alumni association. They arrange a annual reunion party every year. Senior students are very helpful. Even some of them are doing research work here.

Admission :

Admission in the B.Tech couse is possible only through WBJEE Ranking.Students need to give the WBJEE engineering entrance exam and secure a decent rank to get admission here.After the WBJEE results are out, councelling takes place and in the councelling panel we have to add University of Calcutta, Technology Campus to get admission in this College.

Faculty :

The faculty of our department consists of a dedicated team.They have a PhD in the field of Applied Optics.The main problem in our department is the presence of very less number of faculties thereby relying heavily on external professors and guest lecturers.

The most honest and unbiased review of IIEST Shibpur

Placement Experience:

Students from 7th semester onwards are elegible for campus placements. Some of the companies that visits for placements are Google, microsoft, amazon, pwc, TI, accenture, PPEL, etc. A total of 920 recruiters were there which offered 753 offers to the students and out of them around 75-78% were placed. The highest placement package was offered by microsoft for 51 lpa as PPO to 14 students and the role was IDC. The average package is around 7.5 lpa. I am planning to appear in GATE exam and go for masters in IITs after completion of my degree where i will be persuing my further studies in transportation engineering.

Overall only one thing is important is about hardwork with smart work . You have to work on your skills rest college is there to help you to show the path from your college to carrier .

Placement Experience:

From seventh semester onwards companies are coming to visit in our colleges . You will give exams in four phases that are coding , technical, aptitude and after qualifying all simple interview would be taken . Just develop your skills then surely you will get job . Highest package is about 10 lakh per annum and average is about 5 to 6 lakh per annum. The percentages of getting placed are about 60 to 70 percent . Just keep in mind that choose any language like c ++ , java , python and become pro into it . You will definitely get job .

4.1 /5

Very appropriate college for all kind of students !! I recommend it.

Course Curriculum Overview:

B.Tech in CSE is future proof and a very good course for IT sector jobs and I was always excited working in these companies, that's why I choose the course. There are 10-12 faculties present in every department. Each faculty is M.Tech qualified and Drs. Their teaching quality is very good. 4 internal theory and 2 Lab exams happen each semester. The questions are standard, regular, and sincere students can easily pass.

Remarks:

College was good in terms of studies and many more. But now it fails in giving placement. Most of the students are still unemployed. Only 30% of the students are placed from college. Others have to find there own jobs.
