Course Curriculum Overview :

All of us know that Electronics and Communication both are very important field of Research in today's world. Curriculum wise the course is good, it covers basic electronics in start and then Analog ans Digital Electronics. Semiconductor Device Physics is also included in the course. Signal Processing, a important aspect of Communication is also covered in our course curriculum. In curriculum the theoretical aspect is covered rigorously but there is some lack in practical based learning. But overall the course is very good when compared with other colleges in India. In a particular course, we have some quizzes and/or assignments for regular evaluation & we have Mid-Semester and End- Semester Examinations which covers the major part of evaluation.

Class Size : 167Course Fees : INR 240000 per year

Internships Opportunities :

Unlike placements, Less students secure Internship through college. But still internship opportunities are better than other colleges.

Placement Experience :

Placement wise the institute is very good. Mostly students gets placed from the college only. If you are from BTech course, in 7th semester you sit for the placements. Otherwise Dual Degree students (BTech+Mtech), sit for placement in their 9th semester. Total number of offers made during 2023-24 Placements are 1350+ made to 1270+ students. Highest package is always 1 Cr+ in our institute. Average package is around 17 lacs per annum. Not all students sit for placements here. Many choose higher studies, some choose civil services as their goal and many other career paths can be seen here.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

We have 1 lac for tution fee per semester (2 semester in a year). The total fees per semester is around 1.1 lacs (excluding mess and hostel charges). As compared to different IITs the fees is higher in Kharagpur. IIT Kharagpur offers various scholarships to financially weak students. Depending on your parent's income 33% or 66% or 100% tution fees is waived. If your parents income is less than 1lac annually then you can avail 100% waivier in tution fees. The name of scholarship is MCM. Apart from it various other scholarships are also there, you can check that from the IIT Kharagpur's institute website.

Campus Life :

There are majorly 2 fests, Spring fest the cultural fest and Kshitij the technical fest of the institute. Apart from it one sports fest is also organised this year named Shaurya. Library is quite big here, many books are available here. Books needed for professional courses of management and law are also available because our institute also offers LLB and LLM, MBA courses. Technology wise labs are good. There are various research groups also here at KGP namely Aerial Robotics Kharagpur (ARK), Autonomous Ground vehicles (AGV), Team KART etc. Sports and extracurricular activities are also encouraged here in institute. We have competitions between hall of Residences (hostels) named as General Championship to further increase the extracurricular activities in our Institute.

Hostel Facilities :

Hostel are generally called Hall of Residence in our institute. Our institute is fully residential, so rented accommodation outside campus is not allowed here. Halls are mostly quite old here. Electrical Wiring and drainage system are also old. Same like others, Water supply pipelines are also old. The whole structure of the halls are old. And due to increase in admission seats, many are facing accomodation issues here. Mess depends on your hall. As in various hall mess food is not good. But mess food in my hall(Patel Hall of Residence) is good (okayish) Wi-Fi facility is available at the halls.

Hostel Fee : INR 30000 per year

Admission :

Admission process mainly involves two entrance exams, JEE Mains and JEE Advanced. But for admission in IITs, your rank secured in JEE Advanced is considered. After the JEE Advanced Results, JOSAA is responsible for further process required for College Admission process. College selection and Course selection depends on your rank in exam and also Course preference list given by you in JOSAA Portal. Cut-off varies for different courses and different IITs and the information related to cut-off is public and can be seen in JOSAA website.

Review of Maulana Kalam Azad University of Technology, WB written by current students

Placement Experience:

From 3rd year students are eligible for campus placement. Companies including Infosys, TCS, Wipro, etc. have visited here with an average of 6 lakhs per annum offered. The highest package was 31 lakh from Amazon. Almost everyone gets placement here but a very low package. I plan to get an off-campus placement after getting the degree.

Good Placements

Placement Experience:

We become eligible from the later part of the third year to sit for the placements as the companies arrive then. Mainly placements are dependent on service-based companies like TCS, CTS, Wipro e.t.c. who mass recruits a whole lot of students with standard 3.5 to 4 LPA packages. Product-based companies like Oracle, Amazon, and trilogy too visited the campus. Oracle recruited a few of the candidates, Amazon too but nobody could clear the trilogy's OA rounds. Oracle offered a package of 15lpa and Amazon around 22 LPA. But a lot of students applied off campus and the highest placement off campus was 72 LPA in Google. The placement percentage is nearly 100% which is mainly due to the fact of service-based companies. I too am interested in IT jobs so am preparing for the same.

Seeing stcet again through my eyes

Placement Experience:

Students from the 4th-year 7th semester onwards become eligible for all sorts of campus recruitments. Cognizant technology solutions are the principal recruiter. Other companies which used to come during this time include Infosys, Odesha technologies, itc infotech, and others. All these companies generally take many students from our campus. During our time around 88% of students got selected from our batch. Out of which many students got double job offers from cognizant and Infosys. Some got job offers in sonodyne, Vodafone, and other companies. The highest package was offered by cognizant which was about 6 lakhs per annum. An average package of 3.5 lakhs per annum was offered by Infosys followed by itc infotech which offered roughly 4 lakhs per annum. After getting the degree I will pursue Ms maybe or maybe I can opt for MBA too. Also, I can sit for ies exam. Let's see what happens.
