Course Curriculum Overview :

The curriculum is a mixed bag. For some courses it is up to date encompassing latest developments in the area while for others it lacks current needs. The syllabus focuses mainly on core engineering aspects and unlike most private colleges IIEST doesn't teach coding unnecessarily to every branch to place them in IT.

Students in 5-6th semester are offered internship through on camous drive and final placements begin in 7th Semester. Almost 100-120 companies visit every year across domains, IT, Consulting, FMCG, Finance, core engineering etc. The average package is around 9-11 LPA with the highest package easily touching 40-50 LPA Almost the entire batch gets placed.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

There are multiple financial aids available through tge institute and the Alumni association, GAABESU. Notice and information regarding same are regularly circulated. These are based on academics, need, sports etc.

Review on Guru Nanak Institute of Technology from one year of college experience

Placement Experience:

Recession is going on since last few years and being a private college obviously that has affected placements in our college also. The current situation of placement is not really good. Among students from all branches which each may have like 150 students, only 20 something got placed on campus. It is said that companies like TCS, Capegemini, Wipro, Amazon, Zscaler etc comes to campus for hiring but most just come and don't hire. This year highest package was 26.5 lakhs by only 2 students from our department, CSE.

It is a college in a village with the rate of a city.

Placement Experience:

The placement data of this college can be found on its site and if you work hard from your side the college will definitely bring in the companies and you will be placed depending on your skills. According to my knowledge the students becomes eligible for placement from 6 th semester this information may as be wrong so please refer to college once . College tries for almost 100 percent placements but with no skill even god can't help you so it comes to you individually how much have you grown. My plans after the degree is to get a job .

Narula institute of technology- good choice for engineering?

Course Curriculum Overview:

In today's world artificial intelligence and machine learning are like one of the most important things which can make you ready for a good job. So remembering that, I opted for my course.there are 2 main exam in 1 year , 1 per sem but there are 1-2 slot exams beforehand.
