Placements in my college are good. Students are eligible for placements from the end of 6th semester. From 5th semester onwards, companies come for providing internships. Although not many core companies come to hire Civil Engineers, many students from Civil Engineering goes for tech placements after working on their skills. In Civil Engineering, there is 64% placement, which might seem less, but many students opt for Govt Service and higher studies, so they don't go for placements. This college provides M.Tech opportunities which you can directly opt after completing 4 years of Bachelor's and you will get a degree of B.Tech and M.Tech within 5 years. Highest package in Civil Engineering was 13.6LPA last year and median package was 9 LPA. Core companies like Tata Steel, ITD Cementation, and non-core companies like TCS, PWC, ITC, Wipro, ICICI Bank hire Civil Engineers.

In the beginning of 3rd year, companies start hiring interns. The number of students selected is less but still good. Try to Bag one offer and if you perform well during your internship period you will get a pre placement offer and can join the company as full time after your course is over. In my department the placement scenario is pretty pleasant and majority of us got internship opportunities and placements too. The average CTC from my department was 13lpa and I got 19lpa. The highest package was 80lpa offered by Atlassian. And then there was Microsoft offering around 50lpa. But then the majority of companies pay below 10 and you have to give your 200% to grab the offer from companies that give more than 10. And then there is luck.
Considering the placement stats after doing a lot of research, one thing is very clear that IIEST ends up with 100% placements every year among which 2-3 CSE/IT students get placed in top-notch companies like Google, Microsoft at an exorbitant compensation package as compares to average package figure of the institute. However, from an independent perspective, the average salary is still at the bottom-line if you consider other tiers 2 colleges. There are certain reasons for it such as:
Recognition:
This is one of the major reasons for such placement stats. Almost nobody outside West Bengal knows that there is an Engineering college name IIEST Shibpur and the same happens with the recruiters as well. People might ask you such questions like where is your college located. Which is this college? Etc.
Alumni Network:
IIEST Shibpur does not have a very strong alumni base in the companies that can influence the companies to conduct any recruitment drive in the college.
Placement Cell:
Most of the students of IIEST Shibpur will agree to the fact that the institute really needs to work upon its existing placement coordination procedure.
Overall, the institute needs to work hard on their placement cells if they want to improve the placement stats. Then only there will be a scope that students of IIEST Shibpur will get some placements.
Usually, the IT and CS branch students of IIEST Shibpur get the highest salary packages. Many industry giants such as Google, Directi, Amazon, etc. take part in IIEST Shibpur placements. In a recent placement drive, an IT student received a salary package of INR 42 LPA from Microsoft.
Having good programming skills and good knowledge of algorithms, system architecture, etc. can get you these CS jobs. The roles and packages offered vary depending on the skillset and knowledge of the students.
My sister was in the batch of (2014-18) at IIEST Shibpur. There were 84 students in her batch, 19 chose a dual degree, and about 60 students were eligible for placements. The major recruiters were M.N Dastur, ZS Associates, HSBC, CGI information systems and management consultants, etc.

This is the placement scenario of the Civil branch at IIEST Shibpur. The number of students applied for placements also matters. Due to their training for GATE, ESE or CAT, etc, or simply the lack of interest in private work, there are a number of students who don’t appear willingly on-campus placement.
As a B.Tech Mechanical student at IIEST Shibpur, I can tell you about the placements in my branch.
Several companies recruit mechanical students from IIEST. Here is a list of them-
61 out of 75 eligible students from B.Tech ME were placed last year. As an ME student, you can’t expect a 7 figure salary through campus placements. Only a handful of companies offer 8 LPA or above. Mass recruiters offer less than 4 LPA.
The placements are decent for my branch at IIEST Shibpur. You can consult some seniors to know about the placements in other branches.
No, it is more or less the same as a bachelor's. Not just at IIEST Shibpur, the scenario of placements for Masters is more or less the same at every institute in India.
If you pursuing Masters then you should keep your aim straight to get a Company related to your branch or pursuing higher studies (Ph.D.) for the teaching line. B.Tech level hiring is more or less the same in M.Tech at the institute. There are some departments in M.Tech which have a moderate placement. The other departments do not offer good placement opportunities. But at IIEST Shibpur you will get the best learning opportunities.
At last, it is up to you only which field you are choosing. If you want a job then go for it with for B.Tech degree, If you want a purely technical job then go for a master's and if you want an academic line then go for further higher studies i.e. Ph.D. from abroad.
According to the students of IIEST Shibpur, placements at IIEST Shibpur have been very good since the year 2018 and maintaining that till now.

Many major IT companies have been visiting the campus every year for interviews and recruiting many students with decent packages
IIEST Shibpur placement for Electrical Engineering is good. Recruiters offering core job profiles usually offer an average CTC of around INR 5 LPA. Some of the major recruiters from the Electrical Engineering field that visit the campus placement frequently are Larsen and Toubro, CESE, Haldia Petrochemicals, etc.

Good college placements must meet the following requirements-
IIEST Shibpur performs well in all these parameters. It has a placement percentage between 55-60%. It delivers an average package of around 6 LPA, and the highest package close to 45 LPA.
A long list of companies visit the campus for recruitments.

Across all colleges, placements and average packages are shrinking. Even the top colleges witness an average package between 8-11 LPA.
IIEST Shibpur isn’t a top engineering college, it does not receive immense funding, and the student crowd isn’t the best. Keeping all this in mind, its placements are quite good. In fact its placements are growing at a consistent rate.
Here are the 2022 placement details for CST at IIEST Shibpur-
During the 2022 placement season, 68 out of 73 eligible students were placed from B.Tech CST (Computer Science and Technology). 104 offers were made, and 94 selection processes were held in total. In M.Tech CST, 10 out of 12 eligible students were placed. 15 offers were made, and 45 selection processes were held in total.
No data is available for the packages offered branch-wise. However, standard packages were offered to the selected candidates. The list of top recruiters who visited the campus includes- Microsoft IT India, Adobe, Microsoft IDC, Amazon India, Infosys Technologies, Tata Consultancy Services (Digital), and Tata Consultancy Services (Ninja) among others.
Microsoft and Google usually offer profiles like Associate Analyst and Data Analyst, instead of SDE. Many times, Directi and Amazon shortlist students but do not proceed further with the placements. Many times, Adobe is open only to female candidates.
The CST placements are decent, and the best among all departments. If you work hard enough and improve your coding skills, you’ll surely get placed at a decent package in some good brand.
IIEST, Shibpur formerly known as BESU is doing really well in all the departments. Whether it is about faculty or infrastructure it is growing steadily and gradually.
But as one wants to take a deeper look in comparing mechanical engineering, EE and ETC, let’s take a look on it:
