      Academics

      I studied Information Technology because it's one of the booming industries in India. The program has great teachers like Debayan Sir from the Computer Science Engineering & IT department, who's a hidden gem! The teaching is really good, and there are other excellent professors like Surja Sir. In our cool classrooms and labs, we get hands-on experience and learn things that will help us get good jobs in the future.GCELT follow a curriculum set by Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology (MAKAUT). This curriculum is regularly updated to include the newest things happening in the field. It helps us learn all the important stuff we need to know for jobs in Information Technology. So when we finish studying, we're ready for jobs.

      College Infra

      Government College of Engineering and Leather Technology (GCELT) has everything basic infrastructure for the Information Technology and computer science students . But I think the computer labs need better upgrades to help students learn and practice more easily.But didn't have any smart boards, but I must say the library was really good, peaceful and well-maintained. I didn't live in hostel so I don't have any idea about that.

      Campus Life

      The offer little bit green campus which is pretty good in place like Kolkata. You can play cricket and football match in the campus ground which is really good. Support is best from both of side. The college located in one of safest city of India any kind of emergency can be handled here because every was connected

      Placements

      The placement scenario at GCELT is not good at all. In 2020 there was no placement opportunity from the college. And that year only 3-5 guys got a placement from college. The Average salary is around 20k, and the placement scenario was easy. And the teacher are really very supportive.

      Value For Money

      For B.Tech in IT department you need to pay 24k per year which is 12k per ssemester. Getting my is worth because at this fees getting a b.tech degree from a decent college every penny is worth.

      Currently, I am in 2nd year pursuing b.tech in CSE. Faculties are worst leaving some of them. Curriculum is strictly followed and updated according to MAKAUT and includes all the recent developments in the field of education.

      College Infra

      Our college have poor infrastructure and with good facilities. Whole campus has CCTV but does not works. Classrooms are not well maintained. Ragging also happens here. Living spaces are not so clean and hygenic.

      Placements

      Very poor placement as it's a government college. Nearly 50%-60% gets placed in a year. Highest package offered was 28 lpa and average salary is nearly 8 lpa. To be honest, college is very supportive towards their students.

      I am in 2nd year studying B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering. The quality of teaching is worst. Faculties are also not so good leaving some of them. Curriculum remains updated and gets completed in time according to MAKAUT.

      College Infra

      No our college does not have all the necessary facilities and equipments. Infrastructure is poor. Full campus has CCTV but does not works. Classrooms have smart boards but except this nothing is well maintained, if anything is broken it will remain broken. No canteen and environment is not so clean.

      Placements

      Let's don't talk about placements here. Previous year 30% of the students were placed. Highest salary offered was 24 lpa and average salary is 8 lpa. The placement process is easy and pleasant. Yes, to be very honest college is very supportive.
