College Infrastructure
Classrooms have ample space with WiFi connectivity all over the campus. All courses and their respective laboratories are fully equipped and functional. The food quality provided in the college canteen is just above average. we have a huge ground for our sports activities. We have designated boys common room for indoor sports.
Academics
the biggest drawback to the college lies here. since our college is affiliated to MAKAUT, the course provided is very backdated and no significant update has been done in this sector. teachers here are highly qualified but there means of teaching in not innovative. they teach like we are like GOD DAMN robots.
Placements
The Placement Scenario gets better and better with each passing out batch. TCS and Cognizant are mass recruiters. one can get placed in companies like Google, Microsoft, D.E. SHAW totally upon their skills and knowledge. about 90% of students get placed in my course. almost 50-60% of students got internships opportunities
Value-for-money
my course fee is 6000/- per semester, which sums up to 48000/- for 4 years. i personally feel that one should join this college only if you have a money constraint in your family. If you are financially stable opt for any top tier colleges in Bangalore, there you will better exposure to the world and will live a life whole lot different.
Campus Life
our college just completed its silver jubilee this year and our college hosts many events and activities. We the students of Kalyani Government Engineering College join hands each year in jubilation to celebrate the biggest-techno management and cultural fest of Kalyani, Espektro.spektro has remained host to the biggest of Bollywood names in the past like Armaan Malik, Nakash Aziz, Sachin-Jigar, Mohammed Irfan and Prakriti Kakkar.

Anurag Khanna 8th Jun, 2020

Hello Aspirant,

West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination Board release the cut-off for WBJEE every year after the declaration of results. It is not easy to predict the cut-off for any exam because cut-off depends upon various factors like

  • Number of candidates appeared in exam.
  • Availability of seats
  • Difficulty level of paper
  • And many more

Hence cut-off are bound to change every year by taking consideration of above factors.

However you can get a rough idea from previous years cut-offs for WBJEE, link for the same is given below -

I hope this information helps you.

Good Luck!!
