Hi


As per previous year cutoffs at IIEST (under Female Pool and Home State Quota), you have to secure a rank well within 17k to get Computer Science and Engineering at IIEST Shibpur. For other branches like Information Technology and Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, they close by 26k and 19k respectively. 


Electrical Engineering by 25k,

Definitely you should choose IIEST Shibpur CSE over NIT Silchar CSE. Following things to be considered -


1. IIEST Shibpur has been ranked 19th by MHRD. While NIT Silchar has a rank of 65.


2. IIEST Shibpur is in Howrah. It's proximity to the city of Kolkata gives you a lot exposure and tremendous opportunities to flourish.


3. Faculty is good at IIEST Shibpur.


4.At IIEST Shibpur, 

    Highest Package - 39.12 Lakhs

In short, placement wise also IIEST Shibpur stands better than CSE at NIT Silchar.


Best of Luck.

Hope this helps.

Hi


Listing your options cleanly, 


CSE at NIT Durgapur, IIIT Kalyani, IIEST Shibpur.

ECE at NIT Durgapur, IIIT Kalyani, IIEST Shibpur.


Firstly choose CSE, as it has better opportunities and relatively a higher salary package. Now Keep aside IIIT Kalyani and chose between NIT Durgapur and IIEST Shibpur. Also, IIEST Shibpur has low NIRF 2019 Ranking but average package at NIT Durgapur is little high, though the highest package is far higher at IIEST Shibpur this year. 


At IIEST Shibpur, 

Highest Package - 39.12 Lakhs

Average Package - around 6 lakhs


And in NIT Durgapur, 

Highest Package - 29 lakhs

Average Package - 6.5 lakhs.


Best of Luck.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Hello,
Well I am from IT  dept. In IIEST,Shibpur so there would be a tinge of biasness but you won't be directed wrong so don't worry.
I had the same doubt whether I.T will be a good choice? But as time passed,I came to the following conclusion :-

  • Information Technology in IIEST is one of the best department of the institute.
  • Placements:-In IIEST ,I.T has the highest no. Of placements each year.Students get regularly selected intoTech giants likeGoogle,Microsoft,Adobe,Directietc.This year the highest package was  40 Lpa(highest ctc given to indian undergrads.)offered by ADOBE,Microsoft inc.
  • Internship:-Our department is blessed with innumerous internship opportunities.students have been selected in google HQ(mountain view,CA,USA), Microsoft HQ  (redmond,VA,USA),Microsoft (Bangalore,India) and lots of other product based companiesfor internship.Also students get selected in Google summer of code(Gsoc) internship.

Research :the department has ample amount of running research project at any given instance of time. Research topics include :-Computational complexity, digital geometry,bioinformatics,cellular automata etc.

Departmental seniors:I.T department has the best seniors among all the branches.Not only they are helpful but also they act as mentor in shaping your skillset in the digital world.

So IT dept. in IIEST,Shibpur is the best place to enjoy asa well as learn and it offers higher placements and research facilities than IIIT,Gwalior so I would prefer IT in IIEST.

The final choice is yours , choose wisely...


Yeah Soumi Sarkar, with 7378 rank in WBJEE, you had a decent chance to get admission in Jadavpur University. As it also depends on the category to which you belongs. But with 7378 rank, you had a decent chance to get admission in Jadavpur University. Best of luck.

Hello,
With this rank in JEE main you cannot get a seat in any government colleges for engineering like NITs IIITs and GFTIs and IIEST. Your rank is way too high.


So please go for private engineering colleges in India like Sharda Manipal SRM etc.

Hers a list of some of the best

Hope it helps
