    Academics

    It focuses on not only the engineering aspects bit makes you ready for every other challenge as well. The mentors are equally supportive and in times of any help reaching them out without any hesitation is what is the most impressive thing.

    Placements

    Placements have always been good. Almost 85 percent students get placed every year and the highest package being 40lpa(computer science and technology) and average being 7-8 lpa(all departments) and the companies reaching out are prestigious.

    Value for Money

    For a general student this might turn out to be a bit expensive ( 71000 per sem)but is theamount every college takes and for students with categories it is the best. But there will be no extra charges as in donations for the general ones.

    Campus Life

    Since it is the second most oldest college in india it is is all about greenery and space. The only institute to have lakes within the campus a graveyard and Ganges . It is close to every possible locations in kolkata

    Great Learning at the 2nd oldest engineering college

    College Infrastructure

    The college has all necessary infrastructure and the rest are under construction or maintenance or upgradation and will be effective very soon. It has one of the biggest Library comprising of around 1.5 lakh books, journals, magazines and research papers in hardcopy and soft copy as well. All the sport and gymnasium is well maintained and the girls hostel constructed recently are great but the boys one need some renovations even a 10 storey boys hostel is under construction as well.

    Academics

    Ok with this topic but the fields for work and delve deep is vast and have specialised experts to guide as well.Teaching varies from professors to professors hence ranges from very poor to excellent ones, the best in the industry and hence overall average rating.

    Placements

    Decent placement but then also not upto the marks since the average package is much below many colleges of same standard and the percentage is low as students go for higher studies may be due to low packages or even not placed or have some keen interest in any topic to have future prospects.

    Value for Money

    Prices too high not at all budget friendly for the general middle class , it seems as if we are running the others and bearing their loads in addition to ours financially.

    Campus Life

    Great campus life in the bank of river ganges and connected to Calcutta, the City of Joy. Greenery all round with heritage buildings and rich bengali culture squares up the vintage feel for a bengali.

    Others

    Just don't go after NIRF ranking it is a total scam, evaluate it personally on all the details provided in the NIRF pdf to have a good idea of the real scenario.

    College Infrastructure

    The college is old, so the hostels and classroom is not in its best shape and not very well maintained too. The lab machinery is old but atleast the lab is well maintained. The campus is well maintained and has a lot of greenery which promote good environment for education.

    Academics

    I study Metallurgy and Materials Engineering. The curriculum is outdated but the professors are good teachers. They help us grasp the basics and if we are serious with academics, it is more than sufficient to be job ready in our department.

    Placements

    The placements can be better if we see numbers but there is a high influx of core companies here and you true worth as an engineer in a core department can be tested with experience in this core companies CS placements are also amazing with high packages

    Academics

    Our college is the second most old college in India and has a rich heritage in terms of academics. But some times some teachers get hasty in finishing the syllabus rater "teaching" us. But I think that happens in every college I assume. Very few subjects follow stone age syllabus. All the departments are up to dated.

    Placements

    Being an NIT and a institute of National Importance various famous companies visits our campus for placement. We have good record of on campus/off campus placement record. The students get placed in Google/Microsoft like places. So overall placement is good.

    Placement in my college is improving. putting that aside it is better than various colleges of India. The main companies are google, microsoft, tcs etc. And as for a government college it has a moderate placement record.

    College Infrastructure

    The college has well built infrastructure, beautiful area visuals and necessary facilities. The classroom usually has normal blackboards, white boards with projector screen facilities. All are well maintained and regularly checked. It has awesome laboratory facilities with world class equipment; some extraordinary machines, The library has lots of books with digital library support. Sports centers. Hostel has facility like wifi, canteen, but all of them are not well maintained.

    Academics

    I'm a studying metallurgy and materials engineering . The quality of teaching is good as we have some world renowned professors. Yes, curriculum is regularly updated and it includes all recent research topics. Yes it can be said that it makes us job-ready but we definitely have to work ourselves.

    Placements

    The placements are quite good here. Many major companies like, Microsoft, Goldman Sachs, Cisco, ZS etc., comes here. Almost 70-80% of all students on an average was placed. The highest salary i think is 50 lakhs for a CSE student but I'm not confirmed it can be further higher The average salary offered is 6-7lpa. The placement process is through superset platform. Its average and we need to be alert anyways for the offers. yes, to an extent college was supportive.

    Value for Money

    The actual course fees is about 63000/sem. But there are several criteria to this and many fee wavers schemes are there which can give full or partial waiver. yes the college is worth of the money paid as you get good infrastructure, professor support and placement opportunity.

    Campus Life

    The college campus is very beautiful. It has several lakes, full of greenery, sitting areas, parks, swimming pools. The worst thing is after 7pm no food shop was opened but since a year there are shops which opens till midnight inside the Campus. The students can engage in drama, dance, singing, and many more club activities.

    College Infrastructure is good. Whole campus is WiFi enabled. Good roads connecting every building. There are buildings from pre-independence period which looks great. The laboratories are well maintained, you'll get site visita under the guidance of best professors. Hostel food is good, not like other colleges. You'll get to try different types of food from West Bengal and also from pan India. Cleanliness is well maintained in the whole campus.

    Academics

    The college has ranked 21 in NIRF 2020. And particularly in Architecture the college ranks 6th in the NIRF Architecture College ranking. Its one of the oldest colleges in India and is still at top most position in academics.

    Placements

    Placements are decent. With CST and IT students getting the highest number of placements with good packages. Number pf multinational companies come for placement to this college. Overall placement is decent. Average salary offered is around 4-5 LPA.

    Value for Money

    Its quite expensive to study in a College of National Importance, because of the Tuition fee. Students have to pay around 64,000 per semester as the tuition fee. Hostel, mess charges are not included in this. But of you have less family income or belong to reserved categories then there is some relaxation.

    Campus Life

    Campus life in this college is awesome. You will love it. The lakes in campus, the iconic clocktower inside the campus, the trees and the historic buildings helps in building great memories for the students.The view of iconic Howrah Bridge looks great.Ganga river ghats near the college is a great place to chill and spend time with friends. The Botanical Garden next to the campus provides fresh air to the surroundings also keeps the environment cool helping in tackling the heat of Kolkata.

    Others

    It does not depend on where, which college you join. Just live those moment completely, enjoy your college life along with studies. You'll get to know several new things. Explore new places. If you join I.I.E.S.T.S you'll get a chance to explore the city of Kolkata which has a rich culture also you'll get to study under the guidance of some best professors.
