i am student of Mining Engineering. A very reputed dept at IIEST , has its base to be the oldest mining dept of the country with the best faculty. IIEST laid the foundation of mining engg at IIT(ISM) Dhanbad back in the 1927. The dept is always up do date in terms of curriculum and include all kinds of teaching aids from the lasted software to healthy in class teaching.

The placement of Mining Engg is really good compared to all other colleges in the country.PSUs like CIL used to visit the campus but as now all the PSUs intake via gate has left it mark but still companies like, TATA STELL,VEDANTA,JMS,GAINWELL,DMT,IT Companies, etc recruit majority of the mining engineers where Tata Stell offers the most handsome package around 14lpa. These companies also offer many internships and PPO if u do well.The average salary stands arounds 9lpa which is quite decent.

We have well equipped laboratories but they aren't maintained timely in many departments.The libraries have all books required and are easy to access.Classrooms are in good condition.We have facilities of basketball,TT,gym,badminton,volleyball,chess,etc.Food is hygienic but few hostels aren't maintained.

I am studying Electrical Engineering.We have supportive and experienced professors.The curriculum is fine for exams like GATE but lacks training for developed technologies like MATLAB,etc.We can learn it on our own and seek professors' help but there is no separate facility for it.

The maximum placement goes to CST department or IT department each year.The college is taking various steps to introduce students with all the possible opportunities and also train them for placements.

I think there are various scholarships for economically weaker section offered by the government and the alumni of our college so it's affordable for all students.I still think that the fees can be used in a more efficient way. Mess fees can be a burden for some people.

Campus life is amazing here.The college is close to the city and has all required facilities near and inside the campus.Students engage in various technical,cultural and sports fest.The administration doesn't cooperate regarding the permission for some activities.

All I can say is that people should not expect 100% placements from our college but if you are hard-working and capable enough the opportunities won't seem less since now the college is taking various initiatives to keep the students updated and aware about all possible opportunities.

If you comparing with neighbouring institutions (in west Bengal)you(IIEST)are better off or on par. But in comparison with national institutions there remain huge differences. But no doubt this is one off the best college in west Bengal.

I am a computer science student so my lab is good . And very advanced technology are useing in our lab . Other departments lab also good . Teachers are to much helpful . As my experience our college study is similar any IITs.

According to my knowledge my department Placement at iiest is to good, 80 to 90 present students placed through the on campus selection . But the department wise placement varies . There is committee's in the college which helps the students for the placement.

Nice infrastructure structure all college.many facilities available classrooms, laboratories, libraries, sports centers and hostels good wifi connectivity all college. all college clean area every where.

I am studying good because better knowledge.good quality teaching available feedback system for students review teacher's and modern facilities available classrooms wifi and many other's .yes good study jod ready for students.

Placement offers also better this college. 75% to 85% students placement every year.15 to 18 lackh per annum.70 to 80 thousands average salary offered. Yes placement process easy sum criteria follow faculty also supportive.

Per year tusion fees 62500 ₹ per semester.yes i am getting money because not high compared to other colleges.

This college very very greens and many event organised every year many other activities available.

Sab kuch badiya h yar.

Boasting as the second most oldest engineering college of India, IIEST SHIBPUR has refurbished it's infrastructure at times and is now well equipped with most of the modern facilities to serve the needs of its students. It is well furnished with wifi facility, libraries and hostels to meet the requirements of the dwellers but at the same time there is much more scope to improvise it's infrastructure to adore it with a texture of a more eminent institute.

I am pursuing Mining Engineering in this college and I am quite satisfied with the quality of teachers and their way of imparting knowledge to the students. Moreover, they play an indispensable role to help students to acquire any internship or placement in the eminent firms.

There has been a considerable surge in the placements of certain branches like Mining, Metallurgy etc in the past few years while the other branches continue to hold their shine in this facet . The aspirants have been recruited with some really high perks and lucrative offers upto INR 50 lacs.

Although there has been a spike in the tution and other charges which is inevitable with passage of time, the remittance in the fees as per the various income slabs indeed relieves the aspirants of the heavy payments.

Genuinely speaking, I have comprehensively enjoyed my campus life with my colleagues and friendly staffs at several occasions (like technical and cultural fests organised every year) and still cherish those indelible moments at times.

Some buildings are old bur overall infrastructure is good . We have halls for students which are in 3rd year and above. There are 4 canteens except in hostel mess . Sports facilities are great we have 2 big grounds .

Im studying Computer Science and Technology. Teaching standards especially in our department are great. The curriculum was updated the year i joined the college so yes it is updated regularly. After 1st year everything in syllabus is important for our jobs.

Placements here are good but off campus placements are better. The average salary offered is around 9 lakhs per annum if taken of all departments. Last year we had 5-6 placements in microsoft. We also get off campus google placements.

It costs around 2 lakh per year including hostel fees

Our campus is lush green and we all have a great campus life

Contains all necessary equipment. But some equipment are little bit old. Classrooms also good. Hostels need to be improved. Hostels contains own mess and indore sports facilities. And our college contains two common grounds for football and cricket.

Teachers are highly qualified. Very good teaching. Curriculum is little bit old. Curriculum need to be improved for present needs. Some improvements in the curriculum makes us job ready and for competitive exams.

Placement for core departments need to be improved. For non core departments our college provides good placements. Almost all software companies offers placements every year. Microsoft offers good package every year. Core companies like TATA steel, L&T also offers placements.

I am satisfied with the money that I pay.

Lot of greenery in college campus.

Overall good.

Iiest shibpur is one of the oldest college therefore its infrastructure lacks behind from those of new colleges. Even though its developing since then and its facilities are upto the marks. Proper equipments in the labs,good internet connection,classrooms are well managed also the campus is cleened every few months.The biggest advantage for the students is the library which includes a huge collection of the books and its also very well managed. Living spaces mostly depend on the students.

I am studying civil engineering because civil engineering sector has lots of opportunities in the government sector and private sector too. The professors are all well qualified and experienced and their way of teaching is really good. The curriculum is not that well updated,its old a little bit and I think they should work on it. Yes,the study can make you job ready.

Quality of placements are average since many students usually get very low package. The average salary was around 7lpa. Many students get placed out of the campus because of it but Its good enough as Sime companies visit the college.

I am a ST student so it I there is no tution fees for us and it cost around 85k per year including hostel fees. I think its worth it. The quality of education and the experience we get here is unmatched to any other places.

The most amazing part is the campus life. The best is the greenry in the campus. The weather is preety good except in summer. Students can engage in football,table tennis, swimming, cricket,dancing,singing, badminton etc. Staff is really supportive in the times of need. Also the area is safe I have not heard any such cases.

On the very first day I felt really awkward and thought this wasn't the place that I dreamt of. But as the day passed, I started enjoying here. College life is all about friends and the way you spend time there. Overall I think I am in the right place.

All facilities regarding sports like cricket ground, football ground, swimming pool, badminton court, Volleyball court basketball court etc are available . Classroom contains smart facilities fully equipped with projectors. There are various equipments in the laboratory which is very very costly. Hostels contains Wifi, the food quality is good as compared to other NITs.

I am a 3rd year student from the Department of Metallurgy and Materials engineering. In college life mostly you have to learn by practicals instead of notes. So here also practicals are preferred so that you can learn and feel in easier way. There are various committees fir placements which guide students for placement.

Placement scenario is not very bad as many of the people think. It varies department wise like for the Information Technology batch placement is around 90%. The average salary is also varied department wise.

There are various Scholarships available in the College which you can easily get if you are eligible by filling the forms..

If you loves the nature and greenery environment, then this campus is for you. There are various places to sit where you can talk with your Friends. The campus is located at the bank of Hooghly river. So the weather is max. time cool.

There are various enough things in the College to explore.

The college has a very good infrastructure. Most of the old buildings are already renovated. The college library is a good place to study and is well-maintained. The classrooms are hygienic and are air-conditioned.

I am studying B.Tech in Electrical Engineering since the department is one of the best among other and is the second old one, established in 1912. The faculty members are mostly Ph.D holders and have a really good knowledge of the subjects.

The placements at IIEST are really good. Many top companies visit the college for campus hiring including TCS, Microsoft, Texas etc. Considering 2019's placements, around 70% electrical department students got placed.

The fees structure is quite affordable as is lower as compared to other nits and iits. There is a 100% fee waiver for sc and st candidates.

The campus is so beautiful with lots of greenery. There are three lakes, each of them adding beauty to the college. The college has a hospital, swimming pool, badminton court, gymnasium, school. The hostels aren't good enough but they have security guards and hence safety at the campus is highly maintained.

Overall My college is the one of best colleges among other Indian institutes.
