IIEST Shibpur Reviews on Infrastructure, Campus, Placement, Facilities & Faculty

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.

IIEST has infrastructure a beautiful campus with greenery spreaded everywhere like an heaven, with all facilities and equipments eg. I Hall , CCD, Central Library, Amul Shop, Netaji Bhawan, The Oval & Lords etc. Campus has 17 hostals and Halls, WiFi and smart boards, ACs, projectors in classrooms and digital central library.They all are used and well-maintained. Delicious food is prepared for students in hostals with keep all precautions, food is be absolutly hygienic.The living spaces is clean.

I am currently enrolled in Mining Engineering Course because IIESTS Mining is absolutely worth to join it to see Placements records in Mining. IIEST, ISM, IIT Kgp & IIT BHU are real neck and neck competitors of Mining in India.Teachers are be always friendly with student and teaching quality is great.Yes,curriculum is updated with all recent developments in the feild of MIning Engineering eg. INITIUM.Recently I got 1st Rank in IIT BHU MINFEST 2020.Now,I am ready for Job as my profile is updated.

Placements quality of IIEST is good.I'm sharing data of 2019 (%student placed) -Mining Engineering(81.48%),IT(75%),CST(72.00%),Mechanical(68.57%),Electrical(63.24%),ETC(61.90%),Civil(53.85%),MET(53.33%), AE(44.44%).Highest salary package offered of 39.12 LPA from IT in Microsoft.Average salary was offered of 6.5 LPA.Yes,placement process was pleasent and easy for me.Some students got PPO from Top companies.IIEST is supportive to the students for placement process,teachers are be always friendly.

As IIEST is central Institute so there are some fees waivers-100% Tuition Fees for ST/SC/PH students,full Tuition Fee is waived for GEN/OBC whose family income is <1LPA, 2/3rd fees waived for GEN/OBC whose family income is between 1-5LPA.For GEN/OBC students whose income is >5LPA Fee is 67500/-Tuition Fee & 26400/- Hostel Fee per semester.I feel that I'm is getting money's worth because IIEST is extremely good to see it history of good placements records, extremely good academics,infrastructure.

I am describing you some points about IIEST campus life-Excellent Performance and Rich History(it is empowering nation since 1856,2nd oldest engineering college in India after IIT Roorkee having 16 departments and 4000 students are instructed every year),Green Campus with Awesome waterbodies,Wonderful Canteens,Game&Sports,Swimming pool&gymnasium,festivals as REBECA.Society of interest such as ROBODARSHAN etc.Teachers&staff are friendly.Location is near to Kolkata,so safe and amazing urban life.

IIEST gets funding from Central Government as Old IITs(Madras,Bombay,Delhi,Kanpur,Guwahati,Roorkee,Kgp) and other NIts gets 40% lesser from IIEST. IIT KGp,ISM,IIEST,IIT BHU are neck and neck competitors of Mining Engineering. According to NIRF 2020 IIEST secured 6th Place in B.Arch and 21st Rank among all Engineering Colleges in India. IIEST Shibpur is also selected in 10 colleges among IITs & IISc for collaboration with other 10 colleges of UK in UKCERI project.So, really you should join IIEST.

My college provides all the necessary facilities regarding our studies.All the required equipments are there in our laboratories.The class rooms are also well maintained,and well designed.The corridor spaces are also remains clean maximum time.

I m obtaining the degree of bachelor of technology on metallurgy and material science engineering. All the facilities are very helpful and motivates us always. We are having a well organised routine to follow.where there is we are having theory classes as well as laboratory practicals. Class tests are taken regularly,that is the best part for preparing for exams .We are also provided regular class assignment.

The quality of placement is really very well,almost 85% of the students are placed with a good salary package.The placement process is very student friendly,and also easy. And the college is too supportive in the process of placement and in other works.

Yes this college is having a student friendly policy about semester fees.I need to pay 26k per semester.And it is really value for money.i feel it is not being wasted anyhow.this type of infrastructure is worthy for this ammount.

The college campus is really amazing,full of green trees.The streets are well maintained and cleaned regularly.It is situated on the lap of river Ganga.The location of the college is Howrah, Shibpur,West Bengal.Besides the teaching faculties the non-teaching staffs are also very helpful.The capmus is too much safe for everyone.They are having all the security measures required in college.In case of any health emergency or any other emergencies college authorities take quick action accordingly.

College infrastructure is pretty poor, specially the boys hostels. I wonder there will come a time when the hostels will fall upon us. The hostels are not really worth living in, very unhygienic with dogs littering all around the hostels.

I am studying Mechanical Engineering because I have an interest on the subject. However, our curriculum is not updated according to the present requirements of the industry. Many of the softwares are not taught in college and we are asked to learn it from somewhere else.

Placements are pretty decent with CST, IT, ETC, MIN getting around 80% to 100% placement. However, The core departments like Mechanical, Electrical have around 70% to 75% placements. Civil has even less, around 60%. Metallurgy and Aerospace varies from year to year. This year the highest salary was offered by Microsoft of 36 lpa.

For a person without any quota, it costs around 1.8 lakhs per year. Considering the infrastructure and technological developments of the college, I feel it is not a great value for money. Nevertheless, the placements are decent.

IIEST, Shibpur boasts of its large alumni base and rich history. It is the second oldest college of engineering in our country. It's a lush green campus that will make anyone love the campus. But along with all this, there are a lot of loopholes there in the college. The college lacks modern amenities a bit. It lacks the modern classroom facilities. I'm not saying, that IIEST, Shibpur doesn't have modern amenities but still, it's in limited quantity. Living areas are quite spacious but not tidy.

There is not a single doubt when it comes to the academic section of the institute. This institute is basically for those students, who want to pursue research as a career option and also for learning enthusiasts. The institute has highly qualified professors and staff working day and night for the student's welfare. Along, with that IIEST, Shibpur also serves the nation by doing excessive and consistent research.

The placement scenario is average because most of the students prefer to choose higher studies or research lines. Most of the students from core departments successfully clear the GATE examination. So, most of the students are placed in the government sector rather than the private sector.

₹71,000(₹3,000-one time, refundable) is the institute fee and ₹29,500(₹1,000-one time, refundable) is the hostel fee. So, let me tell you something regarding the WiFi facility and food quality as well. Food quality is average it'll not going to satisfy your taste buds. WiFi offers speed of 200mbps or sometimes 1mbps too. You'll feel that you're not getting that much for which you're paying for, at last, it's not that worthy regarding the facility.

IIEST, Shibpur, is a renowned college with the NIRF rank 19. The professors are highly qualified. The campus is lush green. There is a large library also, the institute hall is the place where most of the workshops or events take place. Campus life is very good. Technical fests, as well as, departmental fests, also take place with this, there is the annual function. Basically, IIEST, Shibpur offers a balanced lifestyle with some sense of diversity.

At last, I'd like to say, that, IIEST, Shibpur, is one of the best NIT and research institute that will offer you a great lifestyle, great opportunity, great academics and last but not the least, it'll boost your personality and career as well. Since it has a large alumni base, so, you'll have a great chance to succeed in any form. That's all!!! Good Luck!!!

Being 163 years old, the institute is still under development of infrastructure. The lab facilities are average. however, I think the engineering departments have well furnished laboratories. The library is good. Hostels, department buildings and library has free wifi. I am not sure about boy's hostel but girls hostel are well furnished and regular hygiene is maintained.

I am pursuing M.Sc in Chemistry.The classes are regular in our department. Professors here are quite co-operative and supportive. They're always ready to help you with any trouble. As far as being job-ready is concerned, since M.Sc is not a professional course, students here are primarily told to work for clearance of NET and GATE and focus on their research career rather than jobs.

To my knowledge, placements are offered to the engineering students but chances for M.Sc students are almost negligible. If you've cleared JAM and want a job right after your masters and do not want to go for Ph.d then coming here would not be the right choice.

Academic fees is 19,500 per semester for OBC/GEN M.Sc students. And most probably 7000-8000 for SC/ST. Hostel and mess fees is 25,500 per semester. Considering the regularity of classes and labs, yes the money is worth. And mess food is sometimes good sometimes bad. But you've the right to complain in case of any issues with mess food.

College campus is a treat to the eyes for nature lover. However, some parts are not properly maintained and students often prefer not to go around those areas covered with thick bushes. Regarding the activities, students can enroll for gym, basketball, swimming, dance and music.

The classrooms are equipped with proper sound system so that students can hear the professors, even from the last benches. Rooms are spacious with proper ventilations. Laboratories are equipped with the latest equipments and have friendly lab assistants. Well-equipped library, modern basketball court, swimming pool and two large playgrounds. Though I am a day-scholar, my friends say that mess food is edible and the menu is ever changing. Also there are four on-campus canteens to fill our tummy.

Presently I am a second semester student in the department of Computer Science and Technology. The lack of access to computer during my childhood has urged me to take up this stream. All the professors are highly qualified, almost all of them have a PhD degree. Tutorial guides lab assistants are equally helpful. Our curriculum is regularly updated as required. Some professors use modern tools like Google classroom. Research projects are integral part of our college.

Placements have improved a lot in the recent times, with students getting both on-campus and off-campus offers. Placement statistics have not been completely updated due to ongoing corona crisis. However, the highest till date is 42 lpa from Microsoft. Most importantly, even during these difficult times our Director Sir has assured students not to worry and that on-campus internships and industry-collaborations are being carried out.

The tuition fees cost ₹62,500 per semester. However there are concessions per the rules of MHRD. Yes, when it comes to money's worth, there is none better than an institution of national importance.

With an area of 123 acres, the beauty and greenery of our campus never fails to amaze us. Three lakes, meditation spot, building with Gothic design and many more. Everyone is supportive here. There are many clubs where we can hone our skills. Entrepreneurship Development Cell is doing a fabulous job as well. Located in well-connected area, the students have easy access to shopping malls, restaurants, coaching centers,etc. Our campus is absolutely safe with tight security. There is a hospital.

A small suggestion. I have seen many students making unnecessary complaints about their college. They have to understand it is a college campus and not a five star hotel. It's high time they come out of their honeymoon period.

The college has a good infrastructure and the modern facilities. The classrooms and hostels are well equipped with advance technologies like WiFi, Smart classrooms, Projectors etc. Inside the campus there are two large playgrounds. There is a library with various collection of books from all over the world. The campus is well maintained by the college authorities. The food in the hostels is good and hygienic.

The college follows the academic curriculum according to MHRD Govt of India. I am pursuing my Btech in Mining Engineering because it is one of best department in college and the placement is also very good. The Professors are very much experienced and help us in every possible way.

The college has a very good Placement record. Almost 70-80 percent students were placed every year. The highest package goes with Computer science or Information technology branch. The college is very much supportive for the placement of the students. The median package is 6,00,000.

The fees structure is same like other NITs. I am satisfied with the current fees structure of the college.

The college has a very beautiful campus. It is located near botanical garden. The Environment of the campus is pollution free. There is a hospital also inside the campus in case of emergency of the students. Security 24 hours present. There are many societies for extra circular activities like music,drama,Quiz etc.

IIEST SHIBPUR is the second oldest engineering college in India. IIEST SHIBPUR ranks 19th according to NIRF ranking 2019 among Engineering institutes.

it doesn't have very good infrastructure, but its nice and its changing. we are provided projeccter ,proper linghts, fan, ac etc. the living places are not so clean and hygienic and the food is also not good.

all professors are excellent in there work, they are well qualified and helping, specially hods who helps a lot while placement. professors are very punctual at their times but are understanding too .

placement are quite good in all the branches except aerospace, i would suggest don't go for aerospace if u don't wanna do higher studies. and about other branches the placement is good due to world wide alumni network.

it is as same as any other nit. i m a general category student , so yes i feel like m paying much more than the students who have reservation but there are many who are like me so it doesn't feel much.

campus life is very good here. there are so many time limits about entering in the hostel, but nobody cares when u break it.but the other things are boring means its really old culture, there will not be may parties or short fest even in a month.

i would like to say the college is good for study and placement but, at the same time students are not changing their culture they just follow what their seniors have done from 1856 ?, which is so boring.

Good infrastructure with lot of greenery. Hostels are well prepared and have much space. Complete WiFi networks and smart boards are also available. Cleanliness is also taken care of here in the campus.

Academic is excellent . I like it so much because quality of teaching is really very good here. Faculties are very supportive to the students and overall development is the basis of academic here. Curriculum is also updated here.

Good placement records. About 70% of students are placed. Computer science, information technology and mining Engineering lead in placement graphs. Average salary is about six lakhs and highest is about forty laks per annum.

Yes, fees is manageable. It is about two lakhs per year. But I think I'm getting my money's worth here in the college. As facilities are good, academic is excellent and faculties are very good. So fees is used properly.

Campus Life is awesome here. There are several activities in which students can spend their leisure time. More than 15 clubs are operated in the campus for the students . These clubs also help in the development of personality of the students.

I'm enjoying my life here in the college. I have seen some development in my personality and thinking after joining the college. It would be a lovely opportunity for a guy to come and study here. It is one of the oldest engineering institute in the country.
