How is Electronics and Telecommunication department in IIEST Shibpur? Should i opt it? I only want a decent placement not further studies.

Hi,

IIEST SHIBPUR is one the top engineering institutes of the country. And electronics and telecommunication department is also among the best. About the college infrastructure, it is good enough to facilitate all the needs of students who stay here. The campus is huge, which includes two major grounds, one auditorium, a student activity centre, airy classrooms, well-equipped labs etc. Most of the campus area is Wi-Fi enabled. There are separate hostels for the students of different years with different room facilities. The mess offers a variety of food for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. They take good care of health and hygiene as well. There are lots of canteens as well which offer food at a very low cost and of good taste. Sports fest is conducted almost every month (sometimes in a week), and there is a club for almost every sport. There are several research area in this department like:

Regarding placements, The placements are good enough. Almost 65-70% of students get placed every year. The highest package was offered by Microsoft (39 LPA) for 6 students, and the lowest package was offered by some of the mass recruiters like Infosys, TCS, Cognizant, etc., of 3.6 LPA. The average package was somewhere around 6 LPA. The top recruiting companies were Microsoft, Texas Instruments, PWC, ZS Associates etc. More than 50% of students grab internships in good companies like PWC, Microsoft, Texas etc. Some of the major roles offered are system engineer, VLSI design engineer, data scientist etc.

Hope it helps.
