Hello,

,I will say Hostel life at IIEST Shibpur is too good. I will suggest you opt for the hostel. Be a boarder of IIEST hostel and feel the mesmeric magic of IIEST campus. The hostel life will give you an enormous and vast field to enjoy, have fun and learn.

You all know that we all spend a considerable amount of our college life in the hostel. So it will have a huge impact on your lifestyle at the end of the “college days”. Hostel life is going to give you the idea and strength to tackle the real life-challenging problems. By life challenging problems, I DO NOT mean any kind of ragging or politics in the campus. The IIEST campus is completely free from ragging and politics. The IIEST Shibpur is so well famous for its “greenery” campus and if you are not a hostelite then you are going to miss something very very important. You make friends, you live a life not just because you join a college but because you join the hostel too.

Some other fun facts: There is no any time restriction for boys of the hostel or hall to roam inside the campus. Sadly, Girls have to report to their hostel by 11 pm (for their own safety). Time limit to go out of the campus i.e. out from the main gates of college is 10 pm for everyone. There is no time limit for entering the campus.

Indian Institute of Engineering, Science and Technology Shibpur is one of the oldest engineering colleges of India. It has been ranked at 45th position by NIRF among universities of India. In Engineering, it has received a rank at 21st position. IIEST Shibpur is far better than many NITs and have proper placements for Information technology students. CSE and IT grab most of the placements. But if you carefully observe the placement scenario in IIEST, the no. Of the students who are getting placed in service based companies is very high like Accenture, CTS, IBM, Wipro, TCS, Infosys etc. More than 90% students get placed in reputed companies with an average package of 5 to 5.5 lpa.

IIEST Shibpur is quite good for Information Technology. You can surely go for that. But if you wish to go for special round, you can go for that. But still there lies a risk of getting a good Engineering college.

Yes, however besides completing your coursework seriously and keeping a good CGPA you should also have developed good skills in modern technologies like Data Science, Mangement, Software and AI so that besides Core you can also appear for the Non Core Companies like TCS, PwC, Infosys, Cognizant, Accenture and so on.

As far as Civil at IIEST is concerned, Core prospects are bleak. You do have few recruiters like Tata Projects, Bridge&Roof, L&T and Berger Paints coming every year and offering package ranging from 4-8 LPA. However you should also keep up with preparation for GATE and IES Exam. IIEST has a rising trend of students going for PSUs, moving abroad or to higher technical institutes in India like Top IITs or IISc Bangalore for higher studies. So you get an idea of the sea of opportunities at IIEST and the rich campus culture and peer environment.

College Infrastructure

Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology situated in Shibpur Having good infrastructure.Certainly lacks the facility & infrastructure of a top notch institute (refers to my dept.-archi), and heard a lot of complaints from my B.Tech friends about the placement department, which I presume is true to a large extent, although the new INI tag will be able to solve the problem, hopefully. But, students here get one hell of an experience of the hostel life, senior-junior relationship is something we learn to treasure and cherish.

Good college

College Infrastructure

Our college having great infrastructure with all the facilities are available. Library is very well maintained with all books and papers you need with space to study there as well. Hostels on the other hand really need serious maintainance. The food quality is very bad to average. Drinking water is not very good as well. There are no well made tables or chairs in hostels, you have to buy them on your own. For sports there are 2 big grounds where you can play cricket and football. There is separate court for basketball and one for badminton. Except these there isn't anything else in sports department.

It was pretty good experience.

College Infrastructure

Great Infrastructure but placements should be improved as there was no placement in 2020 for Applied Geology. I am pretty sure the engineering departments are very much good at infrastructure but the university authorities must pay attention t the science departments as well.
