As nits falls under tier-1colleges and have very very strong brand name which leads to strong alumni network which have great ability to iinvite big companies for placements . The average package goes around 9 lakhs and highest went upto 33 lakhs


Hope you found this answer informative. Best wishes for your future


Hi Soumen,

Hope you are doing good. The Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology (IIEST) Shibpur is under the NIT council and it admits students based on JEE Main rankings. Earlier it used the WBJEE rankings to admit students. So, it never took admission of students based on marks obtained in class 12.

Hope this helps.

Hello Aspirant,

Since you have not mentioned your category so considering it as General.

As we go through the latest cut-offs of JEE-Main 2020 of JOSAA 6th round then it shows that :-

Closing ST rank for IIEST Shibpur was :-

  • Computer Science and Engineering  branch - 2783 (Home state quota)

So you have quite low or almost no chances to get IIEST Shibpur with CSE branch even if you have Home state quota.

You can check out the latest cut-offs from the link given below :-

Less people across India are aware of the Magnificence of IIEST Shibpur, being One of the best and Oldest Colleges in Eastern India, much before IIT Kharagpur was established. Hence mostly you find students from West Bengal, Odisha and Jharkhand as well as Nearby States at IIEST.

Secondly, candidates usually prefer a seat in NITs over any GFTI. True, Placements in NITs are much stronger, but if your Aim is Research or Academia in future or be it moving to US for a MS/PhD or even if its MTech from IITs in Future, IIEST is the Place to be, with its excellent faculty and curriculum, strong alumini network and research facilities besides various Tie Ups on Projects with IIT Kharagpur and Other Top Universities. Many of the IIEST Students after Graduation move to US for PhD, hence you find dedicated study groups. Apart from this, you even have strong Placements nowadays, with the Industry rising in the Eastern part of India. Top Recruiters like PwC, TCS, Infosys, Microsoft, Amazon, Adobe, Vedanta, Tata Steel, Tata BSL, Tata Motors and many others are regular on campus.

Yes, its a Good Place for Architecture, with one of the Oldest Architecture Departments in India. Apart from strong faculty, studios and infrastructure, you even have some scope for Placements in Non Core Sector Firms, along with Engineering Undergraduates, though low chances. Incase, youre determined to move abroad for a Masters in Agriculture or maybe MBA after B.Arch hence  Preparation, IIEST is the Perfect Place to be. Incase youre unable to secure a Place in some of he Good SPA's, NITs for Architecture, IIEST must be preferred.

For more information and Reviews about B.Arch at IIEST do follow the link below

Dear Aspirant,

EE is the study of electrical things and it is a core branch whereas the Chemical Engineering is the study of chemicals which will be used in the many fields like defence, etc.After all it depends on you which subject excites you the most and it will be easier for you if you choose it.

IIEST Shibpur:-

Placements: Around 60-70% of the students get placed. From the previous Statistics companies like Tata Steel, Cesc, PwC, and a bunch of other companies visit here for placements. The average package is around 6-7 LPA. The highest package was around 37LPA from Microsoft.

Infrastructure: All the labs and the classrooms are well maintained. There is a very well maintained library although the hostels are a bit old. There are also gym facilities along with two playgrounds. The campus is wi-fi enabled with separate hostels for students belonging to different years.

Faculty: All the professors are Ph.D. holders and are very knowledgeable. They give their best they can. There is a very good research environment here. The courses curriculum design might be a bit old but changes are being made to make students industry-ready. The semester exams might be described as a bit difficult.

VNIT Nagpur:-

Placements: In VNIT Nagpur, many companies hire students for the IT sector such as Microsoft, Amazon, Udaan, etc. For better knowledge of basic and advanced robotics, they have different clubs such as IV laboratories for software engineers, and electrical engineers. About 70% of students got placed, and the highest salary package offered is 11.5 LPA in CSE. The lowest salary package offered varies from 6-7 LPA in CME, and the average salary package offered is 7-8 LPA in ECE and EEE. In civil, the salary package offered is 6.6 LPA. The highest salary package offered was in CSE of around 35- 40 LPA. Top role offered is of architecture.

Infrastructure: The boys' hostel is glamorous with spacious rooms, and it provides the best facilities. They clean rooms regularly, and hostel life is fun. There are no such restrictions in the boys' hostel after the first year, and for girls, the timings are restricted up to 10 PM. The campus is also known for its greenery surroundings. On the backside, there is a lake on which students can do photoshoots, and spend time with their friends. They also provide facilities for indoor and outdoor games like football, cricket, badminton, table tennis, volleyball, carrom, chess, etc. The ground is good and well maintained.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, but some teachers are strict in their subjects which is a good point for students' better performance. All professors are highly qualified from IITs and NIT, and some other top universities with high teaching experience. For semester exams students must study properly, and pay attention from 1st day of the class itself. As we often hear that after going to IIT or NIT we didn't have to study maths, which is not true. If students want to be different from others and make their own identity on-campus then they have to study at least 3-4 hours a day. Exams are moderate in terms of difficulty level. They also conduct online exams which have 5-7 questions in 1 hour, and mostly they theory and numerical-based. It has a good grade system so that students can score well, at least 35-40 marks.

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

Verified Review

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.
