    Great Learning at the 2nd oldest engineering college

    College Infrastructure

    The college has all necessary infrastructure and the rest are under construction or maintenance or upgradation and will be effective very soon. It has one of the biggest Library comprising of around 1.5 lakh books, journals, magazines and research papers in hardcopy and soft copy as well. All the sport and gymnasium is well maintained and the girls hostel constructed recently are great but the boys one need some renovations even a 10 storey boys hostel is under construction as well.

    Academics

    Ok with this topic but the fields for work and delve deep is vast and have specialised experts to guide as well.Teaching varies from professors to professors hence ranges from very poor to excellent ones, the best in the industry and hence overall average rating.

    Placements

    Decent placement but then also not upto the marks since the average package is much below many colleges of same standard and the percentage is low as students go for higher studies may be due to low packages or even not placed or have some keen interest in any topic to have future prospects.

    Value for Money

    Prices too high not at all budget friendly for the general middle class , it seems as if we are running the others and bearing their loads in addition to ours financially.

    Campus Life

    Great campus life in the bank of river ganges and connected to Calcutta, the City of Joy. Greenery all round with heritage buildings and rich bengali culture squares up the vintage feel for a bengali.

    Just don't go after NIRF ranking it is a total scam, evaluate it personally on all the details provided in the NIRF pdf to have a good idea of the real scenario.

    College Infrastructure

    The college is old, so the hostels and classroom is not in its best shape and not very well maintained too. The lab machinery is old but atleast the lab is well maintained. The campus is well maintained and has a lot of greenery which promote good environment for education.

    Academics

    I study Metallurgy and Materials Engineering. The curriculum is outdated but the professors are good teachers. They help us grasp the basics and if we are serious with academics, it is more than sufficient to be job ready in our department.

    Placements

    The placements can be better if we see numbers but there is a high influx of core companies here and you true worth as an engineer in a core department can be tested with experience in this core companies CS placements are also amazing with high packages

    College Infrastructure

    The Infrastructure college is my good. Though we do not have sufficient amount of hostels. yet the accommodation is good. The class buildings and classrooms are well maintained. So over all infrastructure is very good

    Academics

    Our college is the second most old college in India and has a rich heritage in terms of academics. But some times some teachers get hasty in finishing the syllabus rater "teaching" us. But I think that happens in every college I assume. Very few subjects follow stone age syllabus. All the departments are up to dated.

    Placements

    Being an NIT and a institute of National Importance various famous companies visits our campus for placement. We have good record of on campus/off campus placement record. The students get placed in Google/Microsoft like places. So overall placement is good.

    Value for Money

    Course Fee for General/OBC students(Income>500000/year): aprox 140000/per year (62500/per semester tuition and aprox 7500 fee per semester others) included.

    Have a question related to IIEST Shibpur ?

    im pursuing biotech from heritage institute of technology.. is it worth it? because from csab i would have gotten civil engineering in iiest shibpur

    Choosing between Biotechnology and Civil Engineering depends on your interests and career goals. Biotechnology can offer exciting opportunities in research, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals, especially if you're passionate about biological sciences and innovation in life sciences. Civil Engineering, on the other hand, provides a more traditional engineering path with opportunities in infrastructure development and construction.


    If you're interested in biotechnology and the field excites you, it could be a worthwhile choice. However, if you feel more inclined towards traditional engineering and the opportunities it presents, you might have considered civil engineering more suitable. Both fields have their merits, so it's essential to align your choice with your career aspirations and interests.

    Hope it helps..

    can I get aerospace in iiest with obc rank 12101 no home state quota

    Hello Aspirant,

    Considering you as an obc category student , the no home state quota rank acquired by you is not enough to fetch you the aerospace branch because the closing cut off rank for aerospace was around 7344 in previous year.

    Cut offs further depend on certain factors such as number of candidates appearing in the examination, previous year cutoffs and difficulty level of the examination but I would suggest you to look for other colleges as this branch in this college is not possible.

    To get more information about the cut offs  you can check out the link given below -
