Studied at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (2019)

The college hours are mostly 8 am to 5 pm. But the timing depends on the schedule of the batch. The new batches have some additional subjects which are held and these often go up till 6 or 7 pm. The batches with electives may be held after 5 pm.

You will get an hour or two for lunch breaks in between when classes run till late. But this schedule is not regular as some days, the classes may be from 8 am-1 pm or 10 am-3 pm, thus it all depends on their class schedule. If the student needs to go out of campus, they must report back to the campus before 7 pm.

Where can one find the 1st year syllabus of IIEST, Shibpur?

SJ
Sandip Jana Posted On : March 17th, 2021
Studied Mechanical Engineering at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur (2019)

The syllabus of IIEST, Shibpur has remained pretty much the same over the years. At http://www.iiests.ac.in/images/all pdf/1-5STRUCTURES.pdf, you can find the structure for the 1st year.

The professor reveals the syllabus when the course begins (exact names of topics that will be covered in that semester). This syllabus keeps changing each year. Maybe it's not the same syllabus students had earlier. 

The professor either gives the paper directly after the course begins, or others do not have a habit of not giving it. You can feel free to ask your professor to give you the syllabus document in such a situation.
