Remarks

Positive things: Labs Robust examination system Some good faculty Negative: Some bad faculty and management's decision to carry on with them ignoring students bad feedbacks. Sports facilities can be improved.

Course Curriculum Overview

The curriculum is prescribed by state council and approved by aicte. In addition to that I would like to day the implementation of the curriculum is good. They take care of every subject. Exam structure is also as per the council rules. No cheating is allowed what so ever.

Placement Experience

2.5

Placement percentage is about 30 percent i will say. Though i got job from campus placement. Yes college arrange for vocational training or internships. I got my vocational training at ITD cemetation for 1 month. Which was a very good learning curve and got paid too.

College Events

2.5

TechHetc: annual tech fest, This one is the biggest and kost interesting in my opinion. It comprises of various events robo zigger, hunt for fun , code debugging, counter strike, fifa, model display to name a few. Freshers welcome ceremony Annual sports Utkarsha: the annual cultural fest

Fee Structure And Facilities

Around 60k( including a caution money of 10k which is refundable after 1 year of passing out) for admission and then arround 45 k for each semester. It is feasible by contemporary standard. But if you compare with other colleges it may sound a little bit costly.

Fees and Financial Aid

If you get good marks say above 8cgpa and your family income is low then you can apply for a scholarship. My friend got upto 40 percent off on tution fees. Also education loan facility is available with acis bank i guess.

Campus Life

Labs are very good. They are the biggest plus point of this college. Extra curricular activities i don't think they are good. There is a common room which have a TT board and a carrom. Other than than a very very small ground space is available.

Hostel Facilities

No. Hostels are good. Food facilities everything is good. But the hostel is situated at a good 5 km distance from the college campus. And they don't provide transportation. So i opted for a PG nearby.

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

Yes there is a alumni meet happening annually. I did not get a chance to attend one though i was invited. So I'm not right person to comment on this. But i have not seen any ragging at campus. If you have some connection with seniors then yes you get help. But no organised way is available.

Admission

I already had a diploma in civil engineering. I haf 2 years of experience at l&t construction. I took jelet exam for lateral entry to btech and ranked 170. Then I chose some college at counselling. HETC was my 3rd choice. But it turbed out to be good.

Faculty

In a single word satisfactory. Some are very good namely SBG for English communication, RJP for Structural analysis , Jb sir For over-all all subjects. Other than that more emphasis to be given. In this area I think more emphasis and care can be given.

Likes

Supportive Faculty - The professors are highly qualified, approachable and always willing to help students
Free wifi support - There are free wifi support for both student and faculty
Fee Structure - It is very affordable and low compared to other colleges in the region

Dislikes

Placement support is below average, and most studnets have to apply for off campus jobs independently, which is really pathetic in the era of ai where getting a job as a fresher is so difficult
There is no dedicated support or placment cell initiative to help studnets land meaningful summer internships or any kind of internships

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements starting from the 7th semester. For placement drives, we have to visit the main campus, Techno Main Salt Lake (TMSL). Since students from other Techno India campuses and branches also participate, the competition is extremely high. In the 2025–2026 academic year, fewer companies visited. Only two companies, Dronahost and WishCare, visited our specific campus directly. The remaining drives—mostly service-based companies like TCS and EY, along with a few startups—were conducted at the main campus. The remaining drives mostly service based companies like TCS, EY etc and quite a few startups has visited to main campus. The package they offered mostly in between 3.5lpa - 6 lpa. Furthermore the selection process of those startups is quite rigorous often consisting of upto 5 rounds of interview, two technical rounds with two technical interviews, and HR round My plans after getting the degree is either pursue an MBA or preparing for govt jobs

My experience about techno

Likes

Ragging free campus. Strict action are taken against those who found guilty.
Classrooms are well equipped and are spacious.
There are many fun events that happen in the college

Dislikes

The campus area is too small. The library is not good
The societies are fully controlled by students so huge partiality goes on.
Some of the teachers are mean and are not good.

Placement Experience:

From the 3rd year onwards , students become eligible for internships and stepping in 4th yr , students get eligible for campus placement. Techno provides decent campus placements according to your marks. Good marks also with skills get you better salary. Minimum 7.5 cgpa is mandatory to have you sit for campus placements. The lowest package is 3.4 LPA and highest vary but students also get 14LPA easily. Wipro, tcs ,cap ,gemini, amazon , ibm etc.
