Remarks

For an Engineering student, the big requirement is Placement. And this is the college where the maximum number of placement happens every year even in core branches. The admission is based on an entrance exam name JEXPO. You have to achieve a good rank in this exam after your Class 10 to join this college. This is the best polytechnic college in west Bengal with minimum fees and well-experienced faculties with a good and responsible placement cell. You may follow the website like quora to get more knowledgeable about this college.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

As I am interested in physics and I found more applications of physics in mechanical so I choose this stream. The faculty and student ratio in this college is about 1:15. Most of the teachers are M.Tech and they are very much experienced. They teach from basic and clear your doubts. There are 2 semesters duration of almost 6 months in a year.

Class Size: 75Course Fees: INR 1000 per year

Placement Experience

From 5th semester students are eligible for placement. There are some reputed companies like L&T, Tata voltas, Tata Power, L&T infotech, ITC, MN Dastur etc are recruiting students from our college. The highest CTC is around 3 LPA and the average is 1.44lpa. Almost 80-85% of students get placed every year. I want to pursue my higher study after passing.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fees here are very low 800 per year as admission fee and 250 for each semester exam, that's all. For west Bengal students, there is a scholarship worth 1500 per month named swami Vivekananda merit cum means scholarship for those students whose family income not beyond 2.5 lakhs.

Campus Life

4.5

There is a fest for the fresher welcome and a cultural annual fest organised by students union every year. There is a well-equiped library in this college with many books of various subjects. There are clean and well classrooms and there are also some smart classrooms. Every year a sports competition(Either cricket or football) organised by the students union. There is a Facebook page of this college.

NOT RECOMMENDED

Likes

Campus is nice. There's greenery and all
SOME of the faculties are really good and those said teachers will actually look out for you and care
Mentors are appointed for each students who are responsible for their final year project, publications and LORs. If you are lucky, you'll get a good mentor.

Dislikes

Classrooms are less compared to the number of students. Students have to wander around the building after each classes to find seats. Classrooms are very dirty
There's literally NOTHING in the labs. Experiments take way long to prepare and perform because reagents and equipments are never available.
Hardly a 2 week summer break (because of MAKAUT). Students cannot even apply to good internships because no lab would take in external students in july or august.

Placement Experience:

People who major in my department usually opt for masters over placement not because of this college but because overall industrial or academic opportunities are better with a pg degree. Masters from this college is not recommended as i have heard so from my seniors. Some of my seniors managed to crack competitives and secure MSc seats at great places. Training and Placement cell had a good coordinator previously but now its almost non existent. Companies do come and hire Bpharm, Mpharm and MSc candidates. Packages are below average. Only Nestle pays well. But if you do well you'll eventually climb up the corportate ladder. From the time i am here i have not heard of any BSc candidate getting placed. Most go for higher studies.

I like the campus , it is quite huge and green , the canteen has both cooked and packed food available, a seperate common room for students and many sports equipment available. Several functions are arranged along with international conferences held
All the faculty members are soft spoken , knowledgeable and friendly, it is easy to find help regarding anything.
Professors are strict about their syllabus and subjects , paying proper attention to the students. Practicals classes are conducted without fail.

Dislikes

There is nothing as such that I disliked because I am a first year student so I haven't been so much involved yet , I think that the washrooms should be cleaned properly to maintain the hygiene apart from thjs everything is fine.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Subjects offered in the college as well as the minor and idc subjects are well adhered to the curriculum and future aspects. The subject combinations are apt and futuristic. It moderately prepares one for real world situations.

Dislikes

Infrastructure was really bad, we did not have enough practical classes as promised
Library facility was also not good, not enough books for all students
I just got a placement with a CTC of 36k per anum. It was ridiculous to get a job with 3k salary after spending almost 3 lakhs. Also we had to pay separately for internships and all India tour which was included in the course.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The exam pattern was good. Moderate paper was there. Examiner had done a great job. For the curriculum we always had to pay extra money. In our 7th sem, we had all India tour, we did have any practical classes or theory exam still we had to pay for the practical and library not only that we had to pay for the trip as well.

You can focus on gate, or any other job teachers are helpful no issue of attendance.
easily pass as syllabus is not hard,and get a B.tech degree.

Dislikes

poor infracture, lack of resources such as sports facility.
Less qualified teachers with no PHDs, and familiar with basic knowledge.
No placements, whatever you can do is off campus only

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is perceived as average , lacking specific elements that might make it stand out. In my case, the motivation was not to waste a year by opting for a drop. The flexibility in attendance which let me focus on other interests. The curriculum is same as MAKAUT, and the exam frequency is also controlled by MAKAUT .Areas of improvement is infrastructure and better faculty.
