Remarks

After my hs exam I sit for WBJEE.After getting 3427 rank in WBJEE I applied for WBJEE counseling.In which I applied for Jadavpur University, Kalyani Government Engineering College and GCELT.At first I took admission in GCELT .Then during the spot round I got ECE in Kgec.So I took KGEC ,since KGEC is much better than GCELT.

Course Curriculum Overview

I choose B Tech ECE course because it is like a bridge course between Electrical and Computer Science.So I took this because it has scope for both career in IT and in core industry In kgec student to faculty ratio is very good.Almost all the facilities of pur college are phd holders.They have done their studies from reputed colleges like IIIT,IIT,IISC,NIT etc.They are very helpful and knowledgeable.Our college follws the curriculum structure of Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology (MAKAUT).We have 8 semesters throughout the curriculum.Per semester for each subject we have 4 internals and 1 final exam.

Class Size: 65Course Fees: INR 12000 per year

Internships Opportunities

2.5

In our opportunity for internship is very bad.There is no specific intern hiring happens in our college.Our traning and placement cell and Industry institute partnership cell provides some internship opportunities time by time.

Placement Experience

4.5

Placements in our college is improving year by year.TCS is the mass recruiter in our college.Every year many companies like TCS,Cognizant etc visits our college for recruitment.Highest salary offered is 8 lpa and lowest is 3.36 lpa.Besides that one can try for off campus placement fir better package.Every year almost 70% students in our college gets their first job through campus placement.

Fees and Financial Aid

For ECE students the college charges 6000 rs per semester as fees.Besides there is 1200 rs exam and some other fees.I got full freeship for 1 st year.Besides that one can apply for svmcm scholarship offered by West Bengal govt,some private company scholarship etc.Our college administration helps students to get students loan .

Campus Life

4.5

Campus life in KGEC is just awesome.Our campus is surrounded by greenary.Every we conduct our annual techno cultural fest Expektro.It is conducted in the month of March.We have a big library loaded with every book which a student will need in their study.Our classrooms are well equipped and well furnished.Every year we organize our annual sports competition Alhambra.In college we have various clubs such as KGEC-Ecell,KGEC robotics society, etc.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

We have 5 hostels (4 for boys and 1 for girls)in our college.The rooms in hostels are very bad.Meal provided in hostel is worst.Since we have 5 hostels ,so there is no scarsity of hostel rooms.Student can opt for rented room near college campus .

Hostel Fee: INR 24000 per year

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

Campus life: Hype vs Truth

Likes

The discipline is followed very strictly.Also you have access to library which is good,teachers are helpful and no ragging policy which is strictly followed and has a decent environment.
Thery conduct seminars which encourages students.Many faculty members are knowledgeable experienced in their respective subjects and helpful willing to solve doubts beyond the classroom also.
The college has decent infrastucture including classrooms,labs and library .

Dislikes

While the curriculum is decent ,it lacks sufficeint practical implementation.More hands on projects,real world application and industry exposure would improve learning significantly.
Campus life can sometimes fell limited in terms of active student interaction.Opportunites for clubs,networking and collaborative activities could be improved.
The college comes under St tHomas School so the campus is not great it is compact and has a canteen.

Placement Experience:

I heard it from seniors that before lockdown it was pretty decent but after lockdown the company visits are not that much comapred to before lockdown.Cognizent, Accenture, Mindtree, PQ360 which is a startup company of our senior alumni etc. visits.
