Entrance Preview

WBJEE, Rank:21716 Heard good reviews about the college and good placement from the alumni and the teachers.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The college follows the curriculum provided by MAKAUT, official technical education board of West Bengal. Internal exams are conducted every month with proper exam guidelines. The results will of internal exams are carried forward to the main exams.

Internships Opportunities

No, they don't provide any sort of internship and scholarships as I know of but you may still enquire with the college.

Placement Experience

2.5

It is a not so good and not so bad kind of situation. Average 50% of students gets placed and most of them are recruited in the IT sector. Well, some companies also recruit for their sales and service. Students arrange their own internships however one summer training is provided by the college for one month. Some companies which visit our campus are TCS, Tech Mahindra, Mahindra and Mahindra, Bosch etc.

College Events

Yearly technical, cultural and sports events are organised by the college. Our college is also involved with the Rotract Club, SAE India, IET, ISHRAE etc. Students make their projects with faculty support and participate in various events. Our college has it's own technical exhibition called Technotica.

Hostel Facilities

I didn't stay at hostel but I heard food is nice. Hostels are regularly cleaned. The fees of hostel are taken at once for the whole semester about 15000. Wi-fi facility is also available in the hostel premises. .

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Exam Structure

Admission

It was an online procedure of form filling and the counselling process was also online. We went through a well maintained process and got our choices as per our priority.The notification generally releases at the month of September and the exam helds on January.

Faculty

Our college faculties are very helpful. Some of them also have published their own research paper. We follow the course curriculum provided by MAKAUT and the faculties don't face any difficulties in teaching them. Modern teaching methods of ppt and animations are used when required. Some faculties also take out of industrial exposure. The course curriculum is standard.

Helpful Faculties, the faculties over here helped us through out the course
Good clean and green campus with water supply at different places in the campus
Structured syllabus for industrial readiness in the curriculum

Dislikes

Nothing such I have disliked, but some classrooms projector did not functioned properly
Some time the guards unnecessarily behaved rude which I hated the most

Placement Experience:

The placement cell provides us with training programs and internships and also if the students are careful and disciplined in the classroms they can crack through job interviews. There is mock viva at the end semester and also some on campus hiring companies came in our college.

Average Makaut college with no placements.

Likes

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.

MCKVIE, a good college for its price

I applied for admission in many colleges like Siliguri Institute of technology, Heritage Institute of technology, Techno Main Salt Lake, Calcutta Institute of Engineering and management. (Through management quota) From the above, I got a confirmed admission in CIEM(Calcutta Institute of Engineering and Management) but i later opted for WBJEE Counseling to try my luck there. I put many colleges in My WBJEE preference list. It's very fortunate that I found out about MCKVIE at the last moment as it was a very good college considering its low price. From the colleges that i opted for both in counseling and management quota... most colleges were too expensive for me, or i was not able to get the desired course. MCKVIE was very suitable as I got CSE with a semester-wise tuition fees of around 55k. The admission process of my college was fairly systematic, I got Core CSE through WBJEE Counseling and got my seat throught WBJEE+JEE Rank. Overall admission experience was a bit lengthy process because it involved the Counseling procedures, but it was smooth and the officials were helpful and well prepared for all kinds of inconveniences...Read More

I took WBJEE, and got this college in 2nd round of Counseling...the cutoff was 32k for MCKVIE IT , i got 28k rank. Eligibility of the course is should be Higher Secondary graduated+ should be within the cutoff range.... Application fees for WBJEE was around 1.2k and other forms will be available in WBJEE website..... There is a facility called Tution Fees Waiver or TFW, only for meritful students and very less in number because in a stream there's is only 3 seats for TFW, and the family income should be less than 75k yearly and there should be domicile certificate and income certificate........Read More
