Remarks

Since it was the most affordable college in West Bengal it was one of my top picks and given my WBJEE score this was the best college int terms of placement statistics I could've got into. I always wanted a college in my state that will be close to my home and also I would be in around my own culture.

Course Curriculum Overview

All our professors have high qualification and are well experienced. Maximum of them try to blend with students and help us not just academically but also give good counselling. Whatever they teach helps us in placement quite a lot.

Class Size: 87Course Fees: INR 68000 per year

Placement Experience

Big companies like TCS, Capgemini, Oracle and Wipro come for placements so if one is good enough then he has the oppurtunity to get himself placed in a good company. Not all students get placed though the highest package is around 6 lakhs and average is near about 3.5 Lakhs

College Events

There are four hostels in college and their fees is not very high. The food is not very good it takes a lot of time to get used to but can be tolerated. Classrooms are quite old but labs are well equipped and the large library makes up for it quite a bit.There are various clubs and socities in college covering all domains like coding, entreprenuership, photography, dance and music etc.

Fees and Financial Aid

It is a very affordable college the fees is quite low and affordable for almost everyone.My fee for first year was 16,500.Some students can even get full waiver of tution fees and some 50%.SC/ST and other minority students are provided financial aid by the Government.

Campus Life

4.5

There four hostels in the campus seperate for boys and girls Food in hostel is quite bad.There are paying guests in the city but are way expensive than the hostel and even worse food quality.Classrooms are satisfactory but labs are quite good. The library is big enough to find whatever one is looking for. The wifi is available around the campus and is very fast gives speed upto 10 Mbps. Overall it is satisfactory.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Hostel building are quite old but maintained but food is quite poor, there is not much variety in menu. There are both veg and nonveg available. Hostel are affordable enough including the food given the quality its priced well.

Admission

Only gave entrance WBJEE. There are no GD, or interview. WBJEE is generally held in February but due to covid dates might have altered in the last couple of years. Test preperation is similar to any other entrance exams. Syllabus is of classes 11th and 12th.Test is taken in two halves one for physics and chemistry and other solely for maths. All questions are MCQ.

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

Techno India University , College Review

Likes

One of the best things about my college is all the classrooms and labs are fully air conditioned. The classrooms, labs and even the toilets are cleaned regularly, which really helps to create a comfortable learning environment.
All the clubs of the college remain active all the time no matter whether it's technical clubs or fest related clubs like fun events domain, etc.
The most important thing is that the college is entirely ragging -free. College also maintains a healthy girls to boys ratio.

Dislikes

The classrooms are quite compact compared to the number of students in each class . At times it feels overcrowded and a bit uncomfortable during lectures.
Some of the faculty members are relatively inexperienced. It often feels like they don't have full command over the subject they're teaching, which can affect the overall understanding of important concepts.
Another issue I've noticed is the irregularity in certain subject classes. Not all subjects are taught consistently every semester , and there are high chances of some classes getting missed or not scheduled properly.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible to sit for placements form 7 th semester that is from the beginning of final year. Usually the service based companies come here with cgpa criteria and offer jobs to students.

Dislikes

Labs are not well maintained the machines are very slow

Course Curriculum Overview:

In case of my couse everything is coverd but it would have been much better of they focus on practicals more rather than theory. If they make us aware of all the new technologies that are used in the industry.

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.
