Course Curriculum Overview
Choosing this course was entirely based on my result in jee mains. Coming to the teaching scenario here, the professors are very well-qualified. They are from NITS, IITs and other reputed institutes of the country, although most of them are Bengali. The faculty-to-student ratio is quite satisfactory here. The professors mainly follow the blackboard and chalk way of teaching which I think is to be the best way as well, while some of them go for projectors and PPTs. You can approach them with your doubts and mostly they will not disappoint you. There is one mid-sem in each semester which is followed by the sem exam. The semester duration is 4 months, and the exams held here are of moderate level, if you study and follow the class regularly, its not that difficult to score good marks.
Internships Opportunities
The college helps with internships after the 3rd year, the CDC body looks after that. Students can do research internships and projects under the professors in the college as well. Outside students can also apply for a research internship over here which is held for two months in May and June.
Placement Experience
The students become eligible for placements from 3RD year only. The companies start coming from around August to hire. Major companies such as Microsoft, Amazon, Adobe, JP Morgan, Texas Instruments, and L&T along with some Psus such as iocl, bhel etc come for recruitment over here. Last year there were more than 600 offers made. The highest package was 70 lpa on campus and the average package was 13.64 lpa. more than 85% of students were placed. I plan to go for higher studies after completing b.tech.
