What Students Say

Likes

The collage location is very good and in prime location
Faculty is good and friendly. They listen to you.
The labs are okish. It has the study environment

Dislikes

There's no campus in this college. It feels.lkke a school
The labs equipments feel like old and outdated

Course Curriculum Overview

I have a passion for computers which started when I first started learning Java in school from class 8, that's why I chose btech computer science. Faculty is supportive and very good. teachers are well qualified and knows what they should do. Faculty: student ratio is good, I don't know the exact ratio but it's good. Since this college is under the MAUKAT, all the exams are held by MAUKAT and those exams vary from medium to hard.

Class Size: 180Course Fees: INR 800000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

Internship opportunities are there if you have the skills to crack it. Companies like TCS,WIPRO come and provide internship opportunities if you are eligible. Our college is tied up with various companies and associations which provides various opportunities to students

Placement Experience

3.5

Companies such as Infosys,TCS, Cognizant,IBM comes to our campus. Placement percentage is 75 to 80 percentage. Average is 4 - 5 lakh per annum. This year highest is 7 lakh per annum till now. Internship opportunities and placement starts from 6th/7th semester.

Fees and Financial Aid

During admission a form which was kind of a treaty was made signed by us, which mentioned that if fees is hiked we will have to comply,, and that happened. The fees was hiked in all the colleges under MAUKAT and we were no exception. Fees hiked by almost 2 lakhs. For many poor students who are below poverty line, it is a problem. When it comes to scholarships the college approves national and state scholarships and also some well known ones. Our college tries to help those who have difficulty in paying fees which I don't have so much idea about

Campus Life

2.5

There's no campus at all. Only 3 buildings surrounded by society complexes . Although the location is in a prime area, just above the VIP road, Kolkata. The library is good. It's has a voracious collection of books related to engineering. Various clubs/forums are there such as Tech forum, arts and literature forum, sports forums, drama clubs etc.Students can join upto a max of 2 forums of their choice. Sports at all levels. For example football, inter-stream tournaments, college level tournaments, occurs. College also provides aids to those who play for states and participate in nationals. MAR points are allocated to those. Coding Ninjas events and competition occurs in college which is organised under the tech forums

Admission

Eligibility - WBJEE/ JEE RANK, 12th percentage - 76 minimum, 10th percentage - 80 minimum, MATHS, PHYSICS, CHEMISTRY should be compulsory subjects in 12. And if candidate is from West Bengal then domicile certificate is required

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.

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.
