What Students Say

Likes

I liked my hostel life. We hostellers have become a family.
I enjoyed different festival of our college.
I enjoyed teching style of our faculties.

Dislikes

Placement ratio could have been better. Getting a job through campus placement is very uncertain.
Road conditions within the college is not good.
Different building of our college is very scattered.

Course Curriculum Overview

1. I had completed Diploma in Electrical Engineering so Btech in Electrical Engineering was my relevant field of study. Apart from that Electrical Engineering has a very good career prospects in recent times and Electrical Engineering seemed very interesting to me during my diploma days. 2. For every 180 students we have faculties of 12. Every subject is taught by 2-3 different teachers in a semester. 3. The minimum qualification to be a faculty of our college is M.Tech. but most of our teachers have PhD degree. So it can be said that they are very qualified. Their teaching method is application based. 4.apart from semester exam 4 Continuous assessment (CA) is conducted. Each of 25 marks. CA1 - Presentation skill test CA2 - Report writing skill test CA3 - Written exam CA4 - Centralised online test

Class Size: 20Course Fees: INR 12000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

1. Different companies like CESC, MN Dastur ,TDK offer internship based on semester marks and different performances and interview. 2. Different Roles and projects are offered and required for different companies.

Placement Experience

3.5

1. Students become eligible for campus placement from 7th semester. 2. Last year companies like Tata Power, L&T, TCS, Tech Mahindra visited and total numbers of offers made are around 150. 3. Highest on campus package was 12 LPA. Average package is around 4LPA. 4. Percentage of students getting placement is 60%. 5. I am targeting for placement as well as focusing on different competitive examinations like GATE and ESE.

Fees and Financial Aid

1. As it is a government college fees are almost constant every year. Annual fees for different branches vary. Cost to study is very minimum. 2. I got Swami Vivekananda Merit Cum Means(SVMCM) Scholarship of 60000rs/year. I got full freeship in which I am exempted from giving annual fees.

Campus Life

1. Annual festival - ESPEKTRO (MARCH) Technical Festival - TECHTIX (MARCH) Along with Freshers Welcome, Farewell etc. 2. Library has a wide rang of books but journals are not available. Books are accessible by everyone with library card. 3. Every class has a projector and screen for smart study and black board. Computers are available in different labs. 4. Annual sports event is held during College Festival. Apart from that inter hostel and inter college sports events are also held. 5. Different clubs with different objectives are available. Coding club, music club, dance club, math club etc. clubs are useful to build and nurture different fields of interests.

Hostel Facilities

1. Facilities in the room - i. LAN port with unlimited free internet. ii. 1 personal sockets for each broader and 1 common switch board. iii. 2 fans and tubelight per room. iv. 2 meals a day. 2. Meal quality is pretty average. Menu can be decided from vote of students. 3. One have to register for hostel during admission. Hostel is pretty affordable. It is only 2000rs/month 4. I did not rent room but locality is good with good people and good environment.

Hostel Fee: INR 24000 per year

Admission

1. For admission in first year one must have completed 12th with Phyisics, Chemistry and Mathematics and they have to appear in West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination (WBJEE). If wbjee rank is below 3000 one has good chance to take admission in this college. For admission in 2nd year (lateral entry) one must have completed 3 yeal diploma in engineering and they have to appear in Joint Entrance Lateral Entry Test (JELET) and have to secure a rank below 300 to get a good chance for admission in this college. 2. Application form can be found in WBJEE official westsite. Application fees and dates can be found in our college official website. 3. Reseved categories get a chance to admission even with higher rank because their cutoff mark is relatively low. 4. Admission process should be fast.

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

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.
