What Students Say

Likes

Campus us quite big and spacious as compares to other colleges in kolkata
Faculty members are very good and friendly
Placements is good for a tier 3 college in india

Dislikes

Very long college hours with very less breaks
Lots of surprise tests are taken by the teacvero

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The course is well structured with the syllabus designed very nicely and meeting the MAKAUT standards. The 4 years academic journey prepares the upcoming engineers for the challenges ahead by providing teaching of current and new generation technologies. The college regularly takes exams to keep the students connected to the academislcs. There are around 4 surprise tests in each semester for each subject and a Final End sem exam with the difficulty level ranging from moderate to high.

Class Size: 60Course Fees: INR 96000 per year

Internships Opportunities

2.5

Companies don't visit the campus for hiring interns. However if one manages to get an internship offcampus, the college supports the student and helps in managing academics. But college doesn't provide any internship opportunities

Placement Experience

The placements are decent with average package being 5 lacs. Highest for 2024 has been 12 lacs till now. Most students get placed at TCS and other mass recruiters. Students from 6th semester are eligible for placements. Companies like Tejas Network (10 lpa) , Cozeva (12 lpa), TCS (9 lpa, 7.5 lpa, 4.5 lpa), Mindsprint(5.5 lpa) PWC, EY etc. visit the campus and around 80% students get placed. I am placed at Tejas Networks so i will be joining the company after degree

Fees and Financial Aid

The tuition fee for the 2020-2024 batch was around 3,64,000 which has increased every year. Semester fee varies between 42k to 48k. The cost of staying in or around the college would range from 7000 to 10000 depending on standard of living and living in pg Or hostel Or flat. Scholarship schemes from the government are supported. No such campus employment as per my experience. The total cost of education would range somewhere around 7 lacs to 10 lacs

Campus Life

Multiple technical fests are organised but not on a grand stage as we see in big colleges. Although events keep happening throughout the year. The library is excellent and sufficient for everyone. It has books and computer access. Classrooms are decent sized. Few even has ACs. All the labs are well maintained and air conditioned. Sports in the college are more than expected. Cricket, football, archery etc. is played at a great level. Coaches, equipment, grounds etc are all provided. Multiple clubs are there including fashion, NSS, sports etc. are there and are quite active

Admission

Admission is mainly through WBJEE which is an entrance exam conducted for all the engineering colleges in West Bengal. The cutoff for HITK is generally high with the CS cut-off being around 4k-5k rank. Student can apply for WBJEE from their website which is generally in Nov - Dec and exam is conducted in March - April. Counselling process is quite simple and convenient. The exam is conducted once a year. Apart from WBJEE, the college also gives admission through JEE mains rank and also has a MANAGEMENT QUOTA .

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

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.

Heritage Institute Of Technology, Kolkata

I applied to plenty of state engineering colleges and only made it to UIT, BU which has awful facilities and a good ragging culture. So I opted out and went to a private college. Among private colleges, as far as I know, WB, IEM and Heritage are considered to be better. IEM's strict uniform code, zero campuses made me choose Heritage over IEM. The admission process is 1) Through West Bengal Joint counselling, which I went through, 2) Management Quota. Also, another reason why I picked Heritage over other private colleges is that it's fees is lower compared to other private colleges in west Bengal....Read More
