What Students Say

Likes

There are well equipped laboratories present.
The college life is good with annual techfests and cultfests
The infrastructure of the college is good.

Dislikes

The syllabus is set up by the university and is not at par with other autonomous colleges.
Placements are not good and ROI is very bad.

Course Curriculum Overview

The curriculum is designed by the affiliation university, MAKAUT and very theory oriented,rather than being practically approached. Only the computer science streams are well off with the current curriculum.

Class Size: 60Course Fees: INR 100000 per year

Internships Opportunities

1.5

Grabbing internships is very hard from the college, as the college creates a fuss about providing NOCs and there are no summer internship programs dedicated for this cause. The college focuses on final year projects more than the internships in the 3rd year and most internships grabbed are off campus at small startups.

Placement Experience

2.5

On campus placement is extremely bad and has been ever so declining over the past few years. With most placements being grabbed by the students of core dept., and tech companies recruiting very few students from tech branches. The college however boasts a 142 percent placement record, taking into account the multiple offers that a single student gets.

Fees and Financial Aid

The total fees of Btech in the current semester is 4.3lacs excluding 48k that is taken as skill development fees. Only state scholarships are available for within the state students. Campus employment opportunities do not exist as such. Roi is unsatisfactory.

Campus Life

3.5

Campus life is pretty good. The college hosts 2 annual fests, a tech fest and a cultural fest, Arcadia. There are various student clubs like Agile, and Student Chapters of various branches,which organize various seminars throughout the year.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

There are 2 hostels present on campus,one each for boys and girls. Most students opt for nearby messes or pgs which are way cheaper and less strict in terms of rules and in times. Hostels however have various facilities like generators and sports rooms, but have strict rules regarding in times.

Hostel Fee: INR 70000 per year

Admission

The college accepts admission only through WBJEE and JEE mains(later phase). The cutoffs for cse goes upto around 18k and that for CSBS goes to 22k. Students opting for lower branches can get admission even at 50k ranks in wbjee.

Faculty

Professors are all well qualified and hold mtech and phd degrees from iits around the country. But the teaching styles and methodologies are not at par with other top colleges in the state. More focus is put on bookish knowledgeable than practical knowledge.

Good Internship Opportunities

Likes

Helpful Faculties, the faculties over here helped us through out the course
Good clean and green campus with water supply at different places in the campus
Structured syllabus for industrial readiness in the curriculum

Dislikes

Nothing such I have disliked, but some classrooms projector did not functioned properly
Some time the guards unnecessarily behaved rude which I hated the most

Placement Experience:

The placement cell provides us with training programs and internships and also if the students are careful and disciplined in the classroms they can crack through job interviews. There is mock viva at the end semester and also some on campus hiring companies came in our college.

BCREC a underrated college

Likes

In my batch there are 64 student and there is only 17 girls.so the girl boy ratio is good.
This college has the largest campus of all the college in the West Bengal so college campus is really good
As I am a student of information technology so they are teaching me the course subject and also soft skill subjects that can help me in my placement journey

Dislikes

The college is located in rural area which is the bad thing
The course curriculum is not at the level of IIT NITs as we are studying some subjects which are introduced in the late semester which IIT and it and study in their second or third semester
The third thing I don't like is that the Student of the college discriminate among each other like the local residents who are bengali's day prefered their friend as Bengali

Placement Experience:

The college average placement are 6 lakh per annum and in my branch out of 64 student only 30 God placement but the mistake is of the students because many companies are visiting our colleges but they couldn't find the talent required for the skilled person they required

Review of Techno International NewTown

Likes

The college provides a moderately good infrastructure so it is more or less good. However some lab equipments have gotten old so upgrading those would be appreciated.
The teachers and students are very friendly so interacting is very easy. Teachers are mostly experienced and quite knowledgeable in their field of expertise. However the college follows the curriculum suggested by makaut which feels outdated.

Dislikes

The college doesn't give any options to play anything in college in their free time so that's an issue in my opinion. Also college isn't keen on giving NOCs for internships. Also they don't tend to provide funding to projects developed by students.

Placement Experience:

Studentsbecome eligible for placements from 7th semester. Various companies such as TCS, Infosys, Accenture, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, Godrej, etc. come for placements. Earlier many offers used to come however in the recent years the number of offers made have reduced significantly. highest package comes around 10 to 11 lakhs per annum with average being 4-5 lakhs per annum. I have kept my options open after completion of degree in doing further studies that is Mtech or getting into a job whichever seems appropriate at the situation.

Average Makaut college with no placements.

Likes

You can focus on gate, or any other job teachers are helpful no issue of attendance.
easily pass as syllabus is not hard,and get a B.tech degree.

Dislikes

poor infracture, lack of resources such as sports facility.
Less qualified teachers with no PHDs, and familiar with basic knowledge.
No placements, whatever you can do is off campus only

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is perceived as average , lacking specific elements that might make it stand out. In my case, the motivation was not to waste a year by opting for a drop. The flexibility in attendance which let me focus on other interests. The curriculum is same as MAKAUT, and the exam frequency is also controlled by MAKAUT .Areas of improvement is infrastructure and better faculty.
