Remarks

Positive side is that the college is one of the top rated engineering colleges in West Bengal. Negative aspect is it's location. It's quite in an odd place of Kolkata,near to Garia Railway Station. It can be reached from Kavi Subhash Metro Station.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The course curriculum is the one prescribed by MAKAUT as it is affiliated to MAKAUT. There are 2 semesters in an academic year. Total 8 semesters in 4 years course. You need to get Value Added Points too apart from the academic marks.

Placement Experience

The placements are good here. The students are required to sit in the pool campusing organized by Techno India group. The placement meter clocked around 70% each year. Internships are provided here but an individual needs to show attraction towards them otherwise they won't be offered.

College Events

3.5

Prelude-Freshers Welcome party Independence Day celebration Agamani Samhar Mesmerizer Departmental farewell parties. Then there are several other fests too like Avenir,Aavahan,etc. Several fests are organized by several brands visiting the campus.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fees structure is all same as the other private engineering colleges in West Bengal. It's 3.93 lacs in 4 years. But in order to do several trainings one needs to paid additional charges which are not quite expensive.

Fees and Financial Aid

There's a loan facility offered by the college under the aiges of Punjab National Bank. But one can take loan from several other banks too. The college directly doesn't provide scholarships. It is provided by Techno India group as per their arrangements or regulations.

Campus Life

3.5

Extracurriculars are to be rated 7/10.One will get musical fests,dance,sports,debate,quiz,technical enhancements,etc.But there's a process of taking permission from faculties and then join these otherwise the attendance percentage will be affected.

Alumni/Alumna

The alumni department depends on the department an individual will get admitted. The departments of EIE,ECE,IT,BCA have good alumni networks while CSE, BBA have average and CE n ME doesn't have any sort of network.

Admission

I did appear for WBJEE then in the counseling process,I got this college and then I went to the campus on receiving my provisional allotment letter. Then I paid the required fees and got myself admitted here.

Faculty

Faculties are good. They seem to be helpful especially when I gets promoted to the 2nd year. The departmental faculties are way better than the 1st year faculties.But nonetheless all of them are highly qualified and teach in a good manner.

Likes

Fixed timetable Classes, regular assessment and class test
The professors are very qualified and their teaching style is excellent.
A lot of books are available in the main library as well as in the department library

Course Curriculum Overview:

The syllabus and curriculum of Calcutta University is aligned with other entrance examination (eg.IIT JAM, JEST, TIFR, GATE etc.) Specially for the Physics BSc course. And the syllabus is updated Artificial intelligence bacis, Python Advance level is in syllabus, it's completed in college. Point to be Noted - The time given to prepare for the exam is sometimes ample but sometimes it is very less. So we have to prepare syllabus in time which is little bit frustrating.

NOT RECOMMENDED

Likes

Campus is nice. There's greenery and all
SOME of the faculties are really good and those said teachers will actually look out for you and care
Mentors are appointed for each students who are responsible for their final year project, publications and LORs. If you are lucky, you'll get a good mentor.

Dislikes

Classrooms are less compared to the number of students. Students have to wander around the building after each classes to find seats. Classrooms are very dirty
There's literally NOTHING in the labs. Experiments take way long to prepare and perform because reagents and equipments are never available.
Hardly a 2 week summer break (because of MAKAUT). Students cannot even apply to good internships because no lab would take in external students in july or august.

Placement Experience:

People who major in my department usually opt for masters over placement not because of this college but because overall industrial or academic opportunities are better with a pg degree. Masters from this college is not recommended as i have heard so from my seniors. Some of my seniors managed to crack competitives and secure MSc seats at great places. Training and Placement cell had a good coordinator previously but now its almost non existent. Companies do come and hire Bpharm, Mpharm and MSc candidates. Packages are below average. Only Nestle pays well. But if you do well you'll eventually climb up the corportate ladder. From the time i am here i have not heard of any BSc candidate getting placed. Most go for higher studies.

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.

Buliding a strong Foundation for higher studies and PSC preparation

Dislikes

Classrooms are sometimes overcrowded, the library has limited updated resources.
Placement support is minimal for courses like History.
There is limited digital access - poor wi-fi Connectivity and lack of e-library facilities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is relevant and theory-rich, ideal for further academic pursuits like UPSC and PSC. I chose History Honours for its analytical depth. Exams are semester-based, moderate tough. Teaching can improve with more discussions and digital learning tools.

I had got a rank in WBJEE, and during the first counselling round, I selected NSEC, got NSEC, and finalized it by paying the first semester fees. I wasnt rejected by any college, as I went ahead with my first option. The counselling round at college isnt anything special, just a question whether or not we would be able to bear the college fees, as all comes down to money. WBJEE is just a shortlisting criteria here, in most colleges in WB...Read More
