Join this college only when if you have no other option available.

Placements: Placement is not good. You have to work yourself to get the job. College is already belong to D grade. Good company don't visit the campus. Previous year campus is also very poor. Only 20% college student get placement in previous year. Average salary offered to the student is below 2.5 Lacs.

Join BCET, Durgapur, in CS or IT department.

Almost 80% of the students get placed in on-campus recruitment out which 30% of the students get placed in BPO services, 48% of the students get placed in small companies, and the rest 2% get placed in highly reputed MNCs. Major recruiters are Byju's and TCS, and Tech Mahindra also comes to the college, but few students get placed in it. 20% of the students get internship opportunities from this college especially core branches.

In short I'll say the college is good.

Placements: Placement of this college is not soo good. But I can say that it is good. Many companies come to our college. About 75% seniors got placed til now. The highest package of this year is 9 Lacs per annum and the lowest is 2 Lacs per annum. Many seniors got internship also.

Overall, the college is good but for civil stream there are no placements.

Placements: There are no placements for civil engineering students in this college. Better you go for government colleges rather than private colleges for joining in the civil stream. For other streams like CS, IT, ECE there are lots of placements. If you are looking for a private college for CS branch, join here, you will have a chance to get 6 LPA package from this college.

Dissatisfied with the placements.

Placements: The placements are average. For boys, they had some of the pool campusing, but for girls, no facilities are available for proper placement in core companies. Directly, they say that girls are not allowed. Some IT companies visit and recruit the students in the campus placements.

Really good infrastructure.

Placements: Only 2 MNCs came in our time, that was TCS & Tech Mahindra, but that also did not make a mass recruitment. Only 10% of total students were placed. No one got any internship in our college. Our seniors placement was much better than us. That time 40% students were placed. The highest package in our college was 6 Lacs and the lowest package was 1.4 There was a placement cell, but it was not of much use.

I am happy with my college.

Placements: Placement in my college is not bad. But it need some improvement. Management of my college don't give 100% effort for the placement that's why placement is not as good as it should be. Infrastructure is nice.30percent of students were place in my college. TCS, tech mahindra, KPIT and many more companies visited my college for placement. They offered good salary.

I am absolutely dissatisfied because of bad management, faculty and also bad placements.

Placements: First of all, there are very few placements for the mechanical engineering students, it is about 5%, and this 5% is also in IT companies. The highest salary offered to the students is 2.7 lakhs per annum. About internships, no one has got an internship from this college. If any student wants an internship, then he/she has to try on their own.

Do not take admission in Bengal College of Engineering and Technology.

Placements: The placement is good. Some major companies like TCS, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, BiJo, Amazon, etc., also come but they give very low packages. But overall, the placement is good enough. The placement cell is not good enough, around 10-15% of the students get placed from here.

Not for all the branches of engineering.

Placements: The placements are below average here in BCET. All the students of B.Tech are either searching for jobs on their own or have some family business. Many companies came but with very low packages, and the roles offered were of executives and same as some trainees. There was very low scope for internships. Almost zero industrial exposure.

The college is not perfect all the way but it is good sometimes.

Placements: The placements offered are not good as compared to all the colleges. As we are engineers, we deserve a better job, but we can't get that here. Our seniors got jobs in the campus selection, but many of them were not satisfied with their jobs. They took that job because it is supposed to give a bit of experience about the sector.

Only the infrastructure is good and nothing else.

Placements: In the previous years, the placement status was moderate. But now, it is worse. Very few companies give a visit and almost select nill students. Mostly TCS, Genpact, SAP and BYJU are some of the companies which come every year with a CTC of Rs. 3 lakhs at an average. The college doesn't provide any of the internships. We have to search for them on our own. The placement cell is not at all efficient.

Below average, not recommended for engineering

Placements: The placement is average for computer science and ECE departments and below average for other departments. The average package for CSE, IT and ECE is 3-4 lakhs and the highest was 6.4 lakhs. Other departments like ME and Civil don't have much scope for placements. Companies like TCS and other MNCs also come to this college but rarely.

Bengal College of Engineering and technology.

Placements: The placements at my college depend upon the merit and talent of the candidate. Companies such as TCS, Amazon India, Tech Mahindra and Byju's visit for seeking proper and eligible candidates. Record of placements for my branch in the past 5 years is 30-35% on an average. Others opted for off-campus and their startups. Rather than the placements, the placement cell of our college is supportive and help us for our interviews. The placement in our college depends upon how the candidate has groomed...

The place is good to be if you are a mediocre ranker in the WBJEE and want to grow well.

Placements: Almost 40 percent of the students were placed. Mass recruiting MNCs like TCS, L&T, Syntel were the major recruiters. The highest package was Rs. 8.4 LPA offered by the Indian Navy to a student from my batch. The average was Rs. 3.5 LPA. Almost all the roles were for software engineers barring some.

Placements: Overall placements for this batch were really poor. Very few companies visited for on-campus drive such as Tech Mahindra, Bentley, Think and Learn and others which were not so good. Tech Mahindra took only 11 candidates from our branch. Overall 30-40% students were placed from our college.

Poor placements, terrifying faculty.

Placements: Tech Mahindra was the only proper company that conducted on-campus drive with a proper job designation and pay packet and even they picked up just 16 students. The rest consisted of local, unknown companies or companies like Amazon coming over here to hire B.Tech graduates for BPO.

Average placements with a good campus life.

Placements: Placement is very poor. Till 2016, TCS visited and now TCS is not recruiting from BCET. The highest package for ECE was 3.16LPA offered by TCS. Other companies offered a package of around 2.5LPA. For 2017 batch, TechMahindra came for recruitment. There is almost no placement for departments other than CSE, IT and ECE. Even Biotech and mechanical students are placed in IT companies.

The college should have provided better placements

Placements: Honestly speaking, in this college, the opportunities are very less for the electrical engineering students. Although 3-4 software companies turned up, they hired less number of students. It would be better if some electrical companies also came. About 30-40 percent students got placed. The highest salary offered was 4.8 lakhs PA and the average salary was 3 lakhs PA. All the students got the internship from the college.
