Entirely a government college so who cannot afford money for private colleges can take admission.

Placements: As this college started in 2016 i.e. not old so, placements were not good. But some famous companies like TCS, Mahindra, L&T, etc., visited to hire students. Percentage of placements will be 30%. The highest salary package offered was 8 LPA. The lowest salary package offered was 2 LPA. Around 10% of students got internships.

CGEC: Best college of North Bengal

Placements: Overall placement at CGEC is good. Many reputed companies like TCS, Wipro, Capgemini, and Byju's recruited many senior students at my college. In some years, 80% of students got placed in high-demand branches like ECE and CSE, where students got the highest placement.

Cooch Behar Government Engineering College (CGEC) is a prominent public technical.

Placements: The college has made efforts in improving its placement record, with companies from various sectors like IT, core engineering, and manufacturing visiting the campus. However, the placement numbers are not as high as those of more established institutions. While many students are placed in decent roles, there is room for improvement in terms of industry partnerships and overall placement support.

An Honest and Gentle Review of CGEC.

Placements: Students are eligible for campus placement from the very beginning of the third year. Many MNCs do visit, like Amazon, TCS, Wipro, Capgemini, Cognizant, Deloitte, Accenture, L&T, etc. The highest package was 18 LPA, and the average package is around 7 LPA. Mostly 60 to 70% of students get placed by the end of their term. My personal plan after getting my degree is to complete my Master's further.

Solid education with good placements, but the curriculum needs more industry focus.

Placements: Around 60-70% of students in CSE at Cooch Behar Government Engineering College are placed. The highest package is ₹10 LPA, the lowest is ₹3 LPA, and the average is ₹4-5 LPA. Top recruiters include TCS, Wipro, and Infosys. About 30-40% secure internships, mainly in IT firms. Top roles include Software Developer and Data Analyst.

CGEC: An honest college review.

Placements: The placements are not up to the mark with roughly about10% students getting placed from the college campus. The highest package offered is 21 Lacs per annum (as told by one of my senior) and average package is 3.5 lacs per annum. Most of the companies are IT based companies, no core companies visit for campus interviews. Internships are available.

CGEC: a hub of learning and experience.

Placements: Coochbehar Government Engineering College is good in academics but the placement rate is not so good. Every year, almost 250 students pass, but a maximum 20 students are placed in placement. Due to the lack of importance given to the responsible officer, more than 85% of students do not have a job.

A Raising Institute - CGEC.

Placements: Placement-wise, CGEC is decent because it is a new college (founded in 2016). Many companies like TCS, Wipro, Cognizant, Infosys, etc., are the main recruiters for on-campus placements. Placement for non-core branches like ECE and CSE are getting higher packages, but placement for core branches is not as good compared to non-core branches. However, the placement for 2024 is poor, with only a few students getting placed in good companies and securing decent packages. Some students are studying fo...

Good college at low fees .

Placements: Placement records are not too good; every year, mostly 2 or 3 companies visit the campus like Mindtree, cognizant, Tata, etc. The college authorities arrange a tech fest every year for the students. Students show their skills via this fest. There are only 30% of students placed every year.

Life of a student in CGEC.

Placements: The placements this year have been average compared to last year, primarily due to some TPO issues. Currently, around 10 percent of students from our batch have been placed, with an average salary package of 6-7 LPA. Placements are still ongoing in our college, and prospective students can expect more opportunities in the upcoming years if they choose to join.
