Absolutely satisfied with the good placements, internship opportunities, and good faculty.

Placements: As our college is a Tier 3 college, it does not provide a good placement offer to the students. 30–40% of students are placed by on-campus placement. The highest package and the lowest package of our college are, respectively, 100000/annum and 30000/annum. The average package is 70,000/annum. Mainly Kolkata-based companies are visited in our college. In the case of internships, a smaller number of students get internship opportunities.

Absolutely dissatisfied because of placement cell.

Placements: Due to the recession this year, the placement record is too bad, and many of our seniors want to pursue higher studies. But I know the placement records of 2023. The low number of students in our college is the primary reason for the low placement reports. 42% were placed that year. The highest package offered that year was around 14 LPA, and the average package was 5.7 LPA. The recruiting companies are TCS, Capgemini, Infosys, and many leather companies. For CS and IT, SDE roles were offered....

GCELT through my eyes - 2022 to 2026.

Placements: In our college, the placement scenario is a little bit low as more numbers of students prepare for the GATE examination. In 2023, 42% of students were placed. The highest package was 14 LPA, and the average is 6 LPA. Top recruiting companies are TCS, Deloitte, Hexaware, Infosys, Oracle, etc. For more information, you can visit the LinkedIn profile of our college - GCELT.

It has nice environment for study, hustle friendly seniors, and great teachers. Join for GATE exam.

Placements: Currently, I am 1st year student. My knowledge is not enough but as I am seeing the circumstances and hearing from seniors and teachers, this is a Government college. Maximum, it tries for exams like GATE. For placements, all students become eligible but do not appear as they wish. Everyone gets single or multiple packages. The salary package is average but you can surely get a job.

It provides good faculty members. Placements are depending upon students' skill.

Placements: Placements of students are good. It depends upon the amount of hard work and rigour of consistency, students are able to put on their professional skills along with their academic excellence. Teachers are helpful, and the internships depend upon the student. Teachers are always there to guide for projects and internships. Students do internships at IITs, ISI, CMI, IISc, TIFRs, and also in corporate fields which I am more into academics.

Placements: Above 80% of the students get placements from our college. The highest salary package offered is 7 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 1 LPA, but it differs from batch to batch in our college. Above 90% of the students get internships from our course.

It is a decent government college.

Placements: Overall placements in the college were average. Don't expect 100% placements here. It is a small college. Hence if you are studying CSE or IT, you would most likely be invited for pool campusing. For leather technology, you would get a decent amount of opportunities. The college is trying to work on this front.

A college which propels education

Placements: During our 4th year placements were quite good, and around 60% of students got placed in IT sector companies like Wipro, TCS and CTS. However, one cannot expect more than this, and it can be sure to say that companies like Microsoft, Facebook, Oracle, Delloite and Amazon will not visit our college for recruitment.

Average college. Good ROI. Join if you are confident enough of your own skills.

Placements: Placements are average. Every year one or two mass recruiter like Wipro or Tech Mahindra comes where getting placed is not that difficult. But once someone miss those, its difficult to get placed. Its very much dependent on luck. Communication skills and basic aptitude skills need to be decent.

Plenty of freedom but not good placements.

Placements: If you choose GCELT for CSE/IT then don't hope for very good placements. Wipro is the only mass recruiter here but since few years it has stopped recruiting in masses. Oracle finance visits the college and the intake depends upon the performance. It would be great if some one GET placed in it rather than IT companies like TCS/Wipro, as this is the average the highest paying company (6 LPA) which visits the campus. This year 4 students were placed in Oracle finance and 8 in Wipro. Apart from thes...

Cheap but moderate. Good for middle class families!

Placements: The placements are good. Every year a lot of companies visit. The teaching staff is excellent. Some companies like Web skeeters, Ockla, TCS, etc. It's a government college and we process healthy students.
