I am satisfied with a great campus and good placements.

Placements: Almost whoever wanted placements got placed at some company or the other. Top recruiting companies were TCS and Infosys. Other than these top recruiting companies like Nestle, Extramarks, Wipro, etc., visited the campus. The top roles offered were developer, assistant manager of projects, marketing manager, and several other relevant roles.

There were poor to moderate placements in 2018. I am extremely satisfied with the teaching faculty.

Placements: Around 80% of the students were placed through on-campus placements while the rest of the students through off-campus placements. The salary package offered was varied from 5 LPA to 3.2 LPA. The average salary package offered was around 4.1LPA. Amazon (sales) and Godrej were the top recruiting companies. Digital system engineering and assistant system engineer were the top roles offered in our course. About 50% of the students got internships. TCS offered internships to students.

The college should improve its placement cell.

The highest salary package offered is 11 LPA, and the average salary package offered is 4.5 LPA, and the lowest salary package offered is 3.5 LPA. Internships in TCS is very frequent in the ECE department.

The unbiased review of HITK.

Placements: Many mass recruiters visit the premises. Placement is average for CS IT. Core companies also visit the campus. But the placement of core departments is just average. The college is growing so it is set to improve with time. College is well valued so off-campus placement can be pursued.

The college provides good infrastructure and facilities, but placements can be improved.

Placements: TCS was the main recruiter. Almost 350 out of 800 students were recruited. Companies like Wipro, Infosys, Amazon, Samsung R&D, etc., are few other recruiters. The average salary package offered is 3.36 LPA, and few students also got 7 LPA, the highest salary package offered is 28 LPA. Many sales companies also visited our campus for recruitment. Pool placements were also notified to students if held in other colleges.

The quality of education is satisfactory, and placements were average. Labs are well-equipped.

Placements: Placements in our college are average for B.Tech students. Our primary recruiter is TCS, and they are the ones who hire the majority of our students. Last year, over 300 students got placed in TCS; around 300 other students got placed in various other companies. In general, companies like TCS, Infosys, Microsoft, Ashok Leyland, Hyundai, etc., visit our campus for placements. The average salary package offered was 3 LPA.

Review of Heritage Institute of Technology .

Placements: Placements are very much the same as the other colleges of Kolkata. TCS company will visit on the 1st slot and recruit many of the students with a package of 3.5 LPA. However, TCS digital paid around 7.5 to 15 LPA to the brilliant students. Core companies also visited this year, but they are not satisfying.

It is a decent engineering college near Ruby.

Placements: Placements in this college were decent. There were many mass recruiters. There were off-campus drives also held in our college. Even some core companies visited our campus for the placements of core branch students. The salary package offered for B.Tech ranges 3-4.5 LPA.

Heritage Institute of Technology is the right college to choose. Worth for money.

Placements: Placements were good. MNCs like Infosys used to visit in day zero during placements. There were core companies which visit our campus. There were 100% placements. Even the faculty had a good network which was helpful to students to get an internship easily. There was no stipend offered for the internship.

This college is better than what you expect from the colleges in West Bengal.

Placements: Students are forced to apply for placement drives conducted by well-reputed IT companies like Infosys and Wipro that hire students on great numbers. People who want to get placed in core companies to utilise the knowledge they gained in the four years of their career have to sabotage the aptitude tests conducted by IT companies intentionally, or else they have to accept the job offer that they don't want to do. The students who are unwilling to accept those offers will be barred from future plac...

The infrastructure is good. Placements and faculty are decent.

Placements: Placements in HITK are quite decent. Almost 80% of the students got placed this year. If you do not have any problem in getting placed in an IT company, then our college is a good option. But if you are looking for opportunities in core companies, then I would suggest you look for some other options as most of the companies that visit the campus are from the IT sector. Core companies visit the campus for placements, but they recruit very few students from our college.

An honest review of heritage Institute of technology.

Placements: The placement season was great at our time, TCS being the highest recruiter with around 500 students getting placed in the company. Later on, other companies such as Capgemini, ITC Infotech also came for recruitment. There was an Indian Navy pool campusing also in our college. Apart from this, Godrej Boyce had come too. The average package was around 3.5 LPA. 95 percent of the batch got placed.

It is a good place to be as there are decent placements and great faculty. The campus is good.

Placements: Placements have been exceptional for our batch and in the senior batches as well. Mass recruiters along with a few product-based companies visited the campus for placements. The training and placement cell made sure almost all students got placed, be it on-campus or pool placements.

The college provides good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: Placements for our batch were good. Almost 60% of students were placed. The average salary package offered was 3 LPA. Main recruiters were TCS, CTS, Ericson, FusionCharts, etc. If you are thinking about placements, then this college is average. The TNP is poor and non-supportive. Average companies don't visit here, and the placement ratio has fallen drastically low than ever.

Teachers are supportive and the all round development of students.

Placements: For my senior batch the placements were not that great. Core streams had to join IT. But for other branches the placements were good. Even in our batch the placements were good and average salary was 3.5lpa. Almost 30 companies visited for my batch and 85% of the eligible students were placed.

A decent engineering college in Kolkata.

Placements: Placements in our college are quite okay when compared to other private colleges in Kolkata. TCS and Cognizant are mass recruiters of our college. They offered salary packages ranging from 3.25 LPA to 7 LPA, which is pretty decent for a fresher. Mostly software companies visited for recruitment. So the students from all the engineering branches were placed in a software company which is a drawback for the students belonging to the core branches.

I am quite satisfied with the faculty, infrastructure and facilities provided by the college.

Placements: Mainly, IT companies visit our college and recruit a great percentage of students. TCS is one such company which recruits around 300 students every year. Tech Mahindra, IBM and Wipro are some of the other companies that conduct campus placements in our college. Often, Infosys also visits our college to conducted placements. A few core companies like Line, Voith Paper, Star Cement also visit our college to conduct campus placements. Sometimes, Haldia Petrochemicals and Burger Paints also recruit ...

HIT-K - A Heritage in real

Placements: When it comes to placements, HIT-K has a good reputation. The percentage of students placed is around 60-65% every year with TCS being the mass-recruiter. Tech-giants like Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant also do offer jobs to the students. The average package is around 4.2 LPA as of recent years and the placement cell being productive. College does not offer internships, students have to do that on their own.

I'm satisfied with the infrastructure and faculty, but slightly dissatisfied with the lack of books.

Placements: The placement cell of the college provides sufficient support to students regarding placements. Over the past few years, not many core companies are visiting the campus for placements. However, a majority of eligible students from all the streams get placed. In the recent batch, around 50% of the students have been placed. Mostly, IT companies visit the college and the starting salary package offered is around 3.36 LPA.
