A Look into IIEST, Shibpur
Placements: In civil engineering, around 50% of students were placed for the session 2023-24. Core companies like ITDC, GKW Consult, LASA, SMS India, and TCE have recruited from this department. Non-core companies such as ICICI Bank and PwC are also involved. Internships are provided by the department in various government and non-government sectors, primarily involved in civil and construction practices.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are well-furnished and clean, with Wi-Fi available. Labs are well-maintained, though there is scope for improvement. The hostels need some maintenance, but the mess food is not an issue. The IIEST campus has large grounds where various sports activities take place after class hours.
Faculty: Experienced faculty members assist throughout the 8-semester course. In a single semester, students are required to appear for mid-semester and end-semester examinations for theory subjects. In practicals, viva-voce is conducted along with the submission of reports. Various core subjects are taught along with their practical applications, making the students industry-ready.

IIEST- once the mother of IIT Kharagpur.
Placements: After the 2nd semester, you are eligible for an internship based on your skills. After the 4th, you may receive pre-placement offers if you deserve them. Official placement starts in the 3rd year. Generally, all big companies visit, such as Microsoft, Google, Adobe, Uber, Flipkart, etc. On average, 80 to 90 percent of students get placed with an average package of approximately 8 lakhs. I also prepare for college placements because they are very good.
Infrastructure: I chose civil engineering for graduation here because it is well reputed and the oldest college for civil engineering. The curriculum here is the same as in all government colleges, but during project work or preparation for placements, the college gives you a lot of free time to develop your skills. This is a very old college, so there are not many modern hostel buildings, but they are in the best condition as they are. I think it has the best meals among all government colleges because everything is in the hands of the student senate regarding the menu for each day. Registration for hostel accommodation starts after admission. You get all the details about that on campus when you arrive. If you are interested in living in a personal rented room, then the location of the college is ideal because it is right next to Howrah, which is one of the big cities of India. You have various options for PG or rented rooms.
Faculty: The faculty here is one of the best because they are all well qualified in their respective fields. If you study hard, the faculty members here help as much as possible. They try to teach everything that is important for us. They also help us with our critical thinking and in our projects.
Other: Here, you are eligible for various scholarships. One main thing is that due to a very vast alumni network, they provide funds to the college for scholarships for deserving students. The total tuition fee for B.Tech is around 5.5 lakhs if you are general and 2/3 if you are OBC or have a family income of less than 5 lakhs. If your family income is less than 1 lakh, the total fee for B.Tech is only 50,000 rupees. The annual cultural fest, named REBECCA, is the oldest cultural fest in the country. It generally lasts for 4 to 5 days and features various big celebrities who come and perform. Each department has its own technical fest. The festive season runs for 3 months with full enjoyment. There are all types of social groups like dancing, debating, gaming, photography, filming, modeling, etc. This is a very old college, so there are not many modern hostel buildings, but they are in the best condition. I think it offers the best meals among all government colleges because students have control over the menu every day. Registration for hostel accommodation starts after admission. You get all the details on campus when you arrive. If you're interested in living in a personal rented room, the location of the college is ideal because it is right next to Howrah, which is one of the biggest cities in India. You have various options for PG or rented rooms.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure in this college is average and old, as it is very old. However, classes are equipped and enough space is there for all the stuff.

Mess provides good food quality, sometimes bad too. All sports and gym facilities are there for students.
Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified, as most of them have their Ph.D. degrees from top IITs and IISCs. They are knowledgeable and helpful and have good teaching quality; if students follow them, they will be industry-ready. Semesters are, however, average and mostly PYQs come.

A Glimpse of IIESTI is a good college at rank; you get it if you want a NIT.
Placements: About 80 to 90 percent of students are placed in IIEST Shibpur; the highest package was an 83 LPA this year and in Google. The companies are definitely there, giving packages to students. The highest placements are in computer science. Companies: almost all top companies are there, like all NITs.
Infrastructure: The labs are good. The infrastructure is very old and poor. The condition of the hostels is poor, and compared to any other college hostels, the library is very good. Classrooms are good, but there are no ACs in summer, so it is hard to survive there. The mess food is also not very good. The medical facility is okay, sports are also okay, but not very good, and no night canteen is available.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful in 1 year and qualified, but from mostly Bengal engineering teaching quality is okay. They take students on site visits, which is a very good thing that makes them industry-ready. Semester exams are very strictly conducted and no other means are allowed, and the pass percentage is also very high.
Other: This college is the oldest civil engineering college in India after IIT Roorkee and is very famous. The only thing to improve is the infrastructure and placement; otherwise, the campus is very good, the connectivity is very good, the festival is also nice, they also provide scholarships to students, and many extracurricular activities are there.
