Satisfied with faculty members, good placement in 2020, good infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: On average about 75% of students got placed. Circuit branch students have a 90% placement rate, while core branch students have a placement rate of only 60%-70%. The highest salary package offered is 50 LPA, and the lowest salary offered is 6 LPA. The average salary package offered is 10 LPA. Around 50% of students secured internships. Top roles offered in our course are structural engineer and manager.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good. Classrooms are okay but the sound system is very bad. Backbenchers can't hear anything. Labs are very good. Library is open from 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM. Mess food is very bad, but there are vegetarian and non-vegetarian sections. All hostels have particular gym and badminton court.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and well-educated and graduated from top colleges in India. All teacher's teaching styles are unique. They are very friendly. Course curriculum is relevant and it makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are very tough. Pass percentage is 40%.
Other: In my rank, this is the last option. The best thing about college is this is a government college. Annual fest Rebeca and tech fest Instro are conducted. Campus has greenery.

IIEST: carrying the legacy of over 100 years.
Placements: We have 102 students in my course; the last batch had 109 students, and 60% of them got placed. The highest package was 11.74 lacs, the lowest was 3.3 LPA, and the average was 6.8 LPA. Top recruiters are ICICI, PwC, Techno, Mageba Bridges, and Haldia Petrochemical. 27% of students got internships, and 4 students had PPOs from PwC at 9.3 LPA. Top roles offered are graduate engineer trainee, consulting roles, and software engineer in a few companies and management roles in banks.
Infrastructure: The faculty members are top-notch here; they have completed their graduation and PhDs from IIT Kharagpur and Jadavpur University and top NITs. Keep in contact with them, as they'll assist you in providing internships. We haven't had ACs in 4 years in our department except in our seminar hall. Luckily, another building is being constructed for the civil engineering department. Classrooms are well-ventilated and spacious, but you might suffer a little bit during summers as humidity is at maximum level. The library has thousands of books; it's the best thing in college, having each and every book for departments. Hostels are clean, washrooms are cleaned on a daily basis, and there are 4 sister rooms in the 1st and 2nd years. Food in the mess is quite good; non-veg is made twice a week, having fish also in lunch. Biryani is made once a month. We have a hospital on campus with all the important medicine and a doctor there. We have 2 grounds, Oval and Lorda, for football and cricket where students play in the evening.
Faculty: Teachers are exceptionally knowledgeable, except a few who just come up and read the PPT. They're open to your doubts anytime; that's the best thing. The course is obviously relevant for the core field, having all the civil engineering requirements. People in their 2nd year of summer have secured their internships in top IITs. Semester exams are easy; just cover the notes well and last 2 years of PYQs. Start 7 days before midsem and 15 days before endsem. You'll easily bring 8 SGPA.
Other: Being the 2nd oldest engineering college, civil engineering was the first branch of the college since 1856. I opted for this college, as it has a vast alumni network among top companies and IITs. I would prefer to increase the software part a bit more in our course. So that students going for non-core are helped. The cultural fest REBECA is the best of Kolkata; we've got top celebrities from all over India. It's a 4-day fest. Connectivity like Howrah Junction is 7 km away; you'll easily get the bus outside college. An airport is at a 50-minute distance from our college. We've received GaaBesu scholarships from our alumni and various government organizations. The surroundings are beautiful; you'll have too many places to visit after coming here. The campus itself is so beautiful, having old buildings giving the Harry Potter castle vibe.

Dissatised with infrastructure and placements. Really good teaching faculty members.
Placements: College has a robust placement record, attracting a number of reputable companies across various companies like TCS, Wipro, Google, Texas Instruments, Vedanta, L&T Ltd, and some others. The highest placement package in 2024 was 45 LPA. The average salary package was 7.5 LPA.
Infrastructure: IIEST is the second-oldest engineering college in India. So, the infrastructure is not as good as expected. Food in the hostel mess is not very tasty, but it is healthy. Both indoor and outdoor games are available at the hostels. They conduct inter-hostel competitions among the hostels. Wi-Fi is available in the hostel and classrooms. Campus has 4 canteens. Hospital facility is available 24 hours on campus.
Faculty: As per my knowledge, the student-faculty ratio is 11:1. All the teachers are good in their subjects, and their background in research is remarkable. Most of the faculty members are good at interacting with students. There are two semesters in a year. The difficulty level of the paper is moderate. The number of classes is very less during the mid and end-semester exams.
Other: I am a Civil Engineering student. I chose this course because the college itself started with the Civil department, and the alumni network here is almost very big. The job opportunities are somewhat less, many students opt for higher studies. College offers various scholarships like Bharati, Amazon, Reliance, etc. The nightlife at the IIEST Shibpur is very good and enjoyable. College organizes events like INSTROU, the largest technical fest in Kolkata which is handled by IIEST students. REBCA, is another fest organized for 3 days, where the college is decorated with lights and flowers.

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.

College with the oldest legacy and heritage (since 1856).

ICICI bank, JSW Cement, ITD cementation, EEL, PWC, etc. I came for internship and placement, both. Engineers, trainees, consultants, managers, etc. job roles were provided.
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. Library facilities are provided to every student. Hostels are having four occupancy in the watch room till the third year and single occupancy for the fourth year. 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.
Other: I chose this course as I wanted to do a government job and having this course from this oldest and most reputed college is a matter of pride for me. The campus has the best facilities and surroundings, with connectivity with Kolkata city.
