B.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering - Batch of 2028

Offered by IIEST Shibpur - Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology

4Placements3Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Strong placements, great facilities, and vibrant campus life are available at IIEST Shibpur.

Placements: Around 85% of Mechanical Engineering students at IIEST Shibpur get placed. The highest salary package offered is 15 LPA and the lowest salary package offered is 8.7 LPA. Top recruiting companies like PwC, Tata Steel, and Vedanta Oil visit the college to hire students. About 30% of students secured internships, including at IITs and IISc. Roles offered are span analytics and core mechanical engineering.

Infrastructure: Facilities at IIEST Shibpur for B.Tech include Wi-Fi-enabled classrooms, well-equipped labs, and a vast library with physical and digital resources. Hostels provide basic amenities with moderate cleanliness. The mess offers decent food, and the canteen has additional snacks. It provides sports facilities like grounds for cricket, football, and courts for badminton. Medical care is available through an on-campus dispensary.

Faculty: Teachers at IIEST Shibpur are knowledgeable and qualified. They are often helpful when approached. Their teaching quality varies, but it is generally good. The course curriculum is industry-relevant, covering core concepts and practical skills. Semester exams are moderately difficult, testing understanding rather than written learning. The pass percentage is typically high, and it is above 85%.

Other: I chose this course to pursue a career in engineering, driven by an interest in problem-solving and technology. The best aspects include a strong curriculum, hands-on experience, and exposure to various engineering fields. Improvements could be made in more industry tie-ups for internships and better practical training. The campus organises vibrant events and fests, offering opportunities for cultural and technical engagement. The campus crowd is diverse, fostering a collaborative environment. Connectivity is good, with access to nearby transport. Surroundings are peaceful and ideal for studying. Scholarships are available for eligible students. Extracurricular activities are also encouraged here.

Good campus life and exposure. Old infrastructure but enough. Good placements and faculty.

Placements: 85% of students were placed last year. The highest package was 22 LPA in Mechanical. Top recruiters were JSW, JSL, Tata Motors, ICICI Bank, Haldia Petrochemicals, PwC, etc. Roles offered are mostly those of Graduate Engineer Trainee. Many students prefer to take jobs in tech, but many prefer to take jobs in core companies. Everyone gets an internship through the DTPC of the college.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is of good speed, and the library is very good, but there is no AC. Canteen facilities are very good, and you will get multiple canteens. Sports facilities are good, especially for cricket, volleyball, football, table tennis, and basketball. You can be a member of the institute team and participate in inter-NIT events if you are a good player. Labs are also more than enough. The infrastructure is old but sufficient.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified, but only some teachers teach well. Every professor has something unique to teach you other than studies. Some teachers have a personality that will teach you how to enjoy life, and some show you the importance of seriousness in life. Overall, the faculty is nice, but don't compare their classes to YouTube tutorials. The course does not actually make you industry-ready, but when you complete it, you get enough knowledge that you can become industry-ready in the 6-month training period of the job offered to you. Exams are tough.

My honest review regarding IIEST SHIBPUR.

Placements: The maximum number of students are placed in our college, and the remaining students pursue their Master's. The highest package for the Mechanical Engineering department is 1 crore, which is an off-campus placement, and the average package is 12 LPA. Top recruiting companies for our college include Microsoft, Google, Tata, Ford, and many more companies that visit for placement drives. Many students also secure internships from the third year.

Infrastructure: Since the college was established in 1856, the infrastructure is quite old and not up to the mark. Many buildings need to be renovated and repaired. For first-year students, all classes take place in the same building. There is a central library for all students on campus. Each classroom is equipped with a blackboard, and there is a digital board used for teaching as well.

Faculty: Most of the faculty members for the first year are Ph.D. scholars, and they are experts in their respective subjects. Our teachers' teaching and explanations are really good. Yes, our course is the same across the country, and it is industry-based. The semester exams in our college are really difficult if you haven't practiced. The pass marks for each subject are at least 40, and you need to score a minimum of 40 marks to pass the exam.

My college days and campus life.

Placements: I am in Mechanical Engineering and more than 80% of students get placed every year in this course of B.Tech. The highest salary package was around 60 LPM and the lowest salary package was around 8 LPA. More than 70% of the students get internships.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is more than average in our course, and department infrastructure is also good. But internet facility in our department is poor, but Wi-Fi is available. Quality and facilities of a hostel have always been average.

Faculty: Faculty members and professors are helpful, highly qualified, and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is good for some professors, but for others, it can be a bit hard to understand. Semester exams are difficult but can be passed with hard work.

Other: I chose this course because I like it and have an interest in machines. The best part is gaining practical knowledge here. Many events and fests happen throughout the year.

Review of IIEST Shibpur - Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology.

Placements: After your 4th semester, you can apply for internship and after your 6th semester, you can be eligible for on- and off-campus placement. Companies like Accenture, IBM, Tata Steel, PWC , Wipro , Mahindra, and so on are visiting for placements and the total number of students placed the previous year is 67 out of 89 and many of the students who did not apply for placements go for higher study. As all students, I also dream of placements.

Infrastructure: HOSTEL: For 1st year to 3rd year, you have to live in the 4th hostel room, where you have to provide 1 bed and 1 table chair almirah and the hostel is fully WiFi, where you get approx. 10 to 15 Mbps. 24x7 electricity as well as water supply are there in the hostel. Food quality is good for both vegetarians and nonvegetarians, but nonvegetarians have a larger variety of foods than vegetarians. When you come for document verification and admission in college, then after your verification and admission, a hostel will be allotted and at that time you got a hostel. Hostel allotment has also some kind of rule that the students who are close to the college are not getting hostel first, which means allotment will be on the basis of distance. Courses are the same as those at other IITs and NITs. Labs and other things are also good every 1.5 months we have or midterm exam classes are hectic but manageable, as I mentioned. If you focus on the thing the teacher taught, then it is OK, but if you do not, then it is a problem for you. Then maybe you get supply.

Faculty: The faculty-to students ratio is also good and if you are good with your professor, then it is OK, but if you are not, then it is a problem for you but facilities are all well qualified and abroad returns. Labs and other thing are also good every 1.5 months we have or midterm exam classes are hectic but manageable, as I mentioned. If you focus on the thing the teacher taught, then it is OK, but if you do not, then it is a problem for you. Then maybe you get supply. The least passing percentage is CGPA and if you get more than 5 supplies, then you will fail and you repeat again.

Other: After your 4th semester, you can apply for internship and after your 6th semester, you can be eligible for on- and off-campus placement. Companies like Accenture, IBM, Tata Steel, PWC , Wipro , Mahindra, Microsoft and so on are visiting for placements and the total number of students placed the previous year is 67 out of 89 and many of the students who did not apply for placements go for higher studies. As all students, I also dream of placements. REBECA is our annual cultural fest and it is the oldest cultural fest in India and INSTRO is our annual technical fest and also there will be all departmental technical fests as well as every festival celebrated in the college. Approx. 1.2 lakh books are available in the college and the timing for study is 10am to 12am every day. 17 clubs gives various types of opportunities to explore your dreams , passions, and skills. There will be tournaments for every sport every 10 to 15 days and there will be intercollegiate and other college tournaments in which our college is participating.
