A place in Howrah which holds the heritage of engineering like no other college in India.

Placements: Currently, around fifty percent of our batch has been placed in really good companies like Microsoft, Google, JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Accenture, Barclays, McKinsey, and many more, and are placed with pretty good CTCs. The top roles offered in our college are SDE, Analyst, and Data Scientist.

Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are good. There is a mess and a night canteen for everyone. The mess serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the night canteen, which is open 24/7, provides snacks and a lot of other things that can satisfy your midnight cravings.

Faculty: Teachers are really helpful, and they genuinely want to see you grow. They are always ready to help you and will even go as far as talking to HRs of different companies for your placements if you're having any difficulties.

IIEST: A detailed look into the legacy of 168 years.

Placements: At IIEST, students become eligible for placements from the 7th semester, with top companies like Tata Steel, Coal India, JSW, and Vedanta. Job roles offered in operations, site management, and safety. In Mining Engineering, the highest packages range from 20-25 LPA, with an average of 7-8 LPA. The college has a placement rate of 100% for the last 4 years.

Infrastructure: At IIEST, the infrastructure and hostel life is quite comprehensive. The classrooms have modern tools like projectors and black/greenboards. The labs are well-equipped for practical work, especially for my mining engineering studies (which I have just visited). The library has a wide range of books and digital resources, and there are computer centers with up-to-date software and fast internet. In the hostel, I have access to dormitories with basic amenities such as beds, study tables, and storage. The mess provides meals, and there are recreational areas for relaxing and playing games. Health services and security measures are also in place to ensure my well-being. Overall, the facilities are designed to support both my academic and personal needs.

Faculty: All the faculty members are highly qualified and very progressive. Most of them interact very well and take doubt. The curriculum of the course is relevant and is just required to make an engineering student a good engineer. Many placement-oriented and research-oriented programs make the student ready for the industry. The semester exams are mostly on what the teacher has taught. I have no idea of the pass percentage.

Other: I applied to several institutes, including NITs and state colleges, but chose IIEST for its strong reputation, infrastructure, and balance between theory and practical training. I was particularly drawn to the Mining Engineering department as it focuses on interdisciplinary research and real-world exposure. Campus life at IIEST is a great mix of learning and fun. The annual cultural fest, Rebeca, and the technical fest, Instruo, usually take place in February and March, adding a lively vibe to the campus. The library is well-stocked with books and journals, and classrooms are equipped with modern tech like projectors and smartboards. Sports facilities include football, basketball, and cricket, alongside a gym for fitness enthusiasts. There are plenty of clubs, like the Literary Society and Robotics Club, that offer chances to explore interests and make friends, making student life fulfilling and vibrant.

College with billion dreams, which come true because of knowledge delivered by the teachers here.

Placements: About 60% of our college students are placed definitely in spite of any circumstances. Many startups like Markit Up and Blinkit hire our seniors in college. The highest salary package offered is 55 LPA and the lowest salary package offered is 5 LPA. About less than 20% of students are getting internships on our campus, which is not at all a good thing. Software developed, data analytists and machine learning engineers are selected mainly for top packages on our campus .

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi frequency and quality are average I would rate about 2.5 stars for that out of 5. Overall infrastructure is nice. Classrooms have good air conditioning with lot of windows and stuff. Students have no issues at all while learning in classrooms. Hostel is very poor for freshers like us they won't provide hot water also, food tastes very bad. I wouldn't recommend this college for a South Indian boy or girl they can't tolerate here. Medical facilities are top-class and sports are very often held here so students can actively participate in them.

Faculty: Here, the best and most important thing is teachers are highly qualified and knowledge is infinite. They will provide and explain every concept in detail to every student. I'm very grateful for that one particular thing. Course is not that much relevant, but it's moreover outdated so students must learn other skills by themselves. I would rate 6 out of 10 for difficult exams.

Totally satisfied with the faculty members and the placements.

Placements: When we talk about placement in IIEST, it is actually a very nice thing to talk about. Almost every student from the college grabs placement with an average package of 10–11 LPA, whereas when we talk about the mining engineering department, it has a 100% placement record from the college campus.

Infrastructure: As per being oldest college in India, it was established in 1856, which in itself is a great thing, so when we talk about infrastructure, it is old, but you can find that the heritage of the college is great, no doubt, and also the college administration wants to safeguard the heritage too .

Faculty: One of the best things about IIEST Shibpur is their faculty and professors, which are actually compared to faculty members of some very good colleges like top NITs and IITs. Also, professors help students avail of internships and jobs under their guidance, and for better students, they provide letters of recommendation.

The highest package ranges from 20-25 LPA, with an average of 7-8 LPA. Students become eligible for placement from the 7th semester, with top companies like Tata Steel, Coal India, JSW, and Vedanta.

Infrastructure: Rooms are occupied by four girls, the hostel has 24/7 electricity and water, Wi-Fi facility with good speed. The hostel has a mess facility, and the food quality is good for both vegetarian and non-vegetarian. There is a 24-hour security guard.

Faculty: All the faculty members are highly qualified, supportive, and have excellent skills in their teaching. Our professors' teaching style and course materials are highly relevant and effective. The exam questions were closely aligned with the course materials and topics discussed in class by our professors.

Other: Mining engineers can work in a variety of settings, including underground mines, open-pit mines, and office work. Mining Engineering also prepares for GATE or SSC exams for an officer job, with the same syllabus as your department.

Q: What to do after JEE Main session 2 result?

Candidates preparing for IITs are only required to appear for the JEE Advanced entrance exam after qualifying JEE Main. Students who who secure above the 98th percentile in JEE Main 2024 Session 2 should start preparing for JEE Advanced 2025 immediately. Those who score between 95th and 98th percentile should focus on improving their JEE Main score by taking multiple mock tests and practicing previous year's question papers. By analysing their strengths and weaknesses, candidates can identify their areas of proficiency and topics where they need improvement. If they can achieve full marks in their practice sessions, they can start preparing for JEE Advanced. However, if they cannot score full marks, it is recommended that they appear for multiple mock test series for more practice.
