A good college which just needs time to become an excellent one.

Placements: The placement records have improved this year. However, many placement drives are yet to be organised here. This year the highest salary package offered was about 39 LPA by Microsoft IDC. But no core company visited the campus to hire the students of the aerospace department because most of the core aerospace companies ask for an M.Tech degree as the minimum qualification. There is a lot of scope for improvement.

It is a campus that you will never forget.

Placements: The department of architecture, town and regional planning in IIEST was not offered any placements in the past few years. Students after passing out either pursue master degrees from reputed institutions within and outside the country or join the well-known firms pan-India and also abroad. Most often, it is the name and prestige of their alma mater and their impressive portfolios that work wonders for them after completion of graduation from IIEST.
