The best college in North Bengal.

Placements: Around 30% of students got placed in my department. The highest salary package offered off-campus is 51 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 2.5 LPA. The average salary package offered is 3 LPA. TCS, Wipro, etc., visit the college. It depends on students if they want to apply for internships and training programs offered by Ed-tech companies. SDE, HR, marketing, and customer support roles are offered.

SIT- A hidden gem in the lap of North Bengal.

Placements: In our course, the percentage of students who got placed is nearly about 90%. The highest salary package offered by Microsoft last year was 51 LPA. The average salary package offered was 5.5 LPA. Top recruiters of our college are TCS, Wipro, Cognizant, Capgemini, Accenture, P360, and many more. There are a good amount of students who secured internships from our college but that depends upon students themselves.

The Siliguri Institute of Technology – The college campus is very good.

Placements: 8.5 CGPA, the highest package is 51 LPA and the lowest package is 2.5 to 3.5 LPA. This college gives everyone basic types of placement and internship from companies like Gapgemini, TCS, etc. Above 7.5 CGPA, communication skills are required. The college mostly offers roles in the spelling department, and there is low chance for GATE high packages.

Good infrastructure and environment for study of the technical department.

Placements: Placement for the B.Tech department is very good up to 15-18 LPA yearly. But for management, it's very less, especially for the HR and finance major students. Only technical department-related students will get a good scope to enhance their career growth and knowledge.
