IEM Kolkata (IEM Saltlake) Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

The placements are really good in the college. The placement percentage in the college is around 80-90%. From the 6th semester onwards, the students become eligible for placements. The companies that visit the college are mainly IT companies. Most of the students actually get placed in mass-recruiting IT companies. The companies that usually visit the campus are TCS, Infosys, Cognizant, IBM, Adobe, DXCorr, Tech Mahindra etc.

The students become eligible for the campus placements from their 3rd year or 5th Semester. The companies visited mainly are- TCS, Deloitte and Cognizant. The average package offered by companies varies every year but the last year an average of 3.5 LPA was offered by the companies. The highest offer was of 40 LPA last year. You can verify it by going to our college's website. About 90-95% of the students were placed every year. I am planning of pursuing one of the jobs in a Service based company after this degree and working there for a year or two before pursuing MCA.

Placement for Finance is Excellent with a very good package, for Marketing is Good as it sales cum primary research-based and Business Analytics is also good as it a new course introduced from 2019. Logistics also has excellent opportunities. PWC, E&Y, Dorma Kaba, Flipkart, Tech Mahindra, IDFC, HDFC. 90% of students get placed on campus. My plans after my MBA is to pursue a career in Business Analytics.

From the 5th semester, students are eligible for their placements. Companies like Bajaj, TCS, Oyo visits the campus. 100% placement record is maintained by the college My plan was to do MBA after BBA as I wanted to pursue higher education

You can apply for placement after the 3rd year i.e. after completing graduation. The company visited here are wipro, Tata, reliance, ESL etc . It offers 100% placement to the students . My plan is do job for 2 years the. Going for any further course after gaining experience.

Firstly, let me tell you that our 2015 batch was the first batch for UEM, Kolkata. Thus the total tuition fee of Rs 3,20,000 I mentioned is what we (the first batch) paid. The next batch onward, it became Rs 4,80,000. If I am not wrong, it is something like Rs 6,40,000 right now (not 100% sure, you have to check it).UEM, Kolkata is the university of the college IEM, Kolkata. Now, IEM Kolkata is the best private college in Kolkata. So my thought process was the higher management for both the colleges are the same, so the education and placement opportunities would be very much comparable. And based on this thinking, I chose UEM, Kolkata.After 12th board exams are done, look out for IEMJEE dates. The admission is based on IEMJEE/WBJEE rank. Through IEMJEE, you get IEM, Kolkata if you perform the best, then UEM, Kolkata if you perform good and lastly UEM, Jaipur option is given if your performance is not the best.The good aspects of my college was the teachers put in a lot of effort to teach you properly, now if you decided that you won't listen to them, your loss. College gives you additional benefits like GATE coaching, coaching for government jobs, etc. which I have seen not a lot of colleges provide. In short, college puts a lot of things on plate, whether you eat it or not is upto you. Then during placements, UEM, kolkata actually tries really hard to get it's students placed. Opportunities after opportunities will keep coming your way unless you get placed.The bad aspects that I would say is that it is a private college after all. So there are different constraints in place, money being one of them. Since a private college is not backed by any donations or government funding, thus the opportunities are not the best in the field. Few points I remember where I was disappointed are as follows:-> The books in the library are not enough for the number of students they admit per batch.-> At times, the higher authority will roll out orders which you might not like. Something like "Taking part in this is mandatory" is something we got bored listening throughout our college life.-> The higher authority thought too much at times about students. As a result, they passed down instructions to teachers so that teachers will be lenient while giving you marks (so that your marks on your CV does not look ugly). This get the students complacent and as a result, the learning is not optimal. If this cushion was taken away from students, it would benefit them in the long run.-> Not a lot of focus is given on projects. If you want to do good projects, teachers will ensure that you succeed in doing so, but if you want to be lazy and somehow pass, then teachers will allow that. You will face the consequences during placements where teachers are no longer there to back you up.-> Almost no steps are taken against plagiarism. If you copy your friends' code and submit, that is fine. If you cheat during the exam and not get caught, that is fine. If in a group project, your partner do all the work and you do absolutely nothing, even that is fine.But don't freak out. Here at UEMK, the only way you're not going to get a job is by totally giving up on studies. If you put even the minimal amount of effort, you will get placed. The placement cell here is that good.

IEM Kolkata is famous for its placements. From 3rd year onwards students start working. The students become eligible for campus placements from the 6th semester onwards. In 2020 a total of 783 offers were made. The highest package was that of 32 LPA which was offered to 8 students from Amazon after working as SDE interns. The average package was that of 7 LPA which was offered to freshers from TCS and WIPRO. In the year 2020, IEM successfully placed 90% of its students. After getting the degree I would definitely sit for campus placements. I have plans of pursuing M.TECH as well.

IEM provides the best campus placements for CSE, IT and ECE branches over 95% of the students gets placed in TCS, WIPRO, IBM, COGNIZANT, etc. The average offer a student gets is 4.3 LPA from the MNCs. Mainly IT companies visit the campus for recruitment. I would be able to sit for campus placements after completion of my 7th sem.

IEM is the best private engineering college of West Bengal in terms of placement.companies like Adobe,Amazon,Oracle comes for campus recruitment.overall placement is good.In my branch almost 80-90% of eligible students got placed.most of them got placed in mass recruiter.A good no of students goes for higher studies also with cracking good score in GATE.

Campus placement is quite good compare to other colleges in Kolkata. If you are from CSE or IT then you can get a package of 11 lacs and More. But if you are from another branch then 5 or 7 lacs you can get.
