NSEC B.Tech: Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Netaji Subhash Engineering College (NSEC) in Kolkata offers a Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech) in Computer Science and Engineering. Admission is primarily through the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination (WBJEE) and JEE Mains, with an admission fee of around INR 91,500. Most students are admitted via WBJEE, with a smaller percentage through JEE Mains and direct admission. No caste-based reservations are provided, but tuition fee waivers are available for domiciled students.

The total fee for the B.Tech course is approximately INR 6.25 lakh, rising to INR 6.97 lakh for 2024. Scholarships from the college are not available, but students can apply for the Swami Vivekananda Merit Cum Means (SVMCM) scholarship and Tuition Fee Waiver (TFW) for financial assistance. The faculty at NSEC is well-qualified, with many holding advanced degrees, and the student-to-faculty ratio varies by class type. While the faculty is generally supportive, some inconsistencies in teaching quality are noted.

Students face challenging exams, especially in the first year, with a notable failure rate in subjects like math and physics. Placement opportunities are robust, with eligibility starting from the 6th or 7th semester. Placement rates range between 70% and 90%, with major recruiters including TCS, Wipro, Cognizant, Infosys, and Accenture. On-campus packages can reach as high as 60 LPA, while off-campus offers have gone up to 1.8 crore. Internships are available from the third year, with stipends between 10,000 and 30,000 INR per month.

Although high-profile companies like Amazon and Microsoft do visit, they select only a few students. Overall, NSEC provides a solid foundation for students seeking careers in computer science and engineering.
