You need to look for internship opportunities on your own and arrange industrial training.
There are limited branches such as ECE, CSE where the students are provided with internships and industrial training programs inside the college campus.
Electrical Engineering is more about the field jobs so most of the students select the internship outside the campus. There are industry opportunities provided by Barauni Refinery, IOCL, Begusarai. Most of the students manage their internships by themselves rather than depending on the IOCL. You can send a mail to IOCL with all the information about you.
HIT has maintained its reputation in terms of internships. It will be either from you or by default from the college HIT.
There are very few core companies that visit the campus of Haldia Institute of Technology to recruit students enrolled in Instrumentation and Control engineering courses.

Placement Percentage | 60-70% |
Highest CTC | 7.5 LPA |
Average CTC | 3.5 LPA |
It is suggested that you extract out all of the benefits you can out of the placement cell of the institute. The standard of teaching and the methodologies followed at the institute can be considered to be above average. You can always perform well by putting in effort and by working hard.
One of my brothers was placed in a prominent company through on-campus placement. As per his experience, CGPA isn’t required for the process of getting a good job.
He scored 9 CGPA and many of his friends scored less than him yet they were successfully placed in prominent companies. The reason behind this is that marks hardly matters when recruiters visit campus moreover, they are all focused on your knowledge and skills.
Getting a good placement is definitely a dream for all the engineers but you definitely have to brush up on your skills and knowledge before sitting for the recruitment process.
Haldia Institute of Technology has a decent infrastructure and a highly experienced faculty to impart the best of knowledge and practical learning for civil engineering.
Regarding placement opportunities at this institute, you will need to score exceptionally good marks in GATE. Their GATE rank would determine the opportunities and placements in the corporate sector. Apart from the GATE rank, your technical knowledge, aptitude, and skills would give you an edge during campus recruitment.
According to the recent placement highlights the average and highest CTC offered was 3.5 LPA and 24 LPA.
Do not go for Software Companies once you are done with Civil Engineering as you would have to venture into alien fields of learning for acquiring related knowledge and expertise. Instead, go for companies that suit your course of study and would help you gain better experiences.
Based on what I heard through my friends at the Haldia Institute of Technology, the institute does not provide students with a laptop. There are several computer labs that are made available to the students to use the services. The professors impart knowledge related to your computer science subjects in these labs. The computer labs are sometimes accessed by non-computer science students as well.
Nevertheless, you are allowed to keep a laptop of your own for personal and academic purposes.
Chemical Engineering at Haldia Institute of Technology used to be one of the best courses at the institute. But with years the condition of this branch has gotten worse. The old faculty members have retired. The current faculty base is not that great.
I have a few friends from the institute and according to them, if you are keen on exploring the field of chemistry then Haldia would not be one of your best choice institutes. But the placements here are decent. In the 2020 placements, the highest and average CTC offered was 3.5 LPA and 24 LPA.
The ranks keep getting fluctuate every year and there is no surety about the exact ranks.
It is suggested to wait until the third round of counseling if you are unable to secure a seat.
However, you can absolutely get a seat in Applied Electronics with this rank. In fact, you will get it in the 1st round itself. For 2021, the opening and closing rank of this course is 9490 and 21759 respectively.
You can proceed with further admission process very easily.
My cousin is currently in the 2nd year of his production engineering course at Haldia Institute of Technology. Here are some things I got to know from him.
Positive aspects:
Negative aspects:
If you don’t have an interest in Mechanical Engineering subjects and topics then I would advise you to not opt for this branch at Haldia Institute of Technology.
Haldia Institute of Technology is a decent institute. If you are interested in civil engineering then you should rather continue with your preparation for the JEE. I say this based on the conversation I had with my friends from HIT.
Therefore, it is advisable to opt for other colleges in Kolkata for any core branch rather than the Haldia Institute of Technology. If there is a possibility or you believe that you could get into NITs or IITs then go for a year drop to try out your best luck. Otherwise, do not take a risk with it.
Placement for core branches is not good irrespective of which private institute you belong to. So, if you are choosing a private institute make sure that it is in a location from where you can easily take coaching for competitive examinations such as GATE or ESE.
HIT is a private college whereas GCECT is a government college. Following are the points of differentiation between both colleges:
You can go to Haldia Institute of Technology if fee structure is not an issue. It will offer you great exposure when compared to a government institute.
