Having its rich culture. serving nation since 1856 still many don't know about IIEST just because its renaming. But Since 2014 it became IIEST its growing exponentially. Admission through JEE-Main helped a lot to it.

Course structure is good like all other IITs, NITs. Exam occurs twice in a semester - mid sem examination and end sem examination. 2 Class tests also taken by professor one before mid sem and another after mid sem.

Placement and job scenario in Computer Science Department, Information Technology, Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, Mining Engineering is more than 80%.

Since its an INI institute so fees structure varies according to rules and regulations by MHRD on the basis of family income. For SC, ST tuition fee is 100% waived off. For General and OBC if family income less than lakh 100% off, 1-5 lakh 66% waived, Above 5 lakh no waived. Hostel and mess given by everyone.

Hostel rooms are quiet good.Infrastructure is old but still it maintained properly.4 people share rooms upto 2nd yr.Facilities 24×7 light, water, Wi-Fi.Washing Machine, RO on each floor, hygienic mess but not too much.

Yes, they are very helpful. IIEST having largest alumni network all over in India. Alumni Cell worked for the same. They initiated many infrastructure projects in and around campus. In the month of December every year alumni meet conducted for fruitful interactions of current students with alumni.

I qualified the Joint Entrance Examination (Main) with a rank. By the end of June counselling process start which last upto 3rd week of July. Through counselling I was allotted a seat in department of Civil Engineering. After few reported physically and submit and verify all the documents and then institute accepted it and allotted a hostel. Finally I got admission.

Faculty is superb but some are lazy.They all are well qualified and many passout from IISc,IITs and foreign universities.All are really helpful.Many visiting professor are also their.Some professor also visit other premier institute.
