Remarks

I am proud to be a IIESTian. Whenever wherever I go with my parents. They feel proud of me too. People ask me how to get into IIEST, how much rank is required. And last year IIEST has been added in the NITs list by MHRD, GOI. Overall IIEST is 19th ranked by NIRF and 3rd among NITs.

Placement Experience:

I’d rate HIT’s placement opportunities as 7.5/10 overall. It’s very good for CSE, IT, and ECE, decent for Electrical and core branches, and improving every year with more companies visiting and better preparation programs. If you’re skilled and consistent — especially in coding, communication, and aptitude — you’ll almost certainly get placed before graduatin
