University of Calcutta, B.Tech, Instrumentation Engineering

Reviewed on Jun 22, 2020

Remarks

placements can get even better as compared to superior academics,there can be more extracurricular activities,clubs and campus shoul be extended to admit more students here. clear placement detail should be given to public.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

this is a 4 year 8 semester b.tech couse in instrumentation engineering,the syllabus is according to modern industrial needs and there will be a mid semester and final semester exam jin each semester, theory and practical papers are evaluated separately.

Placement Experience

placements are good,by number chemical engineering gets the highest placement,I heard internship is provided at third year but details are not clear and there is no data in university website.One can ask passed out students if he/she wants proper details about it.

College Events

At the beginning for first years there will be Freshers,for me it was held for 2 days and it was really good,then there will be many tech festivals, sports meets etc.There are not so many festivals like other private colleges in kolkata, education is the first priority here.

Fee Structure And Facilities

the fees are second cheapest in west bengal for engineering,the fees are INR 3642 for each semester for every engineering stream,even other government colleges have at least two times fees than here and private are basically out of reach for any poor and lower middle class family.

Fees and Financial Aid

there are scholarships but they are not that high,you can get loan through banks but fees and other expenses are very very low,if you get scholarships from west Bengal and indian government than basically you will get engineering for free(college-hostel and other fees included)

Campus Life

3.5

there are not so many extracurricular activities,there are tech festivals, sports meets, technical seminars.The labs are really good,all computers have good hardware and good internet connection to access any data.

Alumni/Alumna

It is one of the oldest institution in India so alumni network is huge,one three HODs of electronics in IIT Kharagpur,IIEST and jadavpur university were from university of Calcutta.Alumnies are well placed in top mncs all over the world.

Admission

I got admission through my rank in West Bengal joint entrance examination,one will need good rank to get into demanding engineering courses here,then there will be online counselling but the final admission process will be held physically at the university campus.

Faculty

4.5

the faculties are very good and most of the processors have Ph.D,also other educational staffs are good.Classes are held regularly.practicals are regular and you can even interact with professors on phone or email.

One of the things i liked the most was the quality of lecture given by the professors
The campus is very spacious the college has every facility
A fully equipted studio and lab for Journalism students

Dislikes

Things i disliked was the most has to be the locality the college is really nice but the locality is a bit shady

Course Curriculum Overview:

I always wanted to take up Journalism as a career and the thing which caught my attention in this college is that they have a fully equipted studio room and other colleges may have one but the students even publish there own news report here it prepars us very well for the real world

Likes

Supportive Faculty - The professors are highly qualified, approachable and always willing to help students
Free wifi support - There are free wifi support for both student and faculty
Fee Structure - It is very affordable and low compared to other colleges in the region

Dislikes

Placement support is below average, and most studnets have to apply for off campus jobs independently, which is really pathetic in the era of ai where getting a job as a fresher is so difficult
There is no dedicated support or placment cell initiative to help studnets land meaningful summer internships or any kind of internships

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements starting from the 7th semester. For placement drives, we have to visit the main campus, Techno Main Salt Lake (TMSL). Since students from other Techno India campuses and branches also participate, the competition is extremely high. In the 2025–2026 academic year, fewer companies visited. Only two companies, Dronahost and WishCare, visited our specific campus directly. The remaining drives—mostly service-based companies like TCS and EY, along with a few startups—were conducted at the main campus. The remaining drives mostly service based companies like TCS, EY etc and quite a few startups has visited to main campus. The package they offered mostly in between 3.5lpa - 6 lpa. Furthermore the selection process of those startups is quite rigorous often consisting of upto 5 rounds of interview, two technical rounds with two technical interviews, and HR round My plans after getting the degree is either pursue an MBA or preparing for govt jobs

I don't know much about this but I guess from the sixth semester the students are eligible for campus placements. This year a student from AEIE got a package of 11.2 lacs per annum and the average is around 4 lacs per annum.

The 2nd college I applied to was Heramba Chandra College and I received the admission confirmation there as well. However, by that time I had already secured admission to Jogomaya Devi College....Read More
