Beauty of Ceramic Engineering

I applied to Jadavpur University for the departments Electrical engineering, Computer science engineering, and Mechanical engineering. My WBJEE rank wasn't good enough to get admission to these departments. Hence, next, I applied for Ceramic technology in GCECT and finally got it. No quota was availed during admission. I am a proud general student. The admission criteria are quite simple: we should achieve 60% marks in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics in respective class 12 boards and positively appear in WBJEE and should get a proper rank. The minimum age to appear for WBJEE must be 23 and below. First of all, after getting a call from the applied college we need to report to the nearest centre and then after the counselling process is over we need to take admission. The process is not a hectic one, just we need to have all the original copies of the documents asked to bring and have proper identity cards and then the admission takes place. Fees are required to be paid during admission.

Ceramic Technology is one of the most sophisticated departments in Engineering. This stream is not taught in many colleges with a few exceptions. And there are a lot of things to learn. Basically, it deals with inorganic chemistry and it finds a massive application in all industries, as well as several independent industries, have also established on its basis. The refractory, glass, optical fibre, whitewares, cement, abrasives are all gifts of ceramic. The faculty: student ratio for our department is approximately 1:5, as the department is quiet so we are a small family. The faculty section is extremely good. Teachers welcome students to ask doubts and queries. As we are a small family so all students are equally observed as well as groomed. Their teaching method is totally practical based though it has been hindered recently due to the COVID pandemic, otherwise, they try their best for us to learn.

Name of the companies for internships are Saint Gobain, Vedanta, Heat works, Ganguly Ceramics, Kryosaki Refractory etc. The outcomes of the project are very simple. It is just required to build up a system that is time and money efficient. That's what an engineer does.

Probably from the 6th semester students become eligible for campus placements. The companies that visit our college are Saint Gobain Vedanta, heat works Aditya Birla insulators, and many more. The highest salary paid was 7.5 lakh per annum And average salary is 4.3 lakh per annum. I should probably opt for MBA after graduation.

The fees are very much affordable to study in our college. For our department the annual fees is 6000 + ?2000 (examination fee) so basically the whole Btech course can be completed by affording only 32000. As this is State Government run college of West Bengal the financial hike is very unlikely and accordingly many scholarships are there to avail like : Vivekananda scholarship, Kanyashree (for girls) , freeship so basically if anyone is having a financial problem , no worry our college and our government is there to help you. Much industrial training for industries like Saint Gobain, Vedanta, Johnson and Johnson refractory, Aditya Birla insulators, Heat Works, and many more The above mentioned companies also come for campus placement as well.

The library in our college is good. Mostly it comprises books belonging to academic related. The fest, freshers party all are conducted timely but in an pandemic situation like this,, we don't have other option but to do it virtually. Sports events are also conducted. Social groups like Rotaract club, tech club etc are there to join.
