Placement Experience
How are the placements at IIEST, Shibpur?The placement season is going on as I write the answer. Placement process has started from July'18 for the 2019 batch and it will continue till the end of May'19. I don't know much about the placement scenario of all the departments, but yes, I can give you the details of placement stats of mechanical engineering. All the stats which I'm gonna share are the current status of placement, there are many companies which haven't visited our campus yet and I am not considering them here.NUMBERTill now 42 out of 65 students got placed. Out of these 42 students 32 got placed in core mechanical, 5 in consultancy and 5 in mass companies.COMPANIESCESC, Maruti Suzuki, Bajaj Auto, Tata power, Saint Gobain, MN Dastur, Hindustan Unilever, Vedanta Limited, Hundai, DCPL, WSP, VikramSolar, TEGA Industries, Tata projects, Elegant Marine, Denso Haryana, Haldia Petrochemicals, Aditya Birla, Eleation, Tata bluScope, JSL, JSW, Britannia, Wood group, Daimler, Tata Steel First. Whenever some says IIEST or any College has a not so good placements record, ask them to define good placements. Before categorising we must have a clear understanding of what distinguishes good and bad placements.For you, take a minute and think what is good placement to you.For me it would be :60-70% students being placed. ( there are always some incompetent students in a class. Colleges are no different. Why would a company recruit them 100% good placements are a myth)Average salary of 6?ÛÒ8 lpa .Highest Package of 40?ÛÒ50 lpa . ( this doesn't affect the college but it's something people flaunt about. So count that in )Number of Core Engineering companies, Consultancy firms and Mass recruiters.Now having defined the paparameters, let's judge IIEST Shibpur Placements.Percentage Placed : 55?ÛÒ60 % ( IIIEST loses a point here )Average salary : 6 lpa ( IIEST loses again but not bad )Highest Package : 41 lpa ( IIEST scores good )Over the last few years more than 200+ companies havw recruited from IIEST, Including Amazon, BHEL, Britania, Bridge & Roof co. Blue Star, CCD, Coal India, Capqemini, CESC, DXCorr, DVC, Essar, Essar mining, Erricson,Vedanta, TATA Steel, TATA Metallics , Microsoft, Hindustan Motors, Unilever, Shapoorji Paloonji, LnT, HSBC, Hyundai, IOCL, ITC, Mahindra, Maruti, Mu sigman, PWC, Samsung , Siemens, TATA power, Hitachi, ZS Associates etc.All of the companies listed are Core Engineering companies or Top Consultancy Giants. ( IIEST definitely gets a point here )So, out of 4 parameters we defined IIEST scores in two, manages okaish in one and loses out in one. Do the math ! IIEST seems like a good institute for placements after all.
Fee Structure And Facilities
MHRD has recently changed the fee structure of a few government institutions. IIEST Shibpur is one of them. From the upcoming session, the tuition fees itself will be 1,25,000.Yes you will get a scholarship based on your 1st year results. The toppers (based on the CGPA of 1st year) of each and every department after the completion of 1st year will receive a particular amount as scholarship from GAABESU (Global Alumni Association of Bengal Engineering and Science University) office. Not only 1st year, Merit-Based Scholarship is also given to departmental toppers for subsequent years too.You can also avail Book Grants and Need-Based Scholarship based on your annual family income only if it's low.For more information, you can visit the GAABESU office inside the campus.Although IIEST has a rich heritage of 164 years, it's been recently converted to a central level college and thus the name, ?ÛÃÂIIEST" is new. But since it has a huge alumni network, the placements are always become better year by year. The coding culture of the college has improved significantly leading to better coders and thus people getting jobs in Google, Microsoft, Barclays, Amazon. The scenario of internships has also become better, although our college doesn't allow a 6 months internship, it allows a 2 months one. Deutsche Bank, Wells Fargo both came for 2 monhs internships as well as the usual FTE roles.
