Course Curriculum Overview

2

I am fascinated by tech and the best option of tech related branches available for my rank was JGEC. So I chose it. There are 6 main faculties in the IT department. So the faculty : student ratio in the department is nearly 1:10. Talking about the qualification of faculties, they are highly qualified in their respective fields,but talking about the teaching method, I would rate it 4/10 since most of them are not regular, so they just run behind finishing the syllabus before exam. Exams are held timely and are very easy to pass because 90% of the questions are repeated from past papers.

Fees and Financial Aid

The academic fees of the IT degree is 1.1 lakh for 4 years. There are scholarships and financial assistance for students whose family income is less than 2.5 lakh per annum. (I can't avail any scholarship, so I can't provide any further details ).

Campus Life

2

Annual tech fest here is shristy (this year it was in November) and annual fest is jeclat ( march-april). The college library has all the required course books which can availed by any student during the library hours. Classrooms are old and need to be renovated. Sports and extra curricular facilities are good. There are many clubs ,groups etc in which any student can join at the start of the academic year ,attend seminars ,do projects,participate and win prizes. ( naming of all clubs is not possible, there are many).

Admission

Admission to Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College is done through Wbjee. For getting into IT department, the rank cutoff is about 2500 to 3000. Anyone with PCM in their class 12th can get into the course. The application form is available on the wbjee website and all other details regarding the form,exam,fees is there on the site. The admission process is very smooth here.

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

Placement Experience:

7th semester is when the students get to sit for placements. I am not sure about the total no of companies visited but I am aware of the name of few companies like IBM Infosys Wipro Capsitech Tech Mahindra cognizant etc . Mostly the girls are 100 percent placed cause there is diversity hiring. Mass recruiters is what visit our campus mostly.. I personally would look for a job after graduation highest package offered displayed by college is 75 lpa but I don't think so it is real. Maybe someone had worked hard and got placed off campus. On campus highest isbi guess 12-14 lpa

Course Curriculum Overview:

- I choose Data Science as it is new to my college when comparing with the other branches. The curriculum is just okay it is not per industry standards but if students deep drives in each aspects then they are likely to crack GATE exams. - The whole curriculum needs and improvement from the very 1st Year and removal of irrelevant subjects like Discrete Mathematics, Electonics, Biology for IT branches are required. - Semester exams are conducted every 6 months and CTs are conducted every 2 months
