What Students Say

Likes

Being an Autonomous Institution, the curriculum is very student friendly and regularly reviewed
No dress code for students unlike other private engineering college of West Bengal
The coding culture is good here and very competitive too

Dislikes

The Surprise test thing is not something to like
The session period is shorter than other colleges
No fest neither freshers is organised by the college in a while

Course Curriculum Overview

I chose ECE here instead of other colleges in Kolkata even though I am into Tech because of the campus life and ece being one of the closely related branches to cs. The faculty to students ratio is like 1:3. Most of the professors here have their postgraduation from JU, IIEST, NITs and IITs. Few professors are very friendly with the students as if we are friends. The end sems usually take place in Decmeber and May. Faculties provide all the materials required to prepare for the exam so it's not very hard to pass.

Class Size: 186Course Fees: INR 393200 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

HITK charges almost 4 lakhs INR to pursue BTech under merit quota. In first sem the fees is 72200, followed by 44000 in second sem, 45100 in third & fourth sem, 46200 in fifth & sixth sem and 47300 in seventh & eighth sem respectively. The college doesn't provide any kind of financial assistance but if you are a domicile of West Bengal then you can apply for SVMCM scholarship or Fee Waiver scheme initiatives run by Government of West Bengal. You can also avail TFW scheme if you have the required rank.

Campus Life

3.5

The annual fest at HITK is ECLECIA and the tech fest is called DAKSH but both of which are in hiatus since the COVID 19 pandemic. The central library of HITK has over 50k books in it's inventory. You can get any book ranging from Basic sciences to AI. Many extra curricular activities take place through out the year at Heritage to let the students showcase their skills on diverse topics. At HITK there are 20+ clubs available for students to participate in.

Admission

The eligibility of the course is to have 60% in 12th boards. To get admission at Heritage Institute of Technology under merit quota, one must have to qualify Wbjee or Jee mains and then allocation will be totally done by the Wbjee board's councelling process. And besides that, one can also get admission through management quota(10% of the total intake) There are few seats reserved for SC and ST students who are domicile of West Bengal in all the branches. And there are also TFW seats available for West Bengal domicile students. The admission process as of now doesn't require any significant change for now.

The Most Detailed Review of Narula Institute of Technology, Kolkata

Placement Experience:

The senario of placement in all of the private colleges of West Bengal are more or less the same. Majority of the students are placed in Service Based Companies like TCS, Wirpo, Infosys, HCL, Accenture, Cognizent, Capgemini, Tech Mahindra, etc. These companies offer anywhere from 3.6 to 6 lpa packages. Only a handful of Product based companies come in these private colleges and cherry pick 2-3 student per college only. This is the reality of all the private colleges, not just our college. If you want to crack a high paying job, you will have to do it off campus. The students are eligible for internships from the 6th semester itself. The college does try to provide internship to students but only a few students end up getting the internships and most students need to find internships on their own. Some companies which came in 24-25 session which offered an internship and PPO are Amazon, SAP Labs, Accenture, etc. For a detailed placement stat, go to our college's website and look for training and placement stats. The college is honest in putting these stats. The stats are mostly reliable. The highest off campus placement in 24-25 session was by Snehadeep De, who secured a SDE role in Amazon with 47 lpa CTC. This was off campus so the college had no role to play here. The highest on campus placement was by two students in the company Juspay. They were offered the SDE role for 27 lpa CTC. The average placement of all the CS branches will be around 5-6 lpa. And approximately around 60-65% of the students get placed. This is the ground reality. And its the same in all of the WB private colleges. If you want to keep a backup option in case you don't want to get a 3.6 lpa job then start preparing for GATE, CAT or Civil Services from your second year. Its always preferred to have a backup option cause you can't trust a private college for providing you jobs.

My Graduation experience from UEM,Kolkata

Placement Experience:

From 6 semester students become eligible for placement but if not trained individually by doing courses from coursera or YouTube then one cannot crack exams. College forces everyone to do a course from coursera every semester in order to get a job. And some companies like Accenture stoped hiring mid way, and Wipro did not reply after 2nd round only releasing the shortlisted student list for interview, and no interview were scheduled few companies like LT midtree and cognizant DN program gave placement opportunities with LT mindtree hiring 25-30 students and DN program being the only mass hiring opportunity . The average package being 4.5-4lpa only. Till now i did not get any reply of rejection or selection process mail from cognizant and wipro, and college has no answers. Now i have to bridge my skills after college according to company to get a job.

Course Curriculum Overview:

this college comes under MAKAUT university.it follows makaut syllabus.I chose this couse because this was the most hyped course at that time.faculties are average.as this is a very small college faculty student ratio is okay.i dont know much about faculty qualification.i think the HOD's are qualified but the teachers are not because i have to study all the syllabus from youtube.but the teachers are very helpfull.they are flexible in attendance.term exam were quite difficult because i am not good in cheating.now they have also cctv camera so now it is impossible for me to cheat.so i have to study the entire syllabus to pass.terms exams werre taken timely

Review on Netaji Subhash Engineering College Engineering Department (CSBS)

Placement Experience:

After the 6th semester, the students are eligible for placements. Mass recruiters like TCS, Wipro, Infosys, Accenture, Capgemini, etc visit every year and pick up 80-100 students per company. Other companies like Amazon, Thoughtworks, Etc also visit the college. The highest package offered by our college is 15LPA by Thoughtworks. Every year around 75-80% of students get placed on campus. I plan to get a good job work for 2-3 years and then apply for Masters. Overall the placement is very nice in this college.
