What Students Say

Likes

Placement Opportunities are better than contemporary private colleges
Most of the teachers are well educated on their domain
Many student benefits like College Email, Coursera Access, Apti Preparation for Placements

Dislikes

Congested College Campus. No free space or things like ground where students can sit and relax
No attached sports ground. It is really important to take care of these aspects
Senior Junior Interaction is somewhere very less unlike other colleges where they interact more frankly

Course Curriculum Overview

Most of the curriculum for ECE matches to what is required to work in the domain. Some improvements can be done regarding inclusion of more computer subjects or introducing some subjects earlier. From 3rd yr, there are alternatives to choose from. In some cases the alternatives both are important CS subjects and can be included and some subjects which are neither interesting nor important can be replaced

Class Size: 180Course Fees: INR 140000 per year

Placement Experience

From 6th Sem, students become eligible for placements. The college brings some good companies as well as mass recruiters in the campus for placements. Some major companies that come are - Cognizant, TCS, Wipro, Capegemini, Oracle etc. The offerings depend on company to company. Although a majority get selected in mass recruitment companies, some grab really good packages from other companies.

Fees and Financial Aid

Complete Cost of 2021-2025 batch is 5,60000 INR / 4yrs. I don't know the exact amount but I have heard the semester fees has increased from 70,000 in the following years. This is just course fees, hostels and other services etc cost separate. There are financial assistance and scholarship programs for financial weak background students

Campus Life

The overall experience with campus life is not good for me. The campus is solely 3 different buildings in 3 different locations of salt lake, and there is no campus life as we understand. There is no attached playground, no free space inside the campus where students can come under the fresh air and interact with each other in a healthy manner Classrooms are good, recently in ECE department the classrooms and some labs got AC approved. So comfort is not an issue. The college library is very very well equipped. It's large, consists of many computers and has a vast book collection College conducts 2 major festivals in a year. 1 is Tech and another one is more of entertainment fest

Admission

The college takes admission through both JEE Mains and WBJEE exam. Apart from it, they have their own exam also named IEMJEE. I got admission through both Mains and WBJEE. The admission process is smooth and like other colleges only if you have valid documents

Faculty

3.5

I can talk about my department. Most of the faculty members are well qualified and well knowledgable. A good portion of them are good eductors too, an aspect where most of the private colleges lag behind

A decent private engineering college to pursue B.Tech

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course for my interest in computer science. It more or less helps in real world applications or further academic pursuits. The syllabus must be reconstructed and many useless topics and subjects can be avoided in our course.

Aliah University ( Cheap & Good )

Placement Experience:

Despite the low fee structure, my college provides a good placements. Almost every student of CSE Dept who sit for placement, gets the placement between 4lpa - 6lpa. Last year the highest package was ?12 lpa. ECE department has the lowest percentage of placements. And other engineering departments have between 60-70% placement. All the mentioned above is the description of in campus placement. Not many students of my college opt for out campus. But if they do, they get good placements as per the reports. In 2021 a student secured the job in Microsoft, with the placement of ?45 lpa (out campus).

Review of -IEM College

So I take admission through WBJEE in IEM KOLKATA in B.tech in electrical engineering. So now I talked about eligibility criteria:- You should pass your +2 from any board with a maximum of 60% Admission in this college is 3 types WBJEE, JEE MAIN, IEMJEE all three forms you will get notified by college dunia if you have an account in it. So the IEM KOLKATA is one of the best private colleges in Kolkata and you can say in India also so the cuttoff goes very high you have to get minimum rank for this college. This college admission procedure takes 2 days 1st admission to the college it will take 6 hours. 2nd makaut registration will take next 4 to 5 hours.

Review of My IEM University

When I was searching for the best college to get the admission, some people told me to try for Institute of Engineering and Management (IEM) and after I got admitted to this college, I really understood that I selected the right college. I will always prefer this college because discipline is strictly obeyed in IEM and all the teachers are like parents. In 2019, admission was going on offline and it was held around the month of July. This year, due to covid pandemic, the admission process was held around the month of October and from 2nd November, online education started for the first year batch. According to me, the one and only bad aspect is that every semester, Rs. 65,000 is to be paid by each and every student to continue with their education which is quite high according to me. But in other aspects, IEM is overall the best institute and especially for ECE stream....Read More
