Course Curriculum Overview

4

Well I choose this course specifically cause you know my first preference was IEM for the rank that I got and then I was more kneen about this branch which is CSE(AIML) because of the current trend about this subject , and thankfully I got that . Well the curriculum in general, well i'll tell you , the curriculum of IEM is so hectic that even my brothers corporate schedule feels light , I mean yeah that's what not just me and my brother but a lot others people has to say about IEM . Well about the course the subject is definitely in trend right now so hopefully it prepares well for the real world . Improvements , actually this is not about college but about the whole system in India . You see in engineering there are a lot of subjects which are actually very unnecessary and you would never need them anywhere. But in this way somewhere or the other the main subjects do not get that much priority which are actually helpful for future . Well there are 3 theory and 3 practical exams per semester which is actually hectic , cause not even a moth your semester starts you would have exams . Though the level of questions are moderate .

Placement Experience

4

Well as far as mh knowledge students get to placements from 6th semester itself . Well there are placement classes from 3rd semester itself . The placement track record of the college is quite good with most year about 90% gets placed with good companies comming like Deloitte, EY GDS , JP MORGAN, Oracle , offering high amount of placement offers like around 20+ lpa . Well I am not sure about my plans maybe if the palacement is good I'll take it or will be preparing for GATE (Whose courses are also provided from college .)

Fees and Financial Aid

So i'll be very clear on this , as I was admitted through WBJEE, so I wasn't required to pay any sort of management quota , for which the fees was about 1.2 lakh for admission and 7,85,000 for 4 years . Now there are news that people do pay management quota for taking direct admission in this college with ranges from about a lakh to around 8-10 lakh (this year was high , as they didn't take admission through WBJEE) . But after admission there are no hidden charges or fines like some other colleges that do . Although there are certain small amounts like exam fees and all which you need to pay , which I guess every college takes . So can't complain about the college fees , which in my opinion is very fare compared to most private colleges of this level of placement record or even facilities.

Campus Life

3

Well I want to be honest here , there are a quite good number of fests going around the campus , but the campus size is definitely very small and the events do not happen big due to this reason . But the efforts of facilities, seniors to still carry on the event in the best way possible is actually appreciable . Talking about the library , it is air conditioned, has working computers for self study is accessible for everyone and 24/7 usable , but the books are very much limited to the course books . The classrooms do have mic , projector and computers , but sometimes they just don't work . Look for sports and extracurricular activities, there is not much space to play on campus , infact there are no grounds . But there are sports events happening quite a lot time , but due to lack of space they become difficult to play . Yeah definately there are clubs run bg the students , but not much active excluding one or two , where you have to get through and get posts through politics and if you are known to seniors .

Admission

Well other than that I definitely put Techno Main , Heritage Institute of Technology, Jalpaiguri Government, kalyani Government and Haldia Institute of Technology too . But the rank didn't allow me to get my desired branch that is CSE in kalyani and jalpaiguri, so I had to close from the private ones and if you have to pick the best one in Kolkata which was also not far waya from my hometown , definitely you choose IEM , as it definately has a good placement track record and good curriculum. Well you can get into this college through WBJEE(which they didn't took this year ) , IEMJEE and direct admission too . But direct admission requires some extra donation amounts too . So prefer qualifying the exams .

Faculty

4

Well there are separate facilities for every subjects , which aate again divided into departments . Faculties are cooperative, friendly and will help you find good amount of opportunities. You can approach them anytime and they would be there to help you out (mind I say mostly , not all ) . Well there are a lot of facilities who are definitely like the best , and their presence doesn't make you feel like they have burdened you . You would be comfortable around them and gheg would be so helpful . Well there are definitely faculties who will treat you like you know nothing and they are the persons with most knowledge, though I won't take the names but there are quite a few of them .

Night Life

1

Well the campus does not have hostels inside of the campus , its just the building . Like you will feel like you you are a day scholar even if you live in a hostel . So forget about nightlife and hangout spots . And yes the locality around is definately safe as it's situated on the main road .

Other Applied Colleges

Techno Main Salt Lake | Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] (Computer Science and Engineering)

Basically you know the rank I got for WBJEE , was enough to get me to IEM and rather being a private institution it has quite a good placement track record compared to other colleges in Kolkata .
