Faculty:

their is one mentor around 3 to 4 students in almost each branch and each banch have their specific teacher to teach teir subject. i like the proffesor of computer science, professional ethics physics lab. and the proffesor i dislike more is mohammad sir form mining and rana roy from the department of aerospace and applied machanic becuse of my own reason also some proffesor of electrical department. the exam are averagly difficult you get enough support from the proffesor so that you get passed with good insight about the subject if you attend enough classes. some student fail because of either they left the collage or had an medical issue. previously the carriculam was old and was little bit irrelevent but this year the carriculam changed that decreased the load of studend and also made the couse more enjoyable and relavent.

Faculty:

Faculty is nice. You would find many helpful professors here. Mostly they are all alumni. There our many professors who would help you in your personal as well as academic problems too. I admired my basic electrical engineering ma'am in my second semester because of her intellect. She was friendly to us and listened to all our problems and understand us. However, there were some professors who would scold you for everything and not even teach properly in the first year. Mainly physics professors. They rush with the syllabus and don't provide enough relevant material for the semester examinations. There is 30 marks mid semester exam, 50 marks end semester exam, 20 marks teacher's (internal) assessment per semester. The exams are easy if you have studied nicely and listened to the classes. CGPA is absolute so there would be no competition among friends.

Which college is better for Aerospace Engineering, IIEST Shibpur or SRM University? (Considering everything - from Faculty to Placements)

Komal Yadav
Sourav RoyStudied at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur

IIEST Shibpur is a well-known institute in India. Although it has faced some challenges in recent years, it has been making progress. Aerospace Engineering is the newest department at IIEST, having been established in 2011 by branching out from the Mechanical Engineering Department. Despite being a small batch, the department has a lot of potential.

  • When it comes to faculty, IIEST has an edge over SRM. The Mechanical Department, in particular, is considered one of the premier departments at IIEST.
  • IIEST also has better laboratory and infrastructure facilities than SRM, which is important for students pursuing engineering degrees.
  • In terms of placements, both IIEST and SRM are not doing great. IIEST has the excuse of being a new player in the game, while SRM has had the department for a long time. However, IIEST does have slightly better placements than SRM.

It's important to note that ranking colleges based solely on placements is not always accurate. Research output is often a more important criterion to consider.


IIEST Shibpur has better faculty and facilities than SRM, and at a much lower cost. So, if you're looking for an Aerospace Engineering college, IIEST Shibpur is worth considering.

How is the faculty of IIEST’s CST department? Is it worth joining over Jadavpur’s IT or IIIT Allahabad/BITS Pilani’s ECE?

Sayani GargB.Tech Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering, Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology

The IT courses at IIIT Allahabad are top-notch unlike CSE at BITS, Pilani’s. As CSE and IT are different courses and since you say that college doesn't matter to you it comes down to choosing between the subjects. IIEST Shibpur is doing great too in its infrastructure; placements and alumni base. The CST department has done great in the field of placements with 90% student placements in IIEST Shibpur. The highest was about 48 LPA from DirectI and the average package was around 8 LPA.
