Heritage would be far better for your career than B.P.Poddar, in terms of educational facilities and campus infrastructure. The environment is good and the members of the faculty are helpful and nice. 

I have visited both of these colleges and am familiar with them. If you want to have a fantastic college experience, Heritage would prove to be the best choice for you.

It could be a bit pricey if you use Management Quota. However, HIT offers good placement for CSE. In the recent placement drive, the average CTC offered at the institute was 4 LPA and the highest was 16 LPA. 

Both the Heritage Institute of Technology and BP Poddar Institute of Management and Technology are technical colleges affiliated to the Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology (MAKAUT), West Bengal. 

Before deciding which is better, let us first understand each college’s pros and cons.

Pros

Heritage Institute of Technology 

• Huge campus, serene environment, great infrastructure, great area for hangouts
• Good faculty and plenty of options to choose your specialization

• Ragging is completely absent with some minor “intro” or some small tasks

Cons

Heritage Institute of Technology

• The location is the biggest problem as you will not find any public transport nearby. You will have to walk miles to get a small cigarette shop. And forget about dining options and restaurants nearby.

BP Poddar Institute of Management and Technology

• The faculty are decent but you will need the help of lab assistants more often than the professors
• Fests and other celebrations are not as prevalent as other campuses
• The canteen is very small
• Infrastructure is very limited with no playground, no auditorium, and no grand construction

Both are equally good colleges and ultimately you will be getting the certificate from the same university with almost the same level of teaching. You will get around a 15% chance of getting a job in a core sector company. So decide for yourself what you want looking at the pros and cons of both the colleges.
