I choose this course as I like the trade of Electrical Engineering. the faculty-student ratio is good and the students get their own mentors which is a very good thing. the faculty members are highly qualified in their respective fields and their teaching skills are very good. the exams are quite difficult to pass but if you study well then it will be okay the semester occurs every 6months and in between sets there are 2mid terms each sem.
You should pass Class 12 with science or lateral entry also available for that you need to pass polytechnic. no, the admission is basically via wbjee and Jee mains. I dont think there is any room for improvement in the admission procedure.

The information can be found on the official sites of the respective exams.
Read Full ReviewI chose Engineering because: It has been my passion to pursue this course. Codes are something that I actually understand. Engineering gives a brief knowledge of how to apply whatever we've learned to date. The Quality of Education is wonderful. The teachers are available 24/7 to help you whenever you need them. Teachers are willing to personally teach the students during college hours for any session or class that they miss.
My admission personally took place via the WBJEE examinations. The exam is a tough one but with the proper preparation, it can be easily cracked. I was not from any Reservations. I belong to the General category. In IEM you get the option to upgrade your stream if you score a high enough SGPA. Like I did. I upgraded from CSE(IoT) to CSE(AIML) owing to my 9+ SGPA.

From the seventh semester onwards company starts visiting for full-time roles as well. Companies like Oracle, eQTechnologic, Accenture, Deloitte, PwC, and IBM have visited our campus so far. Accenture has offered 150 students for full-time roles. The Highest package offered is from Oracle around 19LPA for my Batch. The average that I know would be around 5LPA.
Eligibility: Have completed class 12th. Basically to be admitted to the college one has to take an entrance examination that is conducted at the state level known as WBJEE. If you get a good rank then only you can be admitted to this college. During my time the exam was conducted in February.
Read Full ReviewCampus placements are offered around the 6th semester onwards. TCS, Wipro, IBM, Oracle and a lot of reputed companies visit the campus for recruitment and 100% placement is not a myth as our curriculum is designed to include placement and competitive-oriented studies from the 1st semester itself. The average package tends to touch 5lacs per annum and the highest goes up to 82 lacs per annum for a software engineer at Google London. Personally, I am planning to get an MS after my B Tech degree.
I took admission via my WBJEE rank of 9.3k and got admitted to the Electronics and Telecommunication course in the mop-up round. In 2nd year I changed my stream to CSE-AI on the basis of my first year academic performance. The admission process takes place through the WBJEE counselling portal and is not hectic at all. Now there is also an exam conducted by IEM called IEMJEE for admission.
