Campus placements are not offered in our department as the college is new, However, we hope that the number of placements will increase as the college gets some reputation.

Absolutely mesmerized by the beauty of the college area, the faculty, and everything in college.
Placements: About 80% of the students of the department are being placed in the course, and the highest package leads to around 10 LPA and the lowest is around 2 LPA. Companies such as Wipro, L&T, Amazon, and Flipkart are mainly the top recruitment companies. 100 percent internships are being given. Roles like HR and software engineer are being mainly given.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is quite well maintained. CCTVs are installed, Wi-Fi has proper high internet, and classrooms are well maintained with chairs, tables, benches, and smart boards with projectors. The library is also well maintained, and the hostel is also maintained, the food is also properly cooked and proper health charts are being maintained.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, they tend to help by giving notes and everything. This course curriculum is relevant. It makes the students industry-ready. Semester exams are a bit of trouble, but that's what every student thinks; otherwise, the papers set are easy to answer.

CGEC review by 2024 batch (CSE).
Placements: The college is very poor if you consider on-campus placement. In 2024, not a single company visited our campus. But many students get placed off-campus. The highest package in our batch was 9 LPA, and the average was 3-4 LPA. 10-15 students got off-campus placement out of 62 students.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college was not so good because it's a new college. An efficient amount of classrooms are there. There is only one library, but there are no relevant books in that. The canteen is present on campus but has been close since 2-3 years.
Faculty: Faculty is average. The course curriculum is outdated and needs improvement according to recent technology. There are 4 CA exams in which you can score easily and a final semester exam. You can easily get good marks in these semester exams if you study well for 7 days before the exam.

Review of Coochbehar Government Engineering College.
Placements: The placement scenario in this college is very average, especially in the civil engineering branch. The mechanical or CSE branch students get good placements. So if we want to get admission to these branches then students are welcome. L&T and other MNC companies visit this college for placements.
Infrastructure: Hostels are very bad, and we can get a hostel when we are in the 3rd year. The infrastructure is very bad. On rainy days, water comes into the classroom. There is a lift in this college but I did not see to use of it. Maybe, they do not want to risk their life.
Faculty: Very difficult questions are asked in the semester. So we have to start our semester preparation from the beginning. If we are planning to get admission to this college then we must get a PW, Unacademy, or other coaching, unless we will fail in exams. Teachers are very good. But some of them do not give good CA marks.

Faculty: Teachers are so helpful in my college. They help us in making assignments and projects he will give us assignments and give us very good marks in IA and CA at difficult levels of the semester but with the support of teachers, we will make it easy.

Average faculty members, Placements are below average, lacking improvements.
Placements: Placements vary every year. Like 20-30% of Core branches (including mine: EE) get placed on-campus, and the rest of the Non-Core branches get around 40-45% from on-campus placements. Top recruiting companies for Core are L&T, TEECL, offering Graduate Engineer Trainee roles. The highest package in Core is around 6-7 LPA, and the lowest is around 3 LPA. Most students in Core go for training from every Core branch; rarely do they go for internships in companies like TATA Power. The top role in my course is only: GET (Graduate Engineer Trainee).
Infrastructure: There is Wi-Fi throughout the whole campus. Labs are average, and classrooms are well-equipped with infrastructure (like projectors, boards). A digital library is available, and there's much space in the library building. Hostels for girls are available from the first year, but for boys, they are available from the 4th year only. The canteen has not been open for the last 3 years due to internal issues. Hostel mess food is average, and no medical facilities are available. There are 2 big open grounds for sports and gaming.
Faculty: Most skilled teachers are in Non-Core branches (ECE, CSE). All of the faculty members either have Ph.D. degrees or graduated from IITs or NITs. Teaching varies from teacher to teacher. The course curriculum is relevant, but it depends on the job role you are looking for, and yes, it does not make students industry-ready. You have to work for yourself; don't rely on the college teachers. Semester exams are managed by the university board: MAKAUT. The difficulty level is 3.5/5. The pass percentage is 40%.
Other: I chose Electrical because I wanted to study it from childhood, and the best thing about Electrical is that one has to study most of the engineering subjects, so one can be prepared to switch between core and non-core easily. To improve my course, they should add more practical classes and a proper PC setup for core software testing. Events are like: Saraswati Puja, Annual Tech cum cultural fest - Esperenza, Freshers welcome - Croeso, etc. The campus crowd is minimal, being near a village. Connectivity with the main road is good, and the surroundings look beautiful being on the bank of the Torsha River. Scholarships like OASIS, SVMCM are available if you're eligible. Extracurricular activities are generally done by the clubs of the college (like music, quiz, sports, etc. clubs) and units like NSS, where both teachers and students contribute.

B.E./B.Tech is the most sought after cours  at CGEC because it covers all the solid core branches. With experienced faculty and decent placements, it's basically a full package especially if you're serious about engineering.

It all begins with submitting either an application for WBJEE or JEE Main, depending on which exam you chose to take. Next, take the exams; when results are released, follow it up with registration for centralized counseling (e-counseling portal for WBJEE or JoSAA, for JEE Main). During filling out
