Heritage Institute of Technology East Calcutta Township Kolkata Answered Questions

HIT or Heritage Institute of Technology is one of top private colleges in West Bengal. You need to appear for WBJEE or JEE - Mains to get into this college. Only 10% seats are filled through JEE-Mains. It's easier to get into the college through WBJEE. CSE (Computer Science Engineering) is one the top branches here in Heritage. If we look at the past years cutoff's, it is seen that they have been changing. In Year 2016, the closing rank was around 3800 for CSE. In Year 2017, it was around 4800 and above.

If I talk about the maximum rank, it depends on two things. First, category and branch. If I talk about the general category opening and closing rank for the year 2017, the opening rank for CS was 699 and closing(maximum) rank was 5030. Apart from this, opening rank for ECE was 1531 and closing(maximum) rank was 8157.

Heritage Institute of Technology situated in Kolkata is a private institute taking the students for engineering stream.
Though the college is not so much remarkable and up to the mark when it comes to infrastructure but is improving itself and hence can be considered as okay.
Now, coming to the placement stats, the average placement from here is around 3 to 4 lakh and highest package offered is from Microsoft which is around 16 lakhs.
Although, the above placement data is from CSE, ECE, IT, etc.
Also, frankly speaking, the college do not have a good placement record other than these three branch though, many IT based companies visit for mass recruitment such as TCS, Infosys as well as Wipro.
Also, the faculty members are good, but not up to the level to meet the requirements of industry as well as modern world.
So, in all, the college is good for the core branches only, and should not, be preferred for distance education. Although, students from West Bengal can have it as their last option but for the three mentioned branches.
Thank you. Hope it helped.

Talking about the Electronics and Instrumentation Engineering in Heritage Institute of Technology, the total students in this branch are about 60. Companies like Tata Consultancy Services (TCS ), Wipro, Infosys, etc., recruit students and that too in mass. The average placement is 3.75-4.00 LPA. Some CS students get placements for 8-10 LPA as well. One got a package of 22 LPA last year.
Students from Applied Electronics and Instrumentation (AEI) branch also get placements in these IT companies. But the core companies for AEI that visit the campus are very few. If we talk about the faculty members here, they are quite good. Some are Ph.D holders and some have the experience of more than 18 years.
To get placed in core companies, the students too need to work hard. Since, HITK is a private college, it is obvious that not many companies will visit. Apart from this, students also go for higher studies. A lot of students prepare for GATE. Some go for civil services. Some look up for IES (Indian Engineering Services).
Moreover, this is the scenario out here in Heritage Institute of Technology (HITK). I am providing two links below. Go through it and I hope this helps you.
