    I am absolutely satisfied with fees and teachers. It has a good international ranking.
    Placements: Not more but a few like 20% of students from our department got placed in well-reputed companies like Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), Wipro, Cognizant, Accenture, and HSBC. Many students went for higher studies, i.e., M.Teach. Internships are similar to placement ones. We get internships in TCS, Wipro, Cognizant, Cipla (for some science courses), and in some local startups or research labs for science/PG students.
    Infrastructure: The library can be considered as the best. It has many books on technology, web development, hacking, and full-stack, but it is missing any topic. Wi-Fi is available. The canteen is also available. All these are constructed in modern designs and are well-maintained. Food is also good for our health. We consider having food from the canteen rather than outside.
    Faculty: Faculty members are among the best. They have experience of more than 10-13 years. Even a few of them have been faculty members of IITs. They are polite too. It does not make us industry-ready, but it gives us a lot of free self-time to become industry-ready. From 2nd year, we will have almost 3 classes a week, with a suitable syllabus, and rest time for self-development.

    It has a good return on investment.
    Placements: Of students who applied for placements almost 90% of them got selected. The top companies are TCS, PwC, and Accenture. Most students opt for higher studies and have good one-digit or two-digit ranks from almost all departments. We also find many great alumni of this college.
    Infrastructure: Hostels are good, and ragging is rare, but it's far away from the tech campus. Other campuses are fine. Hostels are limited. But they have a lot of fun in hostels. The food is nice and it's at least better than the nearby PGs. The only problem is the distance between our house from the college and the hostel location is large. Many students should opt for PGs due to their inability.
    Faculty: Teachers are qualified. The course curriculum is tough but helpful for higher studies. Exams are tough, too, but I think it's good as they resulted in so many one-digit and two-digit rankers for GATE from almost all departments. In IT, we have a lot of free time to prepare for almost everything because it is a chill branch.
    Other: I chose this course as the value for money is too good. Like the average package ranges from 7-8 LPA. The fee for four years is Rs. 40,000. It is the best college we can get after Jadavpur University. I want to pursue higher studies so the success rate of this college is good, so I am here.

    Not happy with the placements and faculty, otherwise, it was a beautiful stay in my college.
    Placements: Out of 40 students, 24 students were placed. The companies that came are ITC, Haldia Petrochemical, Berger Paints, and Woods. The average package is 3.6 LPA. Usually, the jobs were in process engineering or as onsite engineers. Most students got internships in IOCL, IFFCO, Berger Paints, and HPCL.
    Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is not available on the campus. Labs are fully equipped with equipment, and classrooms have AC and projectors. The library has every book and journal that is available. Hostels are available, and canteen food is also okay and cheap. Medical facilities are available and free of cost for students.
    Faculty: Teachers are mostly overqualified and usually arrogant. The teaching quality is okay but mostly based on notes. The curriculum is a bit outdated and not on par with current industry knowledge. Semester exams are usually easy, and the pass percentage is approximately 75%. The students are usually industry-ready as they are geniuses and not due to faculty.
    Other: I chose this course and college as it was near my home and also I wanted to study chemical engineering. The curriculum and placement should be better. There is no social life, and no fests or events are held currently.

    This is one of the best colleges in Kolkata, where you can study with quality.
    Placements: For my department, we have an average of 8 LPA as Software Engineers or sometimes as Web Developers. We have other departments as well with great placements, and more than that, people here are much more interested in going abroad for higher education. Mostly, students from OOE go to Germany for higher studies from here.
    Infrastructure: The food quality in the hostel is just amazing. We have a good menu which is decided by students themselves. It’s we who decide the food varieties, the food quality, and the food menu. Besides that, we also have a fest during Ramadan organized by one of our hostels, where we go for Iftar. There is 24x7 electricity and a good amount of Wi-Fi, and we are surrounded by good seniors. We also have always been helpful. We also have laboratories here, including a Chemistry lab, an Electrical and Electronics lab, a Physics lab, and a Computer lab with more than 50 computers.
    Faculty: Faculty is very helpful. They never deny our requests. They are all highly qualified and intelligent. Talking about the curriculum, not many engineering colleges in India create industry-ready students, but I do see something different after reaching college. It is true that our syllabus doesn’t have the things it should create students are industry-ready. But they do support and help you wherever possible. Whether you want to participate in a hackathon or just want to learn DSA, faculty, and seniors are always there to help.
    Other: Since it's just 8–10 years of the B.Tech program at Calcutta University, we don't have a very strong Alumni network. But we have departmental fests every year, and many clubs, including the Photography and Film Club, which conduct different events regularly. We also have a Debate Club affiliated with IEEE. The engineering program at Calcutta University is divided into three campuses, which makes each campus more breathable and less crowded. We have Salt Lake Campus for CSE, IT, and OOE. Ballygunge Science College for JFT and the rest of the programs like ECE, CT, PST, IE, and CE are held in Rajabazar Science College.

    Placements: Optics and Optoelectronics engineering is such a unique course which could help you secure good internship opportunities in organizations like ISRO, DRDO, CSIR, etc. and good placement offers at Paras Defence and Space Pvt. Ltd., Tejas Network, etc. It also provides higher education opportunities abroad India.
    Infrastructure: The course is a combination of Electronics, Laser Physics, Fiber Optics, Classical Optics, Digital Image Processing, Non-linear Optics, illumination, etc. The labs are all equipped with all sorts of experiential setup and instruments, suitable for the course.
    Faculty: The faculty members are more than just a teacher. They are recognized worldwide and they'll help you in every problem. Their strong recommendations are all that matters the most for studying abroad. Two semester exams are conducted each year, which follows a mid-sem exam.

    Decent infrastructure with good placements.
    Placements: The placements are good, with most students securing a job in the 3rd year itself. Few opt for higher studies, while 90% of students get placed. The highest on-campus placement is 25 LPA, with 5–6 LPA as the average package for the IT department.
    Infrastructure: The campus is very small with limited walking space, however, the infrastructure is good with well-equipped labs and a great library. The classrooms are clean and air-conditioned. It is a 5-floor building with a lift, and water purifiers are present on each floor. Cleanliness is maintained very well.
    Faculty: Most teachers are qualified and knowledgeable, but only a few of them are actually helpful. The curriculum is relevant to the industry. Two exams are held each semester, excluding the practicals. The exams are moderately hard, with 35% as the passing mark.
    Other: There are hardly any sports tournaments held, and the connectivity to the campus is not good.
