IEM Kolkata faculty members add a human touch to teaching.
Placements: Though all the big names like EY, Deloitte, Amazon, and others do come for placements here, the packages offered at IEM Kolkata are quite modest. Around half the students are placed from our campus, as a mass placement session is organized by our college to make sure that the majority of students gets placed from the campus itself.
Infrastructure: It is a very small campus but equally effective, for sure. The administration block is where classes for our course take place, and the block is full of the highest facilities. One basketball court is all we have in the name of sports facilities, but we do have an indoor sports room. We have one canteen which is shared by the entire strength of the college.
Faculty: The touch which they provide while teaching is what has made me their the biggest fan. Not just their teaching skills and methods are good but they are quite helpful too. My camrradrie with them has been best as I was made the class crores and I enjoyed that role to the fullest.
Other: The hackathon organised at our college is highly competitive. It was one of the biggest fests that our college used to organize twice every year.

All-rounder college, according to my observation.
Placements: This college has a very good placement record. Companies like Wipro, Accenture, and Capgemini are the main recruiters at this college. The highest package is 12 LPA. The average package is 3.5 LPA. Besides this, there are also many internship opportunities in startups and MNCs.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available everywhere on the campus. There are dedicated labs for each department, which are well-maintained. Smart classroom facilities are also available. The library has more than 60,000 books. So, every student can gain knowledge.
Faculty: Frankly speaking, teachers are very helpful and friendly towards every student. In most ways, they help every student as much as they can. The course curriculum is also very relevant nowadays. Especially in computer science, AI is the most in-demand skill right now. Our curriculum also includes AI and ML.
Other: Frankly, I chose this course because I love mathematics. Coding is like an application of mathematics and problem-solving. We get a much bigger picture when we study computer science. We can see where the application of mathematics goes and how it solves problems. I also love creating projects. By building projects, my skills get refined day by day.

Other: I chose this course because I thought an MBA offered many job opportunities in the job market.

If you come here once, you won't want to leave.
Placements: 80% of students got placed. The highest salary package offered was 5 LPA. 100% of students got internships. Top recruiters included TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Flipkart, Bajaj, and Amazon. Roles included web development, Data analytics, software engineering, cybersecurity, and full-stack developer.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available, and labs are hi-tech with a nice setup. We have air conditioners in every room. Students need not use stairs as we have a lift. Good-quality food is available in the mess. Hostel rooms are also quite good. The college has a basketball ground and many more.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is very good. You can understand everything properly. If a student doesn't understand, they explain all the things again. The course curriculum is relevant, and it makes students industry-ready. Semester exams are quite tough. The pass percentage is 60%.
Other: I want to be a software engineer, so I chose this course. Everything is best when you love doing it. No need for improvement, as everything is already the best here. We celebrate many events on campus.

An okayish mid-level college.
Placements: Around 49% of students get placed. The highest package is 28 LPA at Amazon, though no one has cracked it. The average package is 6 LPA. Top recruiting companies include Tata, TCS, and Capgemini. Internships are mainly off-campus, and less than 15% are offered through the college. The top roles are Software Development Engineer and Full Stack Developer. There are some opportunities in core fields too.
Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi is poor. Labs are properly regulated, though there are fewer lab technicians and supervisors, so students are mainly on their own. The library is nice. There is no hostel, so students from far away are required to stay in nearby PGs or rented accommodation. The college canteen is nice, though.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful. They seem knowledgeable and are qualified enough. This course is 100% relevant, as it is a specialization in AI/ML, and I believe it is one of the booming industries now. The course is quite easy if studied properly. It is regulated by MAKAUT, a government institute.
Other: This course is in one of the most booming fields. Better extracurricular activities would be helpful. Events and fests are good. Any help regarding scholarships is provided.

A mixed college experience with scope for improvement.
Placements: I am in the beginning of my 4th year, and so far, the placement rate is less than 15%. I don't know how many of us will get placed by the end of college. I don't know about everyone, but in my stream, the highest package is around 8 LPA, and the lowest package is 3 LPA. TCS is the main mass recruiter. We hear rumours that TCS will come again at the beginning of the 8th semester. I don't know the exact percentage, but maybe around 20% of students get placed through their own efforts and not through campus placements. Cognizant is also one of the companies.
Infrastructure: We have a very small college campus. There is no hostel facility. However, the classrooms are slightly better, with AC and digital boards. Faculty and lab classes are also good. There is no hostel attached to our college, so there is no mess or canteen. This is probably because our college campus is located in the main city.
Faculty: Teachers are good and knowledgeable. However, the curriculum and time management seem very poor. On some days, we have 2–3 classes, while on other days, we have 7–8 classes. This creates an exhausting schedule for students. I have no words for the exam schedule. They conduct exams between holidays. For example, during Durga Puja, Diwali, and Chhath Puja, there are college days, and exams are scheduled on those days.
Other: I chose this course because I am interested in Computer Science and technology. The course covers different areas of Computer Science. It also provides practical lab experience. The college is located in a convenient area with good connectivity. I feel that more industry-oriented activities, better placement opportunities, & more extracurricular events can improve the overall student experience. The campus is small. The environment is generally manageable for students.
