Good education, good future, good life, good end.

Placements: The course was sufficient, but the placements were completely disappointing. Students could learn well, but university did not provide proper placement opportunities. Most students had to try off-campus to get jobs. However, having a UG certificate from UEM increased the chances of clearing interviews.

Average UEM student college experience. Everything is of poor quality except the placements.

Placements: In MCA in 2025, almost 58% of students were placed from UEM. Top recruiting companies: TCS, Capgemini, LTI, Mindtree, Cognizant, Wipro, Infosys, PWC, and Genpact.

This university is so disciplined.

Placements: As a student of UEM Kolkata, I feel the course structure is industry-focused and updated. The placement package is decent. The highest is 70 LPA and the average is 5-6 LPA. The internship opportunities are great, which give exposure that helps us to gain corporate experience.

Good placement records, but not student-friendly.

Placements: We are currently 2nd year students. But let me tell you, according to the placement records of previous years. The placement ratio is pretty good. Though the exact number is not known, we often find a lot of students from various departments getting an on-campus offer. Very few of them have also received off-campus offers from companies like Amazon and Microsoft. The college's placement drives are for roles like TCS Digital, Prime, and Ninja or Cognizant roles.
