Overall Rating
My experience in IIEST Shibpur is good. It is situated at the centre of Shibpur and very near to Kolkata. Our institute provides good placements and internship opportunities from 2nd year onwards by Google Amazon, Microsoft, and Infosys companies along with more research opportunities and facilities for PG and core branches. Our institute is mainly famous our research opportunities and facilities our institute has PG also.
 

Academics Rating
In IIEST Shibpur, Information Technology branch is too good, having a good placement record and internships. JEE Main is the entrance exam to this institute by getting a good percentile and rank. The professors here are too good as they are highly educated and experienced. We have to study a head for the semester exam as they seem to be tougher than other institutes and marking is too strict. We will have one mid exam and then one semester exam.
The fee structure is same and affordable. Per year, we have to pay 1 Lakh. There is 100% fee reimbursement for special category students.
 

Faculty Rating
The faculty in our institute is too good. Every professor is highly educated and experienced. Their teaching style is also good. They teach mostly by presentations. The faculty is friendly. They are good and provide some research opportunities.
 

Placement Rating
Our institute provides good placements and internship opportunities from 2nd year onwards so that’s the reason for the people who are having a good placement and more good companies like Microsoft, Accenture, Google, Amazon give internships to us

Our campus infrastructure is good. We have a historical clock tower and a guesthouse for parents where they can stay in institute. We have 5 canteens and more classrooms. We have a 7 storied building and main academic building and we have many trees in our institute. Campus sized of this institute is around 117 acres.
