As of now, IIEST has recently become an institute which is part of the INI, yet it somehow has not procured enough time to evolve as an Institute of National Importance. It is in fact known to be a very well-reputed institute, however, IIEST is yet lesser heard of outside West Bengal.

If compared on the basis of placements, it does not occupy the space which most of the IITs and NITs have covered, such as Warangal, Surathkal, Tiruchi, Allahabad, Nagpur, Delhi, Mumbai, and several others, but IIEST still has established in factors concerning placements in the past years.

Although, certain years have seen numerous students getting placed in larger percentages by different companies. Having said that, the highest package seized was by the Computer science department with 32 LPA by a student working in Google now.

This time forward, it is now an individual’s responsibility to decide whether or not it is worth joining a 5 year course. You should sort your priorities in the first place, deciding if you want to perform in either Research or the Job sector. If you end up opting for Research, then the only logical option seconding IITs and IISc, is IIEST. You can stay assured of not repenting your period of time in the 5 year course you are required to do, once you choose research.

However, if you are wondering about moving to the job sector, then it probably would be better to join an institute that offers students a 4 year course. All things considered, there is an added advantage of joining a 4 years course which is that if you wish to pursue M.Tech, you will have better options in your hand, like the U.S., by preparing to sit in exams such as GATE or GRE, with a good rank whatsoever. This can stand as an advantage if you are planning to enroll in IIEST, because it is only then that your extra 1 year would definitely not be wasted.

Although, lastly, it largely is your personal decision whether or not IIEST is worth to put your hands on.

Yes IIEST Shibpur wants to give the choice of doing B.Tech and M.tech degrees from two different institutes. As most of the students opt for M.tech degrees after passing out from this college. If you have cleared GATE then you are also eligible for the scholarship program. After completing six semesters the students are asked about their choices for an M.Tech degree.

The college has signed an MOU with University of California Irvine in which the universities will be providing dual degree programs to the students. In this the students will have to complete a total 10 semesters in which 8 semesters from IIEST and 2 semesters from University of California. This will be a five year integrated program. The students who would like to continue with 9th and 10th semesters will be given a choice by the university to do a masters program from the universities that are tied up with IIEST Shibpur. You will also get the chance to do projects at reputed places. In any case the college will provide an opportunity to do at least one semester internship as a part of a master's project in any industry. The college is also trying an MOU with IITs and universities abroad for a five year integrated program.

Hostels in NIT C for the PG students are not good. Students are allotted to the Professor's Apartment in their first tear. 

• The apartment consists of a flat which has 3 rooms, kitchen and 1 hall i.e. equivalent to a 3 BHK flat. But the number of students in each flat depends on the number of rooms each flat possesses. 
• Along with that, some students get the golden opportunity of residing in halls or even in the kitchens. 
• The toilets according to the number of students are always less and then there is always a queue outside the bathroom gate in the morning. There are a total of 14 to 16 students per flat. 
• The journey from apartments to college is like going on a trek. Now they have started a bus service.

This was the scenario of the first year and for the second year students, the scenario is a bit different. The second-year students are mostly accommodated in the MBA hostels which have toilets attached with the rooms but are far from the previous apartments where you were living in the first year. 

Wi-Fi is available on the campus and works well for the new buildings and hostels. At the time of joining they will tell you that the new hostels are under construction and will be ready to move soon. 

Please take a note that if possible go for the kitchen as that will be the only single room accommodation available for you as a PG student in NIT Calicut.

Basically, M.Tech in process control and instrumentation is considered a multi-disciplinary course. According to some of my friends studying at NIT Trichy, a student gets the privilege to study varied subjects headed by different faculties like ICE and chemical departments. 

• Earlier the degree of the course was provided by the chemical department but now it has been shifted to ICE. 
• Usually, it has been seen that this branch seems a bit difficult to students as they need to study different subjects. 
• The difficulty arises when chemical students need to study electrical branches or vice-versa. 
• Coming to the placements, if you have a desire to get a decent job after the two years of your program, then NIT is the best place. 
• Starting from the second semester the placement committee develops certain skills that can help you immensely during the final placements. 

 According to the recent placement report, the following data can be tabulated as given below:

Lastly, we can conclude that if you are aspiring to pursue M.Tech in process control and instrumentation, then NIT Trichy is the best place where you can grow along with your holistic development, and get an opportunity to be placed in one of the most prestigious companies.
