How do I choose between KGEC, JGEC and IEM Kolkata?

NS
Niharika Samaddar Posted On : February 17th, 2021
Studied at Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College (2011)

It all depends on the candidate’s decision. What may seem productive for him might fall flat for others.

Here pointing few specifications which might help you choose:

  • IEM is a Private engineering College whereas; KGEC and JGEC are government owned colleges.
  • Annual Tuition fees are far less for both the government colleges and IEM being a private institute holds higher fees and increases cost of living.
  • Being government owned colleges (KGEC, JGEC), the student from financially weaker section is subjected to stipend, half-fees and full fees consideration.
  • If we take a look at the campus location, IEM is situated in sector-V, in the crux of the IT revolution which began at Kolkata. Whereas, KGEC, JGEC have their own campus located outside of the main city.

IEM being a private institution is strict with its studies. But, being government colleges students can see little slack on education in KGEC and JGEC.

If campus recruitment is the sole criterion, then IEM stands out with a virtuous record. Whereas KGEC and JGEC in can see slack in core branches recruitment.

IEM being situated in the heart of the city’s IT sector, all the companies take interest to see the students from IEM. KGEC and JGEC located outside the main city.

If you compare KGEC with JGEC, KGEC is the way to go. KGEC has a better ratio of placements, infrastructure, facilities, and faculty than JGEC.

Choose KGEC if you want to study in any core department. Otherwise you can choose between JGEC and IEM for other departments. If you are looking for government jobs, KGEC is the one. Choose KGEC without hesitation. If you don’t get a chance to get into KGEC go for JGEC as both being government colleges gives less burden of fees and expenses.

Finally, it’s up to you to choose any one among the three engineering colleges. Based on the parameter, it drives your decision. My suggestion would be go for KGEC and if not then, JGEC over IEM.

How good is the EEE Department in IEM Kolkata ?

CR
Chandrakana Ray Posted On : February 19th, 2021
B.Tech Electronics and Communication Engineering, Institute of Engineering and Management (2018)

IEM Kolkata as a college is just focused on getting marks and secure jobs during campus placements rather than providing quality education to its students to get some knowledge. The students were told to sit in campus placements with UEM students which was considered to be a very dis-organized step taken by the college.

The environment inside the college is very bad and the curriculum for students is worse. My sister studied here and she mentioned how the students are only concerned about getting any kind of job during the campus placement so the institution can maintain their reputation resulting in more admissions in the coming years.

They don't care about improving the knowledge or skills of a student. The rules of the college are really difficult sometimes. Like if you're seen at the library you can be restricted for bunking class. Also the teachers are very rude and the students are scared of them.

These things leave a bad impression on the students about the department and the college too and ruin the name of the college. These problems should be solved immediately and not only in this college, it should be fixed in every college where such things happen.

After getting admission in this college, you will get many facilities and benefits from the college which will make you fall in love with this college and studying here will be fun and enjoyable. As the faculty is experienced and knowledgeable, learning new things and understanding new concepts will get much easier.

I'm in my last semester of graduation the results come in August, am I eligible for the mba program now? if not, then when should I apply?

PM
Priyanka Mukharjee Posted On : May 9th, 2022
studies at IIM Ahmedabad

Yes, you are eligible to apply for an MBA course. Technically, you need to have completed your graduation, to get admission to an MBA degree. But students in their final year of graduation can appear in MBA entrance examinations. If you are able to score a decent percentile in the entrance, you will get a provisional admission. Your admission will be final, once you complete your graduation with the required aggregate marks. Your provisional admission will be finalized once your graduation results are declared and you submit the relevant proofs. So, if you have a valid MBA entrance score, you can apply for an MBA program.
