The infrastructure is a little old but all of the oldest colleges have this problem. West Bengal has beautiful traditions and humble people. The placememt stats of the college are good, minimum being 86% for mme or bt, which are available in detail on the college's website. The admission process is hassle free and done through JOSAA only, after the JEE Advanced result.

It is a fact that most people apply for CS then ECE and so on, based on there rank. I had an option between biotech engineering, MSc in chemistry integrated program, and metallurgical engineering in nitdgp. I chose mme as i liked it more. The gender ratio is 20% girls in almost all courses with minor variation. The faculty are mostly researchers who have done there PhD from IITs. There are 3 exams every semester, and taken in a very organized manner, with absolute marking pattern, and are easy to pass with good knowledge in the subject.
