I studied at MCKV Institute of Engineering for 4 years and completed B.Tech in IT. The institute is located in Liluah, which is in Howrah district of West Bengal, very close to the city of Kolkata. I secured a decent All India Rank in AIEEE and after a round of counselling, joined the institute. I used to commute everyday from my home in central Kolkata.
Location: The location is something to crib about. It stands in the midst of hustling-bustling crowd of Liluah which wears a blanket of dust through out the day.
Faculty: Throughout 4 years, I never came across a faculty of high repute. All of them were ordinary and preferred speaking Bengali.
Infrastructure: The college had a basketball court, and that was used for cricket, football, annual festivals and all other functions. Some of the systems in computer lab did not function most of the time.
Library: The library was well equipped but had a strict policy. A fine of Rs 10 per day was exercised if you fail to return the book within specified date. No excuses were entertained.
Placement: The college failed to meet the expectation of most of the aspirants. it boasted of 100% placement but was able to place only 50% by the end of our season. Most of the students did end up getting a job but after searching on their own.
Alumni: The college doesn't really keep a track of alumni base sincerely. Alumni relationship is key to the growth of any institute and plays a very important role in building a name for the institute.
All in all, it is okay only if you are looking to get a degree and have a bit of fun. Not recommended for someone who really wants to learn.
