Hi Pankaj,
The Training and Placement Unit of the Institute is responsible for providing world class job opportunities to the undergraduate and postgraduate students after graduation for suitable jobs in the industry and various private and public sector organizations.
No institute can guarantee you placements. It's just purely based on how you utilize your abilities and skills at the right time. I would suggest you to contact the training and placement department personally for accurate numbers.
Salary is a function of various factors - i.e. (i) the institute where you have completed your B.Tech + M.Tech. e.g. a graduate from a top institute will command a higher salary. (ii) Your work experience - organization and type of work profile (iii) city - a metropolitan city will have higher salaries as compared to smaller cities and towns. (iv) Your current organization - i.e. where you will be joining - an MNC usually has higher salaries as compared to other organizations. (v) Your work profile i.e. Manager/ AVP, etc. Thus one cannot allocate a figure.
Hope this information helps. Please feel free to revert.
Wish you luck.

Hi, do some serious thinking first. You have already paid the fees for 1st year of engineering. The conditions of faculty and placements is like this only in many private engineering colleges. It may not be a good decision to change engineering college as you may face the same problem there also. Hence, I will advise you to continue. The placement situation is also same everywhere as so many software graduates like BE, BTech, BSc ( IT and CS ), MCA are passing out every year. So, focus on completing the engineering and try to maintain first class throughout. Do not argue with any faculty or placement cell as it may affect your internal marks, viva and project marks. Join coaching class for your engineering subjects. If you are still confused then approach a professional career counselor in your city. Later on you can apply for jobs in companies from outside also.

Hi, this is really nice to know that someone is planning to do such a kind of work. First thing to keep in mind is that you cannot do it alone. You need to connect with like minded people of your age group in Kolkata who are thinking on the same lines as this is a costly and responsible work. Visit old age homes in Kolkata run by government NGO's and other social welfare organizations. Start a campaign on social networking websites like facebook, twitter, linkedin. Make and create groups on whatsapp. Visit companies and prepare a questionnaire to take feedback and opinions from people. Do not forget one thing money to manage it. There are also hell lot of paperwork involved. So, take legal advise also from a reputed law firm. Wish you all the best and good luck for this initiative. Also, be prepared to face opposition, criticism from your friends, family and relatives of elders whom you will be catering. Be confident and go ahead.
