Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] (Electronics & Communication Engineering) From HIT Kolkata, Kolkata

Yes, you will be able to build up your profile appropriately at Heritage Institute of Technology. If you are interested in Antenna Theory and Microelectronics then, this could be a precious opportunity for you as they have their own IEE EDS Chapter. 

Most of the lecturers are quite disciplined about organizing a research paper for students and if you’ll be a bit serious about your course then there are high chances of your paper being published. 

Moreover, there were many seniors of my friend who gone abroad and some made up to Pen State. 

The department of Electronics and Communication Engineering at Heritage Institute of Technology is apparently quite good. Here are some significant pointers to offer insight about the same,

• The faculty members of Heritage Institute of Technology are extremely generous and insightful.
• The senior faculty members are Ph.D holders with experience of 30 years.
• Students, generally after completing their course period, go on to pursue M.S from several foreign universities.
• In addition, HIT Kolkata offers opportunities for summer internships at NJIT, New Jersey.
• Most of the top IT MNCs’ visit the campus for on-campus placements, such as Bosch, Sankalp Electronics, and various others.
• Also, the campus is entirely WiFi enabled as well.

Thus, the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering is one of the best to pursue in the institute.

Seeing your interest in both branches, IIEST has a wide scope of diverse cultures and you will find many students from all over the nation. 

IIEST Shibpur offers great exposure in terms of academics as well as extra-curricular activities along with the interactive clubs and fun happening fests. It comes under the Government of India and is one of the NIT. 

However, Aerospace Engineering is not a trending branch anymore and it was in the limelight a decade ago. To open up more opportunities, you will be required to pursue a Master’s or prepare for the competitive exams to get a decent job. 

ECE at Heritage Institute is more prominent but being a private college, it is not up to the mark as compared to Aerospace Engineering. The placement opportunities at HIT are not good. Therefore, all you can do is to opt for IIEST, get a decent aggregate, and change the branch from Aerospace to ECE in the second year.

Yes, they are enough but only if you do not miss a single class, and are very serious about every assignment and internal mark.

Your professors and seniors would definitely suggest you the reference books and you should their advice. Everything is not about marks. You should have surplus knowledge about your subjects which brings completeness into the course. 

Due to time limitations, everything cannot be taught in the class. Also, engineering is beyond your semester syllabus.
