UEM Kolkata B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering: Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

The overall fee structure in UEM Kolkata keeps changing. But, there are no major modifications to it over the last few years. 

• For the 2016-20 batches, the fee per semester was Rs. 60,000. Therefore, the total fee would be Rs. 1.2 Lakhs annual fees.
• During admission, you will need to pay an additional admission fee of Rs. 12,000. So, the first-semester fee is Rs. 72,000 combined together, which the students need to pay before their admission to the institute.
• There is an examination fee of Rs. 1000, which needs to be paid before semester exams. For the first semester, the exam fee is Rs. 1400.
• UEM organizes several technical and professional workshops, and almost all of them are paid. The fee for such workshops varies from Rs. 500-1500, depending on the type and duration of the workshop. But, these are entirely optional. The management will not force you to participate. 
• Previously, the 2015-19 batches had a semester fee of Rs. 37,000, and so Rs. 74,000 annually. All other fees, i.e.-exam fees, workshop fees, etc, were the same for those batches too.

For more classified details regarding the present fee structure, you can contact the IEM/UEM group via phone calls. The numbers are available on their website.

One of my cousins is studying CSE at UEM University so I can give you a scenario of UEM University.

Here are a few of the things about UEM Kolkata.

1. The faculties of UEM Kolkata are good and they also help students.
2. You will have all the academic exposure here as lots of conferences keep happening at UEM. The academic design of UEM is also good. But semesters are not easy, you have to study hard.
3. UEM seniors are good. Few of them have created video games for android and built non-framework cars. UEM also started a group where students can build their own cars.

In the table below take a look at the placement scenario of both institutes.

UEM Kolkata is a good college if you want to learn every aspect of engineering and gain knowledge. If you want to consider other colleges, then you can go for - IEM, Heritage, Techno India, St. Thomas, Narula Institute of Technology, and B.P. Poddar.

I have a few friends at the Haldia Institute of Technology and based on what I heard from them, I will suggest you to look for other options. Having a college campus in Kolkata will be advantageous for you.

You can get IT in Techno India salt-lake main campus. If you don’t get Techno you can go for CSE in B.P. Poddar, RCC or St. Thomas, or any other college. Follow previous year trends of opening and closing ranks of the college and make a choice accordingly.

Choosing the University of Engineering and Management (UEM), Kolkata can be risky because it is newly established. Even though it is under the banner of IEM, you can’t be certain about placements. Going by the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered at the institute is 4 LPA.

In your first year, you have to study all the department subjects and plan the books accordingly. UEM Kolkata is under MAKAUT (WBUT) curriculum so it follows the given curriculum and the books accordingly. Some of the common books are as follows:

1. Engineering Mathematics by Das & Pal Vol 1 (especially for 1st semester) and the Vol 2 (for 2nd semester)
2. Let us C by Yashwant Kanetkar (Programming book for C)
3. Basic Electrical and Engineering books (BEEE lab and theory for both semesters)
4. Data Structures ( Data Science book for data management) by Reema Thareja
5. Engineering Mechanics and Fluid Mechanics for 1st and 2nd semester respectively.
6. Physical Chemistry books issued by the department itself.
7. Python Language and basics

It’s better to have some other language books yourself.
