The Bengal Engineering College (BEC) Shibpur has a rich legacy of its own. It was unfortunate that BEC opted for the IIEST tag in 2014.

Becoming an IIT won’t be the best for IIEST Shibpur. The internal governance of IITs is completely different. Becoming one of them will be a great blow to the autonomy of IIEST. This autonomy was already compromised when the college acquired the IIEST tag.

But the chances of IIEST becoming an IIT are very faint. Bengal already has an IIT of its own, and the chances of another institute acquiring this status are negligible at present.
