On the other hand, the varsity decided to launch these courses due to the poor enrolment of students in B.Tech courses. The demand for engineering courses in West Bengal has declined over the years due to fewer employment opportunities. Many students prefer to go outside of the state for pursuing engineering courses and search for employment. Therefore, the varsity has come up with more industry relevant courses to attract more students take up higher studies in the state. The varsity also wants to improve the employability of the students.
