What College of Engineering and Management, Kolaghat does

College of Engineering and Management, Kolaghat (CEMK) is a government-supported engineering college established in September 1998 under the aegis of Vidyasagar Society for Integrated Learning (VSIL), operating under the Department of Power, Government of West Bengal. It is located on a 32-acre WiFi-enabled green campus inside the Kolaghat Thermal Power Plant (KTPP) township in Purba Medinipur. The institution is approved by AICTE and affiliated to Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology (MAKAUT), with NBA accreditation held by the CSE (since 2017, renewed 2025-2028), ECE, and EE departments.

The college delivers four-year B.Tech programs across six disciplines: Computer Science & Engineering (intake 240), CSE in AI & ML (intake 120), Electronics & Communication Engineering (intake 60), Electrical Engineering (intake 60), Mechanical Engineering (intake 30), and Information Technology (intake 60), plus a postgraduate program in Mechatronics. Technical infrastructure includes high-end Linux PCs on Gbps Ethernet, a 350 Mbps leased internet link, specialized labs for coding, robotics, and 3D printing, an open-access library, a language laboratory, and an R&D Cell. A Faculty Development Program (ICTEA-2025) covering Generative AI, Deep Learning, Quantum Computing, Blockchain and AI for Network Security drew 1,540 participants from 20 Indian states and 3 countries.

Revenue is generated primarily through B.Tech tuition fees billed annually, supplemented by faculty development program revenue and a placement services function that channels graduates into a recurring roster of enterprise recruiters including TCS, Cognizant, Infosys, Wipro, Amazon, IBM, and L&T. Admissions are sourced almost entirely through West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination (WBJEE) centralized counselling plus decentralized institutional and lateral-entry rounds, with Tuition Fee Waiver seats reserved for economically weaker students. The Training and Placement Office also runs CSR-backed employability pipelines with TCS (Youth Employment Program) and Cognizant (Impact Hiring).
