    Placements

    in our college the placements are very good overall but this year for cs and IT students the placements are very bad.last year 90% students are placed.the highest salary package is 62 lakhs. the average salary was 6 lakhs per annuam.

    Value for Money

    per year you have to pay 18000 rupees to our college for course fees but for hostel fees you have to pay 32000 per year.for my point of view the college is very high for government college.any others government college's fees is not as high also the hostel fees is very high.for a middle class student is not possible to pay huge amount to a government college

    A Good Engineering College Going Down

    College Infrastructure

    This college use to have one of the best facilities & infrastructure 10 years back but nowadays the scenario is quite different. The college is lacking in required equipments for study purposes. There is no maintenance & lack of interest to develop new facilities for students.

    Academics

    Academics of this college is good but the no of professors are really less & as a govt college, it didn't provide other academic associates as well which creates extra burden for the professors. The College has good curriculum but the lack of sufficient no of faculty & less enthusiastic management are the reason behind of such average academics.

    Placements

    Placement of this college is also not that good. Most of companies are invited by the students & college don't even provide the minimum required support. The process is not well-defined & there is an urgent need to improve & streamline this process as soon as possible.

    Value for Money

    The fees is very less as it is a govt college.

    Good Placements

    College Infrastructure

    Our college has a good infrastructure there is an administrative building and there is a central library. There are 5 hostels, and the hostel's food quality is horrible but the hostels have good connectivity water, electricity, and the Internet.

    Academics

    I love coding thats why I choice Information Technology deperment. The course cirriculam is very irrevent if any one just follows this he/she will dont get a job. Students should put on effort by own for his/her development.

    Placements

    The only good thing in our college is the placements. The highest package is 44 LPA provided by UBER and the average package is 9.5 LPA. The 2022 batch recorded 100% placements. Most students are placed in Amazon, Cognizant, Erection, etc.

    Value for Money

    The total fee for in a year is 60000. The tuition fee is 28000 and the hostel's fees are 32000. My hardon money is mostly weast because another department needs 50% to 60% less amount of money than our department needs.

    College Infrastructure

    There is a good infrastructure in our college, and full internet is available on the campus. There are lots of Laboratories in the college. Some of the classes are digital classrooms with projectors installed. There is a central library where students get mostly academic books but students are not allowed to study in the library. Hostel conditions are good in terms of electricity, water, and internet connectivity. But the space living space is not clean and mess food is not good and unhygienic.

    Academics

    I am currently studying Information Technology because I love computers and coding. Mostly the faculty members are well-qualified and a unique teaching skills. The curriculum is not updated not adapted to the recent technologies and teaches the old scrap technologies. This does not make students industry ready. Students should put effort into their skill development.

    Placements

    The most favorite thing in my college is placements. There is a record 100% placement in the Information Technology department in the 2022 batch. Cognizant is the mass requitor and Uber provides the highest placement 43 LPA and the average package offered by the companies is 12 LPA. Students got into MNCs like Amazon, Microsoft, Uber, Capgemini, L&T, Morgan Stanly, etc.

    Value for Money

    There is a total of 60000 costs per year that need to study and hostels, 28000 for tuition fees and 32000 for hostel fees. I think the tuition fees are too expansive compared to other departments. So, I think my money is not the value of worth it.

    Campus Life

    The college campus is very beautiful and students enjoy a very good college life. Students enjoy the annual fest JECLET and tech fest Sristi. There are lots of clubs like sports, drama, music, dance, Coding, Space research club, robotics club, etc. The teachers are very helpful. The college location is beside the National Highway, and there is a Hospital 500m near the college.

    Others

    College life is an important part of our life. We should choose our college very carefully. Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College provides you with a good exposer to college life.

    Value for Money

    As it's a government college,tution fees are very low as expected.But if you take hostel,you have to pay extra fees like 13k or 14k or you can also take mess.It's completely your choice.

    Campus Life

    You will absolutely love college life here.JECLAT and Sristi are the biggest fests here and the seniors are very helpful and knowledgeable.Its surroundings are absolutely superb.

    It includes library, gymnasium, auditorium, Boys' and girls' hostel, Wifi facilities, a variety of Mechanical Workshops, Laboratories, football playground and renowned college administrative building with departments and their classrooms.

    The quality of teaching is good one since the core faculty is one of the most experienced one and a lot of research work is carried out by teachers as well as students of college in different streams.

    Placements

    Placement in the non core sector is one of the boostup. The highest packages crossed 30 lakh year. Average is between 3.5 to 4 lakhs. Core sector students are mainly involved in competitive exams like Gate, GRE , CAT , etc.

    College Infrastructure

    Yes, infrastructure of this college is good. The classrooms and laboratories are well furnished. As a engineering college it provide us all essential facilities. The central library of our college consists of lots of books as it is one of the oldest engineering college of the country. we have total 3 sports ground and 5 hostels in our campus. The hostel food is good and in the hostel we get wi-fi and library facility. But the campus is not well maintained and is not cleaned regularly.

    Academics

    currently i am studying electrical engineering and i am in the first year . The quality of teachers is very good and the way they deliver the lessons is very enjoyable . They teach us in such a way that everything becomes very interesting to us . They are also very helpful and clear all our doubts . The course is very much updated . professors not only gives us theoretical knowledge but helps us to gain knowledge through practical experiment. If I study properly my future will be bright.

    Placements

    placement in our college is average. This year almost 70% students get placed with an average package 3.8 lpa . one of them is placed in MEDIA.NET with an package of 30 lpa. But in 2019 the placement scenario was not good at all. so placement varies from year to year . some no of companies visit our campus every year but they offer 3 to 3.5 lpa.

    Value for Money

    I am in electrical engineering department and my 4 years course fee is just 35000 . For all the core branches the course fee is minimum . But in case of Informational technology it is almost 1.10 lakhs for 4 years . But according to me it is very much worthy because if i go to pursue the same degree to a private engineering college it will take huge amount of money.

    Campus Life

    campus life is very good in our college. seniors are very helpful to us . There is no ragging in our college . There is total 18 clubs like coder's club , rotract club, dance club , drama club , photography club etc . our college also has an initiative named JOTI. This is mainly a free night study center where students from nearby slum come for studying.our college also has SRISTI(technical fest) and JECLET(cultural fest). college staffs, professors and alumnus are also very helpful.

    Not the best college in Acaddmics but best best for overall

    College Infrastructure

    Its satisfactory when a government college is considered. Wifi is available. Very good labs and workshops with advanced machines and technologies. 3D printers and CAD labs also present. Faculty is very co-operative and tbh that is the best thing. Faculties are extremely friendly and helpful. Theres a central library with most of the required books available as well as each library has its own library. Hostel rooms are satisfactory, not grand though.

    Academics

    Curriculum is based on the University guidelines. Teachers are well experienced. Though classes are cancelled sometimes. Practicals and workshops are organised. Participation in lots of Hackathons and Tech Fests are promoted. Overall its average.

    Placements

    Placements are good for CSE and IT. For my branch i.e. ME placement is a bit tough though some are placed in very good companies but those are like 5 students. Faculties are a lot supportive during the process.

    Value for Money

    Government Colleges are very friendly on the pocket. A 4 year course is costing me just 46K ruppees.

    Campus Life

    One of the best features. Overnight canteens open. Lots of clubs in campus. Gym in campus. Volleyball, Basketball courts are also there. Lots of playing grounds, indoor games in hostels. Robotics clubs, Space clubs, photography etc. College has its own music band and dance group. Organises the biggest Technical and Cultural fest of North Bengal. Most of the things available in campus including a State Bank branch and Indian Post kiosk branch. So no issues regarding safety. 24hr CCTV surveillance

    Which one is better Mechanical engineering in Jadavpur Unversity or electrical engineering in Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College, plz kindly reply and guide me .

    hi,

    see mechanical engineering and electrical engineering two are totally different stream. however if you compare the two Institute based on placement , curriculum, college campus life and every thing jadavpur university is best institute of west bengal. if you review the placement scenario of the jalpaiguri engineering college and jadavpur university , jadavpur is far better then jalpaiguri. one of the main thing is in JU core companies comes for core sectors departments placement like mechanical, electrical. however most of the government engineering college of west bengal  has top  recruiter is IT company like tcs, cts etc. so JU would be best to chose for your career.
