      Collage is best.

      College Infrastructure

      Infra is very good and just fab with all the facilities being provided. Its located in main kolkata with all requirements. There is wifi support, smart boards and the library is very big with lots of books.

      Academics

      The only issue is ragging. Non bengali students have to face major ragging issue. Professor are very good and it is a very known college even better than several iits. The quality of teaching is good.

      Placements

      Placement record is very good here. There are many offers made by reputed companies like google, Microsoft etc and the average package of software branches is nearly 16 lacs and for other branches its 8 to 9 lacs which is very good.

      Value for Money

      The fee is just 2400 per year and Its not a joke. You are getting a very good collage in a very very low amount.

      Campus Life

      Hostels are not too good due to ragging issue else everything is good.

      Outstanding university

      College Infrastructure

      Jadavpur university is the pride of West Bengal, as we know university have eco-friendly and green campus, it spread over 58 acres of campus and have good infrastructure including gymkhana, library, academic blocks and more things

      Academics

      Jadavpur university is famous for their academics as well as placement, by seeing academics, university provides great academics as well as good teaching also, all teaching staff is well and good qualified.

      Placements

      University recorded as the state best placement providing university as well as university give the opportunity to work in multinational companies including google, Microsoft and lots of other companies.

      Campus Life

      Campus life is not that much good, students are fighting and strikes happen ever time, university is co-education, and trying to stop all this activities..

      It's been a good experience so far.

      College Infrastructure

      The biggest problem with majority of the current infrastructure is that it's old, with exceptions. Some of it is under renovation. The walls are preoccupied with political posters which I find very problematic. In some parts of the corridor, smoking is sometimes evident which is a problem not often considered. The living spaces are partly clean, partly not. Cleanliness is definitely an issue in some parts of the campus. The food is good and very hygienic.

      Academics

      I'm studing economics. I'm still in first year so my experience is limited. But from what I've seen so far,the quality of teaching and class regularity is all dependant on the respective teacher. Good teachers teach well, and they are the majority. The curriculum is updated.

      Placements

      Whereas placements aren't at its best, they aren't bad. The average package is around 5-6 lakhs per annum. The highest packages are around 10-13 lakhs per annum. Placements only start after one has completed M. A. The numbers of companies coming for hiring students need to increase.

      Value for Money

      JU is as close to getting a free college education as one can have. In that sense, it's worth your money even if you don't learn much, but you mostly do. The fees as far as I know is around ₹1200 per semester. That's official, but students hardly pay that.

      Campus Life

      The campus is mostly clean, partly not. The campus is flooded with canteens, so you never go hungry. People are very friendly and welcoming. There's enough freedom for students, as much as a college campus can provide, sometimes more. Smoking again is a big issue for me. You can smoke anywhere in the campus which I'm in strongly in opposition to. It's a safe campus.

      Others

      Jadavpur University is one of a kind. Freedom of its students is something it upholds better than most colleges (sometimes more than needed) . The faculty is probably it's strongest asset. The infrastructure is partly old and needs renovation. There's zero ragging. It's a friendly and safe place to carry on your life after school.

      Jadavpur University contains all the necessary infrastructure and equipments for students . It has large, spacious and clean classrooms along with labs and smart board, libraries with wide variety of books for the course as well as for out of the box learning . JU has various sports teams headed by the sports board . There are eight hostels for students to accommodate . WiFi is available all over the campus . The infrastructure is well maintained and cleaned with eight canteens in the campus .

      Academics

      I'm pursuing my Bachelor's of Arts in Economics because of the wide scope and requirement in the world . The department has highly qualified professor probably the best in the city with qualifications from renowned universities all over the world . The curriculum is updated by the faculty which concentrate syllabus from various writings and books with projects provided to analyse current scenario in the economy. The course is mostly job oriented with programming learning in Stata and R .

      Placements

      There are not much placements in the department as most of them try to go for further studies in the field . Placements are given only after Masters and not after Bachelor's . The placements given are good and well placed . Details of such placements are not revealed by the authorities

      Value for Money

      Studying in. Jadavpur University is a 100% value for money or even in any state owned University. The annual fee of the first year is Rs1235 which is mostly nothing compared to the faculty and infrastructure provided . It is probably the cheapest you can ever pay as college fee. If you want to thrive in the field of economics, Jadavpur University is want you need . If you want to pursue your master's or doctorate in foreign or other Indian universities, the tag of JU has gravity in it.

      Campus Life

      As a fresher, the campus life is amazing with various clubs and societies around like debating ,painting ,music ,dance ,drama ,entrepreneurship,etc . The teachers are easily accessible and are ready to help regarding academic problems . The seniors are really supportive and would help you out any moment . Jadavpur University is a 58 acre campus(main) in the heart of South Kolkata . Though being an open campus , it is safe and can handled emergencies . Police station is just across the street.

      Others

      My experience as fresher has been amazing . Jadavpur University is like a home to me . Creating more memories and making dreams come true.

      College Infrastructure

      The Infrastructures here at Jadavpur University needs to improve. Being a state run University, the infrastructure is a little on the lower edge, but its worth the money you spend here while studying. Most labs are well equipped though.

      Academics

      The professors here are extremely qualifies and experienced. They are happy to share knowledge, and industrial opportunities. Jadavpur University is also famous for its research. So, you have a nice chance of gaining research knowledge if you want to while studying here.

      Placements

      The placements here at Jadavpur University has been pretty good from year to year. The scope for getting placed at Core Companies is pretty low though, but core companies do come at Jadavpur University. If you are technical enough, you will definitely grab a seat. Several IT giants all visit Jadavpur University, so if you are good with coding, you can definitely grab those jobs.

      Value for Money

      This is the field what makes Jadavpur University stand out. The tuition fee of the 4 years B.E course is 9600, which makes 2400 a year. Getting an Engineering degree at such an cost with so much facilities, exposure is truly mind-boggling!

      Campus Life

      The college campus is full of activities where students can engage in. There are many active clubs, where can students can join to get along with something other than academics. The Teacher-Student, Senior-Junior interaction is superb in Jadavpur University.

      College Infrastructure

      Infrastructure is decent. Both the campus (Jadavpur and Salt Lake ) have hostel facility, sports facility and library. But improvement and proper maintenance needs to be taken in several areas for SL campus.

      Academics

      I'm pursuing BE in Construction Engineering, which is almost Civil Engineering. Teachers are highly educated and their teaching methodology is remarkable. Students, here in JU, get placed after four years or go for higher studies.

      Placements

      Placement scenario is best in CSE, ECE and IT, great in IEE, EE, decent in PE, ME, ChE, moderate in MetE, FTBE, CE, ConsE, PowE, PrnE. There is no such poor placement. CSE students get the highest package of around 40 lpa and this department has 100% placement record.

      Value for Money

      Absolutely, the return of investment is great. You are paying Rs.10,710 for the 4 years Engineering course. That means 2678 per year. And getting 10+ lpa salary after 4 years which is much better in comparison to many IIT's and NIT's.

      Campus Life

      Currently, there are two campuses. The main campus is in Jadavpur and the second campus in Salt Lake. The main campus is much more spacious owing to it's larger area. Arts, Science and Engineering departments are present in Main Campus while 5 other Engineering departments and some PG course are present in Salt Lake campus. Moreover, JU offers many clubs and societies so that the students can improve their skill and find their own passion. Finally, the campus life is much better in main campus.

      Others

      Studying in JU is anyone's dream. And if you can make it, that means you have achieved the first stage of your success.

      It's all about you..not the university

      College Infrastructure

      Laboratory equipments are obsolete and numbers are less compared to the students. Library is great. Food and living space are nice.. computer lab far better...and one thing... special labs in master's are not so good

      Academics

      Don't expect much from the teachers in classroom. You have to do your own. But teachers are friendly and helpful... They will help you whenever you ask..but some teachers are not good at teaching...so you have to master of that topic by yourself

      Placements

      As for physics students...there are no good placements. You may find some companies...but they prefer engineering than physics...but if you have a course in electronics...you may have a chance... that's it

      Value for Money

      Education cost is lower than other institutions.

      Campus Life

      Campus environment is the best part of it. You will feel the freedom of a bird here. Teaching and non-teaching staffs are friendly and supportive.

      Others

      Once you get into it...it's sentiments will last forever....but for academic sides...you are the supreme of you...you have to stand for you... don't get involved in unnecessary activities....do what you have come to do.

      Great college ! Cheap and quality education

      College Infrastructure

      Satisfactory infrastructure! But needs maintenance for sure. Living space is clean for sure and canteen foods are too hygienic but in rainy seasons water logging really creates an issue for everyone. Libraries have ample books but in labs some computers do not work properly. Toilets are clean but sanitary equipments are sometimes missing. Wifi is there but its speed is a bit slow? Hostels are also well built. Smart boards are available in exam hall where certain classes are held.

      Academics

      I m studying mathematics and doing my bachelors degree here. The reason is my early curiosity in mathematics. I love to solve sums and play with numbers. Teaching quality is just satisfactory depending on the teacher for sure. The curriculum is quite lengthy and vast.

      Placements

      Jadavpur is known for its placement. But mainly in engineering section. 70-80% students are getting placed with an average 8-9 lakh per annum. Previous year one guy from CS got a whooping 1 crore package

      Value for Money

      It's known for its cheap and best education. 1800 rs per annum i.e just 150 rs per month is merely a burden even on economically weaker section. Its definitely worth every penny

      Campus Life

      The atmosphere is quite good! Everyone shares a good relationship with one another. Best in education and worst may be infrastructure (as compared to other big colleges)
