Entrance Preview

I took WBJEE exam in which I ranked 276. Apart from IIT Kgp, Jadavpur is the best university in West Bengal without a doubt and that rank was good enough for this branch(in 2012), but now u need to be within top 200 to get this course now. Jadavpur has some experienced and distinguished faculty.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Course curriculum is not great, but not bad either, they are currently modifying it and it is getting better. They do teach c as the first programming course but languages like python are not still not being taught and there are still a lot of unnecessary subjects being taught there which are a waste of time for a computer engineer. They do have good labs though which may come in handy.

Internships Opportunities

Amazon, Microsoft, Samsung, Myntra, Goldman Sachs are some of the companies which offered internship. Stipend was in the range of 50-70k for two .

Placement Experience

4.5

Job placements and opportunities for Computer Engineering and IT are very good, comparable to any good institute in India but cannot say the same for other branches.

College Events

2.5

The biggest cultural event is Sanskriti and many bands and singers or distinguished guests and performers are present during that time. For freshers, there is a separate event for them each year where they participate in sports, games and other activities. There is also technical events that go on during Sanskriti where students from all over Kolkata come to participate in.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Per semester fee is only a small 1200 inr. So in 8 semester, one has to pay only 9600. Less than 10k.

Fees and Financial Aid

I am not aware of any such scholarship or loan facility offered by my university and to my knowledge there is no such facility. There might be some waving for those from unprivileged background.

Exam Structure

Each semester had 4 labs. So we had to attend to 4 labs which lasted for 3 hours each week. 2 mid-term exams each semester and one final exam. So, exams never left us with a hectic day. And everyone in Jadavpur is very chilled out. The campus will pour in a freshness in anyone.

Faculty

3

Faculties are mostly on the aged side. To be honest, some of the teachers are really boring. But one thing is that. They are always ready to help and are very friendly. I can't say about other branches but computer science branch lacks young energetic faculties.
