What Students Say

Likes

Almost Zero "Physical" Harrasment in terms of Ragging, compared to many other engineering colleges.
Serene and Peaceful Environment with Lots of Greenery
The Basic Placement Assistance and Surity in our Department

Dislikes

Poorly Maintained Infrastructure and Very Little Fundings for Laboratories and other improvements
The curriculum taught often misses a lot of should-be-covered topics as per AICTE guidelines.
The less strictness in terms of attendence and discipline of the students.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Examinations are conducted timely, however, the strictness in the schedule for the classes in the Information Technology department is very weak and casual. Classes often get cancelled, and laboratory facilities are not even the bare minimum.

Class Size: 63Course Fees: INR 110937 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

The College provides internship and training opportunities to the students of the 3rd and 4th years. Usually in the new AI and Development startups as roles of Front-End or Back-End or Full-Stack Software Developers and Engineers. Through companies such as IBM, Wipro, Infosys, TCS, etc.

Placement Experience

3.5

Campus Placement formally starts from the 7th semester... In our department, around 85-90% get placed by the 4th year considering both on- and off- campus placements. Others may opt for higher studies or go for start-ups, etc. There's usually a record of companies such as Wipro, Infosys, TCS, Media.net, NetMeds, Amazon, Aakash and few others visiting the campus for recruitment processes.

Fees and Financial Aid

For the Information Technology department, the first-year fees are a total of 34,377/- to be paid in 2 semesters And 25,532/- each for the subsequent 3 years, each to be divided and paid in 2 respective semesters each year. The Examination fees are 1,200/- per semester, and 1,000/- for the backlog, if any.

Campus Life

Several fests are held in the college, such as the Technical Fest Srishti, Annual Event JECLAT, and other Sports, Entertainment and Educative Club Events, most of which are managed and organised wholly by the students of the college. The Authority and Management pay little interest and attention in most cases. There are more than 20 Clubs organised by the students in our college, 5+ active clubs... Such as the Coder's Club [DnC, i.e. Divide and Conquer], Cyber Security [Zero Logon], IEEE, Centre for Innovation [CFI], etc. are some of the Technical Clubs... The Campus has a lot of greenery and is huge, but has very little maintenance...

Admission

This is an autonomous college, affiliated under the Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology, and registered under the State Government Colleges of West Bengal, admission into which is possible through the clearance of the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination [WBJEE] or entering laterally through the Joint Entrance Lateral Entry Test [JELET]. The candidates who are residents West Bengal do avail the benefits of the Home State quota. Other quotas include the OBCs, SCs, STs, Tuition Fees Waiver[TFW] and PWD. To mention, there is no Female Quota for WBJEE candidates.

Unbiased Review of JGEC

Placement Experience:

At JGEC,campus placements begin mostly from the 6th/final year semester,when students become eligible .I recent years many well-known companies have visited such as Pinnacle Infotech,Synnova Gears & Transmissions Pvt.Ltd,,TCS,Jyesta corporate Entity and many more.The highest package was around 54 LPA form Google ,While the overall average is 10.2LPA.Many students also take internships, industrial training or prepare for higher studies(GATE) rather than accepting direct placement immediately.The exact percentage of student getting palcement is no where.But last year the percentage placed is 70%.

Unbiased Review of JGEC

I applied to a few other government engineering colleges but i ended up choosing JGEC.The main reasons: JGEC is a well established,fully government owned autonomous college,with good accreditation.It also has a long history since 1961,which made me trust its academic environment.Compared to other colleges i applied to ,JGEC felt more stable and credible.It also has a reasonable structure and good campus infrastructure,labs and oppurtunities for intership .There is also a good scope for higher studies like GATE.The marks vs rank went extremely high in WBJEE 2025.That's why i didn't get a college i applied for which is near my home. You can take admission by giving WBJEE and JELET only.As it is a government college you can only take admission if you get a good rank .There is also different cut-offs for diff catagory.The overall admission process is was very smooth and systematic....Read More
