Admission:

Jadavpur University is one of the most renowned universities in India. I've applied in JNU but couldn't make it there as I didn't have enough preperation. JU conducts entrance exams where the questions are mostly subjective. You have to have 60% in your graduation to apply for admission test in JU. Questions may not seem that difficult if you have a constructive thinking pattern and a good writing habit.

Admission:

After getting my WBJEE rank my first college allotted was Heritage Institute of Technology. After that I got Kalyani Government Engineering College and University of Calcutta respectively. But Jadavpur University was an obvious choice for me when I got admission into it during its decentralized counselling. In heritage I got Computer Science and Engineering where as in Kalyani I got electrical engineering and in University of Calcutta I got information technology. But all of this colleges placement is not compable with Jadavpur University Civil Engineering at all. Jadavpur University in terms of fees and placement is way ahead then any other colleges that comes under WBJEE. You have to score at least under 3000 rank to get your dream college that is Jadavpur University.

Admission:

I tried to get admission to other colleges like IITs, NITs, BITS etc. I secured a rank of about 14k in JEE Advanced and 7k in JEE Mains but was not getting a suitable college+branch combination in the IITs and NITs. I secured a rank of 855 in WBJEE and easily got admission in the electrical department at JU. JU ranks 12 in engineering , 9 in universities and 17 in overall category as of NIRF 2024. It is also very good for placements and research opportunities .Also , fee structure is quite less and it is near my house , so was very suitable for me . The admission process was also a smooth one . We has to report at JU with necessary documents and we got a provisonal admission form . After successful fee payment , i got admitted in the electrical department of JU. Most students prefer the CSE or IT department due the high packages. The cutoff of CSE is 150 , IT is 400 , EE 1100 rank as of 2023 in JU based on WBJEE exam . So , it is quite competitive to get admission here.

Jadavpur University: 4 Answered Questions

Is Jadavpur University better than NIT Durgapur? If yes, which stream would be preferred?

Raghav SainiB.Tech from National Institute of Technology Durgapur (2022)

Both the colleges have their pros and cons. Your choice of college should be based on branch. I did my Mechanical from NIT Durgapur and my friend did his Mechanical from Jadavpur University. I am eligible to answer this question.

First of all, JU is much higher in ranking than NIT Durgapur. Also, the fees at JU are way more affordable. As JU is located in Kolkata, IT companies visit the campus more often. As far as core courses are concerned, the faculty for ME especially, is good at both the colleges. But core placements are much better at NIT Durgapur because PSUs visit the campus. On the other hand, JU students have to sit for GATE. 

If you wish to study CS, IT or ECE, choose Jadavpur University without second thought. As far as core jobs are concerned, choose NIT Durgapur.

Is Jadavpur University good?

Sahil Khanna,B.E. in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, Jadavpur University (2018)

One of my friends studied at Jadavpur University. According to him, it is a really good institution and is considered among the tier-1 universities in India.

From Academics to extracurricular activities, JU is outstanding. The reason was that here you are studying engineering in the real sense . 

  • The concepts, theories, etc. were simplified by the highly experienced faculty members.. 
  • There are a complete range of laboratories dedicated to each course.
  • Many students of NITs have also said that the teaching method in JU is really good.
  • Apart from studies, various clubs and sports facilities enhance your personality as well. They are known to provide quality education at a very reasonable amount. 
  • Fee structure is really low and affordable for almost every student.
  • They have a strong alumni network.

It is suggested that you do not get disheartened, if you do not get into the top IITs or NITs. Because JU guarantees providing the best education and opportunities both for jobs and higher studies.

Which is better between IIT Patna and Jadavpur University for an equivalent branch?

Sushmita RajputLives in Patna

I have seen many students prefer JU to new IITs because of the experience and legacy it holds in contrast to recently established IITs. None of these students regret their decision of choosing JU over IIT. 

JU has the upper hand in terms of both placements and the quality of research work here. In fact, top NITs, BITS, JU, DTU, NSIT, IIITs, and such institutes are all better options than most of the newer IITs. These institutes have good credibility owing to their strong alumni network thus providing better opportunities. Those who prefer to stay on the safe side give more preference to these institutes than newer IITs.

The new IITs are expected to reach heights in the future and only then will you be able to benefit from their IIT tag. As of now, they lack credibility and opportunities. 

Ultimately, it’s your call to make because you can even avail the best opportunities through minimal resources.

Is IIT Bhubaneswar ECE better than JU CSE, without considering IIT tag?

Debopriya MajumderB.Tech Mechanical Engineering, Jadavpur University (2021)

No, IIT Bhubaneswar ECE is not better than JU CSE. According to NIRF India Engineering ranking for 2019 JU ranked 13, whereas IIT Bhubaneswar was at 17.

JU may have its own problems but it still remains a university with a great reputation especially for CSE. Almost all big known companies visit the campus for placement for CSE. According to 2019 placement records, the CSE department of JU has some unbeatable records with 90% of the students getting placed. The average salary package offered was INR 12 LPA and may go as high as INR 40 LPA. Major recruiters of CSE department of JU(2019)- Amazon, Microsoft, Paypermint D.E.Shaw, Wipro Turbo, Samsung (Bangalore, Noida, Delhi), Goldman Sachs, Adobe, Synopsys, Work Applications (Singapore), SAP Labs, C-DOT, Siemens, Oracle, Reliance, PriceWaterhouse Cooper, G.E.Digital, Reve System, Dynamic Digital Technology, MU Sigma and many more.

Since IIT Bhubaneswar ECE started in 2016 and the students will graduate in 2020. Although the placement record for other branches is good, around 10 LPA for Electrical Engineering.

IIT Bhubaneswar may provide more exposure and a shiny IIT tag but between IIT Bhubaneswar ECE and JU CSE, JU CSE will be the better choice.
