Placement Experience:

Eligibility criteria is not rightly followed here but no backlogs acts as one. A cgpa around 7 to 7.5 is nice one to apply for companies. A good amount of recruiters visit are Texas Instruments,Google, Accenture,PWC, Schrodinger,Wells Fargo etc. Average package in our department= 10 LPA Highest package= 35 LPA In our department around 95 to 100 % of students get placed. Firstly my plan is to get placed and if interested can apply for Masters in IITs.

Remarks:

Best college in terms of return of investment Best academic one of the top institution in West Bengal. Rich lived history of this branded institution. Admission is only taken through rank of WBJEE State exam.Not by any other means like interviews and written tests.

Placement Experience:

Students need to have a CGPA of above 6 to sit for most of the interviews. In 2023-24 batch 90% of the students got placed.The highest CTC is 1.4 Cr and the average is of 19.6LPA .Top recruiting companies includes Google, Wells Frago, BNY MELLON, SalesForce.Less students get internship approx. 30-40% students get internships in Google ,Intuit, Wells Fargo, SalesForce.Top roles offered to the students are Software Development Engineer,Assistant Member Of Technical Staff.My plan is to get into a good company and learn new skills.

Remarks:

The placement of our college is very good along with the fests and the student and alumni support that made me choose this college.Some bad aspects of our college is the politics and student Unions in the college.To get into Jadavpur University in Engineering stream one need to give the WBJEE Exam with exam centres in West Bengal and Tripura.The cut off rank for the last branch I.e printing engineering is almost 3k.If one prepares physics chemistry and maths from ncert ,you can make into Jadavpur University,also JEE Mains preparation helps a lot.

Placement Experience:

Actually there is no placement after only graduation. This is a general course , not a technical one. Yes you can get placement offers after completing masters. The companies generally come in the last year of masters. One have to clear all the semester exams and have no backlogs. A good grade will always get yourself ahead of others. Edtech companies like Akash-byju's, Physicswallah, Pathfinder etc. and other Chemistry related companies like- Reliance etc. come to our campus. Some companies those who have particularly come for engineering students, allow chemistry masters students to appear in their selection procedure. The edtech companies generally offer starting from 6 lpa and other companies also offer similar. This amount vary company to company .The chemistry related companies will recruit you into Research and development section.

Remarks:

This university has a great brand value and one of the best Chemistry department all over India. You can ask almost anyone and they would proceed you to refer to this college . I was admitted in the year 2021. In that year, there was no admission test. Everyone was selected on the basis of their Secondary and Higher Secondary examination result. From later on, Administration opted for admission test. This is held every year at about July or august. The exam is held in the University campus. And all the students are asked to attend the counselling round otherwise they wouldn't be eligible for the upcoming lists.

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible to sit in placement campusing in the 4th year. According to Placement 2024, the very few recruited companies are L%T, Hero, Capgemini, TCS, and so on. The highest package was 27 LPA offered by Gupshup, and the mean CTC was 10.1. 62+ companies came, and no. of students placed was 105. it was 100% placement. I want to go to MNC's.

Remarks:

The name of my university is Jadavpur University. Pursuing Mechanical Engg. 2nd year. The availability of teachers is very large in number. They are highly qualified. Teachers are very communicative and cooperative in nature. If there arises any kind of doubt at any time, they will help to figure out the problem. They are very friendly in nature. Students will contact them anytime and are ready to help at any cost. Teachers-student relations are quite good. Teachers help students in the semester very nicely.

Placement Experience:

The placement scenario varies but is quite good. For my course almost all students who sit for the interviews get a job. There are placements for interviews as well. The overall system is quite good.

Remarks:

It is not easy to get in here, especially the CSE program which has really high cut-off in the WBJEE exam. So prepare your PCM in +2 well if you want to be here. Generally you have to rank within 200 in the WBJEE exam to get into the cse stream.

Remarks:

I chose Jadavpur university as it is one of the best and top university of India. To get admitted here one has to give the admission test which is held by the uni every year for UG,PG,PhD and every other courses.

Placement Experience:

Yes on campus placements is there for every course that jadavpur offers . Yet , significant campussing occurs only for those who have great skill set , according to the market . So you need to have one .

Remarks:

The admission to my course , goes past an entrance exam conducted by the University itself a 100 MCQ question is prepared each question carrying 2 marks . One needs to prepare the entire 11 and 12 th physics course syllabus for its preparation. One good side about our university is highly talented students all around , great smart enviornment . Yes there are some cons , like students have a lot of power in their hand like fixing exam schedule , I don't like that .

Placement Experience:

JU has an incredible placement cell. From top MNCs to new startups everyone visits during placement season. students really work hard to bring companies almost every student get placed. For circuital branches the average placement is 15LPA and for non-circuital branches the average placement is 8LPA.

Remarks:

I chose the college because it is situated in my hometown, In addition, the institution has great brand value, a strong alumni base, and a beautiful campus. By the way, it should be known to the students that JU has 2 functional campuses, 1st in Jadavpur, 2nd in Salt Lake. The best college I was getting on my AIR was JU, so it was easy for me to choose it. To get admission into JU one has to clear WBJEE with a good rank (<3k).

Course Curriculum Overview:

BE. Printing and Packaging Technology is an interdisciplinary course offering worldwide opportunities in this rapidly growing sectore. Though away from mainstream this stream offers numerous opportunities with very low competition because of lack of colleges who teach this courses and this is another factor which attracted me to choose this field. This also allows me to go into three job sectors - consultancy core or software therefore I have my options open and can change whenever I want. The faculty here are experts of what they do and they teach that what is expected from one of the top universities od the world. There are no mid sems, Class tests and Semester exams are what they conduct and they are difficult enough but nothing clmes outside of which are taught by the tecahers. They are taken quite timely

Remarks:

Jadavpur University is the topmost college that can be obtained by WBJEE which has as fierce a competition as JEE na dother competitive Engineering exams. Jadavpur University itself is a brand and on par with many new IITs, this college provides worldwide exposure with minimal charges. The last branch i.e. BE Printing closed at around 3k WBJEE rank. The syllabus is similar to that of JEE Advanced and Physics and chemistry are tougher than JEE Mains while maths is on par with JEE Mains.
