    The best of what I could expect after school

    College Infrastructure

    The infrastructure is good enough. The spaces are clean. There's wifi available. In my subject we really do not need a smart board, it might be there in the departments where it is necessary. There are departmental and central libraries.

    Academics

    I'm studying Comparative literature because I want to know more about literatures of the world, the similarities and dis similarities between them. The quality of teaching is outstanding and the curriculum is updated enough.

    Placements

    As per my knowledge, the quality and percentage of student placements is excellent. The highest salary package possibly went to the department of electronics and electrical engineering this year. Since I'm a second semester student I'm not very much aware.

    Value for Money

    The course fee per annum along with the admission fee had been something around 1200 Indian rupees. It is offcourse worth, considering the infrastructure, quality of education and knowledge, as well as maintenance.

    Campus Life

    The location is safe enough, with a police station and a hospital within a kilometer range - so it can handle emergencies. The students, teachers, and the support staff work like a family here in Jadavpur.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    College Infrastructure

    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.
