Remarks

It is one of the best Government Engineering Colleges in West Bengal. Total Course fee of the course is quite nominal as it is a Government Engineering College. Placement of this college was very good when I was joining this college. So I chose this college.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Our college is under Maulana Abul Kalam Azad university of technology.In every semester one has to give 2 internal exams & 2 assignments all of 25 marks.One has to have 75% of attendence to be eligible to sit for final examinations.Final examinations are of 70 marks.Our college has IIP cell which gives monthly newsletter of different internship opportunities & resources. After third year one gets internships and job offers. Otherwise a student can apply off campus for internships & placements. I would say faculties are good. They have very good knowledges of their respective domains.

Class Size: 62Course Fees: INR 96000 per year

Internships Opportunities

I got a internship as a Web devoloper in a startup company.I got this internship through linkedin. My salary was 5 thousands per month.

Placement Experience

3.5

Placement of branches like CSE, IT, ECE is good but for core branches it's not that good. Companies like Tcs, Cognizant, Wipro visit our campus. Average salary they offer is 3.5-4.5 lakhs per annum. They offer maximum 7-8 lakhs per annum salary to those canditates who are good in progarmming. Alumnies actively help our training and placement cell for finding job opportunities. They give referrels for service based companies and big tech companies. Many students who are good in competitive programming crack FAANG companies (like Microsoft, google etc).

College Events

4.5

The biggest Techno Management fest of our college is Espektro. It is a multiday event. The name of our freshers welcome event is Plexus. It is a 1 day event. Different hostels organize their own annual days events. Our college has different clubs. They organize their events throughout the year.

Fees and Financial Aid

I did not get any scholarship because my family income did not match the eligible criterias. But my friends got different scholarships like Swami Vivekananda Scholarship, National Scholarship,Oasis scholarship etc.

Campus Life

Our college has table tennis board, big ground for outdooor sports. Our college has a club namely "Al hambra" which organizes annual sports events. These consists different events like 100 meter run, relay, short-put,go-as-you like etc. Wifi facilities are good in hostels. Library is quite old. So it has a large collection of books of different subjects. The library has sufficient number of books.You can borrow books in 2 weeks. All kinds of labs are there. Wi-fi facility in the computer lab is stable. Facilities and equipments in labs are good.

Hostel Facilities

There are 4 hostels.Acharya prafulla chandra roy Hall for 1st years boys. 1st year days were full of fun.These days were the most memorable days of my life.All the first years stay together. 2nd to 4th year boys generally stay at Raja rammohan roy hall & vidyasagar chatrabas. Vidyasagar Chatrabas is situated outside the campus. Pritilata chatrinibas for 1 st to 4 th year girls. Hostels rooms are quite good. One generally shares room with 3-4 more students. Those who don't want to stay at hostels, they generaly stay as paying guests. Average monthly rentals generally ranges between 5-7 thousands nowadays.

Hostel Fee: INR 10000 per year

Admission

I had appeared for WBJEE 2016.I scored 74 marks

Faculty is serious and everything happens on time with proper functioning.
I liked the food of my hostel Raman abas that's unique because hostel generally provide average food.
I liked my batchmates, seniors and my hostel mates. They're just love.

Dislikes

The hostel and faculty infrastructure is very old need replacement asap.
Rural location of colleges so urban access of blinkit,zomato etc is unavailable.
Placement numbers here is too short university need to work on that.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Honestly, I was preparing for neet but after neet i was very clear that i want to do this(Agriculture). Practical cum theory approach here will make you a awared man in this field. Placements and Governments seats after UG is very competitive although. In upcoming future everyone will going to focus on larger production in limited land/cultivation area so Agriculture will be needed today and tomorrow.

My Experience at Jaipuria to summed it up.

Likes

Quality education and an academically enriching environment. Most importantly, well- versed professors.
Extra- curriculum activities, along with an active sports cell and NCC, and usually various opportunities to participate in Inter-College Competitions.
Well maintained gym with separate timings for girls and boys. The canteen offers a wide variety of foods at an affordable price.

Dislikes

For my department, there was no educational excursion.
Negligence internship opportunities are available for my course.
Only some placement opportunities are available, and companies like TCS and Wipro came up for campus placement.

Course Curriculum Overview:

My passion and a bit of curiosity in International Relations led me to choose this course. The curriculum, in fact, prepared me well for further academic pursuits. For improvement, educational excursions and internship opportunities should be made available. The exam is held twice a year on semester basis, with papers set at a moderate to difficult level.

Good enough

Likes

The faculty members are knowledgeable and supportive. Most teachers explain concepts clearly and are approachable after class for doubts and guidance, which helps a lot during exams.
The college has a disciplined academic environment with regular classes and practical sessions. Laboratories are functional and help students understand concepts through hands-on learning.
The campus environment is calm and student-friendly. Various seminars, cultural programs, and academic activities help in overall personality development.

Dislikes

Industry exposure and internship guidance are minimal, which could be improved to make students more job-ready after graduation.
Infrastructure can be improved, especially classrooms and laboratory equipment. Some facilities feel outdated and require modernization.
Placement opportunities for BSc students are limited. The college focuses more on academics, so students need to prepare for higher studies or competitive exams on their own.

Placement Experience:

The average package offered for such roles ranges between ?2–3 LPA, while the highest package offered to a BSc student is around ?4 LPA, depending on skills and specialization. Overall, around 15–20% of BSc students get placed through campus drives, and many students rely on off-campus opportunities.
