Remarks

If you are qualified in JEE/CEE you can get admission for engineering courses. And to get into Bsc. /IT courses you have to apply through their website as well as you can do it offline. Well, there are also reservations for Caste/Sports/Cultural etc. The admission process is smooth.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Electronics and Instrumentation is a good branch since there is a lot of scope for future implementation. You can go to fields if you are from an electronics background. Every 5 students get a mentor, who looks after their grades and gives advice. The faculty is very good when it comes to teaching. And there are quite qualified in their fields. For every semester we have 3 class tests and a final semester exam. The exams are difficult as expected but it is scoring too.

Class Size: 30Course Fees: INR 13000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

Well, I have done some internships and a stipend is provided after completion. The stipend depends on how long have you been in the internship program. It a necessary to complete some internships since it is mandatory for the course completion.

Placement Experience

After getting into the 3rd year it is possible for students to sit in the campus placements. There are many companies such as Wipro, Tata, Ongc, Neist etc which have selected students from college campuses. 15-20 students get placed from college campuses each year sometimes more depending on the batch. I will pursue M.Tech after my B.Tech completion, so I am not into the placements provided.

Fees and Financial Aid

Since it is a government college the fees here is quite affordable. And there are also a lot of scholarship schemes for students. Financial assistance is given to students (from poor economic backgrounds). Decent campus placements are available.

Campus Life

The annual fest is known as Abeyaantrix, it is quite big. And it happens in the month of Jan-Feb. National/international music artists are invited. Students do have a lot of fun on those days. The library is not so big but it has all the books required in the courses provided as well as some others. The Sports fest runs for about a week or so. It's the best way to show who got the best department in a way. So students try their best to showcase their sports skills (football, cricket, badminton, chess etc.). There are many social groups as well as clubs run by students(my favourite is the literature club). There are also some fun pages on insta/twitter run by students.

Teachers are good and friendly. Specially in civil the seniors are also good and friendly.
In civil dept there are many events which take place as compared to other dept .

Dislikes

Only boys hostel is there but no girls hostel.
In civil dept the placement opportunities are not upto the mark but in other dept specially chemical placement is good even in mechanical too.
Campus can be made more beautiful although work is going on.

Course Curriculum Overview:

See I had the passion for civil since my 10th std. I am really happy about my course . Because there are many job opportunities in govt sector in Assam. I like the teachers of my dept but some are not that friendly . Maybe it depends upon their mood sometimes I don't know really . The civil course is practical it's enjoyable. I would have liked it more if it would had more placement opportunities on campus . Otherwise it's fine

The management cell of the college is also do grat jobs. But the main problem I have found is placement. According to the other colleges the placement of this college is not so good. If the college can give more placement then it will become a great college. Overall its a great college full of knowledge.

A calm and disciplined campus life at JIST

I chose JIST because of its balance between affordability, academic structure and accessibility compare to many private engineering colleges JIST offers a government aided set up with lower fee which was an important factor for me at the same time. It provides a stable academic environment with focused engineering curriculum, other reason was location JIST is situated in Jorhat, which is relatively well-connected and has a calm academic atmosphere compared to colleges in bigger cities. It has fewer distractions and allow students to focus more on studies. The faculty availability and small batch size also made the learning environment field, more approachable than some other colleges I considered....Read More
