Jadavpur University, BE, Civil Engineering

Remarks

Some of our professors are currently spoiling the pride of our college due to their poor teaching skill and knowledge. Though the primary reason of that is the sin of reservation system of our nation. We are continuously trying to repair this problem but everything is not in our hand also.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Civil engineering has a large syllabus, but it's not very tough if one has a clear concept in 10+2 level in maths and physics. Each year we have to give 2 internal exams of 30 marks and 2 semester exams of 100 marks for each subject ( other than the practical exam and Viva )

Placement Experience

Placement scenario is really good in our college. Computer and electronics engineers have got offers above even 15 lakhs lpa in a few numbers. In civil engineering the avg lpa is about 5. As the salary in construction and structural engineering is relatively less. We all have done internships ( mostly unpaid ) during our college summer vacation in different well-known companies and those were arranged by the the solo interests of our professors.

College Events

4.5

There are number of events, organised in our college through out the year namely srijan ( technomanagement fest ), sankskriti ( annual fest ), sports events, departmental fresher's, departmental feats, u-turn ( intra departmental sports event for freshers) etc

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure of Jadavpur university is really much lesser with respect to other engineering colleges, So that talents would not be suppressed due to the lack of money. University only demands total11000 rupees for 4 years of engineering studies

Fees and Financial Aid

I don't think that the fee structure of Jadavpur university is such that one needs stripend/ loan facility to continue his/ her study. I don't know any such scholarships but probably there are some, which can be easily known from Jadavpur university official site

Campus Life

3.5

Lab facility is really well in our university. Several other authorities come to our college for different testing, there are a numbers of instruments and machineries which are only available to our college in Kolkata ( apart from IIEST shibpur). Sports facility is not that good

Alumni/Alumna

Yes, alumni association is very helpful. In each year, they arrange their own association programme. They also arrange gold medal award for top scorer in annual departmental exams out of their own expenditure. They also contribute a lot of money in our annual fest

Admission

By qualifying WBJEE 2016 and securing a rank of 928. Then by online counselling procedure I got admitted to B.E chemical engineering and after than I attended the spot counselling organised byu my college, through which I got admitted to B.E civil engineering

Faculty

3.5

Jadavpur university has a very good faculty in civil engineering department. Most of our teachers has completed their b.e degree from Jadavpur and IIEST shibpur, and have done their post graduation and PhD from IIT Kharagpur. They are also employed to different construction consultancy services all across India

Good Internship Opportunities

Likes

Helpful Faculties, the faculties over here helped us through out the course
Good clean and green campus with water supply at different places in the campus
Structured syllabus for industrial readiness in the curriculum

Dislikes

Nothing such I have disliked, but some classrooms projector did not functioned properly
Some time the guards unnecessarily behaved rude which I hated the most

Placement Experience:

The placement cell provides us with training programs and internships and also if the students are careful and disciplined in the classroms they can crack through job interviews. There is mock viva at the end semester and also some on campus hiring companies came in our college.

BCREC a underrated college

Likes

In my batch there are 64 student and there is only 17 girls.so the girl boy ratio is good.
This college has the largest campus of all the college in the West Bengal so college campus is really good
As I am a student of information technology so they are teaching me the course subject and also soft skill subjects that can help me in my placement journey

Dislikes

The college is located in rural area which is the bad thing
The course curriculum is not at the level of IIT NITs as we are studying some subjects which are introduced in the late semester which IIT and it and study in their second or third semester
The third thing I don't like is that the Student of the college discriminate among each other like the local residents who are bengali's day prefered their friend as Bengali

Placement Experience:

The college average placement are 6 lakh per annum and in my branch out of 64 student only 30 God placement but the mistake is of the students because many companies are visiting our colleges but they couldn't find the talent required for the skilled person they required

Review of Techno International NewTown

Likes

The college provides a moderately good infrastructure so it is more or less good. However some lab equipments have gotten old so upgrading those would be appreciated.
The teachers and students are very friendly so interacting is very easy. Teachers are mostly experienced and quite knowledgeable in their field of expertise. However the college follows the curriculum suggested by makaut which feels outdated.

Dislikes

The college doesn't give any options to play anything in college in their free time so that's an issue in my opinion. Also college isn't keen on giving NOCs for internships. Also they don't tend to provide funding to projects developed by students.

Placement Experience:

Studentsbecome eligible for placements from 7th semester. Various companies such as TCS, Infosys, Accenture, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, Godrej, etc. come for placements. Earlier many offers used to come however in the recent years the number of offers made have reduced significantly. highest package comes around 10 to 11 lakhs per annum with average being 4-5 lakhs per annum. I have kept my options open after completion of degree in doing further studies that is Mtech or getting into a job whichever seems appropriate at the situation.

Average Makaut college with no placements.

Likes

You can focus on gate, or any other job teachers are helpful no issue of attendance.
easily pass as syllabus is not hard,and get a B.tech degree.

Dislikes

poor infracture, lack of resources such as sports facility.
Less qualified teachers with no PHDs, and familiar with basic knowledge.
No placements, whatever you can do is off campus only

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is perceived as average , lacking specific elements that might make it stand out. In my case, the motivation was not to waste a year by opting for a drop. The flexibility in attendance which let me focus on other interests. The curriculum is same as MAKAUT, and the exam frequency is also controlled by MAKAUT .Areas of improvement is infrastructure and better faculty.

The Pros and Cons of Joining Jadavpur University Masters of Arts in Economics

1) I applied for Delhi School of Economics, however couldn't manage an admission due to the extreme cutoff on CUET exam for the same. I had confirmed admission from North Bengal University, however it was not feasible since I had a choice in Jadavpur University. Jadavpur University has the best rank among all other colleges I had a confirmed admission to, so I chose this University. 2) I wanted to study in Delhi School of Economics, but couldn't make it there due to the extensive cutoff in CUET which I unfortunately couldn't clear. 3) Jadavpur University conducts its own internal exam for admission into its esteemed Masters of Arts [M.A.] programme. However one can get through by CUET exams as well, however that needs a decent score. The cutoff in the internal exam is around 70% for General Category and for CUET, the cutoff varies yearly....Read More
