Review of JGEC - Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College.
Placements: Earlier, the placement scenario at Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College was not very promising. However, there has been a significant improvement since then. In the academic year 2022-23, almost all students were placed. Among core departments, nearly 90% of students found placements, while in non-core departments, the placement rate reached 100% in big companies. The highest package offered was 63 LPA from the CSE department in a Google off-campus drive, while the lowest package recorded since 2017 was 6 LPA. The top recruiting companies include Infosys, TCS, Adani, Tata, among others. Approximately 97% of students secured internships, both offline and virtual, in companies like Infosys, Capgemini, Microsoft, etc. Details regarding the top roles offered have not been properly published by the college yet.
Infrastructure: Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College, being one of the oldest colleges in West Bengal, suffers from poor infrastructure. The overall appearance of the college is not favorable, with the colors appearing dull. Classrooms are often dirty, with broken benches. However, each department has its own classrooms, practical rooms, and labs, equipped with Wi-Fi facilities. The college boasts of two libraries, but the condition of the hostels is subpar, with dirty bathrooms being a common issue. Despite this, the food provided in the hostel canteens is of good quality. Each hostel has its own separate canteen and a common room for recreational activities. Unfortunately, medical facilities for students are lacking, and water availability is inconsistent.
Faculty: For every department, there are almost 10 teachers, each of whom holds an M.Sc. degree. However, they do not teach us properly, and classes are often canceled due to the teachers being busy. As a result, the teaching quality is rated at 5 out of 10. The course spans 4 years, divided into 8 semesters. Each semester consists of one external exam and two internal exams for every subject. The questions are relatively easy, with a pass percentage of 40%.
Other: Two events took place: Sristri and Jaclet. The seniors are not supportive and often engage in ragging junior students.

My honest review of JGEC IT Department.
Placements: In the information technology branch, 95% of students are placed in renowned companies. Top recruiting companies include Infosys, JUSPAY, Cognizant, and TCS. The top roles offered are software engineer, SDE1, SDE2, and graduate engineer trainee. The highest package is 60 LPA (off-campus), the lowest package is 4 LPA, and the average package ranges from 7 to 8 LPA. About 30 to 40% of students get opportunities for internships.
Infrastructure: Our college, established in 1960, has older infrastructure, especially the administrative building. However, the campus is very large—the second-largest in West Bengal. It offers B.Tech courses in six different fields: CSE, IT, ME, CE, EE, and ECE, and two M.Tech courses in CE and ME. Various sports facilities, like cricket and football, are available.
Faculty: All the teachers here are highly qualified and helpful. They provide guidance on various topics. This college offers only engineering degrees (B.Tech.. and M.Tech..), preparing students for industry work. Affiliated under MAKUT, it's also an autonomous college, conducting exams independently.
Other: I chose IT because it's a highly demanding course. The college organizes annual festivals like JECLET and a teachinging festivalival called SHRISTI. Located in Jalpaiguri, the environment is beautiful, with a spacious campus offering various sports facilities. There are scholarship opportunities like SVMCM, OASIS (government scholarships), and alumni scholarships.

One of the best engineering colleges in West Bengal.
Placements: From the 7th semester on, students become eligible for campus placement. Companies like TCS, Cognizant, Wipro, etc. are recruiting. Also, 50–60 percent got placed in many companies by campus interviews. Until now, the highest package of 45 LPA has been offered to a student at our college, with an average of 5–6 LPA offered. Almost 70–80% of students can get an internship. Mainly, IT personnel get placed easily.
Infrastructure: I have chosen this course because it gives us more benefit in terms of getting jobs in product-based companies like Google, Amazon, etc. Also, I have what I consider to be the best code in India. So I choose IT. All of the faculty is well educated; most of them have completed Ph.D.s and have Masters in their domain. Hostels are very old and located 2 km from the college area. The campus area is not used properly. Most of the area is covered with bush. Hostel meals are not good. Food quality is poor.
Faculty: The faculty in our college are, in fact, good and highly educated. They are friendly with the students, which also increases the student-faculty relationship, which is highly required for proper understanding by the students. Project work and the most important laboratory experiments will be very helpful for the students to understand their areas.
Other: Since it's a government college, the fees are low. If anyone can't afford that feeling, he or she can definitely apply for a scholarship, and scholarships are absolutely worth it to afford semester fees.
