Real Talk: My B.Tech College Experience.
Placements: Our batch is 2023-2027, and I am studying B.Tech. Around 60-70% of students got placed from our course. The highest package offered was 12 LPA, the lowest 3 LPA, and the average package is around 5 LPA. Top recruiting companies are TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Cognizant, and Accenture. Around 50% of students got internships in different companies like TCS, Infosys, Wipro, and some startup companies. Top roles offered are Software Developer, Web Developer, Data Analyst, and IT Support. There are some problems regarding placement that should be rectified.
Infrastructure: The facilities in my course department are good. We have well-equipped labs and classrooms, Wi-Fi available, but sometimes it's slow. The library has good books but needs more new editions. The hostel rooms are clean, but there is sometimes a water problem; the mess food is tasty but repetitive. The canteen serves snacks, the medical facilities are okay but not 24 hours, and the sports and games facilities are average. A lot of things are needed.
Faculty: Teachers are mostly helpful and qualified. They know their subjects, but sometimes they explain too fast, and it is difficult to understand. The teaching quality is good, but it depends on the teacher. The course curriculum is mostly relevant and gives basic knowledge for the industry, but more practical exposure is needed. Semester exams are a bit tough sometimes; the pass percentage is around 70-75%. Many students fail because they do not prepare.
Other: Our batch is 2023-2027, and I am studying B.Tech. I chose this course because I like engineering and want a good career in the technical field. The best things about the course are practical learning in labs and supportive teachers. I wish there were more industry visits and an updated syllabus. The college has good events and fests, the campus crowd is friendly, connectivity is okay, and the surroundings are peaceful. Scholarships are available for needy students. Extracurricular activities like sports and cultural programs are also organized, but could be more frequent. One problem is that general category students do not get scholarships; this is an issue.

Great campus life, average placements, and improving faculty.
Placements: The college has a Training & Placement cell that organizes aptitude tests, group discussions, and mock interviews. These prepare students for both technical and HR rounds. According to Careers360, in one placement cycle, 131 students were placed. The median salary (for UG) is around 4.70 LPA as per one report. According to college batch, the highest package is around 8 LPA.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are average. Rooms are decent but not very modern. Basic furniture is provided. Water and electricity are generally available, but maintenance can be slow sometimes. Cleanliness depends on the wardens and students. Discipline is not perfect but manageable. Food quality is okay, not great. The mess menu is repetitive, but hygiene is acceptable. Canteen food is better than the mess, but choices are limited. Overall, food is average like in most government engineering colleges.
Faculty: There is a large variation in pass percentage according to different students. Some say very low (33%), others very high (90+%). This suggests that difficulty may depend heavily on the branch, semester, or teacher. The official pass mark per subject (for exams) is relatively standard (35%) under JUT’s grading scheme, which is common in many engineering colleges. The attendance requirement (75%) is strict. Missing lectures can make exam eligibility harder.
Other: Athletics (running, relay race), football, basketball, volleyball, cricket, badminton, table tennis, chess, tug-of-war, kabaddi, powerlifting (in some fests). Other indoor games include carrom, pool, etc.

All things are good except placements and internship.
Placements: The placements rate are very low. Believe me, only 4 to 5 students just get placed every year out of 180 students. Literally, 4 students, believe me. Hence, the placement rate is 3%. I know it is hard to believe, but it is the reality of Dumka Engineering College. And one important note is that our college does not provide any on-campus placements. They just sent 10 students to Techno India Main Salt Lake, Kolkata (as it is run by Techno India). Out of 10, only 4 got placed in each department.
Infrastructure: Campus life is good, not that bad. Lots of greenery, and it is pretty decent and beautiful. Classrooms are also quite decent. Labs, lab teachers, smart rooms, library, and everything is available as required with no problem there. Hostel food is not that good, pretty decent and oily as usual. Sports and games do happen every year.
Faculty: Teachers are well-educated and skilled, but the only main problem is placements and internship. All teachers are well-qualified, and everyone has done either their Ph.D., M.Tech., or B.Tech. from IITs and NITs. The course curriculum is difficult, but you can pass easily if you study well.
Other: I chose this course as I have an interest in coding and computers, and the main thing is CSE has scope and it gives quite a pretty good salary. E-Kalyan scholarship is available for OBC, SC, and ST students who belong to Jharkhand. The free seat will get around 30k of scholarship, and the payment seat usually will get 65k to 70k+ scholarship every year.

Average college, Good placements for IT guys.
Placements: 70-80% Students were placed, but the main reason is only it companies recruit students. Core branches (CE, ME, EE) students also apply for IT jobs or preparing for government jobs because of Lake of core jobs. Avg package offered by IT companies is around 4-5lakh.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, smart Classrooms are available and library have inof books for semesters as well as GATE or other compitative exams. You can join hostel if you want otherwise PGs are available in walking distance from tha campus, in college hostel there are 3 students in a room.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, few have Ph.D. degrees or most of lectures have master degree, lab assistants are also qualified. Course curriculum is decided by the University (Jharkhand University of Technology). Semester exams are not too much difficult if you are studying regularly.
Other: As we know that Electrical branch is a mother branch, in this branch there are many opportunities in government as well as pvt sector. Basically I choose this course because I want to join PSUs by qualfiying GATE exm.

Our college is good to spend four years.
Placements: Placements provided on-campus were average. MNCs did not offer placements but small growing companies offered placements with good salary packages.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college was average but students got valuable degrees. There was a good hostel but the food served was not hygienic. I was dissatisfied with the hostel food.
Faculty: Teachers in our college were good, very helpful, caring, supportive, and qualified. They did not give enough time until students show any interest.
Other: Our college was very good.
