Absolutely satisfied with placement, behaviour of the faculty members, and the infrastructure.
Placements: The percentage of students placed in our college in civil engineering department is 90 percent. The highest package is 12 LPA (on campus), and the lowest is 5 LPA, that's how it becomes 8.5 LPA on average. Top recruiting companies are L&T, BEL, TCS, etc. 100 percent of students get internships in their 3rd year in different companies like ECL and HPL as well as in IITs, NITs, for research internships.
Infrastructure: Our college provides us labs, proper classrooms are there with projectors, and library for self-studies and books. There are separate departmental buildings, and each of them has different labs and facilities in them. Hostels are also good. Food is almost homelike. Canteens are available every 200 meters. Medical facilities are there. More than 3 big grounds are there. Volleyball court, basketball court, cricket ground, and all games and sports equipments are also there. I think our college is in a very good locality, and has a beautiful campus, it is just there is lack of maintenance.
Faculty: In our civil engineering department, teachers are so cooperative and helpful. Each of them has teaching experience and treats us as their children. They train the students to become industry-ready. Semester examinations are also upto the mark to check out knowledge.

I just want to say that the college is best for faculty, placement, hostel life.
Placements: 70% of the students in my department were placed last year. The highest package offered was around 7-8 LPA, and the lowest was 3 LPA. Several good companies, including L&T, recruit from JGEC each year.
Infrastructure: The facilities at Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College are not too good and are quite limited. The same goes for the hotel here, where the only meal served is lunch or dinner; there is no breakfast. On the plus side, the hostel has good sports facilities, and the weather in Jalpaiguri is very pleasant.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, and the teaching quality is good. They prepare you for the industry. The difficulty level of the semesters is average, and the passing percentage is 40%.
Other: I chose this course because I am interested in the subject matter. I am finding the course to be challenging but rewarding.

Good infrastructure and fair placements.
Placements: Fair placements occur, and students get good placements according to their merit in the college. Both core and non-core students get good placements. Companies like L&T, TCS, Cognizant, and Adani come to campus to recruit students, and the candidates get placed with impressive packages.
Infrastructure: Detailed course, good faculty members, and satisfactory hostel facilities make for an enjoyable experience here. Though the food is not great, it's okay. The classrooms are not the best, Wi-Fi is not available, and the library has old and outdated books, in need of new ones.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and dignified, with good qualifications. Good grades are given, and semester attendance is important. You should be diligent, serious, and focused to score well in exams and practicals. Teachers are always there to assist you in tough times and help you overcome them.

    I heard that civil engineering admissions close around GMR 150. Still, you can try your luck as it depends on the number of seats.
