JGEC is good for campus life and to get a good placement in your hands.
Placements: Here, most placements are in non-core departments and placement is between 5 LPA and 9 LPA. The highest package is 18 LPA here. 95% of students got placed in any reputed company, and others chose a path for higher education like M.Tech, UPSC, and many others. There are many clubs for coding and studying other things.
Infrastructure: There are four hostels on our campus for each year, and one ladies' hostel. The hostel food is more delicious, and the hostel infrastructure is very beautiful. In our hostel, the roof of Kanchenjunga is clearly visible, and beside the hostel, a tea garden is present, so nature is beautiful.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and well qualified, often with good experience, and many students find them helpful and approachable. Doubts cleared, and an idea was given for our students, such as placements and projects from our teachers. JGEC is an autonomous college so there is an opportunity to get a good CGPA.
Other: Mind it, JGEC is an autonomous college.

JOLU, the beloved name of Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College | Mechanical Engineering.
Placements: Approximately 86% of students are placed on campus. The highest package is 2 LPA by BHEL, a PSU company. The lowest is 5 LPA, and the average may be 6.7 LPA. Internships are coordinated with NIT Jamshedpur, which is provided by the college in terms of research internships, and there are many industrial internships done by students.
Infrastructure: There is better infrastructure available in our college. There are many types of machines in the workshop, including welding, carpentry, and computer laboratories. Classrooms are in good condition with CCTV. There are 4 boys' hostels for different years (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th), and the ladies' hostel is far from theirs. There is Wi-Fi available in each hostel room. However, hostel food is average. There are 4 large fields for sports and recreation.
Faculty: Professors are well-qualified, with many holding Ph.D. degrees from various IITs. They are very supportive. There are many clubs for cultural, sports, and technological activities. The college's workshop experiences make students industry-ready. There are 3 types of exams: internal and main semester exams. Exams are slightly tough. Despite that, approximately 80-90% of students pass.
Other: Currently, I'm pursuing this Mechanical Engineering course from JGEC. I chose this field because my core interests lie in innovation and creative things. I'm giving my best to achieve something big. I believe that if we bring the most advanced technology, it will reach its peak.

Great college with infrastructure.
Placements: Almost 80% of people got placed overall. The placement of the core department is amazing. Recently like this year a PSU recruited 12 students. Top recruiters like Tata Power, WTW, and L and T. The internship opportunities are great as the alumni network is very strong compared to other top colleges.
Infrastructure: The hostel infrastructure at Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College (JGEC) is quite standard for a government engineering college in West Bengal. There's an overview based on typical and available information as of recent years. Generally 2 to 3 students per room in the first year, single occupancy in senior years depending on availability.
Faculty: Every professor is highly qualified and experienced. Their quality of teaching is highly unmatchable. You need not watch lectures on YouTube if you attend your classes regularly. Yes, this is true that the curriculum is still old here which is the problem in every college. The pass percentage is great. See if you just study a little before seems you will easily pass.

This college is very beautiful.
Placements: College placements are moderate even a non-core student can get an average package of 10 LPA. Core branch students get a package of 5 to 10 LPA. There are many packages from different branches but there is not a high package for average students for a flip branch. The packages vary. Placements for a government job are unpredictable but in a government college, the placement is far better than the others. We get many chances from the reputable company.
Infrastructure: In my college Jalpaiguri government engineering college there is a huge campus and I am lucky to have such an adventurous campus life there is many playgrounds at the front side there is our college building administrative building and different side of our different brunches as there is a mechanical engineering department have there own sits and 4 boys hostel and 1 girls hostel.
Faculty: I have read 8 out of 10 the relevant and comprehensive, I chose engineering because from the beginning, I have been interested in the field and dreamed of it. I see major opportunities in the engineering course. I have dreamed of core branches. There are also many private colleges, but in my rank, I got this government college, so I chose it. Our faculty members are very helpful but also harmful to us.
