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.

Faculty is decent, placement is better than most government colleges, and the college area is big.

Placements: Decent placement with core branches, getting nearly 100% placement. Non-core branches may get slightly less placement, but the package is good. Electrical usually gets 100% placement. The placement cell is good and takes aptitude tests very often. The alumni also refer students.

Our college(JGEC) is really good.

Placements: Jalpaiguri government engineering college placement is really good, as 90% were placed. Basically, the electrical engineering branch offers more placement and a good package offered by LNT, ADANI, etc. Perhaps another branch, such as civil, mechanical, CSE, or ECE, is a good placement. 70 % students got an internship opportunity offered by NTPC, BHEL, etc.

Satisfied because of the placement in 2025.

Placements: Placements in this college are above average. The most important part is the placement in the core domain (EE, ME, CE) outperforms the non-core department for the 2025 batch. Almost 90% students from my course got placed in reputed companies like L&T, Reliance, MN Dastur, Woods, TEECL, etc. The highest package of 12 LPA was offered by BEL (A PSU under Ministry Of Defence) and the lowest package of 4.8 LPA is offered by ASAHI Glass. Internship record for my batch is also very good with many stude...
