Shiksha All Time Q&A

To my surprise, a large number of core companies came to the campus which is shocking because usually this is not seen in any other college you're almost 50% of the students in every batch is placed in corporate IT companies. The core companies which visited the campus during the placement season offer packages of nothing less than 12 Lacs per annum and large number of students are also offered foreign training opportunities which is something really big for an electrical engineering student. The placement in other branches like mechanical was even better than and comparison to electrical engineering branch which has more number of core companies visiting for recruitment.

Chemical engineering deals with the design, development of processes and operation of machines and plants through which the physical or chemical state of materials undergo various changes. Jadavpur university is among top 10 colleges of India, so definitely the placements for every branch is top notch there. Here are some of the insights of the college. Intake: 120 (chemical)

It ranks 9 in the list of top engineering colleges of India. It provides the much needed skill that is hands on experience and practical knowledge of how to use different kinds of chemical and they also research about them. In labs equipped with many chemicals. It is known for its great infrastructure faculty members with the knowledge and much-needed experience and better facilities like Wi-Fi, sports complex and labs with better equipment and machines. It offers many courses out of which Chemical engineering is one of the course in which it offers 60 seats to the students. There companies like that comes for the placement of Chemical engineering are Reliance, Vedanta, Dr. Reddy's, Trident limited, ITC, HUL, Va Tech Wabag, Orient Cement, etc. Are some of the core companies that provides the salary of about in the range of about 9- 15 Lacs per annum.

The placement in our college has been good even during the worst of market times. Coming to the average package and the highest one, the average package is around 3.5 Lacs and the highest package last year offered was 27 Lacs by Amazon. We have many companies visiting our campus from Wipro, Infosys, TCS, Deloitte, etc. The placements are better in CSE as compared to others. The placements are decent where each and every student is placed. Also in computer Science percentage offers made are sometimes as high as 200%. Companies like Goldman Sachs, Deloitte amazon visit the campus. Also a lot of startups show up for hiring students so for a person who wants opportunities on his plate, startups are a way to go here.

(a) By appearing in CDS exam conducted by UPSC. CDS entry consists of written exam conducted by the UPSC, followed by conduct of the SSB interview, medical test by Indian Navy (naval candidates only) and final preparation of merit list by UPSC. The appointment letter is issued by IHQ MoD/DMPR. The training of officers selected through this entry commences in the month of Jan/Jul and the advertisement is published in Nov/Jul. (b) University Entry Scheme conducted by three services Army, Navy and Indian Air force in pre final year of Engineering. (c) Direct Permanent Commission and Short Service Commission by appearing in SSB against open advertisement of three services Army, Navy and Indian Air force in final year or completion of engineering degree. The Direct entries are controlled by each service HQ and cater for both Permanent Commission (PC) and Short Service Commission (SSC). Advertisements calling for application from eligible candidates for such entries are published in the leading newspapers and Employment News twice in a year between Feb to May and Aug to Nov. The applications are received and candidates are shortlisted for SSB based on cut off decided by MoD.

Subjects wise preparation can be done like:
1. Physics: Go through NCERT textbooks and be very clear with your basics and important concepts, you would definitely find questions based on these in BITSAT. For numerical solving, you can use a book by H. C. Verma. Even if you solve the first 40%-50% of unsolved exercises, you will make it.
2. Chemistry: Again what I would say is, go through NCERT textbooks and be very clear with your basics and important concepts. Here in chemistry, you would definitely find questions in BITSAT. Directly based on some facts and concepts as given in NCERT books.
3. Mathematics: Prepare an objective mathematics book by Arihant Publication for maths. Practice a lot this subject daily. Apart from these three traditional subjects, you also need to prepare for English and aptitude. You need to speed up your question-solving skills. If you are left with some part before a month, just leave it and move on to the revision and mock tests.

It gets down to three crucial points. (I am assuming that the person carrying on this voyage has already cleared his/her Mains exam and knows all the rudiments of all the topics).
1. Chemistry is the key to get a good score. It needs lesser effort compared to the other two subjects and it is very scoring. So one must study the chemistry NCERT book very meticulously, atleast twice in the 30 days.
2. Attempt previous year IIT-JEE question papers and try to do atleast 1 paper in every two days (or maybe a paper every day). Starting from the latest paper and moving backwards. Bingo, at the end of a month you have solved 15 year's question papers (atleast).
3. The most important part while attempting point number 2 is scrutinizing your test and checking for the scope of improvement. If you're not so good at mechanics or calculus, you should probably give more time to it and keep revising these areas to score well.

A very good question indeed. In the hierarchy of colleges, IITs are followed by NITs and IIITs. This is not rigid but based on the experience of past many years. As one can expect, some students of CS/IT branches can expect astronomical salaries but then these are to be treated as exceptions. As per the recent figures released by IIT Mumbai, average package of students placed so far was declared as 11 LPA. Considering this, it is safe to assume that minimum package must be around 7-8 LPA. Students from NITs too get similar packages and maybe a bit lower in range of 5-7LPA. IIITs have managed to get average packages of 5 LPA, but here there are no low paying branches and hence minimum package should be around Rs.4 LPA.
