    Jadavpur University has a legacy of more than a century.
    Placements: Placements in the department are among the best in the state and region after IIT KGP. Usually, the average placement percentage for interested students stays above 85–90%, which is good considering this is a core department. The average package in recent years is around 7–11 LPA and varies greatly depending on peer quality. Core packages include most chemical engineering core companies like Vedanta, pharmaceutical companies, Exide, and others, along with PSUs and various other firms. On average, core packages are around 6–9 LPA. Some companies offer 12+ LPA, and PSU salaries are higher. Non-core packages are around 10–14 LPA.
    Infrastructure: The department is well-equipped with all kinds of labs and necessary teaching resources. As I am not very familiar with the facilities offered by IITs and NITs, I would rate mine as 4/5. This department was the first in Asia and receives a lot of funds and grants from alumni and organizations. You will learn a lot if you join JU Chemical. About the hostels, UG1 hostels are well-maintained and good. Wi-Fi is available, and rooms are big enough for 2–3 people. As I am not a hosteller, this is all I can share.
    Faculty: Faculty members are a mixed bag. Some are fantastic, some are okay, and some are not very good. They are all highly qualified in their fields, with degrees from IITs, foreign universities, and most are Ph.D. holders with published research work. The course curriculum is almost as good as that of the older IITs, and I can vouch for that. You will gain the required knowledge and industry exposure when you actually work in the field. Semester exams can be rated as moderately difficult to difficult in some cases, which is very subjective.
    Other: I chose this because it was my best option for my rank (GMR-1379, General) and because I was flexible about the course, it does not bother me. I am genuinely interested in learning chemical engineering. About the fests and campus life, it is probably one of the best in the region and certainly in the state. The culture is very vibrant, and many events take place regularly around the campus. As long as you keep working hard, you can enjoy life here, land a good job, and get into quality research according to your calibre. JU is a very good university.

    Jadavpur University food technology course summary and college life idea.
    Placements: About 60% of students got placed in core companies. The highest package is 14 LPA, the lowest package is 2-3 LPA, and the average is about 5-6 LPA offered in our course. Amul, Winkies, and ITC are the top recruiting companies. A solid 80% students got internship opportunities every year.
    Infrastructure: Free Wi-Fi is available on the whole campus. There are a total of 9 canteens, and each hostel has its own separate cooking area. Table tennis, cricket, and football are the most popular sports. The sports culture and fests are the most lovable part of Jadavpur University.
    Faculty: Teachers are well qualified. They are helpful. Exams are tough, and lab faculty members are above average. Minimum 60% marks are required for passing the semester. Each department has its own different set of subjects with different faculty members and a different environment.
    Other: This course is good, especially for those candidates who like Biology. Biology and Chemistry are the main subjects in this course. Maths and Physics are not that applicable.

    College with the best return on investment.
    Placements: The exact details for placement drive for 2025 batch are yet to be released. For 2024, the median and average were near 20 LPA, with almost every top company coming for on-campus placement. This year (2025), the placement drive has been immensely successful. Placement percentage is over 90%, with the highest package being as high as 1.4 crore offered by Rubrik. Top companies like Google, Oracle, Sprinklr, and DE Shaw offered full-time roles. Many banking companies like Wells Fargo, ICICI Bank, and Deutsche also visit the campus for full-time roles. On-campus internship drive also takes place.
    Infrastructure: Being a state university, the institute is heavily underfunded. As a result, the infrastructure is not upto the mark in comparison to IITs and NITs. Though a good amount of research does take place. Hostel specifically is not of great quality, but that is justified by its ultra-cheap rent of Rs 30 per month.
    Faculty: Faculty members are well qualified. Some of them have multiple PhDs. Teaching quality is fair enough, though it varies from teacher to teacher. The course curriculum is restructured starting from the 2025-2029 batch to meet the industry standards and make it relevant. The questions in semester exams are easier in comparison to IITs, but are much lengthier. Exams are of 100 marks with a time limit of 3 hours.
    Other: Events are great and something or the other is always happening around on the campus with so many clubs and societies. Being a university, Arts and Science faculty students are also present thus diversifying the crowd.

    Students who have started late for the WB JECA exam can make a 6-month plan where in the first three months they have to focus on revising the syllabus studied in BCA. In the next two months’ focus on solving questions of WB JECA and analyzing the mistakes being made, if any. The last one month should be focused on solving mock tests and WB JECA previous year question papers.
