B.E. in Chemical Engineering - Batch of 2029

4.6

4Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

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.

Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com. Hons.) - Batch of 2029

Offered by J.D Birla Institute (JDBI)

4Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Review of J.D Birla Institute (JDBI).

Placements: I’m just a fresher in my college, so I really don’t know about the placements, but I’ve heard the placements are pretty good and the internship process is very detailed. It’s made compulsory for us to have an internship in the third year of college, and it’s a part of the course itself.

Infrastructure: We have good classrooms, a canteen, labs, a library, and even the college is undergoing renovation, providing us with greater facilities and a more comfortable infrastructure. We have AC classrooms and comfortable seating arrangements. The canteen food is good, and the library has a vast range of books with borrowing facilities.

Faculty: The curriculum is really good in my college, with the detailed academic calendar being provided beforehand, and the faculty is really helpful with everything. What we need, what we want, and our issues are heard here. The semester exams are a mix of everything, being easy to difficult, making it a good exam for all types of students. The exam papers are exactly like what we’re prepared for.

Other: I chose B.Com as a course and specifically in JDBI because it? S a well known college and it? S been ranked in a good position I want to pursue a professional degree and B.Com course here in this college provides flexible timings being a morning batch making it very easy for students like us .

5Placements3Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

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.

Infrastructure: Labs are well-maintained and have the necessary facilities for the course. From 2025 onwards, a new syllabus is being introduced which removes irrelevant courses in the first year that have been a part of the course for many years, replacing them with necessary subjects.

Faculty: Professors are highly qualified, with most of them having high research indices indicating their great knowledge. Most of them have completed their PhDs and postdocs from reputed colleges. The course's new curriculum is highly relevant and makes the students industry-ready. Semester exams are not an ordeal if one pays attention to the classes when they are being taught.
