B.Tech. in Agricultural Engineering - Batch of 2026

Offered by College of Agricultural Engineering and Technology, Junagadh Agricultural University

5Placements4Infrastructure3Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Package range from Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 50,000 per month.

Placements: In my course 50% of students were placed in my college. The highest package was 5 LPA. The lowest was 1 Lakh 20,000 per annum. 3 out of 61 in my batch got interned in Spreri in a paid internship. 6 seats were there, the remaining 58 got unpaid internships or training. Top roles are Engineers who design the structure of REE, SWCE, FMPE, IDE, and PFE.

Infrastructure: Facility and infrastructure of our campus are very good. A separate library for self-study. A guest house. Labs in each department are provided for whatever setup we need. An AC classroom is there with digital boards and good quality. Hostel facility is free of cost for girls. 3 girls live in a room because there are fewer rooms here. A health care centre is provided. A sports ground is also here. For girls' volleyball, athletics, chess, badminton, tennis, etc., events are also organised where one can get a national or international level championship.

Faculty: Teachers take regular classes along with practical classes. If we have doubts, we can contact them too. Teaching quality was overall okay. Course content was not that relevant, but after the 6th dean, unannounced AI and scope are being taught in our college. Also, they provide training in training centres. Semester exams were overall easy. 90% is the pass percentage.

Other: I chose this course because I was interested in plants as well as mechanization. Best thing about my course is that we are provided training in different states, so we can travel there and meet new people. My course can be improved if, in ELP, the teacher had asked for our own ideas and let us work on them. Events, fests, everything is organised by student committees.

Satisfied experience with great hostel, sports infrastructure, and relatively easy exams.

Placements: Placement opportunities on campus are very good, and large number of students often get placed. 80-90% of students are placed. Rest of them want to start something of their own or they use this knowledge in their own farm to increase their farm productivity and profitability. The highest package is 15 LPA, median package is about 8 LPA, and the lowest is around 3 LPA - 4 LPA. Top companies are IFCO, Mahindra, Redox, etc. We have to do RAWE in last year which is compulsory for everyone, similar to an internship in agriculture.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure on campus is very good. All the students get their hostel room which we have to share with our friends. All the classrooms have air conditioning and smart screens. All the lab have most of the equipment present, and they are of good quality. The food at mess is very nice because most of the mess is run by students so we can eat whatever we wish. Sport infrastructure is one of the best I have seen in the state. We have indoor stadium for kabbadi, badminton, table tennis, and also outdoor court for volleyball, basketball, and athletics.

Faculty: All teachers are very chill and helpful to the students. They are very well qualified apart from some old teachers who are unable to communicate in English language. Course curriculum is absolutely relevant to help students become industry-ready. Semester exams are very easy. Passing percentage is 95%.

Other: I was very much interested in agriculture since childhood due to my close roots with agriculture. I was always fascinated by farming. College has a very strict attendance policy. You have to maintain 75% attendance strictly. College schedule is pretty hectic.
