Admission into the course is determined through the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) rank, followed by a GDAT examination. Successful candidates attend an orientation program at Jadavpur and Shibpur, with a nominal orientation fee of Rs. 5000, which is adjusted with the overall course fee. The program spans 5 years and includes 10 semesters. The faculty brings a balanced mix of experience, providing thorough industry insights with a favorable student-to-faculty ratio. Academic assessments include separate theory and practical exams each semester. Theory subjects involve two class tests contributing to a 100-mark semester exam. The overall fee for the architecture course is nominal due to government support, with an initial admission fee structure totaling Rs. 12000 over five years. For other courses, the fee is Rs. 710 for the first two years and approximately Rs. 3500 per year for the latter two years. Students can access full-freeship and half-freeship scholarships based on financial need, while merit-based scholarships from the alumni society amount to Rs. 25000. The fee structure is uniform across castes, with no management quota. Placement opportunities are ample, with notable companies such as Apple, Samsung, Facebook, and Google participating in campus recruitments. Approximately 70 to 80 percent of students secure placements, eligible from their last semester. Internship opportunities are also available, with support provided for those struggling to find positions. Students can engage in training with industry professionals, private firms, or government design firms, and some professors offer pre-PhD training with stipends.
