Jadavpur University Kolkata: 3 Answered Questions

What is the fee structure of Jadavpur University B Tech?

Pankaj Roy ChowdhuryECE at Jadavpur University (2020)

Pursuing a course at Jadavpur University is quite affordable, as opposed to other universities. It is incredible to believe that a university that ranks among the top 15 engineering colleges of India, costs less than most universities around the nation. 

Here is a brief highlight of different fees in JU. 

  • Tuition fees: Rs. 2400 per year
  • Refundable Caution Deposit: Rs 2500 (One time)
  • Hostel fees: Rs. 1000 per month (It includes different kinds of vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals as well)
  • Examination fees: Rs. 60 to Rs. 70 per semester
  • Library Fine (if a book is submitted late): 6 Paisa per day for some books and 50 Paisa per day for others.

This was the typical fee structure followed a few years back. Recently, there can be a 5% - 10% increment regarding the same. As per the recent update, the 1st year course fee for B.Tech at JU is 2,400. You can evaluate the expenditure to be around 1 lakh for the entire B.Tech course, incorporating the tuition fees, study materials, hostel fees, mess fees, alongside other miscellaneous expenses.

On the other hand, JU has a great placement record. A typical student from the CSE department can receive an average salary package of about INR 19 LPA, while it is INR 8 LPA for departments of ECE, EEE, and IT. Lastly, the average salary package is INR 6 LPA for departments concerning Mechanical, Civil, Chemical, Metallurgy, Construction, and Production.

Which is better between IIT Patna and Jadavpur University for an equivalent branch?

Tezal Dahiya

I have seen many students prefer JU to new IITs because of the experience and legacy it holds in contrast to recently established IITs. None of these students regret their decision of choosing JU over IIT. 

JU has the upper hand in terms of both placements and the quality of research work here. In fact, top NITs, BITS, JU, DTU, NSIT, IIITs, and such institutes are all better options than most of the newer IITs. These institutes have good credibility owing to their strong alumni network thus providing better opportunities. Those who prefer to stay on the safe side give more preference to these institutes than newer IITs.

The new IITs are expected to reach heights in the future and only then will you be able to benefit from their IIT tag. As of now, they lack credibility and opportunities. 

Ultimately, it’s your call to make because you can even avail the best opportunities through minimal resources.

Which is better for competitive programming: Jadavpur University or IIEST, Shibpur?

Aditya BoseStudied at Indian Institute of Engineering Science and Technology, Shibpur

Any college can be good for competitive programming. It all relies on you to educate yourself, to learn new strategies, and to spend hours coding. 

  • Anudeep Nekkanti is one such example. He was recruited by Google and qualified for ACM ICPC world finals. If you look at the name of his college, it's not one of those elite ones. 
  • There was no competitive programming pattern in BESU/IIEST until recently. But many students have taken competitive programming platforms such as Codechef and HackerRank over the last few years.
  • You can search the Codechef Rating System site to verify it for yourself. You get a college-wise database of the number of students actively engaged in competitive coding and their results using this platform.

Lastly, don't support the myth that the only way to prove yourself as a coder is competitive programming. There are other coding fields as well. In this sense, do not consider that there was no "real coder" in IIEST because there was no competitive coding pattern previously in IIEST (BESU back then). 

Some of the alumni of the institute are working in top companies in India and overseas and have never been interested in competitive coding.
