Which is better, IIEST Shibpur or Jadavpur University CSE placements?
Jadavpur University and IIEST Shibpur are both well-known institutes in the country. I have some friends at both institutes. Based on what I heard from them, I will say for CSE, Jadavpur will be a better choice.
Jadavpur is considered as the best institute in all of West Bengal when it comes to engineering especially CSE. Jadavpur is known to be the pioneer of CSE in India along with ISI and therefore had a head start. Jadavpur University has a better record of quality of education and the opportunities it provides to the students.
That doesn’t necessarily mean that IIEST is not a good option. IIEST is also a very reputed institution in our country and a pioneer in some engineering courses and research fields. You can certainly keep IIEST as your second option after JU.
Here is a brief outline of the CSE course offered by the institutions.

Which should I prefer Jadavpur University IT or NIT Durgapur CSE?
Comparing Jadavpur University and NIT Durgapur is illogical and the same as comparing oranges and apples. Both the colleges have their unique strengths and weaknesses. Consider the following points becoming making the decision
- If you value quality education over brand value and NIT Tag, then choose Jadavpur.
- Both colleges are at a similar level in terms of placements, faculties, and academics. In fact, the companies visiting for placements are also almost the same.
- Jadavpur University does not have provision for in-campus hostel facilities. This might be a major issue for some
So if you are ready to stay outside the campus and have no interest in the NIT tag then choose Jadavpur but if you want a NIT degree then choose NIT Durgapur.
Which is better for a BSc in Geology Jadavpur University or Presidency University Kolkata?
For a BSc in Geography, Jadavpur University is a better option compared to Presiency Unversity Kolkata. JU has a great geography faculty and an active research culture. You will get the required support and resources needed to pursue any research project you are interested in. JU will offer better career opportunities in this field.
Which should I choose IIEST Shibpur or Jadavpur University for CSE?
IIEST Shibpur and Jadavpur University both are quite reputed universities. Over the past few years, the former has improved a lot too. However, choosing JU for your CSE degree will be better. Also, you should note that IIEST offers integrated M.Tech courses.
Although IIEST Shibpur is quite reputed, its placement record is not comparable to that of JU. In the recent placement drive at JU, the placement average was 100%. The average CTC offered at the campus was 19 LPA. Apart from the placement, there are also great research opportunities at JU.
The transformation of IIEST from BESU, has been quite effective. With time, IIEST can even become better than JU. However, as of now, JU is the better alternative.

Which among these is the better university for BBA - Jadavpur University, Calcutta University or Maulana Abul Kalam Azad University of Technology?
If you are considering joining JU then go for either JD Birla or Institute of Business Management. Their BHA program is one of the best in the country. However, JU has a bit of political influence so that might affect your learning experience. That being said, MAKAUT BBA seems to be the best option for you. Their curriculum and job opportunities are top notch and the institute does not have any kind of political affiliations.
I will not suggest you join CU unless you are getting Goenka or Scottish. From what I have heard, the university has a very tough grading system. This might affect your job opportunities so consider this once before joining.
