College Infrastructure

Besides the central library at the main campus, there are departmental libraries for each department. The campuses provide full wifi coverage, 24*7. There are huge well maintained sports grounds and an Open Air Theatre for hosting fests and cultural programmes. the university provides adequate hostel facilities for students coming from very long distances and multiple canteens spread across different parts of the campus provide high quality meals for students.

Jadavpur University is a dream come true.

The campus has every necessary infrastructure. Being an ivory level university, it has excellent labs and library. With more than 25 building, each department gets adequate space to have all the required facilities.

It's been a good experience so far.

College Infrastructure

The biggest problem with majority of the current infrastructure is that it's old, with exceptions. Some of it is under renovation. The walls are preoccupied with political posters which I find very problematic. In some parts of the corridor, smoking is sometimes evident which is a problem not often considered. The living spaces are partly clean, partly not. Cleanliness is definitely an issue in some parts of the campus. The food is good and very hygienic.
