Remarks

Our college is known as Presidency of South. As it gives the best study experience. There was not so much political interference in our college, although there was a student union, which helped us to solve many issues. No negative comment.

Course Curriculum Overview

4

When I was a student it followed a year-based exam system. We have to give 3 exams in 3 years. But also there was a test exam conducted by the college. We must have to pass that and then we are allowed for the final exam.

Placement Experience

2

As it is a graduation college, no opportunities for placement were there. We were provided access to every scholarship. But the college didn't give us a scholarship. Some of the alumni were recruited as lecturers in our College. Like SP sir, SD mam was a student of our college.

College Events

3

1. Freshers ( every year the Freshers were welcomed, our function were arranged twice in Nazrul Mancha, once in Girish Mancha. Bangla Rock band Fossil came to our function ) 2. Yearly Sport ( in winter), a Football match between teacher and students was arranged. 3. Saraswati Puja

Fee Structure And Facilities

It is a little bit expensive as compared to other colleges like SN College, City College. And it is obvious, because our college was a semi-autonomous college, and provides best quality study experience.

Fees and Financial Aid

I did not apply for loans. But I was given a yearly scholarship of 5500 /- but some other scholarships were also available. But actually, I was unaware of that, and some of my friends got some scholarships up to 60000/ year.

Campus Life

4

We had different laboratories for different subjects and also for different streams. Like there was two labs in the physics department. One is for the Honours candidate and the other was for the Pass candidate. In winter, the sport was arranged. A big AC library, with Free WiFi, was available there.

Alumni/Alumna

Yes, Our senior alumnis were very helpful. They used to discuss various topics with us. Also, they helped us in lab work to do the work smoothly. A departmental Freshers was also arranged for our welcome.

Admission

It was then a merit-based system. I was selected in Physics Dept for my merit marks. I filled up my form and I gave preference for physics, chemistry, and math. But ultimately I was selected for the Physics course. The process of admission was very transparent.

Faculty

3.5

The faculties were really good. Our HOD was a student of IIT Kharagpur also he had some research papers, undoubtedly our faculties were the best in South Calcutta. There was a teacher named CHAPAL KUMAR CHATTERJEE, he has tremendous knowledge about physics.

Placement Experience:

People who major in my department usually opt for masters over placement not because of this college but because overall industrial or academic opportunities are better with a pg degree. Masters from this college is not recommended as i have heard so from my seniors. Some of my seniors managed to crack competitives and secure MSc seats at great places. Training and Placement cell had a good coordinator previously but now its almost non existent. Companies do come and hire Bpharm, Mpharm and MSc candidates. Packages are below average. Only Nestle pays well. But if you do well you'll eventually climb up the corportate ladder. From the time i am here i have not heard of any BSc candidate getting placed. Most go for higher studies.

Placement Experience:

The average package offered for such roles ranges between ?2–3 LPA, while the highest package offered to a BSc student is around ?4 LPA, depending on skills and specialization. Overall, around 15–20% of BSc students get placed through campus drives, and many students rely on off-campus opportunities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course is very relevant as it provides us an overall knowledge of biology and not dividing it into various sections rather giving us an insight of every aspect of biology. It includes everything such as microbiology, zoology, botany, physiology, molecular biology and so on.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Completely relevant. As the college is autonomous it has its own syllabus. Which matches with the net gate jam exam syllabus. When someone came our college for seminar they strange that we know this much. Exam are quite difficult in 2 months interval.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum was well thought out as per me but there were subjects that i found absolutely unnecessary. Subjects like history evs and clc were in no way related to my course. Coming to the main subjects Design, Printing, Photography and film and Media Training were absolutely necessary for my course and whilst the faculty for some of these subjects were really bad, some were good. It is also important to mention none of these subjects actually helped us prepare for the real world. Instead internships and freelance helped us more than these subjects could ever do. Exams were held bi monthly to keep track of what we learnt and every 6 months we had our semester exams. Overall if you want to be a media professional INTERNSHIPS AND JOBS WILL HELP YOU MORE THAN A COLLEGE WILL. I am biased on this opinion as my college didnt provide me with the correct guidance and support i needed to make it in the real world.

Placement Experience:

In case of computer science department, placement is provided at the Last year of M.sc course. Many companies like Wipro, b10x, Tata visited here. Highest package ever is three lakh per annum. 20-40% of the students got placement after completing M.Sc computer science. My plan after B.sc is to pursue MCA.

Course Curriculum Overview:

* It's all about practical knowledge, we are getting from this course and another aspect is if you wants to make your career in research or lecturer then you should go for it. *No changes required in teaching methods but if college will provide hostel facilities and campus requirement drive, then it will better for candidates.
