Remarks

I am proud of my college. The faculty, the management, the quality of students were something.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

It was under Calcutta University and now it is not.There is no placement cell as such.The faculty is really good. After we had passed out the college got affiliated with WBUT. I got many good friends and followed in a good career like my friends. The course is as per CU standards and very rich and knowledge oriented.

Class Size: 35Course Fees: INR 900 per year

Placement Experience

The was no placement cell as such during my times.However, after I passed out a placement cell has been formed, thereby helping the students in the right manner.

College Events

4.5

Dhun, the annual fest organized in every December. Many Bengaki popular friends used to perform in our college fest. The food stalls that were available were really awesome and outstanding. The fest was also popular amongst other colleges and people from different colleges used to come and perform with us.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Very feasible, government college.The fees were as per govt standards. There are no additional fees that have to be paid in order to secure admission. I used to pay 75 rupees per month only for my course. The course for the science subjects was a bit more than kine but feasible too.

Fees and Financial Aid

I did not have to avail any educational loan. The college did not used to offer any scholarship when I was a student.

Campus Life

The Campus is huge.Thec teacher student ratio was also meaningful and something to talk about. The science laborstories were noteworthy. The Cultural club was really superb. The cultural diversity is enormous and people were accepted irrespective of caste, creed, gender,etc.

Hostel Facilities

There was no hostel accommodation as such. All students were day scholars. The college did not have provision for hostel. The PGs nearby my college wre cheap too, it was around 3000 per month including three times food.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Our seniors were very helpful and protective. During our exams they used to help us like anything and till date I'm still in touch with them.

Admission

Liked English from childhood days.One of the best colleges it was under C.U. Got admission in the 1st merit list in July 2006.Did not have to choose or collect forms apart from this college.Its near my home too. So did not think of leaving this opportunity of reading in this college.

Faculty

The faculty is really worth mentioning. All the teachers were government professionals and gazzeted officers as per govt rules. The teachers used to explain the matter or each paper in a detailed manner and the lectures provided are something are etched in my minds.

My Experience at Jaipuria to summed it up.

Likes

Quality education and an academically enriching environment. Most importantly, well- versed professors.
Extra- curriculum activities, along with an active sports cell and NCC, and usually various opportunities to participate in Inter-College Competitions.
Well maintained gym with separate timings for girls and boys. The canteen offers a wide variety of foods at an affordable price.

Dislikes

For my department, there was no educational excursion.
Negligence internship opportunities are available for my course.
Only some placement opportunities are available, and companies like TCS and Wipro came up for campus placement.

Course Curriculum Overview:

My passion and a bit of curiosity in International Relations led me to choose this course. The curriculum, in fact, prepared me well for further academic pursuits. For improvement, educational excursions and internship opportunities should be made available. The exam is held twice a year on semester basis, with papers set at a moderate to difficult level.

A balanced view of campus life and learning

Likes

The English department has experienced and supportive teachers. Most professors explain concepts clearly and encourage discussions, close reading and critical thinking.
The course is very affordable, especially compared to private colleges. With scholarships, it becomes accessible for students from middle and lower income backgrounds.
The college has a friendly and diverse student crowd. The girls to boys ratio is balanced with slightly more female students, which creates a comfortable learning atmosphere.

Dislikes

The infrastructure needs improvement. Classrooms and common areas could be better maintained and modern facilities are limited.
There are very few placement opportunities for arts students.
Although some academic events take place, extracurricular activities and active student societies could be improved for better campus life.

Placement Experience:

There are limited on campus placement opportunities here, especially for Arts and Eng Hons students. Most students focus on higher studies, competitive exams or off campus opportunities after graduation. The college provides basic guidance through teachers but formal placement drives are rare.

Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira: A Life Changing Experience

Likes

The college has an ideal atmosphere for studying and the hostel accommodation allowed for close bonding with seniors who helped us out in studies as well as personal matters. The teachers are extremely talented and treated us with care and respect.
It is an all boys college and it is without any doubt a ragging-free campus. There is anti-ragging cell as well as student councelling cell available on the campus to help out with these issues.
The experience of hostel life and the close sense of community that is formed during my stay has been instrumental in my growth and the strict implementation of discipline in our daily lives enriched me and changed my life for the better.

Dislikes

The administration is not always the best. Applications, forms, seminars and event permits all required a long time to get approved by the authorities as most of the time it meant compromising our strict schedule as it is a residential college.
The average food quality in the mess could be better. Again it is not always the best but for the most part it is decent.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum provides a comprehensive retrospective of literature from the Old English period to Modern period, while also including English works by Indian authors to demonstrate the diversity and evolution of English literature over the years. The current curriculum I believe requires more seminars and lectures from guest faculties on contemporary research and topics.

The only improvements I would like to note that to improve the toilet facilities and placement opportunities.

College is really close to railway station (2.2 km from Bidhannagar Junction), Low cost of fees, Good academics, Spacious, Green, Quiet environment ideal for studying. Only bad thing(according to my opinion) is the teachers are really strict. We can't bunk classes. We enter the college 10. 15 AM and leave at 4. 15PM. Sometimes this can be frustrating....Read More
