Remarks

Positive remarks only. This college had it all and didn? once disappoint me. I highly recommend this college if anyone wants to go into the film making world. As I can assure you that it is a very good college.

Course Curriculum Overview

The structure of the course is a very detailed structure. It is laid out properly just enough for the students to understand. The exams are conducted in a very strict manner. Enough study holidays are given so that we can put in more efforts to study and it is held in every semester.

Placement Experience

The placements are very good. The companies that come are good and reputable companies. I know a lot of my friends who are working as camera men and cinematography. I got a job with one of the famous directors in india after I was thoroughly interviewed.

College Events

The college celebrates various fests and conducts a lot of activities in the college. They do this so that the students can get more experience and discover their hidden talents. It is a good thing that the college does.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is a bit high. But that is what you have to expect especially when you plan on taking an admission in a film institute. I had to pay 1.8 lakhs per annum. Which is quite a lot but they offer quality education.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes it does offer scholarships to students just like other colleges. They select 12 meritorious students and they can avail the scholarships. The students wishing to get scholarships should fill in a form which then determines according to their academics if they will get scholarship or no.

Campus Life

There are a lot of extra curricular activities held in school. It is done to keep the students interested and give them a break from studying and for them to have a little fun. There are a few club activities.

Hostel Facilities

I had actually lived in a pg with one of my other friend. As we felt that pgs were not that costly and plus they were pretty cost efficient and we had our privacy. We paid 8,000 per month along with mess which was 1800.

Alumni/Alumna

I came across a few of my seniors who did study in that school and currently we are all in good positions. I can also proudly tell that I am also a notable alumni of this college. I feel happy everytime I mention it.

Admission

I had to fill out a form first. I was a little confused as there were so many interesting courses. The college offers a wide range of interesting courses related to the film industry. I had to fill out a form and then I had to write an exam called as the JET.

Faculty

4.5

The faculty is very experienced and is there with us through everything. They are very enthusiastic to teach us and impart us with knowledge. Their teaching techniques are very unique and interesting.

Fixed timetable Classes, regular assessment and class test
The professors are very qualified and their teaching style is excellent.
A lot of books are available in the main library as well as in the department library

Course Curriculum Overview:

The syllabus and curriculum of Calcutta University is aligned with other entrance examination (eg.IIT JAM, JEST, TIFR, GATE etc.) Specially for the Physics BSc course. And the syllabus is updated Artificial intelligence bacis, Python Advance level is in syllabus, it's completed in college. Point to be Noted - The time given to prepare for the exam is sometimes ample but sometimes it is very less. So we have to prepare syllabus in time which is little bit frustrating.

The campus is very spacious the college has every facility
A fully equipted studio and lab for Journalism students

Dislikes

Things i disliked was the most has to be the locality the college is really nice but the locality is a bit shady

Course Curriculum Overview:

I always wanted to take up Journalism as a career and the thing which caught my attention in this college is that they have a fully equipted studio room and other colleges may have one but the students even publish there own news report here it prepars us very well for the real world

Likes

Supportive Faculty - The professors are highly qualified, approachable and always willing to help students
Free wifi support - There are free wifi support for both student and faculty
Fee Structure - It is very affordable and low compared to other colleges in the region

Dislikes

Placement support is below average, and most studnets have to apply for off campus jobs independently, which is really pathetic in the era of ai where getting a job as a fresher is so difficult
There is no dedicated support or placment cell initiative to help studnets land meaningful summer internships or any kind of internships

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements starting from the 7th semester. For placement drives, we have to visit the main campus, Techno Main Salt Lake (TMSL). Since students from other Techno India campuses and branches also participate, the competition is extremely high. In the 2025–2026 academic year, fewer companies visited. Only two companies, Dronahost and WishCare, visited our specific campus directly. The remaining drives—mostly service-based companies like TCS and EY, along with a few startups—were conducted at the main campus. The remaining drives mostly service based companies like TCS, EY etc and quite a few startups has visited to main campus. The package they offered mostly in between 3.5lpa - 6 lpa. Furthermore the selection process of those startups is quite rigorous often consisting of upto 5 rounds of interview, two technical rounds with two technical interviews, and HR round My plans after getting the degree is either pursue an MBA or preparing for govt jobs

Campus life: Hype vs Truth

Likes

The discipline is followed very strictly.Also you have access to library which is good,teachers are helpful and no ragging policy which is strictly followed and has a decent environment.
Thery conduct seminars which encourages students.Many faculty members are knowledgeable experienced in their respective subjects and helpful willing to solve doubts beyond the classroom also.
The college has decent infrastucture including classrooms,labs and library .

Dislikes

While the curriculum is decent ,it lacks sufficeint practical implementation.More hands on projects,real world application and industry exposure would improve learning significantly.
Campus life can sometimes fell limited in terms of active student interaction.Opportunites for clubs,networking and collaborative activities could be improved.
The college comes under St tHomas School so the campus is not great it is compact and has a canteen.

Placement Experience:

I heard it from seniors that before lockdown it was pretty decent but after lockdown the company visits are not that much comapred to before lockdown.Cognizent, Accenture, Mindtree, PQ360 which is a startup company of our senior alumni etc. visits.

I don't know much about this but I guess from the sixth semester the students are eligible for campus placements. This year a student from AEIE got a package of 11.2 lacs per annum and the average is around 4 lacs per annum.

The Framework is said to be great, with well equipped classroom and simply get to the libraries.
The offices at this college are great. In any case, these changes depending on the quality of the companies going by the college and the victory of the internship changes by the internship.
Understudies appreciate the campus life and flexibility to associate with others understudies. However, there are few impediments such as the division of floors between senior and junior. College life is nice and could be an inviting place for others

Dislikes

The college doesn't have lodging, and understudies must organize their settlement locally.
The college doesn't have a big field to play like any other big college

Placement Experience:

In Syamaprasad College placements and internships are given to the final year students. And the companies that offer placements are Accenture, Deloitte, KPMG, etc. The highest package goes up to 20-24 lakhs and the average package goes to 6-8 lakhs. 70-80% of students get their placement in my college. At that time I planned to get the degree and apply to a multinational company with a high salary package with company facilities.
