The Heritage Academy Kolkata, BA, Alankar-Jyotish Karamkand

Reviewed on Oct 17, 2020

Remarks

I wanted to take admission in a college where I could learn almost everything about Media, an apparent The Heritage Academy provides one of the best facilities for the course. The faculties, and the studio are fantastic here. So I opted for this college.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course is good. It provides with the ideas of Journalism, Mass Communication, Photography, Designing (on Photoshop), Video Editing, Film Making, Marketing and Public Relations and a ton load of outdoor activities. The course is more about practical work then theory, thus it is easier to score more in theory than in practical. One of those better things about this course is it based on practical knowledge, one can't survive here if he/she mugs-up and goes without understanding the concept(s) and practical application(s). The faculties are good. Not as great as the hype. But one will get sufficient knowledge as the guest faculties are fantastic here. And one can seek for knowledge if he/she wants, and should if you ask for my opinion.

Class Size: 30Course Fees: INR 56000 per year

Placement Experience

To be honest, the job opportunities are pretty low, and one has to opt for specialisation after completing the course. Though, you can have expectations for a decent internship from the college.

College Events

Since last one and half year the college has organised a few events. Which includes all the major days like Rabindra Jayanti, Teacher's Day, etc. Other then that, we have 2 marque events in AdAdda which is basically where we come up with ideas for pitching and advertising original ideas for real brands, we call up big businessmen who share their experiences. And we have a college fest which unfortunately couldn't happen this year due to the pandemic.

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.

One of the things i liked the most was the quality of lecture given by the professors
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.

The campus is big and full of greenery with the vibrant feel of nature.
The students of the same batch are friendly and helpful.
The teacher's are friendly and helpful. They do provide helpful recommendations for the betterment of your future.

Dislikes

The seniors are overly harsh when it comes to 1st year.
The infrastructure could be worked on. The college lacks renovation.
The hostel does require everyday cleaning and renovation as well as the campus.

Placement Experience:

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.

A Great Learning Experience with a Vibrant Campus Life

I chose The Heritage Academy for its structured BCA program, experienced Faculty, and good infrastructure at an affordable cost. Its location within the city was also a key factor. ai applied to Techno India, Iem and Amity Kolkata - Techno India had mixed reviews and was slightly expensive - IEM highly competitive with strict cutoffs - Amity Kolkata the fee structure was too high Considering affordability and quality education, Heritage Academy was the best choice. Admission process:- - 12th pass with Mathematics/Computer science as a subject - Admission is based on CET score, but direct admission is also available for some seats - no fix cutoff, but 60% + student preference...Read More

Then through internet I found out heritage is one the best colleges in bengal for studying the BCA. The admission criteria of Heritage is quite simple, you need a minimum marks of 60 percentage in your 10th and 12th and you have to be eligible for their entrance exam CET. Overall the admission process is very smooth....Read More
