Pros: Good student teacher ratio.Has a peaceful campus.Renowned professors.Fast review system.Has the option of PhD.Cons: Some of the Departments have lack professors.This University doesn't have commerce departments.

Course Curriculum Overview

The student teacher ratio is something which makes this University stand out. Professors are generally very friendly and down to earth, though some of the Departments have lack of teachers. All of the faculties of Geography Department have more than 10 to 20 years of teaching experiences.The teaching method is mainly lecture method but uses projector or smart classes too for better understanding. Professors provide study materials after each and every class.Exams are generally on time and results and reviews are also very fast. Exam difficulty level is moderate to high, but not that much difficult for students who focus on class lectures.

Class Size: 50Course Fees: INR 7500 per year

Placement Experience

Generally Geography department has no placement options available in the dept. After completion of course one can go for B. Ed or PhD. After masters students can choose b ed for school teaching jobs, or opt phd for research.

Campus Life

4.5

Cultural environment is something which makes this University stand out from others. Teachers' day, freshers welcome, farewell, cricket football tournaments are very common in the Departments. Students can participate in NSS or NCC or sports by choice. Central library of Visva-Bharati has free wifi connection and a lot of collection of competitive exams magazines and newspapers as well along with text books.

There is a good amount of boys and girls hostel within the campus. Generally the rooms are 2 to 3 seater. Each room is provided with a ceiling fan and tube light and one charging point. Hostel is given on the basis of distance and merit. Hostel rent is minimal, i.e 450 for general candidates and its free for reserved category students. Each hostel has mess options or meal options. This is decided by the catering staffs who is given the tenders of food. All the hostel are within the campus with high security.

NOT RECOMMENDED

Likes

Campus is nice. There's greenery and all
SOME of the faculties are really good and those said teachers will actually look out for you and care
Mentors are appointed for each students who are responsible for their final year project, publications and LORs. If you are lucky, you'll get a good mentor.

Dislikes

Classrooms are less compared to the number of students. Students have to wander around the building after each classes to find seats. Classrooms are very dirty
There's literally NOTHING in the labs. Experiments take way long to prepare and perform because reagents and equipments are never available.
Hardly a 2 week summer break (because of MAKAUT). Students cannot even apply to good internships because no lab would take in external students in july or august.

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.

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.

Buliding a strong Foundation for higher studies and PSC preparation

Dislikes

Classrooms are sometimes overcrowded, the library has limited updated resources.
Placement support is minimal for courses like History.
There is limited digital access - poor wi-fi Connectivity and lack of e-library facilities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is relevant and theory-rich, ideal for further academic pursuits like UPSC and PSC. I chose History Honours for its analytical depth. Exams are semester-based, moderate tough. Teaching can improve with more discussions and digital learning tools.
