The Faculty, Campus Life and Junior-Senior Interaction are all very good and Nice..

Dislikes

The Infrastructure of the College can be improved a lot as it is very Old..

Course Curriculum Overview

I chose Physiology Honours because I was always very much into Physiology and Medicine.. And also Vidyasagar College is the Best College to study Physiology Honours under Calcutta University.. The Faculty:Student ratio is also quite Good and they provide one to one interaction to the student if needed.. All the Faculty are very highly qualified with the top most degree possible.. Their Teaching method is quite student friendly and Good.. They try their level best to make the students understand the concept in depth.. The Semester exams are timely conducted twice every year and the internals are also conducted at regular intervals..

Class Size: 30Course Fees: INR 7000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

The Fee Structure is quite reasonable and the cost of Study is quite less compared to the High Class education we are receiving in our College.. There is no hike in Fee Structure till now.. The College also provides all the essential information and notices regarding the various Scholarships(eg. Vivekananda Scholarship) and also helps in providing financial Aid to the needy students..

Campus Life

4.5

The Social Life in the College Campus is really very nice for the Students.. Various Fests, College Fresher's, Departmental Fests, Annual Functions are conducted throughout the year at different Venues by the College.. Various Celebrities also come to our College for the promotion of their films.. The College Library is also very Big and it contains all the necessary Book for all the Subjects.. It's very easy to Issue and return a Book using Library Card.. The Classrooms are well maintained with all the necessary things required.. Sports and Co curricular activities are also given very much importance in our College.. The College also conducts various Tournaments and competition and encourage the students to participate in them.. The College Union is also very much helpful and supportive.. They also have a Social Media Page named "Vidyan's Confession" where everyone studying in the College can put forward their opinions about the College..

Admission

The Admission Process for my College was quite easy and smooth.. It does not require any entrance exam.. The Admission process is based on the individual marks of the 12th Standard.. The application form is available in the College's official website.. The College website is student-friendly providing with all the necessary notices.. There are seats reserved for all categories..The Admission process is a little Time Consuming but okay..

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.

Good enough

Likes

The faculty members are knowledgeable and supportive. Most teachers explain concepts clearly and are approachable after class for doubts and guidance, which helps a lot during exams.
The college has a disciplined academic environment with regular classes and practical sessions. Laboratories are functional and help students understand concepts through hands-on learning.
The campus environment is calm and student-friendly. Various seminars, cultural programs, and academic activities help in overall personality development.

Dislikes

Industry exposure and internship guidance are minimal, which could be improved to make students more job-ready after graduation.
Infrastructure can be improved, especially classrooms and laboratory equipment. Some facilities feel outdated and require modernization.
Placement opportunities for BSc students are limited. The college focuses more on academics, so students need to prepare for higher studies or competitive exams on their own.

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.

I like the campus , it is quite huge and green , the canteen has both cooked and packed food available, a seperate common room for students and many sports equipment available. Several functions are arranged along with international conferences held
All the faculty members are soft spoken , knowledgeable and friendly, it is easy to find help regarding anything.
Professors are strict about their syllabus and subjects , paying proper attention to the students. Practicals classes are conducted without fail.

Dislikes

There is nothing as such that I disliked because I am a first year student so I haven't been so much involved yet , I think that the washrooms should be cleaned properly to maintain the hygiene apart from thjs everything is fine.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Subjects offered in the college as well as the minor and idc subjects are well adhered to the curriculum and future aspects. The subject combinations are apt and futuristic. It moderately prepares one for real world situations.

Likes

I like the facilities available including air conditioner, lab equipments, projector screen for slideshow, canteen and overall the campus
I also appreciate the faculties because they have studied in highly reputed institutes and undoubtedly teach the best.
I like how the college focuses not only on academics but also on co curricular. Sports, cultural functions, workshops are held frequently. It keeps the students engaged in fruitful activities

Dislikes

I do not like the multidisciplinary courses that we have to study in the first year making it little burdened for the students.

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.

Reasons to not apply for NSHM Knowledge Campus

Likes

The admission process was very smooth, the administration board is very helpful.
The library is huge and the content of books is very good
College life and fests are good but not great

Dislikes

Placements are absolutely bogus. There were almost no good placements when i passed out part of it can be blamed on covid but mostly the college was largely at fault
Faculty was not upto the mark in regards to the hefty college fees we were charged
Even during covid online classes we were charged full fee which is again absolutely horrendous

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.

We are having highly qualified faculties having practical exposure and they are friendly guide to us as well

Dislikes

Our college doesn't provide hostel facilities
Our college doesn't provide campus requirement drive

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.
