Remarks

Positives-Helpful and cooperative environment amongst your fellow classmates,seniors and faculty members. Class notes do help a lot in the semester exams to score good marks. Negatives-Too many assignments to complete!

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The course carries a total of about 40 subjects,divided into 8 semesters in the duration of 4 years.There are 2 internal exams,practical exams and lab-vivas and semester papers for each subject in each semester.

Placement Experience

Yes,the placement cell is moderately well in our college and students get job opportunities from various companies like Cognizant,Wipro,TCS,Accenture,etc via on-campussing as well as pool campussing.Our college provides internship from internshala and interested students become interns of some company or the other.As of August 2019,Our college is Ranked 5 (State) amongst interships via internshala.

4.5

The academic session begins with the orientation programmme followed by the the Teachers Day celebrations.Next,we have our grand 'Utkarsha',our cultural fest and a mega inter-college technical fest,namely 'TechHetc' where several college showcase their talents in technical fields.

Fee Structure And Facilities

As a private engineering college,the fee structure of our college is feasible.It is around 42000 per semester.Also,our college provides scholarships and discounts to economically backward students to cooperate with their conditions.

Fees and Financial Aid

Our college provides scholarships and discounts to economically backward students to cooperate with their conditions.There is a TFW (Tuition fee Weiver) scheme available for them so as to get a complete discount in tuition fees.

Campus Life

Our college labs have been tidy and well equipped with sufficient apparatus for each student to practice with.Our college has an IE Club for students who are interested in the field of IT.In the field of sports,our college organises annual sports day,intra-college cricket,football tournaments(for boys) and badminton tournament(for girls).

Alumni/Alumna

From the very first day,i was assured that our seniors are very helpful and cooperative.They help us out whenever we fail to understand anything as well as guide us in different ways. There is no ragging scope and so anyone can speak and consult freely with seniors.

Admission

I was admitted on the basis of my JEE (Mains) Score and 10th and 12th board percentage and marks.T here was ?20,000 off as scholarship for students who achieved over 80%in boards(both class 10 and 12).

Faculty

Our faculty members are very good, supportive and cooperative in nature.They provide us with useful notes for sem exams,provide vital suggestions and most importantly,guide us in every professional step we should take in future.

Scottish Church College: A Journey Worth Remembering

Likes

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.

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.

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.
