- The course structure is definitely a plus point of this college.
- The faculty of of this college is very good.
Dislikes
- The washroom of this college is very bad.
- The quality of infrastructure is not upto par.
Course Curriculum Overview:
Some of the courses are not really relevant is what I've felt. Like the psychology course is not really psychology I feel because they have included management and stuff in that. Though I think it's relevant in today's world but...yeah.
Likes
- The Faculty is beautiful, So is the authority, They all are patient and understanding and they encourage you no matter what
- Beautiful classrooms, Non- toxic environment, You will feel accepted
Dislikes
- I wish there was more exposure to sports
Course Curriculum Overview:
I chose This course because i absolutely love everything about political science, It's like I get to know about the political system , The political system in India and Outside India, I get to know how the government functions, the administrative structure and everything. The curricular does an excellent job in doing that since political science is all about knowing how our political system is expected to work. The exams mainly are of 3 hours and It's hard it is
Likes
- Environment of the college is very good. Our campus is full of trees which is also good for us as in our health.
- College fest, it contains so many competitions like dance , songs etc
Dislikes
- Cleanliness is very bad, washroom are not cleaned regularly rather washroom are cleaned arohnd after 1 months
- They conduct college in Saturdays too, we have so many classes. They should reduce the no. Of classes atleast a bit .
Course Curriculum Overview:
In the real world they dont do any thing, they just focus on their studies but according to me they should focus on the students growth too , few skills which are very required rather than making projects. The course is nice but study methods are not implemented.
Likes
- I would like to say the fees because most of the people in India face this money issue related to higher studies so i can say Calcutta university us a good option for all of them because it us actually a very affordable and renowned university
- Secondly Calcutta university is one of the oldest University which is a plus point in studying
Dislikes
- I dont no about the other colleges which fall under Calcutta university but our college is very dirty, cleanliness factor should me maintained
- I would say the attendance issues actually this is not a disliked thing but many students have to face some issue regading their attendance
Course Curriculum Overview:
I chose this course because I love this subject throughout school specifically in class 12th so I decided to study this further and I do have some career thoughts thats why I chose this, it totally depends on the students what they want to study in which field they want to go, if I have to say about faculties and their teaching technique those were very good but the exam pattern is little bit difficult for the freshly entered student because Calcutta university pattern recently changes from CBCS to CCF, this create a little but problem because we face the problem when the exams are conducted and all.
Likes
- Abundant greenery, good and helpful staffs,professors are very supportive and an overall good faculty
- Many programmes held on special occasions, disciplined envioronment, well maintained campus facilities, strong sense of community
Dislikes
- Infrastructure
Course Curriculum Overview:
Zoology widely covers Biology and Biology being my very favourite subject. Bethune College is one of the esteemed colleges in India. It is the first Women's college in Asia. With its rich heritage and wonderful faculty,it kind of attracted me rather influenced me to do my masters from this very esteemed institution.
Likes
- The professors have a good teaching experience and they complete the syllabus in time. The college has two big libraries that contain all the books needed for every subject. The professors ensure that all students understand the matter and score well
- The campus is huge with a great canteen service. The canteen food is affordable and tasty as well. They offer both veg and non veg options. Sports day events, inter and intra college competitions are also organised. Annual function is also organised.
Dislikes
- The administrative work takes a long time. Sometimes the professors cancel the classes without any prior information. Some professors just read out of a ppt or a book. They are not super helpful or flexible when it comes to a student's need.
- The campus is not super hygienic. There's dust on the desks and it felt like the bathrooms never got cleaned. The lifts don't work 70% of the time and you need to climb 200 stairs for every other class as they take place in different buildings/floor.
Placement Experience:
Students become eligible for placements from semester 5. A few local companies conducted placement drives in our college but they failed to grasp our attention as they were offering salary on the basis of performance and weren't clear about their job profile. TCS was the biggest company that invited students from our college for job opportunities in 2023. The salary package was low ranging from 4 to 5LPA. Most of the students preferred continuing with their studies as they wanted to become counsellors or clinical psychologists because these professions offer a better pay and more perks (independent nature of work, ability to provide better help to people etc).
Likes
- The infrastructure is really well built and spacious
- Faculty is helpful and respectful to students
Dislikes
- The canteen is quite small to hold the crowd during lunch
- Some washrooms are unuseable due to the unhygienic conditions
Course Curriculum Overview:
Firstly a government institution is always better because it's highly affordable and carries benefits for future reference Secondly about Bethune it's already a prestigious institution under CU so it's not that easy to get in If you have the chance to study here take my advice get admission here Exams are conducted with great security they questions are made with the knowledge given to us so if you can study well then good for you
Likes
- The campus is so beautiful and a calm place to focus on studies. The whole campus is full of trees and also well maintained.
- There are several buildings where each building contains 3-4 departments, a big auditorium, different libraries for science and arts subjects.
Dislikes
- Libraries need an upgradation with new launched books which might help the students with their semester studies otherwise there are a lot of good old and high-level books
Course Curriculum Overview:
Our semester wise course curriculum was very good as compared other universities as our curriculum contains more content and sufficient for our knowledge. There are pure as well as applied part of mathematics, students can observe, research and can choose their field on interests for their higher studies.
Likes
- The psychology department is the leading department of the college. Teachers are polite and excellent in their field. We have 3 labs in the department and enough inttuments.
- We have a strict anti-ragging cell. Other than ragging we have right to complain against any type of harassment by faculty members. We have departmental libraries, archives, Science & arts library also.
Dislikes
- The bathrooms are not clean and lack maintenance and water.
- The lift in the psychology department is not working for 6-7 months but no one repaired it. It's problematic for pwd students, teachers and who have emergencies.
Course Curriculum Overview:
The reputation of the college, and reviews from senior students influenced me to take admission to Bethune college. The college environment changed me a lot, my personality got improved, I got to know more about life, my perspective about life developed. I think demonstration method should be introduced it improves the teaching. The exam timings got affected for the election's and questions were bit intellectual but helped to improve writing skill.
Likes
- The faculty, the teachers, the campus, and some gem of books in the Library MAINLY
- The affordability a 100 times! Imagine a good studious atmosphere with teachers interested in teaching and always there for you just 1800/- a year!!!
Dislikes
- The cultural side could have been a little more flourished it is not like it DOES NOT HAVE but it could have been better
- The campus life is a little dry there so being an outgoing person I feel a little dull but a good friend group is all it takes though:)(it might be heaven for you if you're an introvert)
Course Curriculum Overview:
I'm BA psychology and I love my course here!! The faculty especially is really dedicated and in terms of practicality it's very up to date with then labs and instruments if you are interested in that. Even though maintanence is a slight issue there as it is a government college there is issues with the maintanence but to be honest the faculty makes up for it
