Remarks

In India last two years NIRF Ranking 9th and 2nd. The college serves great education and great life changing lessons. The college premises is very much well decorated with flower trees. The college has a breathtaking stock of books.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course curriculum is currently best in the city of Kolkata. As it is an autonomous college, the governing body and the teacher's council decide the syllabus structure. That's why the course curriculum is compact for the three year course. It covers all the aspects of the subjects and sometimes more than that. As it is an autonomous college, it has own gradation system which follows the semester (half yearly) system.

Placement Experience

4.5

Yes, after master's there are a lot of Job opportunities but my college gives the basic understanding of subject. My college provide internships but they don't pay for that. A lot of great research opportunities are there as lab work or research work.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Very much feasible. Even people from backward classes get extra benefit. The monthly hostel and mess charge will be around 5000 rupees. That means fooding and lodging. The college fees are very much cheaper.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes my college provides scholarship to the needy students. They can also provide some government funded scholarships. Loan facilities are not there. There are also many scholarships where govt of India sends the money directly to the students

Campus Life

4.5

There are a lot a lot a lot of curricular activities. From annual sports day to essay drama and quiz competition. They celebrate the memorial lecture series. They celebrate independence day, republic day.

Hostel Facilities

Hostel accommodation is mandatory for this college. You have to stay at the hostel rooms. On average each room has 5 beds, and 2 fans, and enough lights. The hostel environment is damn good. People make awesome friends there.

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

They are very much helpful. Most of them are pursuing PhD. The senior students don't follow the ragging. They believe in brotherhood. They helps a lot in college but certainly after college they still keep the touch.

Admission

First I saw the advertisement and then I filled up the form through internet. One day I went there for admission test. They published a merit list for the interview process. On the next day I went for the interview. After interview they again published the names of the finally selected candidates and the waiting candidates.

Faculty

As I am affiliated to PhD right now, I can say the faculties on specific departments are the best version of Indian teachers. They present the subject not as a book reading information but as a thought provoking challenges. They are immensely helpful and delightful persons.

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.

A GLANCE AT ONE OF THE BEST WOMAN'S COLLEGE: SISTER NIBEDITA GENERAL DEGREE COLLEGE FOR GIRLS

Likes

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.

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.

Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira: A Life Changing Experience

Other than this, I applied for St. Xavier's and Scottish Church college. I didn't get in due to the required marks in class 12th and had my chance at Scottish Church but chose this college because of recommendations from previous alumnis and due to the prestigious legacy of this college. There are two rounds of admission in Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira. First is the written test which you apply through their website and registering yourself as the candidate and the second round is the interview where both the departmental teachers and administration faculty introduce you to the faculty and test your capability to be an asset to the department as well as your commitment to be in this college. It's a pretty smooth process and once you're cracked the written test, rest of it is easy if you're committed to be in this college....Read More

My true temple- Vidyamandira

The primary reason for shoosing this college is for its quiet and study friendly enviorenment that it offers. Set awaay from the chaotic city and having river ganges at it's side, the ambience is very peaceful and supportive. Other major pros include that there is no scene of ragging or bad behaviours of seniros. They are very friendly and cooperative. There is an anti ragging cell ensuring that such crimes are not commited in the premises. Strict discipline is maintained in the college premises and students sheldom break rules. This makes working and studying much more synchronised and effective here. Talking about admissions, there are admission testa taken for each subject, and an interveiw department wise are taken. The cutoff reaches very low around 7 marks in 50 marks test. The syllabus for each subject is the respective syllabuses upto class 11 and 12 level. I didnot apply in any other colleges....Read More
