Remarks

The University is the 200 years legacy of most of the successful person in West Bengal living or dead. It also produced 2 Nobel laureate from India. Overall this institute provides everything. I think they should focus on the scholarships and the placement cells to give students an access to companies. It's really disappointing to see students with lower merit gets the job from outside and our students opting for lower pay-scale jobs.

Course Curriculum Overview

5

The whole course is made in such a way that you never feel pressurised as well as Making your brain ready for the entrance and future research. The course structure is well maintained and well divided throughout the semesters. For Post graduate they have a year long dissertation program in which we have to work under some faculty's lab, which gives us a lab exposure before going to PhDs. Labs are sometimes hectic and sometimes okay depending on the situation.

Placement Experience

0.5

This is one negative point of our college there is no placement cell and students get no chance for company exposure unless going for a walk in. The stipend system is only for below the poverty level students. But the overall institute fee is nominal @2000 per year

College Events

5

Milieu- the fest Ispat abahon Icon Pucl- presidency University Cricket league PUFL- PRESIDENCY UNIVERSITY FOOTBALL LEAGUE DEPARTMENTAL FRESHERS And also different types of cultural festival throughout the year

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fees are very nominal for each semester they charge about 1300 per semester. For one year the cumulative fees would be 2600 per year which is very nominal for each and every student even after coming from a poor background

Fees and Financial Aid

I don't know if any. The students who are form very poor background they opt for scholarships and also for girls there is kanyashree scholarship. Institute has no such particular scholarships except for the BPL scholarship

Campus Life

4

Some of the labs are very good, some are not. The sports experience is awesome. We have our own playing ground and basket ball court. In the winter they organise football and cricket league.there is also indoor games like chess and badminton court inside the university

Alumni/Alumna

There is an alumni cell inside our campus. They are very helpful. I even went there for accessing an outer source and their cooperation was splendid. The alumni are also so open minded to talk to. It's just like an additional positive point

Admission

There is an exam called PUBDET every year in July. That is basically the admission process for undergraduate students. And for post graduate students similar exam PUMDET is conducted by the West Bengal Joint entrance examination board. Life sciences is basically one of the pioneers of the future sciences. Where others busy in studying only one field like botany or zoology or physiology, we get to study everything related to biology so definitely one should go for this stream

Faculty

4.5

Each and every one of them are highly qualified and they are available to every single students. We don't need to go for additional tuition because of their lucid slide presentation and teaching. Specific faculties teaches specific courses and everyone of them are good.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I love computer science so I chose this department. The teaching in this department is very good and the labs are also very good. We have many exams in our semester.It would have been better if we had studied our theory paper a little better. And it would have been better if we had studied Android app development a little better.
