Remarks

This college is one of the best colleges in West Bengal for girls. This college is strict regarding academics and provides quality education. The professors are all very friendly and there's a homely environment all around. It has a beautiful premise with greenery. There are all facilities available as the students need like libraries, canteens, playground, gym, etc. The only bad aspect I came across is it has a few festivals but a number of holidays are more than enough. This year the fest got canceller which is a little boring for all but the hostel is another beautiful place to enjoy to the fullest. Admission takes place after the results of 12th are all out and the whole process is online. Students have to attain the verification process offline for taking in admission. Overall this college provides every opportunity that a student require.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

This college has excellent professors and the number is quite huge. Most of them have a good educational background. The exams are taken on a regular basis to keep a revision. Also, homework is provided just like school. But in no sense students are pressurized.

Course Fees: INR 4300 per year

Placement Experience

My plan is to give entrance exams like jak, jest, tifr. Mainly my motive is to pursue msc in iit or iisc.

Fees and Financial Aid

For bsc hons(3 year course) :13, 047. For msc(2 year) :68, 634. For ba hons(3 year) :10, 527. There are various scholarships to apply for. The college has a fund which provides scholarship and there are campuses to provide jobs too.

Campus Life

4.5

Kaleidoscope is the annual fest held. Many festivals like Saraswati puja, Basanta Utsav, teacher's day, etc are held. There are 3 libraries with digital facilities where students can hunt for their desired books. There are different clubs beholding different duties. Few classrooms have smartboards, ac.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

The hostel is the best of all since it gave me a different way to live life. Meals are provided in the morning, evening, night and quality aren't too bad. The rooms are big enough and airy. There is a gym, a beautiful garden. No trace of ragging and seniors are extremely friendly. For hostel admission, students need to fill a form during college admission. Then an online list will come in the college website after that the student has to go to the superintendent for the admission process.

Hostel Fee: INR 3052 per year

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.

Our college doesn't provide hostel facilities

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.

Everything you need to know before taking admission in Lady Brabourne College

I initially applied to Presidency University, Scottish Church College, Loreto College, Bethune. Taking the overall environment and faculty into consideration ( non union college) I opted for this college. Faced a rejection from Presidency and Loreto...but got into the rest two. The admissions are based off of 12th marks strictly. No other exams are accepted. One has to score very high to get into this college. Gen- above 95 Obc- 85 above Sc -75 above The above assumptions are just rough. One might be lucky enough to get into this college with lower marks or be unfortunate to not get into with much higher marks. Let's say a safe 90 above should be scored regardless of category. Luck opens to a lot of students during the later rounds of admission....Read More

Lady Brabourne College: Is it worth it?

I got chance in a lot of different colleges under CU, State University, and Kalyani University, but chose this one since this is a reputed one with no political influence. I got rejected from Presidency University since I was not able to make the cut-off there, but LBC was my second choice, so I am kind of okay with it. We are admitted through merit list which depends on your 12th marks and marks of your major subject. It is a merit based admission process....Read More
