Remarks

The students union is one pain point as it interfered in events and sports activities.

Course Curriculum Overview

5

This was a 3 years honours course. It had 3 final exams every year. The course was primarily theory in the first year then the last 2 years had several lab experiments to judge students of their knowledge and credibility. Final exams each year also consisted of lab experiments for each different module.

Placement Experience

2.5

The placement and internship opportunities are not so prominent as this is primarily a honours course.

College Events

5

One social event every year organised by the college. This is the biggest event in a calendar year. Other colleges were invited to participate. There were many performances catering to music, dance, recitation and debate followed by a music performance from a popular band in the city. There were other small events organised by different departments during the summer.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is not so expensive because partial funding is available from the university as this college is affiliated to University of Calcutta. Since this is a government funded university most of the courses are almost free to study. So students from low income and below poverty family could study for free.

Fees and Financial Aid

I didn't opt for any educational loan for this course. Fees could be paid each year and in installments to the university.

Campus Life

3.5

Asutosh college is known for its diversity. There is always equal opportunity for everyone from any background. Many department had mostly female students while other departments had mostly the same number of male and frmale students. My department had a gender ratio of about 65 to 35 male to female ratio.

Alumni/Alumna

Alumni network is large since this is almost a 100 year old University. Seniors were helpful and friendly with newly admitted students. Even they organised events so that new students could know their seniors and alumni.

Admission

I had keen interest towards how electronic systems work and what it takes to build one. So naturally this was my choice. This was an Honours course so the entrance criteria was a bit high. I got admitted to this course via merit list selection. The admission committee mainly used the percentage of grades one acquired in 12th board exam.

Faculty

5

Faculty is the beauty and main attraction of this course. Most of the faculty had several years of research experience. They were few of the best professors in University of Calcutta in the Physics & Electronics department. There were at least 3 lectures each day on different modules of this course conducted by 3 different professors.

Placement Experience:

college placements are good in this college with a number of good financial and consultancy firms coming in with new gen companies as well in the service and sales industry. moreoever getting a good placement in a top financial or consultancy placement requires a POR in a good society as a criteria, its not really required but adds to your chances of getting it. moreover you require to participate in a number of case study competitions for the same as well. my plans after graduation is probably working for a year or two after which i plan on doing my MBA. around 50-60% who apply get a placement.

We have a placement cell helping students get placed. They keep posting opportunities like internships and fellowships throughout the year to groom students and give them exposure and experience. Placements can go to very high packages like those in Data Science, Big 4 consulting or core finance or banking jobs. CAs, CFAs and FRMs do well in the placements.
