Remarks

As I belong to a middle-class family that's why I take admission in this government college. The fee of the college is too low and the education system is also very good. Big and proper classrooms and library are there for students. Teachers were also very good and have great teaching experience. The surrounding of the college campus is very nice. There is no ragging at all in Maulana Azad College. And the best part of this college is that it provides education to all students irrespective of their caste, religion and financial support. There are many scholarship programs running in the college for the poor and needy students. One can get all the necessary education in this beautiful College. Maulana Azad College is fully funded by the State Government. All the festivals are organised and celebrated by the college i.e, Holi, Saraswati puja, eid etc. Many programs and function were held in the college for the proper growth and development of the students.

Course Curriculum Overview

As I studied Commerce in the senior secondary that's why I choose B.Com in the undergraduate. And also I have a great interest in the accounts and finance. I wanted to work in the banking system, and the B.Com course will lead to that goal. The faculty of the college is very good and properly mannered. As all the necessary subjects were taught from the best and experienced teacher. Teachers are very helpful in nature, they clear all the doubts of the students in the classroom. In my class, there are 66 students. Out of 66, 36 are boys and 30 are girls. All the teachers of our department holding the degree of B.Com, M.Com. Our HOD holds the B.com, M.com, M.Phill and PhD. As I am studying in CBCS system, 2 exams were taken by the University in a single year. Calcutta University is the very good University in India. And it's among the top ten University in India. The exams are very hard to pass. And the examination system is very good. 20% marks allotted as internal exams and 80% as external.

Placement Experience

1

No placement in my college. That's why no students were got placed. None of the companies came to recruit the students. There was no average salary or any salary offered to any of the students. Around two students got an internship in companies in nearby areas. Placement is the weak point of the college, the administration should have to take bold steps to think about the student's jobs security just after passing the college.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fees of the college are very low, as anyone can afford that. As this college is fully funded by the State Government. My 1-year fees are around 1200 INR only. That means only 5000 is needed for the completion of the course in 3 years. Many scholarship program are running in the college for the poor and needy students. No placement in my college. That's why no students were got placed. None of the companies came to recruit the students. There was no average salary or any salary offered to any of the students.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose the course the b.com because I want to become the CA but after completing the graduation my family condition was not very good so I quit my studies and searching for the job. My dream was after B.com then I complete M.com then CA but I couldn't do that. I'm pursuing because I'm interested in understanding how businesses work and want a solid foundation in commerce and finance. It opens up various career paths in accounting, finance, management, and more. Plus, it's a versatile degree that can lead to professional certifications like CA, CS, or MBA.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course is of course outdated. Teaching methods are old. No case studies, competitions or project of any sort is there in the curriculum. Although a project of 100 marks is there in the final sem, but I don't think that's enough. There is no practicality in the curriculum and usability in career. The syllabus really needs an uplifment.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is average , I chose this course because I wanted to do an honours degree and I'm from commerce background so my first pick was B.Com . They really put efforts to prepare students for well future , as I said earlier some teachers are genuinely very good helpful supporting and good at what they do . Something they need to approve is the 70% attendance criteria, I think they need to understand not every student is just persuing graduation they are doing some other courses or jobs etc so they can't maintain 70% attendance . The frequency of timing is average
