Remarks
Proper placement cell is needed. Also guide to get internships is the need of the hour.
Course Curriculum Overview
Course curriculum was up to date which was design similar to the IIMs. Most of the faculties were from various industry and thereby imparted practical knowledge rather than only theoretical lectures. Few faculties were ex faculties of IIM and XLRI. There were a few management book authors as well.
Placement Experience
Since the institute was a government one ( University of Calcutta) hence they don't have any placement cell nor any placement officer. So were dependent on off-campus interviews. We used to get help from our alumni as well as our faculties on this regard.
College Events
We used to have reunion of ex students and the reunion helps us to get off campus interviews. Also institute used to conduct various seminars attended by many experts from various industry. We got the chance to attend a lot of conferences conducted by Chamber of commerce.
Fee Structure And Facilities
Since its a Government institution the fee structure was very nominal. Our admission fee was Rs. 100 and we used to pay a monthly fee of Rs. 200 only. Mode of payment was manual only. We need to visit the university fee collection counter and deposit the fees there.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions
Scholarships was not available and nobody needs it as the fee structure was very nominal and highly affordable.
Campus Life
Campus life was very good. Male: Female ratio was 60:40. Lot of extracurricular activities like sports, debates, functions, get together used to happen. Annual sports was a main attraction of our campus. Fresher's welcome was also very attractive at our time.
Hostel Facilities
Hostel facilities was there but I could not avail that as that was for out station candidates only. The fees of hostel was very nominal and affordable, however the location was far away from the original campus.
Alumni/Alumna
Alumnus were very helpful during our time. We used to get our internships as well as off campus interviews for final placements through them only.
Admission
My institute used to conduct its own entrance exam. Exam was of 100 marks comprising Maths ( Graduation level), English, Reasoning & General Knowledge. After qualifying the written test there was personal interview and on the basis of both the test the merit list was published. There were about five thousand students who took the test and no of available seats were 30.
Faculty
Faculties were highly qualified in their own domain. Mathematics part were taught by faculties from ISI. Management part were taught by ex XLRI & IIM faculties. Most of them were authors of various management books. Imparting practical knowledge and making us industry ready were there motto of teaching.
