Remarks

Firstly this is one of the best college in kolkata with excellent faculty and the college not only provides academic knowledge but also helps us culture our extra co-curricular activities equally.It is a also one of the top colleges in India with a strong alumni who are placed globally in various elite institutions. Teachers are friendly and approachable.Campus is good and without politics,provides a suitable environment for studies.I opted for biotechnology as it one of the most recent developing field of study and through this subject I can do a lot for the society.Since I want a career in research field I feel it is a correct choice

Course Curriculum Overview

College syllabus is up-to-date according to the UGC.Since I am in the first year yet now no industrial exposure has been provided. Teacher's are very much updated about their area of subject and provide hands on learning.

Class Size: 39Course Fees: INR 100000 per year

Placement Experience

Placements are provided mainly for the computer and commerce students.Other departments do no provide as such direct placements from the college

College Events

College helps in all round development of the Student.Various small and big fests are held throughout the year.Each department organises various events and seminars and workshops.Sponsorships are arranged by the students itself. Several colleges in the city take part in our events.Our annual fest Xavotsav is one of a kind and one of the most popular college fest

Campus Life

Infrastructure is quite good.Classrooms are quite spacious but again this doesn't apply to each and every classroom in the college few are very small and not airy. Lab is well equipped and it has all the essential things required to carry out our experiments without much trouble.Sports facilities are quite good.Library is huge and has books and has study material resources which can be easily accessed.E-Library is also there.There isn't any problem with the wi-fi

Likes

Supportive Faculty - The professors are highly qualified, approachable and always willing to help students
Free wifi support - There are free wifi support for both student and faculty
Fee Structure - It is very affordable and low compared to other colleges in the region

Dislikes

Placement support is below average, and most studnets have to apply for off campus jobs independently, which is really pathetic in the era of ai where getting a job as a fresher is so difficult
There is no dedicated support or placment cell initiative to help studnets land meaningful summer internships or any kind of internships

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements starting from the 7th semester. For placement drives, we have to visit the main campus, Techno Main Salt Lake (TMSL). Since students from other Techno India campuses and branches also participate, the competition is extremely high. In the 2025–2026 academic year, fewer companies visited. Only two companies, Dronahost and WishCare, visited our specific campus directly. The remaining drives—mostly service-based companies like TCS and EY, along with a few startups—were conducted at the main campus. The remaining drives mostly service based companies like TCS, EY etc and quite a few startups has visited to main campus. The package they offered mostly in between 3.5lpa - 6 lpa. Furthermore the selection process of those startups is quite rigorous often consisting of upto 5 rounds of interview, two technical rounds with two technical interviews, and HR round My plans after getting the degree is either pursue an MBA or preparing for govt jobs

The Techno Experience

Likes

Practical Exposure with hands on training is always good for personal growth
The laboratories were well equipped with state of the art instruments
Entrepreneurship was encouraged and it really helped us with designing future start ups.

Dislikes

Lack of scholarships for the needy is one thing that needed to be worked on.
There was a distinct lack of encouragement to pursue extracurricular activity.
Sometimes it felt like it would have helped if we had a mental health counsellor onboard with the department.

Placement Experience:

Techno India University has a strong campus placement. Several students got jobs during the last semester, and I am one of them. Some others choose to wait for better opportunities. Some joined good startups. The package was nominal as we were all freshers. After getting my degree, I planned to pursue corporate experience and then join a lab for my PhD.

In case of my couse everything is coverd but it would have been much better of they focus on practicals more rather than theory. If they make us aware of all the new technologies that are used in the industry.

St. Xavier's College Kolkata Review

I chose this college over other colleges due to its high reputation, especially regarding the B.Com course. The college also has a very prestigious range of alumni and good placement opportunities. It consistently ranks among the top colleges in our country, most recently gaining the 6th position on the NIRF scale. The college also has a well-reputed faculty and a record of good teaching. The college admission process was fairly simple. It was an online process - and included filling up a detailed admission form along with online submission of necessary documents. After that came the payment of the application fee. The selection lists containing the names of selected students came out a few weeks later, with a link for the payment of the admission fee for the first semester. Following that was the physical verification of documents, on completion of which the admission process was formally complete....Read More

St Xavier's College is the best

I would like to start with these college facilities: Faculties are well experienced and with good knowledge and have proper communication way. The infrastructure is of this college is the best I . Classrooms are equipped with AC in summer and are huge to prevent suffocating. Admission is a very easy process here with less paperwork, have to simply apply online or fill forms and each form costs 1000 (at my time). Have to carry results and certificates of other exams and the minimum marks are required to get selected. And thereafter give a written test on the campus and thereafter give an interview over there. If you will be qualified they may get in touch with you through mobile and email also. The forms are out in the month of June and the dates are fluctuating. Before taking admission I have done a lot of research through friends and have also seen its review on the website Collegedunia. These college facilities are good and the education provided is best. The admission fees are quite heavier....Read More
