ST Xavier's Kolkata, B.Sc, Mass Communication And Videography

Remarks

The faculty is great, well experienced names in their respective fields, friendly and helpful. The course syllabus suits my career requirements. The brand name of the college is just an icing on the cake.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course curriculum is film oriented with a stress on various aspects of filmmaking ranging right from editing and scriptwriting to sound designing and videography. It's a comprehensive course and also stresses on other aspects of mass communication like advertising and public relations along with film studies and journalism to sum for a great experience with the subject and field. The faculty and academics are upto the mark.

Class Size: 54Course Fees: INR 300000 per year

Internships Opportunities

I have opted for several internships but all of them have been personally opted for. The college doesn't help with much internships and this can be one of the weak points of the course in our college.

Placement Experience

2.5

The placement and job opportunities after completion of the Mass Communication course is bleak but a few good companies in the likes of Sun Network and NDTV have come in the past years. However most of the students pursue higher education so very few end up opting for the placements.

College Events

4.5

Campus life is an experience of a lifetime with a plethora for opportunities to showcase one's talents through a variety of events being held by various college societies throughout the course of the year.

Campus Life

The campus has a basketball court, a football ground, an indoor games room with carton and table tennis boards, a huge library with a great storehouse of books and industry level softwares and configurations in use in labs.

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 seniors are overly harsh when it comes to 1st year.

The hostel does require everyday cleaning and renovation as well as the campus.

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
