Lady Brabourne College Kolkata, M.Sc, Geography

Reviewed on Jun 7, 2021(Enrolled 2018)

Remarks

There was an admission test for M.Sc. Geography program. After that, according to the merit list, admission was done. Admission criteria were to be graduated from a certified university with 60% marks in honours, and pass out year should be within 2 years prior the admission year.

Course Curriculum Overview

As I have passion for geography since my childhood, I have chosen geography for my future studies. Pursuing a master's in geography was a part of it. Teachers and teaching facility is okayish. There were class tests and term every week.

Class Size: 27Course Fees: INR 50000 per year

Placement Experience

There is a placement cell in our college. Our college offers placement in TCS, Cognizant, Wipro and in many reputed MNCs. Most students get recruited from English honours, economics honours, and computer science. I have got a job, right before my last semester, but it was off campus.

Fees and Financial Aid

I didn't get any scholarship as scholarship criteria about family wasn't matched with mine. fees hike as in, there were fixed semester fees, that is 12500/-. And there were some maintenance fees and that was very less as our college is govt. college.

Campus Life

3.5

Fest, socialization, fresher party, farewell party, teachers day, different campaign, there was a lot of things. Apart from all these, there was a lot of workshop and hands on programs. There were projectors, a podium, practical instruments with well decorated classrooms.

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.

Senior and Junior relationship is great, and PhD scholars often guide you in studies and in Life
Canteens, Playground, Books shops are near or inside the Campus with Department and Central Library with access to many books and online resources and WiFi

Dislikes

Politics is on peak since great colleges in india such as JNU are engaged in political activities

Not all courses provides placements. But Placements are often common in departments such as Geology, for other departments, faculties can provide letters of recommendations and absorb as PhD scolars after PG completion and satisfactory performance

My thoughts on our beloved Sidho Kanho Birsha University.

Likes

The most I liked about my university is the infrastructure and availability of facilities for our studies.
Second thing I like are our professors . They help us in every aspect of our educational or personal life .
Third thing I like the most is my batchmates who gives me encouragement for pursuing my studies.

Dislikes

The university is a bit far from the Purulia city . So the connectivity is a problem.
I think if we get some extra hours of the lab facilities, that will be great.
Water purifier are available in some of the floors I think the number should be increased.

Placement Experience:

The campus placement of our university is quite good and it is getting better day by day. Especially our chemistry department is doing great in this field. Last year our dept almost hit 100% placements and the highest package was of 5 lpa. I am planning to peruse my PhD after MSc.

Everything you need to know before taking admission in Lady Brabourne College

I initially applied to Presidency University, Scottish Church College, Loreto College, Bethune. Taking the overall environment and faculty into consideration ( non union college) I opted for this college. Faced a rejection from Presidency and Loreto...but got into the rest two. The admissions are based off of 12th marks strictly. No other exams are accepted. One has to score very high to get into this college. Gen- above 95 Obc- 85 above Sc -75 above The above assumptions are just rough. One might be lucky enough to get into this college with lower marks or be unfortunate to not get into with much higher marks. Let's say a safe 90 above should be scored regardless of category. Luck opens to a lot of students during the later rounds of admission....Read More

Lady Brabourne College: Is it worth it?

I got chance in a lot of different colleges under CU, State University, and Kalyani University, but chose this one since this is a reputed one with no political influence. I got rejected from Presidency University since I was not able to make the cut-off there, but LBC was my second choice, so I am kind of okay with it. We are admitted through merit list which depends on your 12th marks and marks of your major subject. It is a merit based admission process....Read More
