Remarks
The admission process was online based on the merit of the previous degree. Candidates had to fill up an entire form of Calcutta University and according to the cut-off marks, different affiliated colleges were assigned to the candidates. Cut off of Maulana Azad college for M.Sc Zoology in 2020 went to 78.4%.
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose the course because it was the best college providing M.Sc in Zoology in Kolkata. Faculty: student ratio is 1:4. All the facilities in Maulana Azad College have completed their Ph.D. and they conduct smart classes for teaching us. Term exams are in the form of semesters, recurring after every 6 months. Faculties clear our doubts nicely, so it is not difficult to pass the exam.
Internships Opportunities
There are a lot of seminars held at the college giving students an opportunity to shine in the field of Science. Stipends are given as Junior Research Fellowship after cracking NET/GATE or relevant exams.
Placement Experience
Since the courses offered by the college are not professional, very few companies come for placements. Mostly, research scholarships are offered to some students who are scientific and good with academics. 3-4% of students get placed. Companies that come for placements are oracle, Infosys, etc. Nat Geo Wild and other such platforms also appear to give students a chance to choose such careers. I am doing M.Sc in Zoology currently.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions
The fees structure is nominal (Rs. 2300 per semester). Kanyashree and other types of scholarships are available for West Bengal students. Infosys, Oracle, and many such companies come to hire students who are in their end semesters.
Campus Life
Life at the campus is peaceful. Fests are done every year. There are many events taking place throughout the year along with inter-college competitions. Library websites are very helpful for students having almost all the books for all the departments in the college.
