Course Curriculum Overview

4

The main reason for choosing this course was because of the renowned faculty member and the practical approach to teaching. The faculty: student ratio was decent enough, but there should have been more younger faculty members on the senior board of members. Exams were on-time, and semester exams were held 4 times in the span of 2 years. Some terminal and class tests were held on a regular basis.

Fees and Financial Aid

During 2019, the fee structure of the whole course was around 20000. Semester fees were included in the said amount and the last year there were lab fees which were nominal. Few students can get some government benefit schemes under specified guidelines.

Campus Life

4.5

There was no such fest held but one university fest and the yearly Basanta festival(holi festival) is very popular in Kolkata. Books and journals were available. Amenities such as projectors and computer labs are available.

Admission

Anyone wishing to join the university has to first file an application from the official website of RBU and then a written multiple choice question exam is held offline. After which, a list will be shared by the university on their official website, according to which one can see the shortlisted candidates list. Usually, there are at least 5 merit lists which are shared by the university. Accordingly, one can get admitted on the allotted admission date available on the website. The physical admission process had its hassles which could have been more organized by the staff members.

Course Curriculum Overview:

So, we read great authors like Mulvey, Kafka, Eliot, Plath, Toni Morisson amongst others. The works provided a deep insight on the working of the world, how brutal and harsh the reality is and how we can overcome these. The course helped the students in the humanitarian understanding of human and emotions which I guess is lacking in today's world. The exams were held after 3-4 months for the semester

Course Curriculum Overview:

This university has a widespread name for generations and so the courses taught here must be for not only students' academic excellence but also for their personality building. My course 'Political Science' has created my kin interest to study the subject in later life and when it comes with the name of Presidency University, it always offers better prospects for students. The faculties are very co-operative, responsible and student friendly except few in our particular department. The faculty-student ratio is 3:50. Most of the faculties believe in teaching in unconventional method, so they organize experimental modes for Internal assessment, exams and teaching courses. However the university has its biggest problem hidden in its untimely routine of completing syllabus and conducting exams or internals. Term exams are conducted just before the exams which is inconvenient, however the exams in our department are not too difficult to pass. The faculties give pass marks to all students.
