Course Curriculum Overview
I chose this course, especially because of my love of the subject. I always wondered about the mechanism of the human body and the process of evolution through many stages of other organisms. I had no idea about the placements. In the college, there are sufficient and well-qualified professors for upgrading one's education and overall life learning. There is no shortage of teachers at all. Nearly every other faculty member has been a top performer in their respective fields, with no hesitation in calling them a perfect blend of qualification and humility. They try their best to explain difficult theories with real-life examples (I know that from my personal experience, as well As said by my other friends from different disciplines, i.e., physics in college). All the semester and mid semester exams were on time, as guided by our governing University (ie. Vidyasagar University). The exams are quite on the higher side of being called as average. You have to put in a little extra effort to pass.
Internships Opportunities
TATA, Infosys, and the newly launched West Bengal Govt Portal are recruiting students as interns during the course. With a decent internship of Rs. 5,000–10,000/month in posts like Trainee, junior analyst, government schemes promoter, etc. The work can be in the form of: 1. Learning to analyse huge chunks of data in the company forum, 2. Managing Company data in Excel sheets, 3. Letting people know about all the Govt. on-going schemes by online and offline means, etc.
Placement Experience
Students in the final semester become eligible to appear in the college placement for the companies. Besides that, you can apply for part-time internships in government and private companies through out your course. The mentionable companies that recruit from our college are TATA, Infosys, Wipro, WILP, ICICI Bank, etc. Offers are made in most of the departments for various work profiles. The lowest and highest packages we offer in our course are 10,000 and 38,000 INR/month. You can be placed in various profiles, such as Operations Executive, Analyst, Junior Attendee, etc. You can also get a job in a Zoological or Botanical Park, as a research laboratory junior scientist, guest lecturer, etc. Nearly 30–40% of the students get placed. My plan is to pursue a postgraduate degree in Zoology and then apply for a junior researcher post.
Fees and Financial Aid
The fees for this college are comparatively lower than most of the other colleges because it is aided by the government. You can also avail of different scholarships. SVMCM, Vidyasarathi, TATA, and Jindal are some of the preferred scholarships to avail of. Out of them, SVMCM is the best in terms of the ease of the process and the amount of assistance.
Campus Life
The mentionable annual festival began on the day of the establishment of the college. Other than that, seminars and small fests are held every 2–3 months. The college also organises workshops in association with leading brands like TATA, Infosys, etc to promote entrepreneurship. Books by several standard national and international authors are available in the library of the college. In addition to that the college has an online portal of digital library for several other books. All the required accessories are available in all departments. For example, various specimens of animals, microscopes, sclaples, etc. are available in adequate samples. Sports and other extracurricular activities are heavily promoted in our college. For example, football, volleyball, cricket in addition with music, drama and art forms like poetry, article writing, etc. Some of our seniors have played in state-level football matches as well.
Admission
About the eligibility, you need to pass class 12th from a recognised board with at least 45% marks. The application for admission is only through the college website. There is no admission fee for applying to this college from the year of COVID, as directed by the West Bengal Govt. The application starts with 2–3 months of the class 12th result of the West Bengal Board. You can also avail of reservation benefits for admission cut-offs. It becomes a little easier for reserved candidates to get a seat with a bit less marks. The admissions process was pretty smooth. I didn't face any problem while the process. Even if an 18-year-old kid can easily perform all the documentation online and at the time of admission all by himself or herself. (Just as I did)
