  • Placement process was interrupted in between

Course Curriculum Overview :

The course and curriculum are very student-friendly and are changed from time to time to suit the student's needs. Exam difficulty can be rated from moderately difficult to very difficult. Teaching inculcated modern teaching methods to keep the process engaging, screenings of certain texts are held from time to time.

Internships Opportunities :

Placements and opportunities were running smoothly until our placement co-ordinator resigned which has made the process a little irregular currently until someone else joins in her place. Our batch has just gotten done with our finals thus we are facing this issue.

Placement Experience :

For other skill-based courses placements start after the second semester. For theory-based courses like ours, we can start the placement process from sem4 if we are able to manage the dissertation process and the internship simultaneously.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

The fee structure is better in terms of affordability as compared to other private universities in Kolkata. The Course fee was 1.5 however I received a scholarship that reduced my course fees to upto less than half. The Scholarships are granted on a merit basis.

Campus Life :

There are a few clubs that I'm aware of, music, and drama clubs, although I wasn't an active member of any, I still participated frequently in events, dance dramas, and street plays. Technological provisions are up to the mark. Fests and college festivities and cultural events take place from time to time.

Hostel Facilities :

I used the hostel facility during ug days, The hostel facilities were very good, non-ac rooms were spacious with sufficient washrooms for students and were cleaned regularly. The meals served were average. Security was well ensured, a bed, cupboard, and study table mirror were provided to each student in their rooms. apart from this, there was a huge dining table at the dining spaces on each floor. They charged 7.5k for such rooms.

Admission :

The Entrance exam was necessary for others but since I pursued my bachelor's from the same university I did not have to take one. The admission process is relatively simple and gets done within a matter of a few hours.

Faculty :

Professors have been very approachable throughout the course, in the classroom as well as after classes. So much so that students can actually consider talking out their personal problems with the professors apart from their academic issues.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum really helped me learn aspects about various papers and even detailed knowledge about certain parts of literature which is very rarely focused on by others was covered here and helped me get a few pointers for UGC NET.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I wanted to study film making and advertising which prompted me to choose Mass Communication. There's less effect of the curriculum in real world application. Teachers need to look beyond favouritism and teach according to modern day technique. Frequency of exam was like 5-6month sometime it took 7 month sometime 5 month. Difficulty level was high.

Remarks:

The quality of teaching imparted in this Institute is high quality. Timely publication of research and is a hub of research opportunities. The food available in the canteen is also cheap. However, the physical infrastructure of this University is sometimes lacking and the washrooms are also seldom not clean.

Remarks:

Overall my experience is very good. The Govt. funds allocated to education should be increased to give the best minds of this country a well equipped support structure to guide them to excellence. Also, the campus needs more cleanliness and awareness drives for social and political sensitization.

Remarks:

Pros- Great environment, one of the most vibrant campus lives there is and there is a lot of freedom and autonomy about the space. people are encouraged to think freely and pursue their interests beyond academic aspirations. A lot of students have gone on to do wonderful things in completely different fields than their initial association. Great placement facilities ensure that you also pass out with a job.
