Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

There is a 4 years Curriculum Course of B.A Hons in English with 8 semesters. But however, we can discontinue the classes after 3 years with only a bachelor's degree. If we wish to continue the classes after 3 years, we can opt for research which will only be eligible to students with a minimum 75% aggregate in 3 semesters, and get an honors degree with research after the 4th year. We can also take it without research and get an honors degree. It provides internships that can be added to our resume. The course needs to provide more subject options such as library science, human rights, psychology, and education. The exams are very difficult and tough to score. Too many assignments and not much time is given to complete them. The credits are very difficult to score.

Internships Opportunities

4

The internship opportunities are available after the 3rd year. It provides credits as well as adds to our job resume. The internship includes social services like giving out food packets to the poor and other college camps.

Faculty

4

The teachers are less compared to the students. The English Department teachers are very good. It is one of the best colleges in West Bengal to study English. They are also very polite and helpful. We interact with the teachers quite often to clear our doubts.
