Course Curriculum Overview

5

I chose This course because i absolutely love everything about political science, It's like I get to know about the political system , The political system in India and Outside India, I get to know how the government functions, the administrative structure and everything. The curricular does an excellent job in doing that since political science is all about knowing how our political system is expected to work. The exams mainly are of 3 hours and It's hard it is

Internships Opportunities

4

There are not much internship opportunities as much as I know specially for the Arts section or like the Humanities section , But we do go for summer internships which is a unpaid internship to gain experience and knowledge

Fees and Financial Aid

In Bethune college we pay fees semester wise. Admission fees (one time ) - Rs 200-500 Tuition fee - rs 1200-1800 (150 per month) Session charges- rs 400 Library fees -rs 100 Examination fee - rs 450 Identity Card few - rs 50 Scholarship granted - Post matric Scholarships Government scholarships Scholarships provided from the college itself for someone coming from the weaker section of the society

Campus Life

5

We have lots of events going on throughout the year , but the main is Alaap , It's the annual Fest of Bethune college , and again It's beautiful and fun. It's typically held in the month of December. Library has Almost every genre of book that is needed. Facilities are okay can be improved There is not much exposure to sports but other than that there is a lot of exposure to other co- curricular activities. There are a lot of clubs - dance , drama, debate , quiz etc.

Admission

I applied to a lot of colleges like Loreto, Lady Barbourne, Asutosh, and Maulana Azad, and I got into all of those, and no doubt they are good, but Bethune Has a charm, It's the only girl's college from Kolkata to feature in The NIRF Rankins, Bethune has a heritage that no one can match and it has a environment which is beautiful, and the faculty - top notch especially of my department. The admission process is You apply, you wait for the Merit list , when you name appears, pay the fees and wait for the verification date. The cut-off is high you need to score at least 92%

Faculty

5

The Faculty to student ratio is Good , Like You get 5-6 professors for every class with 30+ students, The faculty is Very approachable, helpful and friendly, They are very non judgemental. I love the whole faculty of Pol.sci department, they are beautiful human being inside out. There are 2 main exams, semester exams, other than that , There are internals and vivas

Other Applied Colleges

Loreto College | Bachelor of Arts [BA] {Hons.} (Political Science)

I didn't opt for this college because the yearly fees was way higher, and the authority was not very approachable

Course Curriculum Overview:

There are several prospects, especially peer-to-peer counseling, where you get a mentor. We call it mentor mentee program. So, there will be groups of students, and each group will have a mentor who helps you whenever you face any issues whether in real life or in your academic journey. They’re always there for you. There are also remedial classes, and extracurricular activities are included in the curriculum. You even get the freedom to choose what you want to pursue creatively, like joining poetry clubs and similar groups. Right now, I’m at Banaras University, and the curriculum here is really good. We have sessions on public speaking, how to conduct interviews, and many other practical skills. These are highly commendable because they help you in professional situations like the one I’m in now. However, I would say that teachers could be a bit more active with electronic tools like using PPT presentations or audio-visual methods instead long lecture sessions. As for exams, I wouldn’t say they’re too difficult because there are many weekly assessments and sessionals, which actually help you evaluate yourself better.
