Course Curriculum Overview

4

Literature has been my passion. The curriculum quenches the thirst of my passion. It is by far enlightening and very informative. Some changes are required though. The Masters' curriculum should have some research based work.

Placement Experience

3

There were no official placements notices for our department as we are Literature students. But for others they provide good placements with good packages. For us the college provides NET and other government examinations classes for the aspirants.

Fees and Financial Aid

Fees per semester- 9000 there per year it is 18000. MA english is a 2 year course. This is the fixed amount for everyone. Government provided scholarships like Vivekananda Student Scholarship and other relevant scholarships are accepted.

Campus Life

4

MA is a short course but in this we had various presentations and seminars held. We published our departmental journal, celebrated Shakespeare's birthday. Other cultural events like college fest, saraswati pujo etc are also celebrated.

Admission

Classes are more regular. The college follows strict discipline. The faculty members are very nice and most importantly the college ambience is very suitable for learning. With regular classes professors here also provide relevant notes and materials for better preparation for exams compared to other colleges.

Faculty

5

There are 4 permanent professors and around 5 or 6 guest lecturers for an approx of 40-50 students. Each and every professors are equally helpful and approachable. They definitely never fail to make a student feel at home. Curriculum includes insightful texts which help in development of knowledge and builds a strong base.

Placement Experience:

Most of the placements that took place at least for the literature departments ended up with people joining educational institutes and NGOs. Very few joined corporate enterprises like Accenture. But it does provide almost a 5 LPA, if well placed. It is academically rigorous, therefore academics are weighed more than industry.

Reviewed on Nov 24, 2024(Enrolled 2024)

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible for applying for internships after the 3rd semester, and students can apply for placements only after 4th semester. Companies like Ericsson, Ernst and Young, JPMG makes visits our department for mostly analyst roles for economic and fundamental trading decisions. The highest offer made was 45LPA while the average is 7.5LPA. The median pakage is 8LPA. Almost 90% students secure placements after completing their degree since the Training and placement cell is pretty proactive in securing good company visits. I plan for investing and analyst roles in banking companies. I would sit for placements hoping for the same.
