Course Curriculum Overview

3

I chose Geography Bsc hons, because, for one, I like the subject. Second I think there's plenty of scopes in this subject since it's not very popular yet and can be picked because of job availability. This subject line, is not crowded yet. Although I thought that there would be a little less competition than that I'm facing in real world. The competition level amongst the few students are comparatively higher than I thought of. There should be probably, in my opinion more field surveys, in nearby places if not far, to extend the practicality of the subject because it's easier to understand that way. And probably it's easier to teach with live examples as well. The course even though having a good career scope is not that easy to grasp at all. Especially the practicals require a lot of patience. I barely finish my practical sheets before the exam timings, so according to me that place is a little difficult.

Fees and Financial Aid

per year for three year multidisciplinary course. Other than that the exam charges are different. The admission fees I paid we're 1900 rupees, the registration fees were 500 After that the semester fees differ from 2200-2700 for Geography bsc hons. The Scholarship program is run by the college which provides for 12000 rupees per semister

Campus Life

3

There's one annual freshers in the college and one fest. I think this college can use more extracurricular and programs in order to encourage engagement. The infrastructure is vast and there is no space problem. There's annual sports per year as well. The College has only one club, who has the general secratary as the head for the management group. I haven't seen any cultural clubs and I think it is needed (dance club singinging club artistic club etc). The campus life has not been that great since there's no many place to interact to. But it's decent. The library also has a range of books , mainly study books of the courses are available along with some other story books. There's frequent educational programs to engage students into.

Admission

I applied to Surendranath Women's college, Vidyasagar College, Gokhale Memorial and Acharya Prafulla Chandra College. Amongst that I chose this college because of the NAAC A grade rating and along with the factory that the college is very near to my place. I got accepted into the other colleges but this seemed like an easier approach to me , because along with my course, which is very time consuming I'd rather have a college near my place. The admission process was not that difficult. I applied on the online portal, uploaded the documents. Saw my name on the list and went for the admission procedure on the nearest cyber cafe. As I was done with the documents and payment I went to the college for a stamp and there I was granted my admission. The cutoff marks were above 60% for my course and of course in higher secondary.

Faculty

4

I have not interacted with many faculties , since it's just the second year of my college. But my faculty is quite approachable but the engagement ratio needs to improve a bit. Maybe a bit more friendly aspect would help. I really liked the Political Science faculty since they are very friendly and approachable. The others of some that I liked are Journalist and Education faculty. There's usually two exams , internal and external. Internal taken by the colleges and external, by the university. The internal marks are not biased and carefully given according to the performance as well. Each internal exam has 50 marks of own.
