What Students Say

Likes

quality of staff, very qualified professors, huge library, ac classrooms
active campus life, huge campus, various societies

Dislikes

lack of placement and internship oppurtunities

Course Curriculum Overview

The curriculum is rigorous an all encompassing. Every Monday there is an Internal, there are 2 internals for every subject and a semester exam at the end of the semester. The course is again quite difficult and it is hard to score marks.

Class Size: 80Course Fees: INR 1000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

The course is very affordable. The first year fees is Rs. 1235( tuition: 900, admission 100, library deposit 50, sports 100, session charges 50, registration 25, health card 20). For the next two years, the fees are Rs. 950 per year including only tuition and session charges. Government scholarships available. Fee structure is same for all students.

Campus Life

There exists a lively and healthy Campus Life with multitude of clubs and societies. One can join These societies and play an active role in representing the university outside. There are three yearly fests conducted. Every department has a library. Apart from them , there is a central library. There exists a huge playground where football cricket basketball are played.

Admission

I choose this college because of it's rigorous syllabus And renowned faculty. Also the closeness from my house. It was a factor in deciding that. The admission process considers half of your board's marks and rest comes from their own examination comprising of maths and logical reasoning.

Faculty

There are many around 20 professors in the department and every class has around Eighty to ninety students. Overall macroeconomics needs better professors, but micro economics has good professors. There are professors of international demeanour also. There exists a healthy student teacher relationship. Professors are very approachable. The curriculum is in line with international standards and syllabus. It covers wide arenas of economics and is very helpful when one goes to study economics in masters level.

Interview Experience

only written test, comprising mathematics and logical reasoning. weightage of test was 50% and remaining was the boards marks. It's a simple process overall. The maths part was completely from 11 12 syllabus of +2

Night Life

Outside the university during night small cafes are always there. Apart from that from festivals and theatre , festivals take place from time to time during the night. Concerts also take place. But night life isn't exactly active there.

GO FOR IT!!

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.

Review of the college where i spend three long years and gathered every knowledge that is available there.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I used to read so many novels from my childhood and that inspired me in getting attracted to this field. We used to have the fecility of having seminar in the end of every month after compleating of each lessons. And this process helped us in true education. After every year professors from differnt parts of the country used to come for a seminer for overall groth of the students. Actually is theory teaching style is followed in the college, according to me some developments in the practical teaching can be used. Semister is held at the end of every six months and the exams are used to be moderate in nature.

Homebound Forward with Jadavpur University

I have always wanted to study in Jadavpur University in one of their literature departments since I was a kid. This was a way of achieving a tiny dream of mine. Moreover, the Comparative Literature Department is the best in all entire Asia and the first one in the country. I wanted to experience the greatness of this course and how the canons of this literature were formed here. It is also the topmost State Public University and 9th in NIRF I wanted to be a part of an institution that could be great to this extent. The admission took place on the basis of a merit-based entrance examination. The seats are limited; therefore, only the top 15 students out of almost 800-1000 who appeared for the exam were selected. This was one of my top priorities, defeating all the other options I had....Read More
