Course Curriculum Overview

5

The course is very well designed, it's well thought and designed in order to cope with the demands of the companies outside. The course takes the students in a journey of learning both the books, the theories as well as getting on field and real life experience. Thus having a blend of both the fields, helps the course in being very relevant.

Internships Opportunities

4

Internships like, Consultancy are given, where mass comm people are asked to consult the clients on their various needs. Marketing is also provided, where people from mass comm and business studies are asked to join the marketing team of companies and work for their profit.

Placement Experience

5

you are given summer internships from semester 4, however for campus placements one must wait untill the final year, which for the new UGC batches will be semester 7 and 8. Several companies visit to hire students and take them onboard.

Fees and Financial Aid

Per semester i have to pay a fee of 66,700 and throughout the 7 semester this remains the same, however in the final semester they charge an additional 5000 for alumni membership. Yes certainly there are several scholarships based on academic merits over the past semesters and students can apply for them and get a huge deduction on their academic fees.

Campus Life

4

There are a lot of clubs or societies as they are called here - 1. Xucas - for arts and cultural activities 2. Xuss - for sports 3. Xinephile - for cinema and films 4. Xposure - for photography apart from these there's the annual fest, xavrang which is celebrated with extremely high enery by everyone.

Admission

Major reasons of me choosing this college over others are - 1. Distance, it's pretty closely located to my house and in general also it's pretty closely located to the main kolkata, newtown area. 2. The respect, Obviously being a student of st. Xavier's has a huge respect in the professional as well as social perspectives. 3. Course, the course i wanted to opt for, was being taught here in the best possible way in the entire city of Kolkata.

Faculty

5

The faculty members are all very highly qualified, some of the top professionals in their fields and with an advanced experience in both the classroom and the field work, they are some of the most educated and intellectual people to communicate with and learn from on a daily basis. There are two exams per semester, one is a mid term and another one is the end sem.

Night Life

2

As i said earlier, the college is situated in a remote area, an area which is under development, maybe in the next 5-10 years, it will have a fantastic environment around it's campus, but for now if students wants to hang out, they have to travel far to other places.

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.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I have always wanted to persue English as a career. I love studying English but not a big fan of the new curriculum by NEP that includes a lot pf irrelevant papers. The semesters are not consistent. Odd semesters usually have a lot of time like 6-8 months but even semesters barely consist of 2-3 months.

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.
