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:

The curriculum provides a comprehensive retrospective of literature from the Old English period to Modern period, while also including English works by Indian authors to demonstrate the diversity and evolution of English literature over the years. The current curriculum I believe requires more seminars and lectures from guest faculties on contemporary research and topics.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum and faculty members are good. I chose this because English is my favourite subject.Also it you study English there are lots of opportunities present here. Student ratio is 100-120 student per department.There are 26 courses available The faculty is very standard.Teaching Method is very good because attendence is strictly followed by our college.One of the reasons teachers are committed to us .They try their level best to teach us in short time.There are projectors also used in our classes.Overall it is satisfactory. Every term exam happens in 6 months. It is very difficult to pass those exams.As our college is under VIDYASAGAR UNIVERSITY,so questions are set by them.Thats why exams are very difficult to pass.

I wanted to explore the CS stream from the beginning so I joined this program. The faculty: student ratio in BA is good and is around 1:7. All the teachers are well equipped and have complete knowledge of the subjects they are teaching. The exams were difficult as compared to the SPPU endsem exams, but that is expected from a college of such repute.
