University of Calcutta Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

On an average placement is not up to the mark. Need work more in this area. Companies do not approach because of the location as well as the college where it is not providing you the all over exposure to outer world other than academic knowledge.

The course curriculum of the college balances between theoritical knowledge and practical application. Subjects basically includes Criminal Law, Constitutional Law, etc, which provides a student with a solid foundation in essential legal principles. International Law and Intellectual Property Rights, these kind of subjects are also included, offer the flexibility to explore niche areas based on one's interest.The inclusion of internship opportunities, moot-courts in the curriculam influences many students to enroll in the program. These provides hands-on-experience to the students helping to bridge the gap theoritical concept and practical-world applications. The course is structured in a way where students are prepared for various career paths like judiciary, litigation, corporate world etc. Practical experiences, internship opportunities provides exposure to legal drafting, courtroom procedures and interaction with clients. Increase in the number of workshops on legal works, negotiation, mediation and arbitration, would prepare the students for better professional scenarios. The examinations are held at the each of end semester, with internal exams which are held periodically throughout the semester. The difficulty of the exams is moderate to high, depending on the subject. Subjects like Constitution, CrPc, CPC are often considered challenging but subjects like Family Law etc are comparitively easier for most of the students.

I'm a arts student and I like to reading political science subject. That's why I want to know everything in legal way . So I choose this way . My aim in life is to become an advocate. There many exam have to clear .

Law firms and Goenka group are the ones who hires all the students who appear for placements in the final year. ITC too have started getting students from our college and now Indus Law Firm is the one that has taken students at a package worth 8-10 lakhs.

BA.LL.B is a professional degree course. The course is actually consist of two degrees, BA and LLB. The syllabus completes a vast field of various statutes. There are various applications of the statutes in professional world. The curriculum makes forge a student into a proficient lawyer. But every coin has two sides. The syllabus covers a lot but the authority doesn't update the syllabus thus it losses it's relevancy in different places. The legal system is changing frequently to maintain it's relevancy but the syllabus doesn't update at all. There are many topics which are not so much relevant in the daily situation. Yes, it is obviously necessary to gather knowledge from depth but it becomes quite useless in the real life sceneries. The Evidence act, Interpretation of statutes, Jurisprudence are the hardest part of the course in my opinion. Some topics are quiet difficult than others but not as hard as the mentioned topics.

Eligibility begins in the final year, when many high court chambers of Kolkata comes and recruit students of our university. Besides that corporate houses like the ITC, the Sanjeev Goenka Group and others have also been a partner of college for several years now. Salary offered isn't that Impressive but the number of students getting placed is as 70% students do get placements.

The influence of this course is that brings me closer to the law and order of the society and how it works accordingly. The areas of improvement shall be the toiletries. The frequency of the exam is 7 difficulty level.

•when I was a child my dream was to be a lawyer because only lawyers can protect anybody from legal risk • I feel that I can prepare myself or the study • there should be a specific book related to Calcutta University BA LLB 5 year course syllabus because there are many books in the market that are not matching with the syllabus • they say that the timing of exam from end of semester is 6 months but we get only for to 5 months to study the subjects of a semester so for the even semester it is difficult to us to study

Law as a course has developed throughout the years and there are only a few shortcomings in the studying aspect of it. Law, in a broad sense, can be applied to almost each and every problems that citizens of India face, be it corporate law, criminal, civil law. In an even broader sense, there is Constitutional law. A major fault in the teaching and course is the excessive teaching of landmark judgements and lesser number of moot courts which in practice might land young lawyers in trouble coming from the judiciary since they're just too much aware of different landmark judgements but not the cases/context behind it. Mainly, four exams are held which concern the actual marks- Internals and Externals. First internal and external is typically held on January or February and Second internal and external during July or August.

The curriculum of law that is influenced me very well and I make my decision to prepare for law and after joining the course I much enjoying the course. The curriculum prepares me after the course I must be a good lawyer and helpful to everyone and maintain the law in the society. The course should have more moot court secessions.
