Which one is better: St. Xavier's in Kolkata's economics department or Presidency University in Kolkata's economics department?
It depends on you and what your career goal is. If jobs are what you aspire to, then St. Xavier’s will be a good choice. In case you are looking for legacy, reputation, and departmental history, and you want to boast of some old-school ultra-elitism across Kolkata, Presidency is the place to be.
Presidency University is going under lots of variations when it comes to curriculum and the teaching methodology. The addition of Presidency Kolkata Economics in your CV in India is an unparalleled one.
As the Presidency University is going under transition for good. But, Xavier’s economics department still has an edge over the Presidency's department in terms of faculty and syllabus.
