What students say about University of Calcutta


Likes

  • The University of Calcutta is one of the best government-aided universities in India, with the best faculty members, where students can gather knowledge regarding their subjects.
  • At the heart of Kolkata, there is a very good environment, good faculty and laboratories, quite good placement, excellent alumni networks, and a sports department.
  • There is also a separate placement committee that invites companies and tries their best to get as many students placed as possible.
  • No, I am not interested in a loan. But a scholarship is too good for me, and I have had a scholarship for 2 years. The SC/ST scholarship was good, and other students were happy with the scholarship.
  • There were sports facilities too. They had an annual sports day. There was a great library with a sitting capacity of more than 100 students. There were three labs with a capacity of 50 students each. There was also a great hall for seminars. Additionally, there were two computer labs.
  • I have no hostel because my hometown is Kolkata. However, the hostel infrastructure is good for all the students from other states. Students are happy with the hostel and also appreciate the university hostel which is also good. I am happy with the hostel and faculties.
  • This is the best college in Kolkata and one of the best in India for food and nutrition.

Dislike

  • Unfortunately, I dislike the course structure because it is not up-to-date. For instance, our department does not teach network systems. Additionally, currently trending subjects like Arduino and IoT are not included. However, once you reach the research level, the condition is not as bad.
  • Its just M.Sc. based, so there are no jobs or placements. Although some companies come, they only hire a few students, usually one or two. Our college does not provide internships. After M.Sc., you can also pursue a Ph.D. from here.
  • Merit cum means scholarships are provided for poor and meritorious students, enabling them to receive a stipend based on their fathers income. Additionally, poor students are granted either a half or full waiver of tuition fees. Financial constraints do not hinder access to education in this system.
  • Food is served twice and is done by external agencies, but its quality and quantity are not good.
  • Negative remarks on the useless canteen and the poor communication facilities as they are extremely bad.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Many students choose to pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree because it allows them to explore their interests and develop critical thinking, analytical, and communication skills. The ideal faculty: student ratio is usually around 1:20. The qualification of the faculty in a BA program is typically high, with most faculty members holding a Ph.D. or other advanced degree in their field of expertise.

Remarks:

BA admission in Sundarban College requires 10+2 education and merit-based cutoffs. Get an application form from the website/admission office, pay the fee, and provide personal/academic details. Reservation benefits are available. Online admission processes are becoming more common.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The used to read a lot as I really love to read and English literature would a great addition to my career. The faculty is great and the quality of teaching is also nice. Although most of the classes were held online due to corona pandemic still managed it pretty well and took daily classes which helped us to complete our syllabus on time. In my batch, the number of students was between 18-19 and in the batch which got admitted after we have a student ratio of 25-30. Our college follows the CBCS system which semester wise exams under the University of Calcutta. The exams use to happen after every 6 months but our first 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th semesters were held online which was not timely as per the normal timeline.

Remarks:

The admission process for the college was very much simple. I had a very smooth experience. There is no entrance exam for this exam. The admission is done completely on class 12 marks. After the declaration of class 12 results, the college will give a notification on their website regarding the addmission. You have to apply online and fill the required details and pay the required application fee which is very much affordable. After the completion of the application process within 2 to 3 weeks the merit list will be uploaded on the college website. The selected students then get a notification for the addmission fees and then get a call for the verification process which is simple and won't be of much trouble but you have keep in mind that you have filled the application form correctly or else if the information varies with your original documents then you might get disqualified for the admission. If found disqualified your addmission fee will be refunded.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I have completed my B.Sc. on this subject and want to enhance my knowledge on this subject so I choose it. And this college is very popular and recognized. Here the faculty strength is 5 and the student's no. is 17 so this ratio is under the limit. The faculty is very cooperative and has high standards. They teach very friendly. Here the exam is semester based. Two semesters in a year. And you have to study very carefully to pass that. It seems a little hard to some students but if you study you can easily pass.

Remarks:

The admission process is very simple. Application fees are zero. I filled out the form online and got selected according to my merits score. Here the selection is mainly merit-based no such entrance or anything else. The eligibility is that you have to pass out B.Sc. with 55% marks, that's all. And there is also a reservation system everywhere.
