Review of Acharya Prafulla Chandra College (APCC).

Placements: There are no internships or placements. This is totally for educational purposes. One can get funding only for research purposes. One can go for higher studies like M.Sc. and PhD in this course. But one can get various jobs after B.Sc. or M.Sc.

Infrastructure: Our department is very well-equipped. Our lab has almost all the expensive equipment like spectrophotometers, autoclaves, laminar, shaker, fridges etc. Free Wi-Fi is available all around the college and hostel. The library has many kinds of useful and expensive books. No extra money is needed for library access. Classrooms are well maintained. There are 2 hostels, one for girls and another for boys. The quality of food is average. There is a canteen with good quality food. We have a basketball field, swimming pool, gym, flower garden, football ground, and parking facility in our college. There are Aquaguards on every floor for drinking water.

Faculty: In our microbiology course, the faculty members are outstanding. Most of them have doctorates or equivalent degrees. They are very friendly with students and knowledgeable. Their teaching quality is modern and useful. Lab practicals are good. Professors and lab assistants are concerned about our learning. Our course curriculum is relevant. One can prepare for other entrance exams for M.Sc. after studying this course. Internal exams are conducted.

Other: I chose this course because of my love for biology and pure science. The best thing about our course is one can get a taste of biology, physics and math. It is so industrial friendly. The campus is student-friendly. There is no ragging. There are some scholarships for students. The campus surrounding has a swimming pool, flower garden, cafeteria, football ground, gym, basketball field etc. There are two fests in a year.

The best department at APC College is microbiology.

Placements: All students wanted to pursue higher studies, so none of the students opted for placements from our course. I don't know about the highest and lowest salary packages offered. However, I think the salary offered ranges from Rs. 15,000-18,000 per month. Top recruiting companies for our course are Tata Consultancy Service, ICICI Bank, etc. TOP roles offered are lab technician, quality control and quality assurance.

Infrastructure: The campus is fully Wi-Fi enabled, and the quality of the food served is good. Canteens are available in our college premises, and there are basketball court, basketball court, football ground, badminton court and cricket ground. Hostels are available for boys and girls. Our college has a mess and medical facilities.

Faculty: Faculty members here are very good, and RA sir did M Phil, while PM mam (who is the head of the department) had a PhD and is an associate professor. NG mam is an assistant professor and PhD holder, while Rajak sir qualified M.Sc. They all are qualified, well behaved and very helpful. I think B.Sc in microbiology students should opt for higher studies.

Other: I have chosen this course because it is my dream to pursue it. The best thing about this course is lab work, and students can opt for higher studies. Scholarships are available. The campus is very neat and clean.
