Really good and encouraging about the extracurricular activities.

Placements: So my course is Philosophy Honours. It's a four-year course. Since it is not a professional course, there is no such scope for placements and recruitments. There are good internship opportunities if you can and are up for it. But you will to maintain proper attendance and a proper interaction with your professors.

Infrastructure: Our college is famous for its sports department. The ex-captain of the Indian football team, Sunil Chetri, is our alumni, so it has a good football team and overall encourages sports very much. It has its own casual games room for students to chill and play games like table tennis, carrom, etc. And since it is air-conditioned, it is a popular spot for students to chill. The canteen food is also good. The main building has traditional old classrooms, but the Annex Building and the IT building have centrally air-conditioned rooms and modern-day equipment like projectors, smart boards, etc. The library smells like old books. Well, it is like a museum. An air-conditioned museum. Labs are okay, not bad, but not that great too.

Faculty: Teaching quality was above average, no complaints about the faculty. Respect your teacher no matter how little they teach. Well, as it is not a professional course, not much can be said about it in a professional sense. But the curriculum is as per Calcutta University, which is pretty good. Moderate to high-level difficult exams.

Other: I didn't choose this course; it chose me. The best thing about my course is that it is my course. More pretty girls in my course would be a great thing to wish for. Very good campus crowd. Right beside Jatin Das Park metro station, so top-level connectivity and surroundings. Scholarships are given out based on merit, rank, and reservations. As I said, particularly good in the extracurricular section, our college is.

Asutosh college is the best Government College in South Kolkata.

Placements: In the philosophy department, the college is not providing placements because the philosophy subject is not a technical orientation subject, so there are no internships or placements. In other subjects, placements are average, and they are also providing some internships in other subjects.

Infrastructure: The college has many labs and the classrooms are fully air-conditioned. There are also three libraries in that college but the college doesn't have any hostel facilities. The infrastructure is good enough. The college have a canteen, a medical facility, and a sports facility.

Faculty: The teachers are well qualified; they all have Ph.D. degrees and they are teaching in a very effective manner. They teach theory-based topics in a practical way so that everybody understands the topic in an easy way. The philosophy degree is a 4-year Bachelor of Arts degree so this is not an industry-based program. The programme is based on a semester exam affiliated with Calcutta University, and the passing percentage is 23% to qualify for the semester.

Other: Asutosh College is found in Hajra, Kolkata. Asutosh College is one of the best Government College in south Kolkata. So they charge a minimum fee and give maximum results of classroom campus, etc. They provided mini-events for farewells and freshers. Because of the college government, the state government provides many scholarships, like the Swami Vivekananda merit scholarship and the college also provides some financial aid students.
