Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How much salary can I earn having a BA in English degree in India?

I assume you're a fresher in the industry. Your degree does not decide how much money you'll earn. It's the skills and potential an employer seeks in a candidate.

Though graduates in India generally get a fresher's package of around INR 3 - 5 LPA in any industry, if you have extraordinary skills, talent, or industry-relevant experience, you can get your desired package as well.

Absolute gem of a college in Calicut. Welcoming and friendly faculty members. Great infrastructure.

Placements: As Malabar Christian College (MCC) is an arts college, there wasn't any direct placement from the college itself. The placements are only done when external companies show interest in hiring young minds. Even though they do interviews in college, the placements have been relatively low.

Infrastructure: For a college within a limited space within the heart of the Calicut town, the college is very highly built. The college has a separate two-story library building, which will be inaugurated in the coming year. Every class is equipped with projectors, fans, lights, and a common laptop. Wi-Fi is also available commonly in each department. MCC doesn't have any hostels under their name, but many rooms and PG are available. Getting a place to stay in Calicut won't be a hassle.

Faculty: MCC has always been blessed with great faculty members, and the college is well known around the district for its teaching quality. And the curriculum that comes under the Calcicut University is very relevant and is valued as the best curriculum among any universities in Kerala. MCC also provides German as a second language, which is not available in any other colleges in Kerala. The difficult semester exams are a bit above average standards, but all in all, it's worth the hassle. Pass percentage is 35%.

Other: I chose the course solely based on my liking for teaching, and it's been enjoyable so far. The campus is known for its events and setup. The college has its own fest called MCC Carnival, and on every special occasion, the college union hosts relatively large programs. MCC is also well known for its dominance in sports such as boxing, Kabaddi, cricket, and rugby. The management and union also support sports activities.

Offers great faculty and campus life, placements vary from year to year.

Placements: As it is not a professional course there are not a lot of direct placement options. But there are some companies which look for young and talented candidates with good communication skills but them approaching our college depends on the vacancies which are not always many. Though there are sources which says that jobs like translator, journalist, relations officer and so on after B.A. in functional English it is necessary to specialise or take up other courses after the degree to get placed in such jobs. There are no companies offering internship for students from the course at the moment but we've been informed that with the covid situation calming down more companies will approach the institution.

Infrastructure: The institution has a library that is open from 9:30am to 3:30pm. The library is well organised and has a good collection of books from all fields and genres. All classrooms in the department has projectors and are smart classrooms. College doesn't provide hostel facility. There are lot of private hostels, rooms and options of homestay around the college as the college is in the centre of the city. The canteen isn't the best but there are many good cafes and restaurants within walkable distance from the institution and there are private messes which provide food to students at very low prices. There's no medical room but first aid facilities are available and as for sports and games, the college has cricket football and kabbadi teams in college out of which the kabbadi team won the last championship.

Faculty: Faculty of the department is the best in the city. There are professors with doctorates and some of them are doing their doctorates. They are knowledge and maintain good relationships with students. They are easy to approach and are very reliable. The course is definitely better than English . literature if you are not into English . history and literature and are looking for a more practical side to English. The subjects provided in the course make the students industry ready than any other course with papers like translation, communication, business English . and so on. Exams are conducted by the university and the scale of difficulty varies from year to year. Pass percentage is above 85 percent.

Other: I wasn't really interested in studying history of English . and literature from ages ago and wanted to focus more on the current and future side of English . The course preps students to opt for a variety of courses afterwards like translation studies, journalism etc. The drawback I found was that not many people are aware of the course and there are not a lot of colleges offering it. So when you say you're studying this course people don't seem to understand. And it would really be great if the exams were conducted on time and results came faster. The college hosts a lot of events with MCC Carnival being the best if all. It's 3 day event with artists from throughout the country performing and a lot of other interesting shows. The campus is fairly friendly. The buildings are as old as they were built by the British some 200 years ago but there are new blocks. The old block has a beautiful vintage vibe which no other institution could offer. The institution conducts a lot of quizzes, seminars, discussions and other programs at inter and intra collegiate level. College doesn't provide scholarship.
