Excellent faculty, good placements, and an ideal for botany aspirants.
Placements: Around 60 percent of students from my batch are placed in various companies. The highest salary package offered by Biocon is 6.5 LPA. The average salary package offered is 4.5 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 3.5 LPA.
Infrastructure: Maulana Azad College, Kolkata, provides excellent facilities and infrastructure for its students. For the Botany department, the facilities include well-equipped laboratories with modern instruments and equipment. Classrooms are spacious with smartboards and Wi-Fi connectivity. There is a vast library with a wide collection of books, journals, and e-resources. We also have a botanical garden for practical studies and research.Hostel facilities are available including clean and spacious rooms with attached bathrooms. There is a hygienic mess and canteen facilities with a variety of food options. Medical facilities are available, with a college hospital and a tie-up with nearby hospitals. There are sports and games facilities, including a playground, gymnasium, and indoor games room.
Faculty: Teachers are knowledgeable and helpful. Their teaching quality is excellent. Curriculum is relevant and industry-oriented. Semester exams are moderately difficult. Pass percentage is around 89-90 percent. Overall, a well-rounded Botany course prepares students for careers and higher studies.
Other: I chose Botany because of my fascination with plants and their importance in our ecosystem. I wanted to explore the intricacies of plant biology and contribute to the field of botanical research. The best things about my course are the hands-on experience in laboratories, the opportunity to work on research projects, and the expertise of the faculty members. Scope for Improvement: I wish there were more industrial collaborations and internship opportunities to provide students with practical experience in the field. Additionally, updating the curriculum to include recent advancements in plant biotechnology and genomics would enhance the course.

Infrastructure was little bit good, as the college was present at the centre of Kolkata.
Placements: I just enjoy my college life like other common students. My faculty members and my friends were very good and helpful. They were always supported me in my every harsh situations that I faced in my college life. As I mentioned, my course was B.Sc. Botany, every year from our department, an excursion was held but due to pandemic it was not done. Placements were little bit good because many students at our college got very good jobs in both government and non-government organisation.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure was little bit good, because the building of our college was old but aesthetic. It was an Islamic college so, a mosque was present inside our college which was very helpful to Muslim students. Our college had hostels for both men and female students but there was no food supply inside the hostel.
Faculty: Faculty members were very good and helpful. They show their kindness to all of us. Exams were held in semester system as per the guidance of UGC. Every year 2 semester exams were held. Exams were held in two series- theories and practicals. There was only 6 numbers semesters which students have to clear in 3 years. No online courses were conducted by our college. As it was a government college, seats of courses were also very minimum like 20-40 (it varies as per the course you choose for you higher study).

Overall, I am satisfied with the college.
Placements: 60% of students got placed in my course. There are no companies because this is just a Hons degree. There are no roles. The package is not offered because students do M.Sc. after B.Sc. Some students go for government jobs. Students did not get internships from my course in companies.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available. It has a good connection. The lab is too good but there is some lack of instruments. Microscopes are not good though AC classrooms are available. The library is fully AC and good for study 2. The hostel is old. It has a historical hostel. Rooms are good. There is a proper water connection. There is no canteen. Indoor games are available. There is a medical hospital. It is 10 minutes far away from the hostel.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. Everyone is calm. They are very experienced teachers. Practical classes are amazing with teachers. They are very friendly. Sometimes, they act as a guardian. There is a moderate syllabus. The pass percentage is 50%.
Other: Botany is my favourite subject, so I chose it. Practical classes are held. Saraswati Puja, Holi Utsav, all other programs, and annual sports activities are held.

If you are looking for a college and not have high hopes about placements.
Placements: No placements. Our college does not provide placements. It does not have good infrastructure. Most of the students opt for placements outside the college in companies like PWC and TCS. To sum up good for education. Not too good for placements. My advice. Don't join the college. Placements and education is much better outside Kolkata.
Infrastructure: The classrooms are quite spacious. Equipped with chalk and duster. They have microphones and speakers too in the classrooms. There is a hall for functions such as fresher and fest. Students' activity rooms are equipped with TT boards and carrom tables. Most of the students hang out here. There are many labs. Especially for each department.
Faculty: The course curriculum is outstanding. It follows the Calcutta University syllabus. The faculty members are very knowledgeable and helpful. They also provide their mail Ids so you can catch up with them later on and clear your doubts. Tests taken by the faculty members are always scrutinized thoroughly.
