Review of St. Xavier's College, Mumbai.

Placements: The college has a placement cell where students need to register. Companies visit the college to conduct interviews. The college does not provide internships. Depending on the course, the salary packages offered by the companies vary. We have prominent companies like Google and others coming to our college for placements, but it's primarily for final-year students.

Infrastructure: I chose botany for my M.Sc. because it's my favorite subject. The geology faculty members at this college are outstanding and have great knowledge. All professors are well-qualified, and their teaching methods are excellent. Term exams were conducted on time and were easy to pass due to thorough preparation. There is no hostel facility at the college as it is situated in a prime location in Jabalpur, where many coaching classes and affordable hotels and PG accommodations are available at economical rates that are hard to find elsewhere.

Faculty: The course covers all the essential aspects needed for industry purposes. There are two Continuous Internal Assessments (CIAs) and one end-semester exam. The first CIA is written, while the second involves objective-type questions, projects, or presentations. The end-semester exam totals 60 marks, and students need to obtain a combined total of 40 marks to pass the subject in that semester. The faculty at the college are experts in their respective fields, most holding doctorate degrees. They are always helpful and ready to answer any questions when asked.

St. Xaviers- not just a college a way of life!

The placement cell has many seminars and contacts companies to visit the college. Companies like Tata Consultancy, CyberTech visit the college.

Infrastructure: The college was built 149 years ago so it gives that historic feel. Joispot Wi-Fi is available in the canteen. The college has huge labs for the Science stream which are well-equipped with modern facilities. Size of classrooms vary in size but most can easily fit 50-60 students with the biggest able to seat 130 students. There are two audiovisual rooms that can seat 120-150 people. The food in the canteen contains a Chinese counter, frankie and shawarma counter, chaat counter, drinks counter and local Indian preparations. The price range is reasonable for the quantity of food.

Faculty: Most of the professors are professionals in their field with most of them having a doctorate degree in their subject. Classrooms are equipped with projector facilities which are used very often by professors to teach. Chalk and talk is another method widely used. Fieldworks and industry visits are carried out to give students necessary exposure in their field. Curriculum is well spread with the first year consisting of basics of the subjects. There are many combinations of subjects offered under the arts and Science stream.

Other: There are many events and fear organised by each department. The main college fest- MALHAR occurs every August which has a workforce of more than 1000 students.

It is an amazing college. Good faculty, satisfied teaching and superb infrastructure are present.

Placements: No major companies are coming for placement, but you can get a job through the help of professors or else you can apply directly to the companies according to the vacancy. The college mainly focuses more on competitive exam rather than placement (I am talking about my course, but other courses have placements).

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is excellent. All the labs are there with all the needed equipment. There is a small auditorium, basketball ground, volleyball ground, gymnasium, badminton ground and table tennis room etc. are there. This college is most famous for shooting advertisements and films.

Faculty: There are many courses in all the streams (science, arts and commerce). They also have a junior college, and even they provide bachelor and master degree in several courses. Teachers and faculty are very good and helpful. You can learn practical knowledge and also this college is very good for extra-curricular activities.

Other: Malhar festival is among India's top 10 college fests. Other fests are also present like Janfest. No fest is conducted for each department.
