The best science college in Kolkata.
Placements: It's a government college. So, you will not get any placements from the college authority. You have to attend competitive exams for a great job. You will get your degree like B.Sc, M.Sc, BA, MA from this institution. If you see alumni, you will see that most of our senior brothers & sisters are in great positions now such as UPSC, WBCS, NET & much more.
Infrastructure: In my department (zoology), all the classrooms are with fully air-conditioned. Wi-Fi is also available, but only for teachers. Projectors are also available in all classrooms. The lab is also pretty good. The library is also available. We are able to take books from the college library & departmental library with no issues. The college campus has a badminton court, a boys common room, gym, staff canteen, students canteen, girls common room & a library.
Faculty: You can learn so many subjects here like zoology, botany, physics, chemistry, microbiology, mathematics, statistics, Bengali, Urdu, English. In zoology department, you can complete your M.Sc & PhD degree also. All the teachers are well educated & highly ranked. This is the best science college in Kolkata, 2016 & 17.

I am totally happy studying in this college. There is no dissatisfaction.
Placements: Almost 88% of the students get placed. The highest salary offered was Rs. 66,000 per month. The lowest salary offered was Rs. 25,000 per month. The average salary offered was Rs. 33,000 per month. Tata, ITC, Iconma, are the top recruiters. Roles of a junior recruiter are offered. The highest salary package offered was 1.43 Lacs per month. The lowest salary package offered was Rs. 43,000 per month. The average salary offered was about Rs. 60,000 per month. Almost 90% of the students got internships in Bengal Zoological Survey.
Infrastructure: There is no Wi-Fi facility. There are the best labs in Kolkata. Classrooms are decent. The teaching staff members and lab assistants have outstanding behaviour. The library is full of books as per your requirement. Sports like football, cricket, badminton, tennis, table tennis, carrom, chess and many more are available here. The college provides 24x7 first aid facilities. The food served in the canteen is decent. There is no hostel available, bot there are a lot of mess and PGs available at the walking distance with the highest price of Rs. 16,000 per month as well as available at Rs. 500 per month.
Faculty: Teachers here are really helpful, and the maximum number of teachers are PhD holders. The teaching quality is far better than any other colleges. You don't have to study at home if you attend the classes regularly. The course curriculum is relevant, and it doesn't make the students industry-ready.
Other: The best thing was the location and the teachers of the college. Many internationally known people have passed out from this college. There is nothing to improve. It is just a perfect one. Fest and freshers are held every year from colleges fund. There is no need to pay extra money. Moreover, sports championship in winter is conducted every year. Scholarships are not available by the college. You can apply from outside, and the principal will surely grant it.
