Review of Calcutta University.
Placements: As Masters is a part of the general course, our university doesn't actually provide placements. But, getting a chance to study here, the students are exposed to a wide variety of professions and job opportunities for like editorial jobs, content writing or freelancer for a newspaper. After acquiring a degree from here, students can apply for part-time lectures to esteemed colleges here. There are a lot of people from my batch, almost 20%, who have gone to editorial jobs right after leaving university. Another large half have opted for freelancing profile.
Infrastructure: The university is more than 150 years old, but it has left no stones unturned when it comes to the infrastructure. Classrooms are well furnished and are designed to accommodate more than 150 students together. The corridors are tile floored, and recently the classrooms are being renovated to give it a full modern outlook. The library is the most attractive part of the campus. The central library of the university is famous for being almost several storied and is the home of more than a thousand books. The university library lets the students use the computer to log in to various educational websites to access and read various articles. The canteen is one of the best places on the campus. As it provides quality food at the lowest prices, and the decor of the canteen is so photogenic that it attracts people.
Faculty: Faculty members in our university are one of the best in our city. Many renowned scholars adorn the post of the professors and impart their valuable knowledge to us. Our professors are renowned scholars who have acquired degrees from both foreign and native universities and have published many books on their name. They have created an amazing, friendly and co operative atmosphere of leading, which encourages to bring out the best from students.

The review of the Calcutta University.
Placements: It is a good university in West Bengal but needs more placements. There is no placement in the language group, and also, there is no placement in the literature. Also, the Calcutta University doesn't have any link with any group, company, industry or international job platforms. You can only get your education and degree here.
Infrastructure: There are facilities like Wi-Fi, labs, classroom, library, sports and Indoor and outdoor games. There is also an internet facility for group study and Gps navigation. Everything is good here. You can also find parks, love spot, personal meeting place and many such places. It is one of the best university but needs more up-gradation.
Faculty: The faculty here is helpful, but not in the examination. During the exams, they become professional. You can expect good marks but don't forget the otherwise. It is good, but not worthy as expected. They will be funny, fantastic, qualified and also overqualified, as they are simultaneously helpful and knowledgeable with a good character.
