    My review of this college.
    Placements: Every year, many top job recruiters and companies visit our college for seminars, interviews, and job exams. Our college personally invites recruiters through our placement cell, and our professors make sure that we attend every interview and seminar to get a better idea about what we want to do in our future. If you want to place in a good and best, they have a placement cell where you have to register yourself to get updates about companies. Most of them are IT and management-based companies. The job profile is basically that of a salesperson. Many new companies have approached for placement.
    Infrastructure: The girls' hostel is located just at the back side of our college. It is spacious and well-maintained. The rooms are airy and well-lighted. The food is of a very standard type. There is a huge demand for hostel facilities, and it is given on a priority basis. There is a free and fair policy regarding giving hostel facilities.
    Faculty: The course is overall quite good. It has lots of practicals to increase practical knowledge. A plenty of things are taught on the projector, which gives us a digital experience. The course also consists of an industrial visit, which gives us a rough idea of how industries work. The teachers are very well-qualified and very cooperative. They are well-experienced and have a minimum M.Sc. qualification. Most of them are Ph.D. qualified. They have a very good knowledge and also make us think out of the box. They are always ready to help. Their teaching helps us to grow personally as well. We have a semester pattern, and the practical exams are held at the end of the year only. In the third year, we had university exams at the end of the year. The practicals are always good, and we felt good after leaving the labs. Exams obviously depend on one's preparations. The laboratory is always clean.

    Great place for a master's in economics.
    Placements: Quite many companies approach the placement cell. 40 to 50 students out of around 180 get placed on campus. There are some companies that have revoked promised offers. Roles mainly include data analyst and sales. One can secure a 6 LPA package if he/she is sincere throughout the course.
    Infrastructure: There is an extensive library with all required books. One can even access central library of main campus, which is huge. Classes are air conditioned, and software is taught in labs. There is a homely feeling, with a homely canteen and a wonderful vibe.
    Faculty: Teachers are best in business, with high accolades. They try their best to clear concepts and support you after class. Exams are of standard difficulty, but nothing comes out of the syllabus. It will be 2 years of gaining extensive knowledge about economics.

    The infrastructure and facilities are good.
    Placements: The placement cell was not good, and no major or high packages were offered in the college. It was still under development. Students had to reach out to companies themselves for jobs. No recruiting companies came for jobs and placements. Students participated in internships with faculty on their projects.
    Infrastructure: They provided all the basic facilities to the students, such as classrooms, restrooms, a basketball court, a ground, Wi-Fi availability, labs, a large library, medical facilities, hostel facilities, and more. The food quality available in the canteen was average and affordable for students, with a variety of options.
    Faculty: Teachers had their unique way of teaching. Their knowledge and guidance helped students learn more. My course curriculum was not relevant. There was poor management of lectures and classes, with no proper timetable. The semester exam was easy to pass with 40%.

    Average college in Kolkata.
    Placements: The placement cell of our course is active. Very few students got placed in relevant jobs. The average package was around 4-5 LPA. Top roles offered in campus placement were BPOs, and some job offers were relevant to the laboratory. Around 20% of students independently applied for internships, and some achieved that.
    Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure available for our course are just okay. The library is good, and a huge collection of books is available. The laboratory is also okay; a few instruments are not working properly. Basic medical facilities are present. Limited sports facilities are available.
    Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable in their respective domains of study. The teaching quality of our faculty members is diverse; some professors are old-style and some are modern. The difficulty of the semester examination is 3 out of 5.

    Overall, it is the best college for the M.Sc. in Botany course.
    Placements: About 92% of students are admitted to our college. Many students got jobs in many companies. The highest salary package offered is 29 LPA, and the minimum salary package offered is 9 LPA. Big companies like Novartis, Johnson & Johnson, Bayer, etc., visit the college for recruitment. Nearly 85% of students received internships. Higher-level roles offered are conservation biologist, horticulturist, etc.
    Infrastructure: The campus's antique architecture gives us a sense of antiquity, reminiscent of Royal Kolkata. Classrooms include lofty windows and overhanging fans, similar to those seen in old movies. The college features two libraries stocked with literature on a variety of subjects. All of the science departments have offices, and the institution also provides Wi-Fi. The canteen cuisine is overpriced and delicious for everyone.
    Faculty: It is a wonderful joy to announce that I have graduated with the top faculty members. They've always assisted us. Students should prepare for projects. Our teachers are always very helpful in our work. Semester tests are quite standard, and we are determined to test our faith. The pass rate is more than 55%.

    Good for studies and teachers are good.
    Placements: No higher or active placement cell was there. Students had to find out about the placements and reach out to companies. Mostly students opted for higher studies after the course. Students could join internships with the faculty and help them in their work. Final-year students got internships easily in companies.
    Infrastructure: Average infrastructure and facilities for the students included like labs, average size classrooms, an auditorium, a huge ground and court, medical rooms, labs, etc. They had a big library with all the important books. The quality of the facilities in the hostel was also above average according to their prices.
    Faculty: My course curriculum was not much relevant and it did not make students properly industry-ready because they stuck to the books and theory only. Teachers were qualified and knowledgeable. They helped us a lot. Semester exams were moderate level and easy to pass with 33%.
