It's the best college for this course.

Placements: 50% of students are placed in my course. The highest package is 40,000 rupees, the average package is 35,000 rupees, and the lowest package is 30,000 rupees in my course. My course is recruited by top companies, such as TCS, Wipro, etc. 20 percent of students got an internship from my course, and at TCS. In my course, the top role is computer operator.

It's morning college, so if you don't mind walking up and going to a class at 6:15 AM.

Placements: The college does not provide any placement opportunities. We are told that the college used to provide us with internship posts last semester, but since most of the students did not take up the opportunity, they have stopped providing the internship option altogether. No assistance in placements at all.

It is good for a graduate degree. Improvement in theory classes and placements is needed.

Placements: In my course, many students got placed. The placement percentage was very low, and there were hardly any companies visiting our campus for recruitment. No big or well-known recruiting companies came, and there were no proper placement drives organized. As a result, students did not get good opportunities or specific roles through college placement. Most of us had to look for jobs or internships on our own outside the campus.

Good college for Microbiology.

Placements: Around 20% of students were placed from our department. As it's a government college, we should not expect placement. Internships were provided in the college's own internet radio station, Radio Kolkata.org. From there, approximately a student can earn 3k. The top role I got in my course was working as a program editor.
