For me, it is the best college for an MBA in Kolkata, with great faculty and infrastructure.

Faculty: In my opinion, faculty here is one of the best I have seen. They are very helpful, knowledgeable, and guide students properly. They can also be friendly. They teach very well and complete the syllabus on time. This course curriculum is very relevant and makes students industry-ready. The college conducts many activities like public speaking, presentations, project work, teamwork, and also pushes students for internships. Semester exams are somewhat difficult for me.

An average college with poor placement and hostel experience.

Faculty: Most teachers were qualified and helpful, though the teaching quality varied from faculty to faculty. The course curriculum covered the basics but could have been updated to match current industry needs. Semester exams were of moderate difficulty. If students attended classes and studied regularly, passing was not very difficult.

College is average overall. The infrastructure needs improvement.

Faculty: Teachers are generally helpful and qualified, with some explaining concepts really well. The CSE curriculum is relevant but needs more industry focus. Semester exams are of moderate difficulty, and most students manage to pass, giving the college an overall decent pass percentage.

The college has become a business nowadays.

Faculty: It needs more improvement. Faculty members do talk in the regional language. The course curriculum is very old, and topics are very old, which are now not being used in real-life projects. It is very important to introduce the latest course so that students can be updated, and they focus on old technologies these days. Faculty members don't use projectors, as they use normal boards with chalk. There are no proper computers in the lab.

Average infrastructure, poor placement, and average college.

Faculty: Only a few faculty members are helpful and knowledgeable, while the rest are arrogant and unhelpful. The college follows the MAKAUT University curriculum, which is practical but needs updating. The semester exams are easy, but copy checking is unfair.
