4Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Good college for distance learning.

Placements: In Bengal, postgraduates are not eligible for any placements. The college lacks dedicated placement teachers for our course. This course is a degree course, and you can pursue a Ph.D. Placements are more promising in job-oriented courses. Bengal is now an academic course, so you shouldn't blame the institute.

Infrastructure: Being an open university, our college does not have hostel facilities. The campus building is spacious and beautifully designed. Despite the lack of high-speed Wi-Fi, the food is of a higher caliber than other hostels. Students must manage all aspects, leaving little room for error. It is close to the hospital and food plaza - just two minutes away.

Faculty: The teachers are very competent and very helpful, and we are pleased with their support. They have a lot of knowledge and help us acquire different knowledge from all fields. They help us solve real challenges that arise in our daily lives during this program. So, the faculty members have no problem.

NSOU's Bengal department was very good.

Placements: About 60% of the students in my course got good placements. The highest post offered in this course is communication manager, and the minimum can be a private school teacher. Indian Oil and Sonalika have offered our classmates jobs. In the end, it is a great course to be a successful person.

Infrastructure: There are many smart classrooms with audio-visual study materials, labs, libraries, and playgrounds. We have hostel facilities and a canteen on campus. You can feel the freshness because it is surrounded by a long, cultivated field and many trees. I like the area very much.

Faculty: The institute is really very good in terms of study and learning processes. It is also very good for rural climates. The teachers are very helpful and are always eager and excited to teach the students. They teach us modern techniques and spend extra time with us. The course curriculum is relevant, and it prepares students for industrial work.

Good college and facilities.

Placements: About 60% of students are placed in each course. The highest package goes up to 7 lacs per annum, and the lowest package is 2 LPA. Tata, L&T, and Ashok Leyland are some of the top employers. 70% of students get internships from here every year. Roles given to school teachers, college teachers, and others.

Infrastructure: All facilities, like Wi-Fi, a lab, etc., are available in this college. Hostel facilities are very nice. Food quality is very good and healthy. The canteen and food course offer good-quality food at a good price. Games like football and cricket can also be played at annual sports events.

Faculty: There are sufficient faculty members for all courses. They are very friendly. They are always available for us. They are kind and considerate. Apart from academic studies, we can learn social responsibility by spending time with them. Our principal, sir, is very kind.

I love this college but the exam system should be faster.

Placements: If you are looking for placement, then our college is not for you. There are no professional courses, so the placement opportunities in our colleges are very limited. However, since the fee is so low, you probably won't regret it. Finally, you have to apply for the job.

Infrastructure: Our college infrastructure has everything. The classrooms are clean. The canteen is hygienic and the library has a wide collection of books. However, Wi-Fi is still not provided to us. There is no hostel yet and recently there has been a demand for a girls hostel. We also need a proper sports room.

Faculty: Our college teachers are well qualified and knowledgeable. They were very helpful as well. The courses are very structured, and the semester exams are moderately difficult. Seniors are also helpful, giving proper guidance in every field. Courses are relevant as long as you are looking for knowledge in a specific field (and not a job). .
