What you must know about Presidency University, Kolkata before stepping in.
Placements: I joined Presidency University in 2018 in the department of Bengali for graduation. The placement cell of the university has been inactive for quite a long time now. I have not seen any company to come to our campus for placement. So the condition of the placement is very poor. So is the condition of getting internship from the course I am pursuing. Students can try themselves to get a part-time or full-time job. But it is very rare to see companies to come and recruit employees from our campus.
Infrastructure: Presidency University provides a very traditional and standard department for B.A. In Bengali. Other departments are also doing very well. Approximately 35 students can participate in a classroom in more or less every department. No commerce courses are available here. Departments are big enough, so are the classrooms. Some of those are even air-conditioned. Every department has their own library and computer classrooms to provide the best facilities to the students. Every student has their own secured Wi-Fi connection. Labs are also of excellent qualities. There are two hostels for male and female students respectively. Boys hostel is beside the campus but Girls hostel is at Salt Lake. Girl’s hostel provides buses for the female students for the travel. Both the hostels are pretty good and happening with adequate food, medical, water supplying and workout facilities. Students have to pay a minimum amount for the hostel.
Faculty: Presidency University has the best of the professors for each department. Most of them are very helpful to their students. Also, they are all very sincere while teaching something. Exams are semester based. Below 5 CGPA, one is considered as failed. The course I am pursuing, has been relevant for years and will be so in future as well. We all know how powerful literature is. It helps to improve communication and creative skills.
