Life at Presidency, a student-friendly environment, offers you to excel in your life.
Placements: Last year, 6 out of 16 placement candidates got placed. Although the number of students getting placed changes year to year. Some year 16 out of 18 candidates get placed sometimes. The highest package remains about 10-12 LPA, and the lowest remains around 3.5-4 LPA. Past recruiters include Vedanta, SLB, Maheshwari Mine, Sakariya Mine, UGM, etc. An industrial internship is a part of the syllabus in the M.Sc. 3rd Semester. All the students must attend 10-14 days of industrial training at different agencies like AMD, TATA Steel, ECL, and SLB. Roles offered are Assistant Managers and Graduate Engineer Trainee (GET).
Infrastructure: Departmental and central libraries are available. The whole campus is provided with Wi-Fi. In the Geology Department, the Structural Lab, Petrographic Microscope Lab, Computer Lab, Remote Sensing Lab, and Geochemistry instruments are also available. In the boys' hostel, there is another library available. The food in the canteen and hostel is quite good and cheaper than most other places. Calcutta Medical College is nearby, so medical facilities are also available in handy. Sports are major attractions for students here. Departmental football, cricket league, university-level football, cricket, badminton, and table tennis league are organised every year. In college fests, sports weeks are organised.
Faculty: Teachers are approachable and very helpful. They are qualified and guide students really well. Teaching quality is also good. Sometimes better than IITs and NITs. Particularly, applied geology helps students to be industry-ready by organizing talks, seminars, and workshops. The pass percentage differs in different departments, although the semester exams are quite easy to pass.
Other: This course gives a direct window to be industry-ready soon after completing M.Sc. Also, the placements are there. Ph.D. is another interesting way in this Field. Field trips are essential, and they are very enjoyable. Maybe more opportunities for internships, more fields, and active coaching for GATE or NET-like competitive examinations. Scholarships are available as well. Fest are crowd engaging. Alumni connectivity is strong as well. Gives chance to excel in extracurricular activities.

Review of Presidency University, Kolkata.
Placements: About 10% of the students from our course got placed. Out of a class of 21 students, about 12 students opted to pursue a PhD, while 3 students cracked the GSI exam conducted by UPSC. The average salary package offered is 7 LPA. The top recruiter for our course is Vedanta. About 3 students secured a PhD in foreign universities, and industrial training is mandatory in the master's course. Major companies which offer training include ONGC, Oil India Limited, Coal India, SAIL, Tata Steel, etc.
Infrastructure: Every department has a dedicated Wi-Fi facility. There are departmental libraries, along with a central science library and a central arts library. Every classroom is air-conditioned and has smart classroom facilities. The quality of the facilities provided in the hostel is good. The hostel is better than most of the hostels in Kolkata. There are good cricket and football practice facilities.
Faculty: The geology department is one of the best in India. Most of the students give more emphasis on research than jobs. The research environment here is excellent with stellar laboratory facilities. There are facilities include SEM, XRF, XRD, mass spectrometer, etc.
Other: I have chosen this course because there are fieldworks and esteemed faculty members. As of now, there is no need for improvement in our course. But some of the faculty members are on the verge of retirement, so their replacement is necessary. Our college organises 3 major cultural fests and events. Means-cum-merit scholarships are provided here, and the campus is located near metro stations and major buses.
