It was the best five years of my life at Presidency University.
Placements: Almost 4 to 5 students got placed through campus placements. Majority of students opted for higher studies. About 4 to 5 companies visited our campus for placements. Top recruiters of our college are banks. Roles like a business analyst or data analyst were offered to students by the companies. The highest salary package offered was 7 LPA. The average salary package offered was 4.5 LPA. Summer internships were provided in Indian Statistical Institution.
Infrastructure: The college went under a lot of infrastructure and facilities development after it became a university in 2014. Top class facilities of Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms and library was provided. I didn't stay in any hostel as the college was located in my home town. The food served in the canteen is decent. The university is located behind Calcutta Medical College, where free or discounted treatment is provided if need.
Faculty: Teachers in our college were helpful, qualified and knowledgeable. Majority of them were PhD holders in their respective course. They always provide proper guidance. In my year, the course curriculum was relevant, but it was more academic-oriented rather than industry oriented. The course curriculum was updated to make it more industry oriented.
Other: I pursued this course for undergraduate and postgraduate. I was interested in it due to the exposure provided in the school. Statistics were used in every aspect of life, and so there are many opportunities in pursuing the course. The college organises fests annual and half-yearly. They also organise cultural and academical events throughout the year.
