A well-rounded college experience - Faculty, infrastructure, and beyond.

Faculty: Professors of this university are highly qualified and employ a unique teaching method. They use PPTs, provide study materials for the topics and the course, and help the students understand the concepts in a better way. Teachers are very helpful here. The course curriculum is according to the NEP and is relevant for the students in the current scenario. The semester exams are not so tough that the students will fail. The question papers are quite standardized but are not difficult.

Absolutely recommend this one.

Faculty: Teachers are extremely helpful. If you face any problems, there are mentors to help you out. Teaching is at a 4.5 level, but I recommend it as it is a home university. The exam patterns and marking schemes are much easier than in other universities.

The exact place you need to grow as an artist as well as a human being.

Faculty: The professors are engaging and helpful both with practicals and theories. The curriculum is versatile and relevant for getting into the world of performing arts as a working professional be it a performer or an academician. Semester exams are not that hard if class notes are followed correctly. The pass rate is above 95%.

Good faculty, really good infrastructure, best campus life.

Faculty: The teachers are helpful, more than qualified, and knowledgeable. Most professors have done their Ph.D. and post-doctorate from foreign universities. The teaching quality is very good, with each professor solving any problems when required. The course curriculum is designed in a way that students get a good knowledge of whether they want to pursue research or even if they want to go into applied fields. It also makes the students ready for various competitive exams. Semester exams are a bit diff...

One of the most prestigious colleges in Kolkata, Presidency University, College Street.

Faculty: The teachers here are really helpful and qualified, with doctorates. The course curriculum is absolutely relevant. The semester exams may seem a bit difficult since you just got into new surroundings like college, but everything will help you to better yourself. The end-semester exams are taken out of 70 marks, and according to me, they are moderate.

One of the best colleges in Kolkata, West Bengal. Fantastic faculty infrastructure and facilities.

Faculty: Every teacher is highly qualified. I will give an example: in our department, every teacher has done a PhD from an IIT or IISER. They are very helpful. We don't need outside tuition; lectures are enough. There are computer labs for 30 to 40 people in each department. The chemistry department has around 5 labs and personal workstations for scholars, too. The syllabus is fully CBCS-based and industry-ready. Exams are good enough. A 7.5 CGPA is good if you can get it.

Our college has good faculty members, and it is worth studying.

Faculty: Professors in our department are a blessing to us. They are not only adept in their areas but also pay attention to every single query of ours. Texts are well chosen. They include important texts and theories of literature for English honours students. It would be great if Jane Austen were included in our syllabus as well. Exams are quite good. The pass percentage in our department is 98%. The overall pass percentage in the university is 85%.

Dissatisfied with the faculty and the overall facilities.

Faculty: The current course curriculum is valuable for our future prospects; however, the teaching quality does not align with the updated syllabus. It is recommended to appoint new, well-qualified teachers. While the semester exams are designed to challenge and enhance students' knowledge, it appears that grades are impacted by interactions with professors rather than academic merit. It is important to maintain respectful behaviour towards all faculty members, even in situations of mistreatment. As per ...
