The best institution in India for pursuing the bold ancient language Sanskrit.
Placements: As a student pursuing MA in Sanskrit at Rabindra Bharati University, I've been encouraged by the placement rates. An average of 30,000 Indian rupees a month is earned by 65-85 percent of students who find work. Employers like the Urban Planning Commission and GIS Remote Sensing frequently hire our graduates. Jobs for Sanskrit typists, lecturers, official language officers, online transcriptionists and translators are in high demand and these businesses frequently stop by our school. Although our Master's degrees are offered through distance learning, which eliminates traditional placement chances, the emphasis is on preparing us for academic careers and improving employment prospects in respectable firms, even for those who are currently employed. For students, this arrangement greatly expands their career options, particularly for those who wish to progress their careers while working.
Infrastructure: Our university provides essential infrastructure like well-maintained classrooms and hygienic washrooms. While we lack a sports area, we have access to a massive library with over 500,000 books, a separate hospital with ambulance services, free Wi-Fi throughout the campus, and a canteen with decent food options. Additionally, we have a language lab dedicated to Sanskrit linguistics, and there are three hostels nearby.
Faculty: Rabindra Bharati University offers top-notch teaching facilities. Professors Amar Kumar Chatterjee, Gopalchandra Misra, and Assistant Professor Subrata Mondal are among the lecturers who excel at demythologising complex concepts, and the assessments keep us on top of the subject matter. The curriculum includes Sanskrit language, literature, grammar, and some philosophy in addition to a few electives. In addition to assignments and quizzes that impact our final grades, we take exams every semester, including midterms and finals. About 70% of students pass the exams. There is a heavy focus on academics and a usually well-balanced atmosphere.
Other: You need over 60% number in graduation to get into this university.
