Review of Sister Nivedita University.
Placements: Almost 30% of the students from the previous batch got placed in the year 2020. The highest salary package offered is 15 LPA, the lowest salary package offered is 7 LPA, and the average salary package offered is 10 LPA. Top companies are SVF Production House, Radio Mirchi, Red FM, Anondo Bazar Protrika Newspaper, etc. Almost 90% of the students received valuable internships from the college. Moreover, all the students are provided internships, but 50% of the students did not choose to accept them. Top roles offered in our course are cameraman, photographer, video editor, scriptwriter, green screen operator, etc.
Infrastructure: Facilities are green room, Mac lab, studios, air-conditioned classrooms, Wi-Fi, canteen, cafe, playground, etc. The quality of the facilities provided is above average. Clean rooms and hallways, 24x7 water and electricity are available. Washrooms are tidy, and decent security protocols are followed. The food provided in the mess is of below-average quality. The same type of vegetarian food is dispersed among students on a daily basis. Non-vegetarian food is not allowed on the campus, so we have to order food from outside mostly.
Faculty: Teachers are well-wishers. They consist of a high qualified rank in their respective fields. Apart from the knowledge, they interact with us like friends and guide us in a distinctive manner throughout our term. I am not industry-ready as I haven't finished the course. Still, I am not afraid to do a job. The course standard is effective in every way, and I can make use of it in daily life as well. Semester exams are a bit tough as I haven't sat in the exam centre for once due to the covid situation. I am writing exams from home through an online mode. The minimum passing percentage is 40%, and more than 80% of the students pass with high grades.
Other: I have chosen this course because of the career perspective that I can explore. The experience I gather is more notable in my future. The best thing about the course is you get to use top quality gadgets, roam freely, go on adventures, record your own blogs, write whatever you suffice, etc. Things required for the betterment of our course is the DSLR standards and lens used by our college to be incremented. They make the environment more user-friendly and get rid of the ragging issues around the campus as well. Our college arranges many fests throughout the year. All the time, we have some fests to maintain the attendance and enthusiasm in the atmosphere.
